Abstract:
A terminal crimping unit providing improved functionality. The pressuring unit is installed on the terminal crimping unit. The pressuring unit is equipped with a plural number of pressure members for crimping the terminal fittings. The plural number of pressure members are unified in one frame body. The frame body is designed such that can be taken off and put on as one unit from the shank. By having only one motion for putting on and taking off the frame body, the plural number of pressuring members, including the crimpers, can be maintained as one unit.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an altered-type human ALT gene in which the codons for the five amino acids in the human ALT (alanine aminotransferase) gene are replaced, i. e. the fourth amino acid codon from the initiation codon for methionine (Met) is replaced by a codon for serine (Ser), the fifth by a codon for threonine (Thr), the seventh by a codon for aspartic acid (Asp), the 39th by a codon for glycine (Gly) and the 222nd by a codon for alanine (Ala), and concurrently, restriction sites are added at the upstream and downstream of said gene. The active human ALT having properties similar to those of the native enzyme can be effectively produced by culturing E. coli transformed with a recombinant plasmid in which the altered-type human ALT gene of the present invention is ligated to a vector.
Abstract:
A plasma separating apparatus comprising a housing provided with a blood inlet port, a plasma outlet port, and a blood cell outlet port; an rotor rotatably held in the housing; a blood separating space formed between the outside surface of the rotor and the inside surface of the housing and communicating with the blood inlet port at its upper part and with the blood cell outlet port at its lower part; a plasma passage enclosing at least a part of the circumference of the blood separating space and communicating with the plasma outlet port; and a plasma separating membrane disposed so as to partition the blood separating space and the plasma passage.
Abstract:
A flux for a solder paste according to an aspect of the invention includes an acrylic resin obtained by radically copolymerizing a (meth)acrylate having a C6-C15 alkyl group and a (meth)acrylate other than the above-mentioned (meth)acrylate; and rosins. The weight ratio of the acrylic resin is 0.5 or greater and 1.2 or less when the weight of the rosins is taken as 1, and the flux for a solder paste is fluidized by application of a shear force of 10 Pa or greater and 150 Pa or less.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a mutated human ALT (alanine aminotransferase) gene improving the DNA sequence encoding the N-terminal region of human ALT, without causing amino acid substitution, while, at the same time, adding restriction endonuclease sites to the upstream and downstream sites of the gene. By cultivation of E. coli transformant carrying a recombinant plasmid, which was constructed by ligation of the mutated human ALT gene into a vector, an active human ALT can be produced efficiently.
Abstract:
A solder paste according to an aspect of the invention includes, within a flux, an activator that has a dibasic acid with a molecular weight of 250 or less, a monobasic acid with a molecular weight of 150 or greater and 300 or less, and a dibasic acid with a molecular weight of 300 or greater and 600 or less; and at least one resin additive selected from the group consisting of high-density polyethylenes and polypropylenes. The solder paste has the resin additive in an amount of 4% by weight or greater and 12% by weight or less when the total amount of the flux is taken as 100% by weight, and has a viscosity of 400 Pa·s or greater at 80° C.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for transferring a centrifugally separated component in a liquid contained in a flexible bag is disclosed. The apparatus is composed of a centrifugal container for accommodating flexible blood collecting bag filled with blood, and a pushing mechanism for pushing the blood collecting bag. The pushing mechanism is composed of a pair of rollers for pushing a soft material part of the cylindrical portion of the centrifugal container from opposite directions in such a manner that the soft material part is deformed inwardly to project inside the centrifugal container and increase inner pressure of the flexible bag to transfer separated component out of the flexible bag. According to the apparatus and method, the yield for collecting the separated component obtained by centrifugal separation can be increased, and the time required for collection can be decreased.
