Abstract: Provided is a method for liberating sugar chains from a glycoprotein, including: a step of brining a reaction solution which contains hydroxylamines (a) and a basic reagent (b) into contact with the glycoprotein to obtain a mixed solution of sugar chains liberated from the glycoprotein and the reaction solution.

Abstract: Provided are a method for preparing a glycan from a glycoprotein, and a kit and a device for preparing a glycan from a glycoprotein. The method includes (I) a step of obtaining a glycan-containing sample by bringing a glycan releasing solution that contains a hydroxylamine compound and a basic reagent into contact with the glycoprotein and releasing the glycan from the glycoprotein; (II) a step of adsorbing a glycan having a length of a monosaccharide or more on a purifying agent for purifying the glycan by bringing the glycan-containing sample into contact with the purifying agent, which is composed of a compound having a betaine structure; and (III) a step of eluting the glycan from the purifying agent.

Abstract: A purification agent which includes a compound having a betaine structure, and which is for a sugar chain having a length equal to or longer than that of a monosaccharide or for a glycopeptide having a sugar chain having a length equal to or longer than that of a monosaccharide.

Abstract: A diagnostic marker for digestive organ cancer according to the present invention is used for determining whether or not to have a digestive organ cancer. The diagnostic marker for digestive organ cancer contains at least one of N-binding type sugar chains released from a glycoprotein contained in blood and represented by the following formulas (1) to (6). This makes it possible to provide a diagnostic marker for digestive organ cancer capable of being used for an inspection method of easily determining whether or not to have a digestive organ cancer at an early stage, and an inspection method for digestive organ cancer of easily determining whether or not to have a digestive organ cancer at an early stage.

Abstract: The transmission terminal in a wireless communication system includes: a communication unit for intermittently transmitting a radio signal; a transmission-side beacon reception unit; a beacon analysis unit for analyzing the received beacon signal; and a transmission output level change unit for estimating an emission time period of a beacon signal to be received by the transmission-side beacon reception unit on the basis of the beacon period information and the beacon reception time information, thereby obtaining an estimated emission time period; wherein the transmission output level change unit instructs the transmission-side communication unit to transmit the radio signal having a raised transmission output level during at least the estimated emission time period, the raised transmission output level being higher than a transmission output level during a time period other than at least the estimated emission time period.

Abstract: In a communication system in which a transmitting device transmits a video signal to a receiving device, one or both of these devices includes a beacon analyzer that analyzes beacon signals transmitted by other wireless systems operating in the same frequency band and predicts periods during which beacon transmission is expected. During these predicted periods, video transmission is suspended and the video signal is stored in a buffer in the transmitting device. At the end of each predicted period, the stored video signal is read from the buffer and transmitted without horizontal and vertical blanking periods until the buffering delay is made up. The receiving device displays the received video signal with standard video timing. A normal unbroken video picture is thereby obtained despite beacon interference.
