Abstract: The present document is directed to promoter sequences and promoter control elements, polynucleotide constructs comprising the promoters and control elements, and methods of identifying the promoters, control elements, or fragments thereof. The document further relates to the use of such promoters or promoter control elements to modulate transcript levels in plants, and plants containing such promoters or promoter control elements.

Abstract: Fabrication of a light emitting device includes etching of a substrate of the light emitting device. The etch may be an aqueous etch sufficient to increase an amount of light extracted through the substrate. The etch may be a direct aqueous etch of a silicon carbide substrate. The etch may remove damage from the substrate that results from other processing of the substrate, such as damage from sawing the substrate. The etch may remove an amorphous region of silicon carbide in the substrate.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for manufacturing an artificial nail. In the method for manufacturing an artificial nail according to the present invention, a flat sheet is molded to have a plurality of artificial nails by means of vacuum molding and is then cut into individual artificial nails by means of press cutting. According to the present invention, a plurality of artificial nails can be manufactured through a single molding operation so that artificial nails can be mass-produced. Further, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing an artificial nail, wherein patterns can be variously and delicately printed on the artificial nails and the artificial nails can be made of a variety of materials including PET resin as well as ABS resin.
