摘要:
A data structure for a graph, which is composed by points and line segments connecting adjacent pairs of the points, respectively, of a two- or three-dimensional object comprises a set of point data of the individual points, each of the point data of the points consists of a clockwise or counter clockwise circular ordered adjacency list written in storage areas of a storage medium individually allocated to the point. The adjacency list describes a plurality of adjacent points associated with the point sequentially according to a circular adjacency order as viewed from outside of the graph with address pointers to the storage areas allocated to the adjacent points, respectively, and location pointers associated with the address pointers, respectively, to storage locations of adjacency lists of the adjacent points, respectively, where an address pointer of the point is written.

摘要:
The present invention provides an apparatus for evaluating a drug effect enabling on-chip evaluation of the effect of a drug while the drug is acting on hERG-expressing cells. The present invention also provides a myocardial toxicity test apparatus and method therefor enabling in vitro myocardial toxicity testing that has previously been performed in vivo. A pulsating cell population and hERG-expressing cells (target model cells) are suitably isolated and arranged on a transparent substrate so that the two form gap junctions. The hERG-expressing cells are arranged on transparent electrodes provided on the transparent substrate. The hERG-expressing cells are exposed to a flow of a liquid containing a drug such that the drug acts thereon. The difference between the normal pulsation of hERG-expressing cells and the pulsation when a drug is acting thereon is captured via electric signals obtained from electrodes, and the properties of the change in potential are evaluated.

A noise insulation structure of a synthetic resin made conduit includes a synthetic resin made chamber and a rubber made noise insulation member. Since the chamber is closely covered around with the noise insulation member through projections and grooves formed on the contact surface of the chamber with the noise insulation member. Further, cylindrical blind-end bores are provided on the inner surface of the noise insulation member so as to form air columns when the noise insulation member is installed on the chamber. The air columns serve as resonators to muffle noise.

A high frequency operation fluorescent lamp which can reduce a possibility of over-heat damage of a flare stem at the end of its life. In the lamp, a pair of intermediate lead wires are passed through the flare stem at each end of a light emitting envelope, and an insulator is provided to cover a top of the flare stem.

Voltage, current and field voltage of a generator connected to an electric power system are sampled at a predetermined period for analog-digital conversion and then led to a digital computer. In addition to computation for AVR, the computer computes from its input the generator output power, and also monitors the occurrence of a fault, the removal of the fault and variation in the generator output in the system. After the occurrence of a fault, the field excitation of the generator is intensified until the generator output power reaches substantially a peak value, but after the peak value is substantially passed by, the excitation is conversely depressed to a value below the level which is present before the fault occurs. When the generator output power recovers the value which is present before the fault occurs, the computer returns to deliver the AVR output.

To provide a fuel sealing structure capable of preventing the leakage of not only liquid fuel but also gasified fuel, an annular packing 30 is interposed between an annular sealing surface 15 on an opening part 11 of a container 20 and an annular sealing surface 25 of a closure 20. The distance between the second regions 15b, 25b of the sealing surfaces 15, 25 is shorter than that between the first regions 15a, 25a. The packing 30 includes a first sealing part 31 sandwiched between the first regions 15a,25a and a second sealing part 32 sandwiched between the 15b, 25b. The second sealing part 32 is smaller in thickness than the first sealing part 31 and the difference of the thicknesses is larger than the difference of distances between the above-mentioned regions. With the closure 20 attached, the compression ratio of the second sealing part 32 is smaller than that of the first sealing part 31.

摘要:
A chip has been developed that can accurately measure cell potential and cell morphology on a single cell basis. The chip also constitutes a cardiac model that comprises a closed loop whereupon cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts are suitably dispersed and arranged, and that can evaluate the effects of a drug thereon. An in vitro cardiac reentry model chip is fabricated by constructing a closed loop comprising cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts arrayed on transparent electrodes formed on a transparent substrate by using a constitution where single cells are enclosed in a specific spatial configuration. A pulse wave of a random cardiomyocyte or a specific cardiomyocyte is propagated on both sides of the loop, and the pulsation status of the cells in the loop is detected electrically. A drug is applied to this cardiac reentry model chip, and the benefit or toxicity of the drug to cardiomyocytes is evaluated by measuring the cell potentials of individual cells.
