Abstract: Disclosed is a hot stamping device and method for preventing plating from sticking to a die. The hot stamping device may include a die that receives a heated plating material, presses the received plating material, and rapidly cools the pressed plating material in a constrained state. Before the plating material is pressed, an anti-sticking layer may be formed on the surface of the die disposed in contact with the plating material.

Abstract: A rapid immunoassay method and apparatus for detecting foot and mouth disease virus are disclosed. The method and test device permit pen-side testing of animals and provide test results within a relatively short time period. In a preferred embodiment, the method and apparatus provide a means for differentiating between FMDV-infected and FMDV-vaccinated animals.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for diagnosing foot-and-mouth disease virus infection, comprising the steps of applying a predetermined amount of a test sample to a loading region of a strip; coupling a detection reagent including a given labeling reagent to an analyte of interest in the test sample to form a complex therebetween; developing the complex onto a wicking membrane; and observing changes in appearance of a reactivity zone having at least more than one immobilized phase selected from antigen, antibody or hapten on the predetermined region of the wicking membrane, derived from FMDV or obtainable from FMDV through an immunological reaction to determine the presence or absence of foot-and-mouth disease virus infection.

Abstract: Muteins of human tumor necrosis factor (hTNF), a process for production thereof, and DNAs encoding these muteins are found to have a superior antitumor activity and lower acute lethal toxicity compared to the wild-type human tumor necrosis factor.
