  • Patent number: 11931431
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for diagnosing and treating prostate cancer, capable of targeting PSMA, and a compound provided by one aspect of the present invention has a glutamine-urea-lysine compound to which a radioactive metal-coupled chelator is structurally coupled and to which an aryl group that can additionally bind to PSMA protein is coupled. Coupling between the glutamine-urea-lysine compound and the chelator includes a polar spacer so as to serve the role of reducing in vivo nonspecific coupling and exhibit an effect of being rapidly removed from vital organs, but not from prostate cancer. These characteristics lower the radiation exposure, which is caused by a therapeutic radioisotope-coupled compound, to normal tissue and organs, and thus reduce side effects. In addition, a compound that contains a phenyl group having a coupling force with albumin has an increased residence time in the blood, thereby becoming more accumulated in prostate cancer.

  • Patent number: 7920666
    Abstract: A safety injection tank, used for quickly injecting emergency core cooling water (ECCW) to a reactor vessel in the case of a cold leg large break accident (CLLBA) in a pressurized water reactor (PWR), is disclosed. The safety injection tank has a gravity-driven fluidic device configured to efficiently change the ECCW injection mode from a high flow injection mode to a low flow injection mode. The gravity-driven fluidic device includes a spring placed in the upper end of the vertical pipe, and a vertically movable water tub placed on the spring so as to be movable in a vertical direction. When ECCW contained in the pressure vessel is discharged and the water level is reduced lower than the height of the tub, the tub is moved downwards such that the lower surface thereof comes into contact with the vertical pipe and closes the high flow inlet port.

  • Patent number: 6174591
    Abstract: Separators with direct heating medium and method for manufacturing thermally curable laminates thereof. Metal separators used in a book to separate board from board after lamination are engineered to incorporate a thin metal layer or multiple circuits as an electrical heating medium. The electrically heatable separators can then heat the boards directly in contact with individual boards, so that the temperature differences among the boards in a book as well as in an individual board are minimized. This reduction of the difference in temperature minimizes the characteristic difference in chemorheology of the thermally curable bonding sheets. Laminates manufactured by this process exhibit low levels of variation in physical properties, making it suitable for printed circuit board of high density integration.
