Abstract: An extrusion die includes a die and a core, and the core includes a movable core portion that is movable along an extrusion direction and a fixed core portion. The movable core portion has non-similar cross-sectional shapes at front and rear two positions along the extrusion direction. A first portion of the elongated weather strip is molded in a state where the movable core portion is disposed at an advance position, and a second portion of the elongated weather strip is molded in a state where the movable core portion is disposed at a retreat position. During the molding of the second portion, a supply amount per unit time of a material for the sealing portion to a molding space for the hollow sealing portion that is secured between the core and the die is set to be larger than that during the molding of the first portion.

Abstract: The weather strip configured to be attached to the automobile body opening portion is an elongated member having a length configured to correspond to a side portion and a corner portion of the automobile body opening portion and includes a hollow sealing portion. A surface of the sealing portion corresponding to a floor-side side portion and a surface of the sealing portion corresponding to a floor-side corner portion are continuous to each other. A wall thickness of the sealing portion corresponding to the floor-side side portion is set to be smaller than a wall thickness of the sealing portion corresponding to the floor-side corner portion. The sealing portion corresponding to the floor-side side portion includes a portion having a smallest wall thickness among the entire sealing portion.

Abstract: A fluorescent probe for measuring magnesium ion, which can selectively form a complex with magnesium ion in aqueous system is disclosed.

Abstract: A method of making a two-dimensional measurement of the concentration of a biological macromolecule aqueous solution and an apparatus for carrying out this method are disclosed. By charging the biological macromolecule aqueous solution and an aqueous crystallizing agent solution into a crystallizing cell, irradiating the crystallizing cell with an ultraviolet light from an ultraviolet light source, two-dimensionally scanning the ultraviolet light transmitted through the crystallizing cell by a linear image sensor to detect the quantity of the transmitted light, and carrying out a conversion of the detected quantity of the transmitted light to the protein concentration, the process of a crystallization of the biological macromolecule from biological macromolecule aqueous solution can be easily and accurately twodimensionally measured.
