Patent number: 11969712Abstract: A catalyst for purification of exhaust gas in which Pd-based nanoparticles and ceria nanoparticles are supported on a composite metal oxide support containing alumina, ceria, and zirconia, wherein a molar ratio (Ce/Pd) of Ce and Pd supported on the support is 1 to 8, a proximity ? between Pd and Ce is 0.15 to 0.50, wherein the proximity ? is determined, based on Pd and Ce distribution maps in an element mapping image of energy dispersive X-ray analysis, by the following formula (1): ? = ? j = 0 N - 1 ? ? i = 0 M - 1 ? ( ( I ? ( i , j ) - I ave ) ? ( T ? ( i , j ) - T ave ) ) ? j = 0 N - 1 ? ? i = 0 M - 1 ? ( I ? ( i , j ) - I ave ) 2 - ? j = 0 N - 1 ? ? i = 0 M - 1 ? ( T ? ( i , j ) - T ave ) 2 , ( 1 ) a Pd dispersity after a heat-resistance test at 1050° C. for 25 hours is 0.8% or more.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Naoki Kumatani, Akira Morikawa, Masaoki Iwasaki, Miho Hatanaka, Taizo Yoshinaga, Masahide Miura, Takahiro Hayashi

Publication number: 20120322111Abstract: the present invention provides an amplification method capable of inhibiting the generating of the undesired amplified double-stranded DNA sequence. In the present method, DNA polymerase, deoxynucleoside triphosphate, the double-stranded DNA, a forward primer, a reverse primer, and a first block nucleic acid are mixed so as to amplify the double-stranded target sequence with use of a polymerase chain reaction. The first block nucleic acid does not serve as an origin for the elongation reaction with the DNA polymerase. The first block nucleic acid is complementary with a part of the third non-amplified sequence which is interposed between the 5? end and the complimentary single-stranded target sequence. Due to the first block nucleic acid, the generating of the undesired amplified double-stranded DNA sequence is inhibited.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2012Publication date: December 20, 2012Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Miho Hayashi, Hidenobu Yaku

Publication number: 20110256572Abstract: A plate on which a channel pattern is formed, which channel pattern includes a first channel into which a buffer agent is injected, and a second channel having, in a portion thereof, a quantification part that has a portion common to the first channel and holds a predetermined amount of a biological sample, the biological sample being injected into the channel including the quantification part, and the plate is rotated at a high speed by a filling unit to fill the buffer agent in the first channel, and thereafter, the second channel is pressurized by a discrimination unit to fill the biological sample in the second channel, and simultaneously, a predetermined amount of the biological sample is added into the buffer agent. Therefore, when performing discrimination of the biological sample, a discrimination result can be obtained accurately in a short time without the necessity of complicated preparation works.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2011Publication date: October 20, 2011Inventors: Yoshinori AMANO, Hideaki Hashimoto, Takeshi Nishida, Kazuyoshi Mori, Ryuuji Shimizu, Hiroshi Andou, Kenji Nakanishi, Naoki Yanagihara, Miho Hayashi

Publication number: 20110229939Abstract: The present invention relates to a nested PCR with high specificity. The present invention provides a method for amplifying a target sequence (1), and the method demonstrates high efficiency of amplification of the single stranded target sequence and a significant effect on inhibiting nonspecific amplifications. In one embodiment, at the second stage of a nested PCR, an outer forward block nucleic acid (4ofb) which is complementary to an outer forward primer (4of) and which is unable to be an origin of a DNA extension reaction by the DNA polymerase is added.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2010Publication date: September 22, 2011Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: HIDENOBU YAKU, MIHO HAYASHI

Patent number: 7887690Abstract: A ligand DNA including a probe portion having a sequence that is complementary to a target DNA to be detected in a sample DNA, and a probe portion having a base sequence that is complementary to a base sequence of a marker DNA 2 in a conjugate DNA 10 is formed, and the sample DNA and the ligand DNA are combined to form a DNA complex, and further, the DNA complex is made to perform electrophoresis in the conjugate DNA. Therefore, it is possible to provide a DNA separation detection method which can appropriately separate the sample DNA and deal with various kinds of target sample DNAs in short time, without the necessity of searching for an optimum electrophoresis condition by complicatedly combining the amount of a bonding control agent to be contained in the conjugate DNA, the viscosity of linear polymer, the amount of the sample DNA, the amount of the conjugate DNA, and the like, for each DNA sequence as a detection target, when separating the sample DNA by electrophoresis.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2006Date of Patent: February 15, 2011Assignee: Panasonic CorporationInventors: Miho Hayashi, Kazuyoshi Mori, Mizuo Maeda
