| 20100233512 | BIOMOLECULAR ELEMENT, MULTILAYER MOLECULAR THIN FILM OF FATTY ACID AND LIPID TO BE SUPPORT FOR BIOSENSOR MOLECULE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME - The invention addressed a difficult problem in the conventional methods and has its object to provide an organic thin film with flexibility and high strength to be a support for a molecule, with which a biomolecular element or a molecule such as a membrane protein as a biosensor can function equally in a living body, and a method for producing the same. In this invention, the organic thin film to be a support for the biomolecular element or the biosensor molecule is produced by forming a layer of lipid molecules on a layer of fatty acid molecules which is a primary thin film layer formed on an inorganic substrate. Further, by the selection and combination of fatty acid molecules, a thin film structure with a characteristic pattern structure can be obtained. | 09-16-2010 |
| 20100129277 | RARE METAL/PLATINUM-GROUP METAL EXTRACTANT AND METHOD FOR EXTRACTING RARE METALS AND PLATINUM-GROUP METALS - The present invention provides a rare metal/platinum-group metal extractant, which has a completely new structure compared with the conventional rare metal/platinum-group metal extractant and which exhibits excellent extraction performance; it also provides a method for extracting rare metals and platinum-group metals using the extractant. The rare metal/platinum-group metal extractants of the present invention is the one to extract rare metals and platinum-group metals by contacting a solution, in which several kinds of rare metals and platinum-group metals are dissolved, with a solution in which a cyclic phenol sulfide of the following Formula (1) is dissolved to make the rare metals and platinum-group metals move into the cyclic phenol sulfide solution. | 05-27-2010 |
| 20090161254 | MAGNETIC RECORDING MEDIUM, PRODUCTION METHOD THEREOF AND MAGNETIC DISC APPARATUS - A magnetic recording medium for use in digital magnetic recording, which comprises a nonmagnetic substrate having deposited thereon a magnetic layer, wherein with respect to the in-plane direction, the magnetic recording layer comprises a plurality of ferromagnetic regions separated from each other by an antiferromagnetic region. A production method of the magnetic recording medium and a magnetic disc apparatus are also disclosed. | 06-25-2009 |
