Abstract: The present invention is to provide an adhesive composition which comprises a copolymer A which contains a recurring unit having a cyclic ether structure and a recurring unit having a benzophenone structure, and a copolymer B which contains a recurring unit having a betaine structure and a recurring unit having a hydroxyl group, a cured product thereof, and a method for producing the cured product. The adhesive composition of the present invention is capable of curing in water, has high hydrophilicity, and is capable of forming a cured product having an excellent ability to inhibit adhesion of biological substances.

Abstract: Provided is a highly sensitive and less expensive lectin-immobilized base material (for example, a lectin plate), such as lectin-immobilized base material having stable qualities and being able to be sufficiently washed after a target sugar chain-containing antigen binds thereto. Further provided is a method for immobilizing lectin to a base material therefor. Particularly provided are: a method whereby a lectin-peptide fusion, in which a peptide capable of adsorbing to a base material surface such as a polystyrene (PS) tag is fused with the N-terminal side or C-terminal side of lectin capable of recognizing a target sugar chain, is immobilized on the peptide side to a base material; and a lectin-immobilized base material produced by this method. By using the lectin-immobilized base material, a target sugar chain-containing antigen can be highly sensitively and evenly measured and, moreover, target sugar chain-containing cells, etc. can be separated (concentrated and harvested).

Abstract: The invention provides a coating agent for a flow passage which comprises a copolymer containing a recurring unit which contains an organic group of the formula (a) wherein Ua1 and Ua2 are defined herein, and a recurring unit which contains an organic group of the formula (b) wherein Ub1, Ub2, Ub3, and An? are defined herein. The invention also provides a flow passage device having the coating agent for a flow passage on at least part of an inner surface of a flow passage, a platelet-producing flow passage device and a method for manufacturing the same.

Abstract: A purpose of the present invention is to provide a highly sensitive and less expensive lectin-immobilized base material (for example, a lectin plate), said lectin-immobilized base material having stable qualities and being able to be sufficiently washed after a target sugar chain-containing antigen binds thereto.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a polydimethylsiloxane substrate to which a peptide having an affinity for polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is bound; a method for immobilizing a target protein on a polydimethylsiloxane substrate; a peptide having an affinity for PDMS; a polynucleotide encoding a peptide having an affinity for PDMS; and a vector using thereof. A polydimethylsiloxane substrate to which a peptide having an affinity for polydimethylsiloxane is bound, the peptide comprising the following peptide (1a) or (1b), or a fragment thereof: (1a) a peptide comprising an amino acid sequence represented by at least one member selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 9; and (1b) a peptide comprising the amino acid sequence of (1a) in which one or more amino acids are deleted, substituted, and/or added, the peptide having an affinity for polydimethylsiloxane.

Abstract: A photoactive compound is used in combination with a photosensitizer, represented by the following formula (1): A-[(J)m-(X-Pro)]n??(1) wherein A represents a hydrophobic unit comprising at least one kind of hydrophobic groups selected from a hydrocarbon group and a heterocyclic group, J represents a connecting group, X-Pro represents a hydrophilic group protected by a protective group Pro which is removable by light exposure, m represents 0 or 1, and n represents an integer of not less than 1. The protective group Pro may be removable by light exposure in association with the photosensitizer (especially, a photo acid generator), or may be a hydrophobic protective group. The hydrophilic group may be a hydroxyl group or a carboxyl group. The photoactive compound has high sensitivity to a light source of short wavelength beams, for resist application, therefore, the photoactive compound is advantageously used for forming a pattern with high resolution.
