Abstract: A vehicular air-conditioning apparatus includes a photocatalytic module in which light is radiated on a photocatalytic filter to sterilize the photocatalytic filter. In particular, vehicular air-conditioning apparatus incudes: a duct to allow conditioned air to flow therethrough; the photocatalytic filter mounted in the duct and coated with a photocatalytic material to remove harmful substances in reaction to light energy; and a rotation unit rotatably mounted in the duct. In particular, the rotation unit is provided with a light source to radiate light toward the photocatalytic filter. When the rotation unit is rotated, a position of the light source is changed in a rotational direction of the rotation unit such that the light is radiated on the photocatalytic filter over an increased range. Thus, a filter sterilization effect is improved over the entire area of the photocatalytic filter with reduced number of light sources.

Abstract: An air conditioning device for a vehicle includes: a housing having an inside divided into an inflow space, a heat exchange space, and an outflow space, which are straightly arranged, and having a plurality of discharge ports, which communicates with an interior, at the inflow space; a blowing unit disposed at the inflow space of the housing and configured to blow air; a heat exchange unit disposed at the heat exchange space of the housing and configured to adjust a temperature of conditioned air by exchanging heat with air; and an opening-closing door disposed at the outflow space of the housing and configured to open and close the plurality of discharge ports such that conditioned air at an adjusted temperature selectively flows to the plurality of discharge ports. The air conditioning device adjusts the temperature of conditioned air for respective modes and reduces a flow resistance of air.

Abstract: A seat for a vehicle, includes a second row center seat and a second row side seat provided on a partition wall positioned rearward of a driver seat, the second row center seat may move leftward or rightward, and an interval between the seats may be increased in a state in which the second row center seat is moved in a right direction away from the second row side seat, which makes it possible to maximally prevent body contact between a passenger in the second row center seat and a passenger in the second row side seat.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cushion tip-up type seat for a vehicle. The cushion tip-up type seat for a vehicle is configured to perform a tip-up function of a cushion part, and to move a seat leftward and rightward to adjust an interval between left and right seats, whereby left and right spacing between occupants seated in the seats is sufficiently secured and the convenience of the occupants is improved.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a vehicle rear seat including: a center seat; and side seats located on the left and right of the center seat, wherein, the center seat is capable of protruding by moving the center seat forward with respect to the side seats, and in the state in which the center seat protrudes forward, it is possible to increase an inter-passenger distance so that physical contact between the passenger of the center seat and the passenger of each of the side seats can be prevented as much as possible.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition including a polypeptide, and more particularly, to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating obesity, diabetes, or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The pharmaceutical composition is safe without any side effects such as vomiting or nausea, and has effects of reducing food intake, enhancing insulin secretion, suppressing gastric emptying, promoting lipolysis, and lowering a level of triglycerides.

Abstract: Disclosed is a protein complex, comprising a physiologically active polypeptide, a dimeric protein and a non-peptidyl polymer having three functional ends (3-arm), with the linkage of both the physiologically active polypeptide and the dimeric protein to the 3-arm non-peptidyl polymer via respective covalent bonds. The protein complex guarantees the long acting activity and biostability of a physiologically active polypeptide. Having the ability to maintain the bioactivity of physiologically active polypeptides or peptides highly and to significantly improve the serum half life of the polypeptides or peptides, the protein complex can be applied to the development of sustained release formulations of various physiologically active polypeptide drugs. Also, it utilizes raw materials including the physiologically active polypeptides without significant loss, thereby increasing the production yield. Further, it can be easily purified.

Abstract: An insulin conjugate having improved in vivo duration and stability is provided. The conjugate is prepared by covalently linking insulin with an immunoglobulin Fc region via a non-peptidyl polymer, a long-acting formulation comprising the same, and a preparation method thereof. The insulin conjugate of the present invention maintains in vivo activity of the peptide at a relatively high level and remarkably increases the serum half-life thereof, thereby greatly improving drug compliance upon insulin treatment.
