  • IMAGE READING DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240128294
    Abstract: An image reading device includes a plurality of light receiving parts arrayed regularly, a first light blocking member including a plurality of first openings arrayed corresponding respectively to the plurality of light receiving parts, and a plurality of microlenses arrayed corresponding respectively to the plurality of first openings. Each light receiving part included in the plurality of light receiving parts includes a plurality of light receiving pixels arrayed in a first direction as a main scanning direction. Each microlens included in the plurality of microlenses is object side telecentric. The plurality of microlenses, the first light blocking member and the plurality of light receiving parts are arranged so that light reflected by an object and passing through the microlens and the first opening corresponding to the microlens enters the plurality of light receiving pixels included in the light receiving part corresponding to the first opening.

  • Vector including a translation-impaired dihydrofolate reductase gene cassette and ubiquitously acting chromatin opening element
    Patent number: 11781146
    Abstract: The present invention provides mammalian cell expression vectors that impart to mammalian host cells an ability to produce high levels of foreign gene-derived proteins. A ubiquitously acting chromatin opening element (UCOE) is introduced into an expression vector that has a plasmid DNA integrated into a transcriptional hot spot on the chromosome of a dihydrofolate reductase gene-deficient host cell so that it allows for selection of strains that grow in hypoxanthine-thymidine (hereinafter denoted as HT)-free medium, whereby transformants will produce a protein of interest in increased amounts.
