    Abstract: [PROBLEMS] To provide a method for preparation of recombinant proteoliposomes suitable for diagnostic applications, a detection plate coated with the recombinant proteoliposomes, a detection kit and so on. [PROBLEM-SOLVING MEANS] Recombinant proteoliposomes are prepared by fusion of budded virus particles of a recombinant baculovirus, expressing a target membrane receptor (such as human thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor, acetylcholine receptor, insulin receptor, ?1 adrenergic receptor, asialoglycoprotein receptor, etc., each participating in an autoantibody-related disease), with liposomes. Compared with the recombinant baculoviruses, these proteoliposomes have an improved ability to bind to an autoantibody and makes it possible to produce easily a kit for its detection.

  • Publication number: 20120241689
    Abstract: A flexible conductive material includes an elastomer, a conductive agent filled in the elastomer, and an adsorbent fixed inside the elastomer and able to adsorb ionic material. With the flexible conductive material, ionized impurities are unlikely to transfer to an adherend such as a dielectric film. Thus, leakage current during application of voltage decreases. Accordingly, by forming an electrode and a wiring with the flexible conductive material, leakage current can be reduced, and a transducer and a flexible wiring board having excellent durability can be produced. In addition, using the flexible conductive material, an electromagnetic shield can be produced having a small leakage current.
