| 20100065735 | DEVICE FOR MASS SPECTROMETRY, AND MASS SPECTROMETRY APPARATUS AND METHOD - In a device for mass spectrometry, an analyte contained in a sample is desorbed from a surface of the device by irradiating the sample in contact with the surface with measurement light. The device includes a micro-structure having a plurality of metal bodies on a surface of a substrate, and the plurality of metal bodies have sizes that can excite localized plasmons by irradiation with the measurement light. Further, the device includes an initiator fixed at least to a part of a surface of the micro-structure. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100078552 | SUBSTRATE FOR MASS SPECTROMETRY AND MASS SPECTROMETRY METHOD - A substrate for mass spectrometry includes a first reflective member that is semi-transmissive/semi-reflective, a transparent member, and a second reflective member that is reflective, sequentially provided to form an optical resonator. The optical resonator includes, on a surface of the first reflective member, a sample separation portion at which surface interaction occurs with a plurality of analytes contained in a sample liquid. The analytes are separated on the sample separation portion to perform mass spectrometry on each of the analytes. A sample in contact with the surface of the first reflective member is irradiated with laser beam L to generate resonance in the optical resonator, and an electric field on the surface of the first reflective member is enhanced by the resonance. The enhanced electric field is utilized to ionize analytes S in the sample and to desorb the analytes S from the surface. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20110020649 | METHOD FOR IMMOBILIZATION, PHYSIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE SUBSTANCE-IMMOBILIZED CARRIER, CARRIER FOR IMMOBILIZATION, CARRIER, AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING CARRIER - An immobilization method for immobilizing a physiologically active substance on a solid phase carrier, the method including: bringing the solid phase carrier into contact with an acid anhydride functional group-containing silane coupling agent represented by the following Formula (I); and carrying out a process of binding of the physiologically active substance to the acid anhydride functional group while maintaining the solid phase carrier after the contact at a temperature within the range of 0° C. to 60° C.; a physiologically active substance-immobilized carrier, and a carrier for immobilization are provided. Further, a carrier including a porous material treated with an acid anhydride functional group-containing silane coupling agent represented by the following Formula (I), a blocking agent that is immobilized to the porous material; and a method for producing it is provided. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110084025 | WATER PURIFIER AND WATER PURIFICATION METHOD - To provide a water purifier containing: a diluting unit configured to bring targeted water into contact with a nonvolatile compound-containing aqueous solution via a semi-permeable membrane to separate water from the targeted water by the membrane, and to dilute the nonvolatile compound-containing aqueous solution with the separated water; a separating unit configured to heat the diluted aqueous solution so as to separate water vapor from the diluted aqueous solution, and to obtain the concentrated aqueous solution; a condensing unit configured to cool the separated water vapor to generate water; an evaporating unit configured to collect, as purified water, part of the generated water, and to evaporate the rest of the generated water under the reduced pressure to obtain water vapor; and an absorbing unit configured to allow the concentrated aqueous solution obtained by the separating unit to absorb the water vapor obtained by the evaporating unit. | 04-14-2011 |
