摘要:
A method for detecting or measuring homocysteine in a sample includes the steps of (a) reacting a D-amino acid present in a sample with a D-amino acid converting enzyme to convert the D-amino acid into a substance that does not serve as a substrate of D-amino acid oxidase or D-amino acid acetyltransferase; (b) reducing homocysteine in the sample with a thiol compound; (c) reacting the reduced homocysteine with a methyltransferase and a methyl donor to newly produce D-amino acid; and (d) reacting the produced D-amino acid with the D-amino acid oxidase or the D-amino acid acetyltransferase in the presence of an SH reagent to produce hydrogen peroxide, and color-developing the produced hydrogen peroxide by using an oxidative color-developing agent.

An aniline derivative of the formula (1) ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is an eicosapentaenoyl or docosahexaenoyl; R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are each independently an alkyl or alkoxy having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or a halogen atom; R.sup.4 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or alkoxy having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or a halogen atom; and A is a single bond, --C(.dbd.O)NH--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --NH-- wherein n is 2 or 3, or a bivalent group of the following formula ##STR2## wherein m and p are each independently 0 or 1. The aniline derivative of the present invention has high inhibitory activity against and high selectivity for ACAT derived from macrophage and is useful as an agent for the prophylaxis and treatment of arteriosclerosis.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method and a kit for detecting or quantitatively determining homocysteine rapidly and simply and with high sensitivity by oxidizing the residual homocysteine cosubstrate, the produced homocysteine-converting enzyme product or an enzyme reaction product thereof in the presence of an SH reagent to produce hydrogen peroxide and determining the produced hydrogen peroxide by color development using an oxidative color-developing agent. By using the method and kit of the present invention, homocysteine in biological samples, in particular, in body fluids such as blood and urine can be detected and quantitatively determined rapidly and simply and with high sensitivity.

A multiple section bars straightening/cutting system in a bar rolling line comprises a multiple section bars straightening apparatus, an inlet side introduction pinch roller, a multiple traveling section bars cutting apparatus and a rear surface tilting table having an outlet side introduction pinch roller. The multiple traveling section bars cutting apparatus includes a fixed blade and a moving blade each having a plurality of calipers formed in accordance with the cross-sectional shapes of the section bars. The rear tilting table tilts in the direction in which the blades of the multiple traveling section bars cutting apparatus move in synchronism with the movement of the blades.
摘要:
A hinge structure of a spectacle frame has bearings formed at the ends of end pieces provided outside a pair of lenses or outside the rims supporting the lenses, pivotally rotatable shafts at the tips of a pair of temples are pivotally rotatably connected with the bearings, a compressed elastic means, being provided around the pivotally rotatable shaft exposed in the recess between the flange and the support face, to give pressure to the bearing for keeping the sliding face of the temple in slidable contact with the sliding face of the bearing. The hinge structure of a spectacle frame overcomes the disadvantages of the conventional hinge structure; that is functionally excellent because of easy assembling, needlessness of complicated adjustment, and capability to keep the temple turning torque constant for a long time; and that is also excellent in appearance and design.
