    Abstract: A compression ignition engine includes an engine body, a first fuel supply for supplying a first fuel, a second fuel supply for supplying a second fuel, and a controller for outputting a signal to each of the first and second fuel supplies. The second fuel less easily vaporizes than the first fuel, and has a pressure and temperature at which compression ignition is initiated and at least one of which is lower than that of the first fuel. The controller outputs a signal to the first fuel supply such that a weight of the supplied first fuel is larger than that of the supplied second fuel, and thereafter, outputs a signal to the second fuel supply such that the second fuel is supplied to a combustion chamber. A formed air-fuel mixture is compressed and ignited.

  • Publication number: 20200157184
    Abstract: Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) biosensors for assessing the intracellular localization, internalization and trafficking into cellular compartments of proteins such as receptors, and other biomolecules such as second messengers, are disclosed. These biosensors, which are dependent on the concentration/density of the BRET donor and acceptor in cellular compartments rather that specific protein-protein interactions, use a Renilla GFP/Luc BRET pair, which allows the robust and reproducible monitoring of protein trafficking/localization, with a sensitivity compatible with high-throughput screening (HTS). The use of these biosensors for various applications, including assessing/monitoring protein endocytosis, recycling and intracellular trafficking, receptor maturation/rescue by pharmacological chaperones, various endocytosis/exocytosis processes, activation/inhibition, as well as biomolecule concentration/density in different cellular compartments, is also disclosed.
