| 20130071932 | CULTURE METHOD FOR CAUSING DIFFERENTIATION OF PLURIPOTENT MAMMALIAN CELLS - Provided is a method that achieves control of embryoid body size and can induce differentiation in a state where the embryoid body size is controlled, by using a cell culture chamber having a plurality of microchambers formed therein. A culture method for causing differentiation of pluripotent mammalian cells uses a cell culture chamber ( | 03-21-2013 |
| 20120276643 | Method for Specific Cleavage of N-CA Bond in Peptide Main Chain - The present invention provides a peptide degradation reagent with the following characteristics: 1) it has no marked toxicity such as carcinogenicity, 2) it does not produce metastable peaks resulting from excessive degradation property, 3) it does not produce multiply-charged ion peaks which are interference peaks, and 4) it can secure separation and sharpness of peaks. The present invention also provides a method for specifically cleaving N—Cα bonds on a peptide backbone using the above-described reagent, and a method of determining the amino acid sequence of a peptide utilizing this specific cleavage. A method for specifically cleaving N—Cα bonds on the backbone of a peptide, comprising irradiating the peptide with laser light in the presence of 5-amino salicylic acid. A method for determining the amino acid sequence of a peptide, comprising irradiating the peptide with laser light in the presence of 5-amino salicylic acid to thereby specifically cleave N—Cα bonds on the peptide backbone. A reagent for specifically cleaving N—Cα bonds on a peptide backbone; a hydrogen radical-releasing reagent; a matrix reagent for MALDI-ISD; a matrix for MALDI-ISD; a peptide ionization reagent for MALDI-ISD; and a kit for MALDI-ISD. | 11-01-2012 |
| 20120029366 | BLOOD PRESSURE DETECTION APPARATUS AND BLOOD PRESSURE DETECTION METHOD - A blood pressure detection apparatus includes a pressure sensor, a press mechanism that applies pressure to a blood vessel by pressing a living body, and can gradually decrease the pressure, and a blood pressure calculation section that determines the pressure when a given waveform pattern appears in a waveform of pulse waves obtained by the pressure sensor to be a maximal blood pressure, determines the pressure when the waveform has a maximum amplitude to be a mean blood pressure, and calculates a minimal blood pressure using the maximal blood pressure and the mean blood pressure. | 02-02-2012 |
