Abstract: The present invention relates to a facilitated transport membrane for separation of alkene hydrocarbons from hydrocarbon mixtures, comprising a porous support and a solid polymer electrolyte consisting of a transition metal salt and a polymer having phthalic structure, in which the electrolyte is in solid state at its operating temperature. The facilitated transport membrane is prepared by forming a solid polymer electrolyte consisting of a transition metal salt and a polymer on a porous support. The transition metal salt can selectively and reversibly form a complex with alkene hydrocarbons and the polymer can dissociate the transition metal salt. In particular, the polymer matrix allows the transition metal salt to be well dissociated because it has a phthalic structure capable of being coordinated to a transition metal ion.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for adjusting lumbosacral area, which corrects misalignment of the vertebrae in the lumbosacral area by applying pressure on the lumbosacral area. The present invention simultaneously applies vertical and horizontal forces to the lumbosacral area where vertebral displacement has occurred to adjust the vertebral displacement in the lumbosacral area and remove stress concentrated on the lumbosacral area. Accordingly, the lumbosacral area where the vertebral displacement has happened can be easily adjusted. Also, when the apparatus is manually operated, there is an effect that muscular strength can be increased while adjusting the lumbosacral area. In addition, stress concentrated on a lumbosacral joint wherein the lumbar vertebrae and the sacral vertebrae meet together is removed, so that a user can enjoy physically and mentally healthy life.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for inhibiting angiogenesis which comprises arginine deiminase as an active ingredient, where the arginine deiminase, obtained from Mycoplasma arginini or prepared by a genetic recombination technique, may be conjugated to an activated polymer to lower its immunogenecity and increase its life time. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention exhibits an excellent inhibitory activity against angiogenesis.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling a memory card are provided. The system may include a memory card and a host. The memory card may have a plurality of data transceiving channels, and the host may selectively activate the data transceiving channels in the memory card and transmit a plurality of commands to the activated data transceiving channels.

Abstract: There is provided a facilitated transport membrane for separating alkene hydrocarbon comprising a solid polymer electrolyte layer consisting a transition metal salt, a polymer, an ionic liquid, and a porous supported membrane. The facilitated transport membrane of the present invention shows high selectivity and permeability for the alkene hydrocarbon. It further maintains the complex's activity as a carrier during a long operation, wherein the complex is formed by an interaction of the transition metal ion with the polymer ligand within the solid polymer electrolyte.

Abstract: A Multimedia (MMC)/Secure Digital (SD) form-factor compliant card apparatus can include a mode determining circuit connected to first and second pins of the card apparatus and configured to determine a type of host connected to the first and second pins based on comparing voltages at the first and second pins to an internal voltage level. Related adaptors and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a washing machine comprising a heating tank accommodating the washing and washing water; a heating part heating the washing water in the heating tank; and a circulation pump circulating the washing water in the heating tank. With this configuration, the present invention provides the circulation pump circulating washing water in the heating tank, thereby preventing the washing from oxidizing, improving a washing efficiency especially improving a washing efficiency according to washing material, and saving washing water. Further, water supply and drain can be easily performed.

Abstract: A removable memory card can include a plurality of connector contacts including a Universal Serial Bus (USB) controller module power contact and a separate controller module power contact configured to provide separate mutually exclusively applied voltage to the removable memory card.
