  • Publication number: 20240192245
    Abstract: An automatic analysis device according to the present embodiment includes a processor. The processor calculates the liquid level height in a reaction tube, based on a scheduled dispensing amount of liquid to be dispensed into the reaction tube. The processor detects whether there is an abnormality in a dispensing operation in which liquid is dispensed into the reaction tube, based on a measured liquid level height in the reaction tube and a calculated liquid level height in the reaction tube.

  • Publication number: 20150098990
    Abstract: The present invention concerns methods and compositions that employ peptides that target dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. In particular, the peptides are used to target therapeutic agents, such as proteins, liposomes, or viral particles comprising therapeutic polynucleotides, to one or more peripheral neuropathies or neuropathic pain, for example. In particular cases, the peripheral neuropathies or neuropathic pain is caused directly or indirectly by DRG neuronopathy.
