Abstract:
The present invention is a sensor for detecting a microorganism, which is provided with a detection unit equipped with a detection electrode and a polymer layer, wherein the polymer layer is arranged on the detection electrode and is provided with a template having a three-dimensional structure complementary to a three-dimensional structure of a microorganism to be detected. The sensor detects a microorganism on the basis of the captured state of the microorganism onto the template. The polymer layer is formed by a manufacturing method including a polymerization step of polymerizing a monomer in the presence of the microorganism to be detected to form a polymer layer having the microorganism incorporated therein on the detection electrode, and a disruption step of bringing at least a part of the microorganism incorporated in the polymer layer into contact with a solution containing a lytic enzyme to disrupt the microorganism.
Abstract:
An optical fiber (1) includes (i) an inner core (111) whose refractive index distribution has an α profile, (ii) an outer core (112) which surrounds the inner core (111), and (iii) a clad (12) which surrounds the outer core (112). In the optical fiber (1), Rd is set to not less than 0.15, where Rd is a ratio of a refractive index difference between the outer core (112) and the clad (12) to a refractive index difference between a center part of the inner core (111) and the clad (12).
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a novel method for producing cereulide and a derivative thereof; an intermediate for cereulide; and a novel cereulide derivative. A novel didepsipeptide, a novel tetradepsipeptide, a novel octadepsipeptide and a novel dodecadepsipeptide are prepared. A linear precursor of cereulide or a derivative thereof, which is composed of any one of the novel depsipeptides, is cyclized by forming an intramolecular amide bond.

Abstract:
Provided is a novel material used to introduce an exogenous substance into cells. Also provided is a method for introducing an exogenous substance into target cells using this material. The present invention provides an exosome that is used to introduce an exogenous substance into target cells, wherein the exosome contains one type or two or more types of an exogenous substance and a substance that induces macropinocytosis in the target cells. The present invention also provides a composition containing the exosome and a method for introducing an exogenous substance into cells using this exosome.
Abstract:
A state acquisition computer is provided that includes an interface configured to acquire data for indicating an inter-beat interval of an animal, and a processor configured to convert a Poincare plot of inter-beat intervals into a prescribed coordinate system, and based on a standard deviation of the Poincare plot after conversion, acquire information indicating a psychological state or a physical state of the animal.
Abstract:
A swallowing diagnosis apparatus includes a controller which enables a first swallowing determination process of determining whether or not there is an aspiration risk in the swallowing on the basis of respiratory phases before and after a period in which swallowing has been estimated as having occurred; and a second swallowing determination process of extracting reference information including at least one of the sound information and the respiration information in a predetermined period including the period in which swallowing has been estimated as having occurred, obtaining a feature quantity from the extracted reference information, and performing a machine learning process on the obtained feature quantity to determine whether or not there is a possibility of dysphagia in the swallowing; and a display control process of causing a determination result obtained by the first swallowing determination process and a determination result obtained by the second swallowing determination process to be displayed.
