摘要:
An apparatus for degrading a pollutant to purify a medium containing a pollutant using a microorganism, which comprises a container in which a region containing a microorganism capable of degrading the pollutant is provided, wherein the container has the first opening for introducing the medium into the container and the second opening for draining the medium passed through the region containing the microorganism from the container, and in the container a region containing a functional material which releases a material required for degrading the pollutant by the microorganism is provided between the first opening and the region containing microorganism.
摘要:
A method of biodegradation of a polluting substance by a microorganism is disclosed, wherein the microorganism is an auxotrophic microorganism and the action of the auxotrophic microorganism is controlled by the amount of a required nutrient for the auxotrophic microorganism. A carrier for supporting an auxotrophic microorganism for use for biodegradation contains a required nutrient for the auxotrophic microorganism.

There are provided a method and an apparatus for measuring an immunologically active material by physically or chemically immobilizing a material being immunologically active to a material to be measured of a specimen onto dehydrated solid fine particles, providing a desired dispersed body of said immunologically active material immobilized onto said solid fine particles in a dispersing medium, adding the specimen to said dispersed body while stirring to react the specimen with the immunologically active material, thereby causing a reaction mixture in an agglutinated state and optically measuring said agglutinated state of the reaction mixture to thereby quantitatively determine the content of the material to be measured with an improved accuracy.
摘要:
A survival method for a foreign microorganism, which comprises the steps of disturbing the equilibrium state of an ecosystem in which plural kinds of microorganisms coexist, to temporarily bring the ecosystem into a non-equilibrium state, and then introducing a foreign microorganism into the ecosystem. There are three states of equilibrium involved of which comprise a first state wherein the ecosystem is in equilibrium, a second state wherein the ecosystem is converted to a state which is not in equilibrium, and a third state wherein the ecosystem is converted to a new state of equilibrium to provide for an ecological niche for survival of an introduced foreign microorganism in the ecosystem. The foreign microorganism is also used in a method for remedying an environment contaminated with a pollutant.

One purpose of this invention is to provide radiation tomography apparatus with easier maintenance. A specific approach for this purpose is as follows. That is, a detector ring in the radiation tomography apparatus includes two or more rings. Moreover, a ring moves as to approach a next ring, whereby both the rings are connected. If radiation tomography is conducted while a clearance is provided between the rings, detection sensitivity of the detector ring decreases due to the clearance. On the other hand, according to this invention, the ring moves as to approach the next ring, which results in a narrower clearance. Accordingly, radiation that is not observed may be reduced as much as possible.

In the production method of polyamide of the present invention, the mole balance at a set point during melt polymerization is estimated from a pre-established equation for calculating the mole balance during melt polymerization from a melt viscosity. On the basis of the estimated mole balance, the subsequent conditions of melt polymerization of a batch and the polymerization conditions of the next and subsequent batches are determined. In addition, the mole balance, molecular weight and relative viscosity of melt-polymerized polyamide are estimated from pre-established equations each for respectively calculating the mole balance, molecular weight and relative viscosity at the end point of melt polymerization from the melt viscosity. The conditions for solid phase-polymerizing the melt-polymerized polyamide are determined on the basis of estimated values.
