Patent number: 11953502Abstract: The present invention relates to an epitope of a thioredoxin-1 (Trx1) antigen and a use thereof, and more particularly, to the epitope, and an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment binding thereto. The epitope region of the human Trx1 antigen confirmed in the present invention may be effectively used in the development of an improved antibody to enhance the binding affinity of an anti-Trx1 antibody. In addition, the improved antibody of the present invention is effective in improvement of performance of a breast cancer diagnosis kit due to excellent binding affinity for Trx1 and very high sensitivity and specificity, compared to a conventional anti-Trx1 antibody. Further, the accuracy and reliability of breast cancer diagnosis may significantly increase because exceptionally high sensitivity and specificity are exhibited by detecting the monoclonal antibody of the present invention, which specifically binds to Trx1, rather than detecting CA15-3, another conventional breast cancer diagnostic biomarker.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2018Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: E&S HEALTHCARE CO., LTD.Inventors: Kyong Hoon Suh, Dae Joong Kim, Young Kim, Mi Kyung Kim, Jong Hwan Jung, Ki Se Lee

Publication number: 20230039427Abstract: Novel chemical sensors that improve detection and quantification of CO2 are critical to ensuring safe and cost-effective monitoring of carbon storage sites. Fiber optic (FO) based chemical sensor systems are promising field-deployable systems for real-time monitoring of CO2 in geological formations for long-range distributed sensing. In this work, a mixed-matrix composite integrated FO sensor system was developed that reliably operates as a detector for gas-phase and dissolved CO2. A mixed-matrix composite sensor coating on the FO sensor comprising plasmonic nanocrystals and zeolite embedded in a polymer matrix. The mixed-matrix composite FO sensor showed excellent reversibility/stability in a high humidity environment and sensitivity to gas-phase CO2 over a large concentration range. The sensor exhibited the ability to sense CO2 in the presence of other geologically relevant gases, which is of importance for applications in geological formations.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2022Publication date: February 9, 2023Inventors: Ki-Joong Kim, Jeffrey T.
