    Abstract: A catalyst is provided which is used for continuously synthesizing ammonia using a gas containing hydrogen and nitrogen as a raw material, wherein a transition metal which exhibits catalytic activity is supported by a support, and the support is a two-dimensional electride or a precursor thereof. The two-dimensional electride or the precursor thereof is a metal nitride represented by MxNyHz (M represents one or two or more of Group II metals selected from the group consisting of Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba, and x, y and z are in ranges of 1≤x≤11, 1≤y≤8, and 0≤z≤4 respectively, in which x is an integer, and y and z are not limited to an integer) or M3N2 (M is the same as above), or a metal carbide selected from the group consisting of Y2C, Sc2C, Gd2C, Tb2C, Dy2C, Ho2C and Er2C. These catalysts are used for continuously reacting nitrogen with hydrogen, which are raw materials, on the catalyst, wherein the reaction is performed in an ammonia synthesis reaction system under the preferable conditions of a reaction temperature which is equal to or higher than 100° C. and equal to or lower than 600° C., and a reaction pressure which is equal to or higher than 10 kPa and lower than 20 MPa.

    Abstract: A nano-fluidic device includes: a first substrate that has a nanoscale groove on one surface; and a second substrate that is integrally provided with the first substrate by bonding one surface of the second substrate to the one surface of the first substrate and forms a nanochannel with the groove of the first substrate, in which either the first substrate or the second substrate includes at least a thin portion in a part of a position overlapping the nanochannel in plan view, and the thin portion is deformed by pressing to open and close the nanochannel.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for easily and exponentially amplifying circular DNA, particularly long chain circular DNA, in a cell-free system. Specifically, the present invention provides a method for amplifying circular DNA in which circular DNA having a replication origin sequence (origin of chromosome (oriC)) is mixed with a reaction solution containing the following enzyme groups to form a reaction mixture, which is then reacted under an isothermal condition, the enzyme groups being:(1) a first enzyme group that catalyzes replication of circular DNA; (2) a second enzyme group that catalyzes an Okazaki fragment maturation and synthesizes two sister circular DNAs constituting a catenane; and (3) a third enzyme group that catalyzes a separation of two sister circular DNAs.
