An apparatus for repairing a liquid crystal display comprises a common electrode, pixel electrodes facing the common electrode, and a liquid crystal sealed between the common and pixel electrodes. If the liquid crystal contains foreign matter which short-circuits the common and pixel electrodes to each other, a pixel electrode is irradiated with a laser beam such that at least a ring line region completely surrounding a portion touching the foreign matter is burnt away, whereby a region inside of the ring line region and a region outside of the ring line region are electrically insulated from each other.

The present invention provides a protein capable of binding to an environmental hormone, which protein is supplemented with useful properties for measuring, quantifying and concentrating environmental hormones, such as high sensitivity, low cross-reactivity, unlikelihood of being influenced by interfering substances, and unlikelihood of being influenced by solvents. Specifically, the present invention provides a modified protein prepared by obtaining various genes for various antibodies with environmental hormones, and modifying, by gene recombination technology, various properties of the original antibody, such as affinity, avidity, cross-reactivity, resistance for interfering substance on antigen-antibody reaction, resistance for interfering substance on enzymatic color developing reaction, resistance for solvent and the like.
摘要:
A seismic isolator has a sliding plate fixed on the lower surface of a building, a connecting plate underlying the sliding plate, an elastic first support disposed between the connecting plate and a foundation of the building to support the building, a second support disposed between the connecting plate and the foundation and urged by a biasing force of a spring member such that its upper end is brought into tight contact with the lower surface of the connecting plate, and a jack for adjusting the biasing force of the spring member. A frictional force acting between the sliding plate and the connecting plate is larger than that between the connecting plate and the upper end of the second support.

The present invention provides a protein capable of binding to a female sex hormone, which protein is supplemented with useful properties for measuring, quantifying and concentrating female sex hormones, such as high sensitivity, low cross-reactivity, unlikelihood of being influenced by interfering substances, and unlikelihood of being influenced by solvents. Specifically, the present invention provides a recombinant protein prepared by obtaining various genes for various antibodies against female sex hormones, and modifying, by gene recombination technology, various properties of the original antibody, such as affinity, avidity, cross-reactivity, resistance for interfering substance on antigen-antibody reaction, resistance for interfering substance on enzymatic color developing reaction, resistance for solvent and the like.
摘要:
A floor system includes a plurality of panels placed on a base floor. A space is formed between the panels and the base floor for laying cables. A plurality of sliding plates are arranged on the base floor. A plurality of supports are provided and each support of the plurality of supports is arranged on each of the sliding plates so as to freely slide. The plurality of panels are supported by the plurality of supports by being fixed on a pedestal of the each support of the plurality of supports. The plurality of panels are hence connected to each other to form a single floor surface. The dynamic coefficient of friction between the bottom of the supports and the sliding plates is selected to be a value within a range of 0.09 to 0.25.
摘要:
The present invention provides an improvement in a method for producing physiologically active proteins by cultivating Escherichia coli having an expression vector which contains a structural gene for such proteins at the downstream end of the translational starting codon. The method comprises cultivating the Escherichia coli in a medium containing (1) an iron ion source, a manganese ion source or a mixture thereof and (2) a nitrogen source derived from natural origin. The advantage of this method is an increase in the yield of physiologically active proteins substantially free of methionine (corresponding to translational starting codon ATG) at the N-terminus.
