  • Publication number: 20210096080
    Abstract: Disclosed is a test strip for detecting microalbumin in urine, and more particularly a test strip for detecting microalbumin in urine that contains a synthetic albumin indicator, a buffer solution, a surfactant and a polymer (sensitizer) and thus exhibits high sensitivity. The albumin detection test strip has accuracy sufficient to enable clear observation of color change from colorless to blue through the albumin indicator, and improves the detection limit (increases sensitivity) to thereby enable detection of microalbuminuria at a concentration of 20 mg/L or less. The albumin test detection strip contains a surfactant and a polymer in addition to a synthetic albumin indicator, thereby incorporating separate first and second processes into a single process and having effects of reducing costs, improving processing convenience, and increasing solubility and miscibility.

  • Publication number: 20200108096
    Abstract: A method for culturing natural killer cells uses genetically modified T cells. The method for culturing natural killer cells, using genetically modified T cells enables the effective proliferation and production of natural killer cells from a smaller amount of source cells. In addition, the method enhances the cytolytic activity of natural killer cells. Therefore, the method for culturing natural killer cells, using genetically modified T cells may be suitable for various applications in commercializing cell therapy products. Further, the natural killer cells produced by the culturing method can be useful as a cell therapy product.

  • Patent number: 10203121
    Abstract: An air conditioner (AC) indoor unit includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet; a heat exchanger arranged inside the housing; a blower fan for sucking in air at the inlet to be subject to heat exchange with the heat exchanger, and discharging the heat-exchanged air out of the outlet; and an air flow control device for controlling an air flow discharged from the outlet by sucking in air around the outlet. The AC indoor unit may control the direction of a discharged air flow without a conventional blade structure, thereby increasing an amount of discharged air, reducing circulation noise, and enabling design differentiation.
