Abstract: The present invention relates to a DNA array for high throughput and highly efficient solid-based transfection which comprises a plurality of dried spots on a solid support, said dried spot comprises (1) a plasmid DNA to be introduced into cells, (2) a transfection reagent and (3) a cell-adhesion protein and to a high throughput and highly efficient solid-based transfection method to introduce plasmid DNA into cells, using the same.

Abstract: In an inexpensive and convenient method for immobilizing a suspension cell, a phospholipid vesicle or the like regardless of the type of cell, on the surface of a solid phase, a cell is immobilized by causing the cell to contact a support having a hydrophobic chain and a hydrophilic chain.

Abstract: A water solvent extraction degreasing method capable of reducing degreasing time without consideration of abrupt decomposition/vaporization and swelling caused by heat. An organic binder is removed from a molded product that is produced by a powder material mixed with the organic binder and this organic binder contains at least one water-soluble organic compound and at least one water-insoluble thermoplastic resin. The degreasing step of this method includes a water solvent extraction step for extracting the water-soluble organic compound from the organic binder contained in the molded product, using water as a solvent.

Abstract: A low-cost thermal decomposition degreasing method capable of drastically reducing the time required for a degreasing process which involves heating, vaporization and thermal decomposition, while assuring the shape retention property of an injection molded product during degreasing. The degreasing process comprises: (i) a first step wherein a molded product placed under a reduced pressure less than or equal to atmospheric pressure is heated at a temperature lower than the melting point of a thermoplastic binder so that the thermoplastic binder partially evaporates by 5 wt % or more, and then the molded product is further heated at a temperature lower than higher one of the melting points of a more volatile organic compound and a thermoplastic resin whereby the thermoplastic binder further evaporates by 10 wt % or more, and wherein the final temperature is set to 200.degree. C.

Abstract: By the use of a binder comprising (a) 40 to 70 wt % of a water-soluble amide material and/or water-soluble amine material and (b) 25 to 60 wt % of a polyamide resin component substantially composed of a polyamide resin material having 10 carbon atoms or more on average between amido groups, a molded article is produced by metal powder injection molding.From such a molded article, the water-soluble amide material and/or water-soluble amine material is eluted by a water-based solvent and then, the polyamide resin component is removed by heating.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for treating a waste liquid from a wet exhaust gas treating device. In a waste diminishing system which has heretofore been used, a necessary distance of a flue between a spray nozzle and a dry electric dust collector has been within the range of about 30 to about 40 meters. The present invention is characterized by rendering vacant a first chamber of the dry dust collector, or alternatively providing a vacant chamber on the upstream side of the dry dust collector in order to treat an exhaust gas, whereby the length of the aforesaid fue can be reduced to about 10 meters or less.

Abstract: A method for treating an exhaust gas which includes leading a coal-fired exhaust gas to a dry denitrating device, removing oxides of nitrogen from the exhaust gas in the device, leading the exhaust gas to a dry electric dust collector and a wet waste smoke desulfurizing device disposed at downstream positions, and removing dust from the exhaust gas in these devices. A sodium compound containing solution is sprayed into the exhaust gas flowing between the dry denitrating device and the dry electric dust collector thereby increasing the efficiency of the dust collector, and the resulting dry solids are then collected together with the dust by the dry electric dust collector.

Abstract: A method for treating an effluent in an exhaust gas treating apparatus, which method comprises the steps of introducing the exhaust gas into a dry dust collector where a dust contained in the exhaust gas is removed; guiding the exhaust gas to a wet exhaust gas treating device where the exhaust gas is cleaned; and pouring the effluent discharged from the wet exhaust gas treating device into a stream above the dry dust collector where a dry solid matter is collected, characterized in that an amount of the effluent from the wet exhaust gas treating device is adjusted in accordance with a concentration of a halogen or a suspended material in the effluent from the wet exhaust gas treating device.
