Abstract:
The present invention provides a bone connection material that includes an internal layer. The internal layer is formed by braiding a plurality of filaments. The internal layer that is formed by braiding filaments is resistant to lateral shearing forces and may provide flexibility so as to achieve wide applications. Further, the present invention overcomes the drawback of the conventionally used metallic materials that are rigid and inelastic and also overcomes the problem of polylactic acid material of being brittle. Thus, the bone formed according to the present invention is close to a natural bone and is more suitable for uses in portions where frequent movements are made and scaffolds of stem cells.
Abstract:
A genetically modified zebrafish embryo, comprising a HBNF cDNA or a NGF cDNA or a GDNF cDNA together with a cDNA encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP) so as to induce neurite outgrowth during said zebrafish embryonic development, and a method of using such genetically modified zebrafish embryo to identify a therapeutic agent are disclosed.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a light guide tube, which is formed by weaving a plurality of filaments to provide a single-hole or multi-hole tube. Further, the filaments include filaments that are made of at least one light-transmittable material. With the single-hole or multi-hole tube formed by weaving filaments, besides strengthening the capability of enduring sideways stress, a light-emitting unit can be additionally included at a front end of the tube for illumination purposes and formation can be achieved by using various types of filaments to suit practical needs, such as combination with metal wires or electrical signal carrier material for purposes of transmission of electrical power or electronic information, thereby achieving a wider range of applications that the conventional tubes.
