  • Patent number: 11668024
    Abstract: A polar solvent solution of the present invention is a polar solvent solution in which a solute containing a polyamine acid is dissolved in a polar solvent. The solution has a moisture content of less than 5 mass % based on 100 mass % of the solution. A method for producing a polar solvent solution of the present invention includes changing a moisture content of the solution to adjust the viscosity of the solution. Further, another method for producing a polar solvent solution includes reducing a moisture content of the solution to increase the viscosity of the solution. Thus, the present invention provides a polar solvent solution that enables stable spinning and casting without lowering its viscosity when used as dopes for spinning, film, etc., and methods for producing the same.

  • Publication number: 20210292752
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for isolating or identifying target clone cells from a cell population, the method including steps of: preparing a cell population into which a barcode sequence and at least one reporter protein abnormal expression cassette linked to the barcode sequence are introduced; introducing a barcode sequence recognition module targeting an arbitrary barcode sequence and a nucleic acid mutation repair enzyme into cells; repairing a nucleic acid mutation causing abnormal expression occurring in the at least one reporter protein abnormal expression cassette by expression of a complex of the barcode sequence recognition module and the nucleic acid mutation repair enzyme in a cell containing the target barcode sequence, to induce normal expression of the reporter protein; and isolating or identifying target clone cells in which the reporter protein is expressed.

  • Patent number: 10975206
    Abstract: A polar solvent solution of the present invention is a polar solvent solution in which a solute containing a polyamine acid is dissolved in a polar solvent. An inorganic salt is added to the solution, and a mole ratio of moisture to the inorganic salt in the solution is 2.5×m×n or less, where m represents the number of cations forming the inorganic salt and n represents a charge number of the cation. A production method of the present invention is a method for producing the above solution, including: changing at, least one of a moisture content and a content of the inorganic salt in the solution to adjust a viscosity of the solution. Thus, the present invention provides a polar solvent solution whose viscosity can be easily adjusted to a desired value and thus enables stable spinning and casting when used as dopes for spinning, film, etc., and methods for producing the same.
