Abstract: The invention relates to an astaxanthin compound composition, the preparation system and the method of preparing the astaxanthin compound composition. The astaxanthin compound composition comprises Haematococcus pluvialis ingredient, extract of wolfberry, extract of jujube, and arginine. The preparation system includes a mixing unit and an additive-adding unit, those which operate sequentially to prepare a compound astaxanthin compound composition, the invention thus provides a stable and sustainably active compound astaxanthin compound composition with long shelf-life, which can bring favorable effects on regulating the lipid profile.

Abstract: A filter test strip to filter and test a specimen in liquid includes a test element and a specimen filter assembly which is located on the test element and includes a filter cotton holding layer, a filter cotton layer and a cotton bonding layer. The filter cotton holding layer has a filter channel to allow the specimen in liquid to pass through. The filter cotton layer fills the filter channel. A gap is formed between the filter cotton holding layer and filter cotton layer. The cotton bonding layer is located below the filter cotton holding layer and bonded to the test element via an adhesive which masks the gap. Hence the specimen in liquid can be prevented from seeping out through the gap with passing through the filter cotton layer. Therefore, the specimen in liquid can fully be filtered by the filter cotton layer to enhance test accuracy.

Abstract: This invention discloses a method for fabricating a gold/titanium dioxide core-shell structured photocatalyst and the application thereof to photocatalytic decomposition of organic compounds under ultraviolet irradiation. The method comprises steps: fabricating a solution of gold ions; fabricating gold/titanium dioxide core-shell structured nanoparticles; and crystallizing the gold/titanium dioxide core-shell structured nanoparticles, wherein gold and titanium dioxide are mixed by a weight ratio of 0.005 to 0.03. The gold/titanium dioxide core-shell structured photocatalyst can effectively decompose organic compounds and dyes under ultraviolet irradiation.

Abstract: The invention relates to the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of a novel human RPS6KA6-related gene variant (RPS6KA6V). The invention also provides a process for producing the polypeptide of the variant. The invention further provides a use of the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of the gene variant in diagnosing T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.

Abstract: As embodied and broadly described herein, the invention provides an electrode test strip. The electrochemical electrode test strip comprises an insulating base plate, a electrode system on the base plate, a spacer which partially covers the electrode system and a channel trench with a constant width is formed thereof, a reactive film, and a cover on the spacer with an first opening thereof. Wherein the electrode system comprises at least a working electrode and a reference electrode, and the working electrode and the reference electrode is isolated. The reactive film contains at least on active species that can have a specific redox reaction with the analyte. The first opening exposes the channel trench, and two second openings are located at the two ends of the channel trench.

Abstract: The invention relates to the nucleic acid and polypeptide sequences of five novel human NOC2-related gene variants.
