Abstract:
A panel cell for detecting anti-HNA antibody is disclosed. The panel cell is obtained by introducing a DNA coding for an HNA antigen corresponding to the anti-HNA antibody into a cell so as to enable the expression of the DNA under the condition for use in the detection procedure, wherein the cell for DNA introduction exhibits no detectable reaction with anti-HLA-ABC antibody, anti-HLA-DR antibody, anti-HLA-DQ antibody, anti-HLA-DP antibody, anti-HNA-1 antibody, anti-HNA-2a antibody, anti-HNA-3a antibody, anti-HNA-4 antibody, anti-HNA-5 antibody, and serum from normal subject, in the detection procedure. The panel cell allows accurate and rapid detection of granulocyte antibody.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of the compound of the formula ##STR1## comprising dimerizing norbornadiene in the presence of N-methylpiperidine and a combined catalyst of (1,5-cyclooctadiene)(1,3,5-cyclooctatriene)-ruthenium and N,N-dimethylacrylamide.
Abstract:
An improved wheelbarrow is disclosed, comprising a wheel, a tray, a pair of handles, and a front guard, the improvement being in the handles and the front guard, in that each handle is provided with a roundish handlegrip including a first grip, round grip portion and second grip to facilitate an easier and safer forward dumping of load without switching handgrips, and in that the front guard facilitates a stabler forward dumping of load. The front guard may comprise at least one bar portion in parallel to the wheel axis or a curved plate. The front guard may alternatively comprise a pair of bar portions extending along the circumference of the wheel.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for producing .alpha., .beta.-unsaturated alcohol, which uses unsaturated aldehyde as a starting material, and in which only the aldehyde group in the unsaturated aldehyde is selectively hydrogenated by hydrogen transfer reaction, while the carbon-carbon double bond is left as it is. The method is characterized by using a catalyst which contains at least one oxide selected from the group consisting of oxides of yttrium, lanthanum, praseodymium, neodymium and samarium, as a main active ingredient. The catalysts exhibit high activity and selectivity, as well as a long life span.
Abstract:
A resin used for magnetic recording media, comprising a vinyl chloride copolymer containing vinyl monomers with hydroxyl groups and vinyl monomers with quaternary ammonium salt groups as component units. The resin is made by a method which comprises polymerizing an organic solvent solution containing vinyl chloride, vinyl monomers with hydroxyl groups and vinyl monomers with quaternary ammonium salt groups in a reacting apparatus to thereby precipitate a vinyl chloride copolymer, the interior surface of said reacting apparatus, which comes into contact with said organic solvent solution being coated with a fluororesin.
