  • Publication number: 20020102213
    Abstract: A plurality of immunofluorescent reactions on the same brain specimen is analyzed and imaged correlatively at the cellular level. Information at a plurality of points on a tissue sample 9 is measured using a photometer 7 while two-dimensionally moving a scanning stage 5 on which the tissue sample 9 is placed. The measured signals are input to a memory 29 and stored therein, and a tissue map is created by obtaining two-dimensional information for the sample 9 from the memory 29. After reacting a reagent A′ specific to a substance A with the tissue sample to be mapped, a distribution image of the reaction areas of the reagent A′ is created by scanning the sample in the two-dimensional directions, and, after reacting a reagent B′ specific to a substance B with the same sample, a distribution image of the reaction areas of the reagent B′ is created by scanning the sample in the two-dimensional directions.

  • Patent number: 6206671
    Abstract: A pressure molding apparatus comprises a furnace defining a heating space for accommodating a mold assembly including a mold body charged with a raw material to be molded, and a pressure piston for pressurizing the raw material; heating means for heating the heating space; and load imposing means for imposing a load on the pressure piston to mold the raw material. The load imposing means includes at least one weight means and weight supporting means. The weight supporting means is selectively set in a load-free state in which the weight supporting means supports the weight means so that the weight of the weight means is not imposed on the pressure piston, and a load imposed state in which the weight supporting means releases the support of the weight means so that the weight of the weight means is imposed on the pressure piston.

  • Patent number: 5919339
    Abstract: A rotary evaporator of the present invention has an insertion area of a rotary joint 33 in a straight shape. This area is movably inserted to a motor rotor 27 of a motor by a sleeve 31 or 31' in an axial direction. Bushes 57 are inserted between the rotary joint 33 and the sleeve 31 or 31' for integrating the rotary joint 33 and the sleeve 31 or 31' by a fastening force generated by a fastening cap 61 or 61' engaged with a screw section of the sleeve 31 or 31'. With the above-described structure, when the outer peripheral surface of the rotary joint 33 is abraded by a sealing member 43, the fastening cap 61 is loosened and the rotary joint 33 is slightly moved to the axial direction so that the rotary joint 33 is moved to an appropriate or an optimum position along the axial direction.
