Abstract: The present invention relates to an anti-VAMP2 antibody that inhibits SNARE complex and uses thereof, and more specifically, the present invention relates to an anti-VAMP2 antibody or antigen-binding fragments thereof comprising heavy and light chain CDRs of a specific sequence. The anti-VAMP2 antibody is expected to be useful for improving or treating skin wrinkles by inhibiting SNARE complex formation.

Abstract: A dual set-up zoom actuator includes a first carrier having a first lens and movable along an optical axis, a second carrier having a second lens and being capable of moving anterior or posterior to the first carrier along the optical axis, a housing enclosing the first and second carriers, a first coil unit equipped to the housing and having n, which is a natural number not less than two, first coils disposed anterior or posterior along the optical axis, a second coil unit equipped to the housing at a location different than the first coil unit and having n+1 second coils disposed anterior or posterior along the optical axis, a first magnet having n+1 magnetic poles facing the first coil unit and mounted on the first carrier, and a second magnet having n magnetic poles facing the second coil unit and mounted on the second carrier.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for pre-detecting a defective porous polymer substrate for a separator, including selecting a porous polymer substrate having a plurality of pores; observing the selected porous polymer substrate with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to obtain an image of the porous polymer substrate; quantifying the average value of pore distribution index (PDI); correcting the quantified average value of pore distribution index to obtain the corrected average value of pore distribution index; determining whether or not the corrected average value of pore distribution index is 60 a.u. (arbitrary unit) or less; and classifying the porous polymer substrate as a good product, when the corrected average value of pore distribution index is determined to be 60 a.u. or less, and classifying the porous polymer substrate as a defective product, when the corrected average value of pore distribution index is determined to be larger than 60 a.u.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrolyte for a secondary battery that includes an ionic liquid containing an ether functional group, thereby providing effects of lowering the viscosity and improving lithium ion conductivity even when a molecular weight is increased.

Abstract: Disclosed are a pyrrolidinium type sulphonated zwitterion, a method of preparing the same, a lithium salt prepared by using the same, a method of preparing the salt, an electrolytic composition containing the salt and a lithium secondary battery including the electrolytic composition. Since the pyrrolidinium type sulphonated zwitterions prepared according to the invention are thermally and electrochemically stable, the lithium salt prepared by using the same exhibits a lower hygroscopicity than the conventional lithium salts and strong thermal and electrochemical stabilities. When the lithium salt of the invention is dissolved in an organic solvent independently or together with the ionic liquid, excellent conductivity and electrochemical stability are exhibited. Accordingly, the lithium salt of the invention is very suitable for the electrolyte of the lithium secondary battery.
