  • Patent number: 11237153
    Abstract: A method predicts an amount of an analyte in a urine specimen collected in a target time zone. The method includes measuring an amount of an analyte in a urine specimen collected in a predetermined time zone after an administration of a chelating agent and b) predicting, from the measured amount of the analyte in the urine specimen collected in the predetermined time zone, the amount of the analyte in the urine specimen collected in the target time zone on the basis of a correlation between amounts of analyte in urine specimens in the predetermined time zone and amounts of analyte in urine specimens in the target time zone. The amounts of the analyte in the urine specimens in the predetermined time and the target time zone are measured before predicting the amount of the analyte in the urine specimen collected in the target time zone.

  • Patent number: 7210850
    Abstract: A hydrodynamic bearing device includes a sleeve having a bearing bore substantially at a center portion, a shaft inserted in the bearing bore in a rotatable manner, a thrust plate for supporting an end of the shaft in the thrust direction and an upper retaining portion that has an opening portion through which the shaft passes and covers the upper surface of the sleeve. A radial hydrodynamic bearing is formed between the bearing bore of the sleeve and the shaft, while a thrust hydrodynamic bearing is formed between the thrust plate and an end of the shaft. A first space is formed between the upper surface of the sleeve and the upper retaining portion. A second space is formed between the upper retaining portion and a step portion.

  • Patent number: 7141627
    Abstract: An epoxy resin cured article has a high glass transition temperature and low dissipation factor. An epoxy resin composition from which the cured article can be having excellent solubility in solvents is used to produce the cured articles. A polyester as a curing agent of an epoxy resin composition having an aromatic polyhydroxy coumpound residue including an aryloxycarbonyl group at the molecule of the terminal, an aromatic polyvalent hydrocarbon group residue, and bulky structure, is used. Since the curing agent behaves as a polyfunctional curing agent, a cured article produced therefrom has a high crosslink density. Since highly polar hydroxyl groups are not formed during curing, a cured article has high glass transition temperature and a low dissipation factor. The cured article does not release low molecular weight carboxylic acids though hydrolysis of ester bonds at crosslinked bonds.
