An object of the present invention is to provide a carrier which enables to obtain a small RNA in high yield yet in high purity, a simple method for obtaining a small RNA and/or a target nucleic acid of small RNA using the same, and a reagent and a kit comprising the above-described carrier.The present invention relates to (1) a carrier for obtaining a small RNA produced by introducing a polymerizable functional group or a chain transfer group to the surface of a core particle, mixing said particle with a polymerizable monomer, then promoting polymerization reaction to form a layer comprising a polymer compound on the surface of said particle, and immobilizing a physiologically active substance having affinity to a small RNA-binding protein on the surface of the particle; (2) a method for obtaining a small RNA, characterized by using the above-described carrier; (3) a reagent for obtaining a small RNA and/or a target nucleic acid of small RNA, comprising the above-described carrier; (4) a reagent kit for obtaining a small RNA and/or a target nucleic acid of small RNA, comprising said reagent; and (5) a method for obtaining a target nucleic acid of small RNA, characterized by using the above-described carrier.
摘要:
A head arm for use in a magnetic disk drive, comprising a guide arm disposed between a magnetic head and an actuator so as to transmit actuating force of the actuator to the magnetic head thereby guiding the magnetic head along a plane of a magnetic disk, a printed circuit fixed to the guide arm, and deflection compensating member for making the coefficients of thermal expansion of said guide arm and said printed circuit substantially equal to each other in at least the direction of seek of the head arm. No thermal deformation in an out-of-plane direction occurs on such a head arm regardless of any variation in the temperature of the environment in which the magnetic disk drive is installed. The head arm may also comprise a guide arm and a printed circuit formed of a moisture absorptive material and covered at all or part of its surfaces with a covering layer formed of a moisture resistive material not permeable to moisture. No deformation in an out-of-plane direction occurs on such a head arm regardless of any variation in the humidity of the environment in which the magnetic disk drive is installed. Therefore, the possibility of occurrence of off-track can be minimized.

A magnetic head device has a magnetic head slider by means of which information is recorded in and read from a magnetic recording medium. The magnetic head slider is supported by a supporting structure having an internal cavity, an opening formed in a portion of the structure where the magnetic head slider faces the magnetic recording medium and communicating with the internal cavity, and a gas passage through which the gas introduced into the internal cavity through the opening is discharged to the exterior of the internal cavity. With this arrangement, the pressure acting on the back surface of the magnetic head slider is adjusted to keep the slider afloat, while removing dust suspended in the gas around the recording medium and the supporting structure.

A magnetic head slider for use with a magnetic recording medium has a bearing surface which opposes to the magnetic recording medium and generates a pneumatic bearing effect for floating the magnetic head slider above a surface of the magnetic recording medium. The bearing surface includes a tapered surface portion constituting an air entrance and a flat rail portion connected to the tapered surface portion. The magnetic head slider has vent holes formed in the flat rail portion penetrating through the magnetic head slider from the flat rail portions to an end surface of the slider opposite to the magnetic recording medium.

A magnetic disc unit includes a rotating disc type magnetic disc having an outer periphery, and a carriage arm linked to a head support mechanism for a recording/reproducing head. A base has an outer periphery and mounts the rotating disc type magnetic disc and the carriage arm, and has a side wall with an inner wall surface having an opening for inserting the carriage arm. The inner wall surface of the side wall defines a shroud surrounding the outer periphery of the magnetic disc, except at the opening in the side wall where the shroud is projected inwardly so as to decrease an opening angle of the opening in the side wall. A gap between the outer periphery of the magnetic disc and the shroud is set in a range not less than 0.1 mm but not greater than 0.6 mm.

In a magnetic disc apparatus including a plurality of magnetic discs mounted on a spindle, arms supporting magnetic heads, a rotary actuator for the arms, and a housing having an arcuate-shaped shroud, the improvement wherein gaps between the shroud and the sides of outer peripheries of the magnetic discs are larger than 0.1 mm and less than 0.6 mm. An open space is located, downstream of the arms with respect to the air flow on surfaces of the magnetic discs, the open space being devoid of the shroud. An opening is provided in the shroud, upstream of the arms with respect to the air flow and having a greater width than a width of the gaps defined between the magnetic discs and the shroud, and a bypass channel is provided which communicates between the opening and open space.

A flying head slider has gas bearing rails formed on a surface thereof disposed in opposed relation to a recording medium. The flying head slider flies at a microscopic distance above the recording medium by a pressure produced by a stream of gas resulted from the rotation of the recording medium. Each of the gas bearing rails comprises an inflow portion disposed at an inflow side of the gas stream so as to produce a pressure, an outflow portion disposed at an outflow side of the gas stream so as to produce a pressure, and a connective portion interconnecting the inflow portion and the outflow portion in a common plane. The connective portion serves to suppress an excessive compression of the gas, and achieves good damping characteristics.

An apparatus for supporting and reciprocating a magnetic head slider above a rotating magnetic disk comprises a carrying arm having a free end, a flexible base connected at one end thereof to the free end of the supporting arm, a pair of flexible fingers extending from the other end of the flexible base parallel to an axis of the carrying arm and defining therebetween a space, a traverse bar connecting two free ends of the fingers, and a flexible tongued member on which the magnetic head slider to be mounted, one end of the tongued member being connected to the traverse bar and the other end thereof extending into the space with gaps between the tongued member and the fingers and the base. A reduced part of a minimum cross-section is provided in each of the fingers. The reduced part is located between the one end of the tongued member and a center between the one end of the tongued member and the other end of the base.
