Abstract: A horseshoe crab Factor C protein having activity of Factor C, wherein the horseshoe crab is selected from Tachypleus tridentatus, Limulus polyphemus, and Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda, and wherein the horseshoe crab Factor C protein is produced through being recombinantly expressed from a Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) DG44 cell or HEK cell.

Abstract: Provided is a technology related to a horseshoe crab factor B variant, and also provided is means for performing endotoxin measurement with high sensitivity. A polypeptide having an amino acid sequence in which the amino acid residue at the 193-position in an amino acid sequence of a polypeptide of horseshoe crab factor B is substituted with a cysteine (Cys) residue, is produced. Endotoxin measurement can be carried out with high sensitivity by configuring a Limulus reagent by combining this polypeptide with horseshoe crab factor C.

Abstract: An ammonothermal growth of group-III nitride crystals on starting seed crystals with at least two surfaces making an acute, right or obtuse angle, i.e., greater than 0 degrees and less than 180 degrees, with respect to each other, such that the exposed surfaces together form a concave surface.

Abstract: A method of obtaining a hexagonal würtzite type epitaxial layer with a low impurity concentration of alkali-metal by using a hexagonal würtzite substrate possessing a higher impurity concentration of alkali-metal, wherein a surface of the substrate upon which the epitaxial layer is grown has a crystal plane which is different from the c-plane.

Abstract: First and second ridge portions at the foremost end of a flexible pipe are pressed into first and second enlarged-diameter ridge portions, respectively, each having an external diameter larger than the internal diameter of a rotary nipple and smaller than the front-end root diameter of a taper external thread of the rotary nipple. The back surface of the second enlarged-diameter ridge portion is brought into contact with a front-end surface of the rotary nipple. A rubber seal ring is fitted into each of a first and second root portion of the flexible pipe, respectively, and an aligning ring is fitted into each of a third root portion of the flexible pipe located on the front-end side thereof from the first root portion and a fourth root portion of the flexible pipe located on the back side thereof from the second root portion, respectively.

Abstract: A file management method is used to display an index file having a frame structure made up of a plurality of windows by a browser which does not support a frame function. The file management method includes the steps of specifying, as a base target, at least one specific window within the index file, and including contents of the specific window in a non-frame tag part of the index file, so as to eliminate the need to manage two kinds of files and to simplify the file management.

Abstract: When a control unit is in a non-operating (non-printing) state, data to be saved (character-image data) in a RAM cache memory is transferred to a disk cache memory at regular intervals in order of priority, thereby saving the data in the disk cache memory. If a power supply is cut off and then power is reintroduced, high-priority character-image data, which has been transferred from the RAM cache memory to the disk cache memory and saved in the disk cache memory when printing is not being carried out, is restored in the RAM cache memory. As a result, the high-priority data saved in the RAM cache memory when the power supply was cut off can be restored in the RAM cache memory, thereby raising the hit rate.
