  • Publication number: 20240120224
    Abstract: A semiconductor manufacturing equipment may include a process chamber for treating a substrate; a front-end module including a first transfer robot, wherein the first transfer robot may be configured to transport the substrate received in a container; a transfer chamber between the front-end module and the process chamber, wherein the transfer chamber may be configured to load or unload the substrate into or out of the process chamber; and a cassette capable of receiving a replaceable component capable of being used in the process chamber. The front-end module may include a seat plate configured to move in a sliding manner so as to retract or extend into or from the front-end module. The cassette may be configured to be loaded into the front-end module while the cassette is seated on the seat plate.

  • Patent number: 11618916
    Abstract: A probe for measuring the activity of caspase-1 according to the present disclosure can specifically image cells or tissues where inflammatory response is induced because it is cleaved by reacting specifically with the active caspase-1 enzyme in vivo and in vitro and re-emits fluorescence. The probe for measuring the activity of caspase-1 can be used for various purposes, such as for imaging of cells or tissues where inflammatory response is induced, as a drug carrier, for screening of a drug inhibiting inflammatory response, etc. The probe for measuring the activity of caspase-1 is applicable both in vivo and in vitro, and can be used for various applications such as high-throughput screening for new drug development, early diagnosis of diseases, etc.

  • Patent number: 9718860
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a complex of a protein comprising zinc oxide-binding peptides and zinc oxide nanoparticles, to the use thereof as a drug delivery carrier for manufacturing medicines, and to a vaccine composition and a contrast agent comprising the composite. The protein comprising zinc oxide-binding peptides significantly improves the in vivo availability of zinc oxide-binding peptides, and therefore the complex of the present invention can be used not only as a drug delivery carrier for in vivo drug delivery or intracellular drug delivery, but also for in vivo imaging or cell imaging. The complex can be used for producing separating agents for effectively separating biological materials, therapeutic agents for hyperthermia, etc., contrast agents for MRI, and beads applicable to biosensors.
