    摘要: It is intended to clarify a transportation system participating in the uric acid uptake in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and provide a novel remedy, a preventive or a treating agent for vascular disorders, hypertension and renal disorders with the use of a drug participating in this transportation system. It is also intended to provide a novel screening system for a remedy, a preventive or a treating agent for vascular disorders, hypertension and renal disorders with the use of such a transportation system. Namely, a medicinal composition for healing, preventing or treating vascular disorders, hypertension and renal disorders which comprises a drug having an effect of inhibiting the uric acid uptake by a uric acid transporter URAT1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier; and a method of screening a substance efficacious for healing, preventing or treating vascular disorders, hypertension and renal disorders which comprises using a cell line expressing URAT1 in the presence or absence of a test compound and assaying the uric acid uptake level, cell proliferation ability or the amount of a monocyte chemotactic factor produced by the cells.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method of monitoring calibration of a spectrophotometric apparatus that comprises one or more calibration algorithms for one or more analytes. This method comprises measuring absorbance of a quality control material with the apparatus to obtain a measurement, where the quality control material exhibits an absorbance spectra characterized as having a negative slope for a continuous spectral segment from about 5 nm to about 200 nm in length, and where the spectral segment includes a principal calibration wavelength for the one or more analytes. The method then involves calculating one or more concentration values from the measurement using the one or more calibration algorithms, followed by comparing the one or more concentration values with an assigned value given to the quality control material for each of the one or more analytes, and determining if there is a violation of a pre-established quality control rule. In this way one or more calibration algorithms of the apparatus may be monitored. A reagentless method for determining the concentration of one or more analytes in a sample in a spectrophotometric apparatus comprising at least one primary calibration algorithm is also disclosed. The present invention also provides to a method for selecting one or more substances as a quality control material for monitoring at least one primary calibration algorithm on a spectrophotometric apparatus. The present invention includes a quality control material for mimicking two or more analytes comprising, one or more substances having a combined absorption spectrum exhibiting a negative slope for a continuous spectral segment from about 5 nm to 200 nm in length, in a portion of an absorption spectrum, including one or more principal calibration wavelengths, for the two or more analytes.

    摘要: A method and device for performing fluid analysis by separating cells and/or particles from a fluid, such as a biological, vehicular or industrial fluid. The device is a micromachined filtering device comprising a substrate with through-thickness vias having approximately equal diameters that prevent passage through the substrate of a first material while permitting passage through the substrate of other materials having diametrical dimensions less than the diameter of the vias. Electrodes are located on a surface of the substrate between vias so that as the first material collects at the surface of the substrate, the electrodes become electrically connected to produce an output signal in some proportion to the amount of the first material collected. The device can incorporate multiple micromachined substrates, yielding an analysis system that produces an electrical output for each of a number of properties or parameters.

    摘要: The method is directed to assaying for biological components in a sample comprising step (A) generating an oxidase substrate in the presence of an amphoteric surfactant and in the absence of ferrocyanide; (B) initially generating hydrogen peroxide through said oxidase reaction on said substrate of oxidase with subsequent detection of the generated hydrogen peroxide using peroxidase and a color developer capable of being oxidized in the presence of amphoteric surfactant and ferrocyanide; and (C) correlating the amount of color developed to the amount of biological components in the biological sample. Even when the biological component to be detected is present in a very small amount, the interference of bilirubin can be eliminated in assays of biological components in which peroxidase generated from an enzymatic reaction is detected using peroxidase and a color developer capable of being oxidized.
