  • Artificial gene and method for mutating gene
    Patent number: 12630815
    Abstract: An artificial gene has a 15N abundance exceeding a natural abundance in bases of at least a portion of DNA. A method for mutating a gene includes a first step of producing a state in which 15N is unevenly distributed into a prescribed DNA in a living cell; and a second step of irradiation with a proton beam at an energy at which the 15N produces a resonant nuclear reaction.

  • ANTICANCER AGENT, PRODRUG OF ANTICANCER AGENT, METHOD FOR KILLING CANCER CELL IN VITRO, CANCER TREATEMENT METHOD, AND CANCER TREATMENT DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240424103
    Abstract: Provided is an anticancer agent containing a substance that contains nitrogen-15 and that specifically accumulates in a cancer cell. Also provided is a method for killing a cancer cell in vitro, including accumulating nitrogen-15 in a cancer cell in vitro and irradiating the cancer cell with a proton beam in vitro. Additionally provided is a cancer treatment method including causing an accumulation of the nitrogen-15 in a cancer cell in a human or a nonhuman animal and irradiating the human or the nonhuman animal with a proton beam.

  • GAS DISSOLUTION DEVICE AND ALGAE CULTIVATION DEVICE
    Publication number: 20210348106
    Abstract: The gas dissolution device includes a dissolution vessel storing a part of culture solution in a culture vessel, a gas supply pipe connected to a carbon dioxide cylinder and supplying carbon dioxide through an end inserted into the dissolution vessel, a gas discharger provided at the gas supply pipe and turning the carbon dioxide into microbubbles, and a mass flow controller controlling a flowrate of the carbon dioxide flowing in the gas supply pipe. Here, a water depth from the gas discharger to a liquid level of the culture solution in the dissolution vessel is set deeper than a water depth of the culture solution in the culture vessel.
