  • Patent number: 9999698
    Abstract: An olfactory display includes a housing and a plurality of fragrance chambers formed in the housing. In each fragrance chamber, a solid-like fragrance source is accommodated and an airflow source is provided to send air into the fragrance chamber from an air intake port. An auxiliary airflow source that emits odorless air is also provided in the housing. The airflow source and the auxiliary airflow source are operated alternately or simultaneously. In response to a user operating an adjustment knob of a controller, operating time periods and stopping time periods of the airflow source and the auxiliary airflow source are changed, or the number of operating times is changed within a predetermined operating time period. A mixing ratio of the fragrance and the odorless air may also be adjusted by changing a voltage value of an alternating voltage to be applied to a piezoelectric device of the airflow source.

  • Publication number: 20180071405
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for inducing an inversion of normal blood coagulation factor VIII (F8) gene, a method for correcting an inversion of blood coagulation factor VIII gene in which the inversion has occurred, and a Hemophilia A patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cell in which the inversion is corrected, constructed using the same. The method of the present invention effectively reproduces the inversion of intron 1 and intron 22 of the F8 gene, which is responsible for the majority of severe hemophilia A, and thereby may be effectively used for studying the development mechanism of hemophilia A and as a research tool for screening therapeutic agents. The inversion-corrected induced pluripotent stem cell constructed according the method of the present invention enables an efficient and fundamental treatment for hemophilia A by restoring a genotype in which mutation has occurred to a wild type-like state, without limitation via normal gene or protein delivery.
