  • Patent number: 10036073
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a slide chip for a sensor for detection of food-borne bacteria and a fabrication method thereof. More particularly, the invention relates to a slide chip for a sensor for detection of food-borne bacteria and a fabrication method thereof, the slide chip comprising: a substrate coated with a metal; a linker having a substituent which may be bonded to the metal and is located at the 5? end of deoxythymidine (dT); and a food-borne bacterium-derived RNA aptamer that is bound to the linker by the 3?-end poly A tail. The slide chip makes it possible to detect food-borne bacteria in a rapid and accurate manner.

  • Publication number: 20060051662
    Abstract: An electrode assembly is adapted to prevent the separator from contracting due to heat that is generated near the electrode tab during overcharging, over-discharging, or in the case of an internal short circuit. The electrode assembly also prevents an additional short circuit between the electrode plates. A rechargeable battery that comprises the electrode assembly is also provided. The present invention prevents the electrode tab from being short-circuited due to increased heat generation during overcharging or in the case of a short circuit, thus improving the safety of the rechargeable battery.
