Abstract:
An error control coding (ECC) circuit includes a first decoder, a second decoder, and a controller. The first decoder receives encoded data comprising a first parity and a second parity. The first decoder decodes the encoded data to a first code by using the first parity. The second decoder is connected to the first decoder. The second decoder is configured to decode the encoded data when the first decoder is deactivated and decode the first code using the second parity when the first decoder is deactivated. The controller transmits a control signal to the first decoder and the second decoder to control the first decoder and the second decoder.

Abstract:
Provided is a method for selecting antibody-producing cell lines using a split fluorescent protein, and a kit for selecting antibody-producing cell lines. By using the split fluorescent protein to select the antibody-producing cell lines, the antibody-producing cell lines can be easily detected by observing whether a single fluorescent color derived from reassembly of the split fluorescent proteins is expressed, which leads in a drastic reduction in selection time and cost required to select highly productive antibody-producing cell line.
