摘要:
The concentration of molecular fluorine in a mixed gas such as an excimer laser gas can be determined easily, quickly and accurately by passing the mixed gas through a column packed with an alakli metal or alkaline earth metal compound which has no halogen atom and reacts with fluorine to form a solid fluoride together with molecular oxygen and/or carbon dioxide and measuring the concentration of oxygen or carbon dioxide in the fluorine-free gas flowed out of the packed column. If the mixed gas initially contains molecular oxygen or carbon dioxide, its concentration is measured separately after fixing fluorine in another column packed with an element which forms a fluoride. This analyzing method can be used in a feedback control system for controlling the concentration of fluorine in an excimer laser gas during operation of the laser to thereby stabilize the laser output power.

摘要:
A laser gas used in a rare gas fluoride excimer laser is efficiently refined with little loss of the principal rare gas such as Ar, Kr or Xe by sequential contact of the laser gas first with a reactive metal, e.g. Si or Fe, for conversion of the fluorine source gas such as F.sub.2 or NF.sub.3 to a metal fluoride, then with a solid alkaline compound, e.g. Ca(OH).sub.2, for conversion of gaseous fluorides to solid metal fluorides, next with zeolite which is adsorbent of most of the remaining impurities and finally with an alkaline metal, e.g. Ca or Na, for decomposition of CF.sub.4 to form a solid metal fluoride and carbon. CF.sub.4 is formed during operation of the excimer laser by reaction of fluorine with a fluororesin used as electrical insulator in the laser apparatus, and accumulation of CF.sub.4 in the laser gas caused significal lowering of the laser output power.

The present invention relates to a method for decomposing any of chlorocarbons, chlorofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons and SF.sub.6 contained in a gas. This method includes the step of bringing the gas into contact, at a temperature of at least 300.degree. C., with a first mixture consisting essentially of 0.05-40 wt % of potassium hydroxide and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of alkali-earth-metal oxides and alkali-earth-metal hydroxides, for decomposing the at least one halide compound. When the halide compound-containing gas further contains oxygen, this gas may be brought into contact, at a temperature of at least 500.degree. C., with at least one first substance selected from the group consisting of active carbon, iron powder and nickel powder, for removing the oxygen from the gas, prior to the halide compound decomposition. When the halide compound-containing gas still further contains a strong oxidizing gas (e.g., fluorine), this gas may be brought into contact, at a temperature of at least 300.degree. C., with at least one second substance selected from the group consisting of Si, Ti, Ge, W, Mo, Fe, Mn, Co, Zn, Sn, B, Zr and compounds of these elements, except oxides of these elements, such that the oxidizing gas turns into a compound that is not reactive with the at least one first substance. According to this method, it is possible to decompose halide compounds contained within a gas, using a smaller equipment, at a lower temperature, as compared with conventional methods.

It is intended to provide a screening system for a centrally acting drug transported across the blood-brain barrier, a drug acting on the blood-brain barrier itself, or a drug transferred into the brain without being expected to centrally act. Moreover, another object of the present invention is to achieve pathogenesis analysis study or the screening in a diseased state by applying various diseased environments to this screening system. The present invention provides an in-vitro model of blood-brain barrier obtained by using a three-dimensional culture apparatus comprising: a culture solution; a plate holding the culture solution; and a filter immersed in the culture solution and placed in no contact with the inside bottom of the plate, the filter having plural pores of 0.35 to 0.45 μm in diameter, and by comprising: seeding primary cultured brain capillary endothelial cells onto the upper surface of the filter; seeding primary cultured brain pericytes onto the under surface of the filter; seeding primary cultured astrocytes onto the inside surface of the plate; and coculturing these cells in a normal culture solution.
摘要:
A process for producing silicon tetrafluoride includes reacting at 250° C. or higher elemental silicon with hydrogen fluoride, thereby producing a gas product containing silicon tetrafluoride. This reaction can be conducted such that the gas product contains at least 0.02 volume % of the unreacted hydrogen fluoride. The process may further include bringing the gas product into contact with elemental nickel at a temperature of 600° C. or higher. Alternatively, the process may further include adding at least 0.1 volume % of hydrogen fluoride to the gas product to prepare a gas mixture; and bringing the gas mixture into contact with elemental nickel at a temperature of 400° C. or higher.
