Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090117638BILIRUBIN OXIDASE MUTANT HAVING THERMAL STABILITY - A heat-resistant bilirubin oxidase mutant is disclosed. The bilirubin oxidase is obtained by deletion, replacement, addition or insertion of at least one amino acid residue of a wild type amino sequence of SEQ. ID. No. 1 of a bilirubin oxidase derived from an imperfect filamentous fungus, 05-07-2009
20090155880MUTANT PROTEIN HAVING DIAPHORASE ACTIVITY - A mutant protein having diaphorase activity is provided. A mutant protein includes an amino acid sequence obtained by deletion, replacement, addition, or insertion of at least one amino acid residue of a native-form amino acid sequence of SEQ. ID. No. 1, wherein the mutant protein has diaphorase activity with an enzyme activity of 245 or more.06-18-2009
20100129891BILIRUBIN OXIDASE MUTANT HAVING THERMAL STABILITY - A heat-resistant bilirubin oxidase mutant is disclosed. The bilirubin oxidase mutant is obtained by deletion, replacement, addition or insertion of at least one amino acid residue of a wild type amino sequence of SEQ. ID. No. 1 of a bilirubin oxidase derived from an imperfect filamentous fungus, 05-27-2010
20100248042FUEL CELL, MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF, ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, ENZYME-IMMOBILIZED ELECTRODE, MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF, WATER-REPELLENT AGENT, AND ENZYME IMMOBILIZING MATERIAL - In the case in which a fuel cell has a structure in which a cathode (09-30-2010
20110059374FUEL CELL AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A fuel cell having excellent properties is provided in which, when an enzyme is immobilized in at least one of a positive electrode and a negative electrode, a sufficient buffering capability can be provided even in a high power output operation and the inherent capability of the enzyme can be sufficiently exerted. In a biofuel cell including a structure in which a positive electrode 03-10-2011
20110065008ENZYME ELECTRODE AND FUEL CELL USING THE ENZYME ELECTRODE - Provided is an enzyme electrode in which oxidation-reduction reactions proceed with an enzyme acting as a catalyst, and the enzyme is modified to increase affinity and/or reaction rate with a reaction substrate or an electron transfer mediator by adding or inserting at least one codon encoding a particular amino acid residue to or into a base sequence encoding the enzyme, and is immobilized. Since the oxidation-reduction reactions on the electrode proceed highly efficiently, the enzyme electrode can cause to increase the obtained output of electric energy and thus can be suitably used in all types of fuel cells, biosensors, and electronic apparatuses.03-17-2011
20110117453FUEL REFORMER AND POWER GENERATION APPARATUS USING THE SAME - The present invention provides a fuel reformer which enables power generation to be actually performed even in the case of using very-safe familiar things such as food and drink and food scraps as a fuel of a biofuel cell. The fuel reformer is used for a fuel cell which generates power as an oxidation reduction reaction progresses using enzyme as a catalyst, and has: a primary fuel introduction unit for introducing a primary fuel; a fuel reforming unit communicating with the primary fuel introduction unit and reforming the primary fuel to a secondary fuel from which electrons can be emitted by an oxidation reduction reaction using enzyme as a catalyst; and a secondary fuel supplying unit communicating with the fuel reforming unit and supplying the secondary fuel to the fuel cell.05-19-2011
20110143223FUEL CELL - A fuel cell is provided. The fuel cell includes at least one of a plant essential oil and a plant essential oil ingredient in an effective amount so as to function as a biological repellent.06-16-2011
20110143225FUEL CELL AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME, ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, ENZYME-IMMOBILIZED ELECTRODE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME, WATER-REPELLENT AGENT, AND ENZYME-IMMOBILIZING MATERIAL - A fuel cell is provided having a structure in which a cathode and an anode face each other with an electrolyte layer therebetween. The cathode includes an electrode on which an oxygen reductase and the like are immobilized, and the electrode has pores therein, water repellency is imparted to at least part of the surface of the electrode. Water repellency is imparted by forming a water-repellent agent on the surface of the electrode. The water-repellent agent includes a water-repellent material such as carbon powder and an organic solvent such as methyl isobutyl ketone that causes phase separation with water. When the electrode has pores therein, there are provided a fuel cell that stably provides a high current value and a method for manufacturing the fuel cell.06-16-2011
20110145280SYSTEM FOR INQUIRING ABOUT FITNESS OF BEVERAGE AS BATTERY FUEL - Disclosed herein is a system for inquiring about fitness of a beverage as battery fuel, including a search request receiving section configured to receive an input of beverage information regarding a beverage as a search request, a storage section having stored therein a reference database in which search requests and performance data of fuel cells are associated with each other, a search section configured to automatically search the reference database for performance data which coincides with the search request, and a search answer outputting section configured to output a search answer.06-16-2011
