  • Patent number: 8237114
    Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a sample target that allows ionization of a substance whose molecular weight is so high as to exceed 10000 in mass spectrometry that ionizes a sample without using matrix, a method for producing the same and a mass spectrometer using the sample target. The sample target includes a sample support surface including a large number of fine pores on its face receiving irradiated laser light. Each of the fine pores has a diameter of 30 nm or more and 5 ?m or less. The number indicative of pore depth/(pore cycle?pore diameter) of each of the fine pores is 2 or more and 50 or less. The face of the sample support surface is coated with metal or semiconductor.

  • Patent number: 6017670
    Abstract: An electrophotographic toner having a volume-average particle diameter of from 3 to 15 .mu.m. The toner comprises a spherical particulate material having an average circularity of not less than 0.97 having a colorant encapsulated in a binder resin. The binder resin is a styrene-acrylic resin having an acid value of from 30 to 150 which is at least partly crosslinked. The tetrahydrofuran insoluble content in the whole of the binder resin including crosslinkd portions in the particulate material is from 0.5 to 70% by weight.
