Abstract: A process for the preparation of Labisia pumila extract from Labisia pumila plant material and to obtain an optimized and reproducible chemical profile by high performance liquid chromatography.

Abstract: There is disclosed a standardised aqueous extract of Labisia pumila, as a herbal medicine or as a botanical drug, that can reduce the risk or progression of cardiovascular diseases. This extract addresses factors that influence pathophysiological changes associated with insulin resistance, obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes and aging.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a promoter sequence of light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b binding protein pGWLS01 isolated from the oil palm leaf. This promoter enables the manipulation of oil palm leaves for the production of high value-added products via genetic engineering tools. The novel features of the promoter itself which regulate high and specific expression of foreign genes in the leaves will avoid the interference of novel products in the commodity oil extracted from mesocarp and kernel tissues. Furthermore, the promoter is also potentially useful in the production of insect-resistant palm.

Abstract: In order to eliminate limitation upon the frequency of a carrier wave from externally, this IC chip for identification includes: a power supply section which receives this carrier wave from outside and creates an internal power supply; a clock signal generation section for read out which generates an internal clock signal for read out based upon a clock signal pulse which is superimposed upon an optical signal from externally; a memory section; and an output section which serially reads out data in the memory section according to the internal clock signal for read out, and load modulates the carrier wave from outside based thereupon.

Abstract: Restrictions on the frequency of a carrier signal are removed. This invention comprises a power section for receiving the carrier signal and creating an internal voltage, a clock-generating section for creating an internal clock based on a clock pulse that is carried by the carrier signal, a memory section, a writing section for storing data that is carried on an optical signal in the memory section, and an output section for reading the data in the memory and load-modulating the carrier signal.
