  • Patent number: 9273710
    Abstract: A rapid mounting hallow wall anchor comprises a cleat with latching tooth and hanging flange, and a T-shaped anchor structure with latching cogs on its stem. The cleat comprises a tube with a flange near or at one end of the tube. There are latching teeth inside of the tube for engaging the latching cogs on the stem. The tube flange can be made to have a groove or hook on where objects can be hung. A cross bar joins one end of the stem with a cross bar hinge. The cross bar hinge allows the cross bar to be bended for insertion into a drilled hole in a plasterboard of a hallow wall.

  • Patent number: 9254290
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for screening a diabetes treating agent comprising the following steps: (a) preparing cells inside a culture medium; (b) treating the culture medium with a test substance; (c) treating the result of step (b) with a glucose derivative which is not metabolized; and (d) measuring the glucose derivative which has flowed into the cells, wherein the test substance is determined to be a diabetes treating agent if the test substance accelerates uptake of the glucose derivative in the cells. Therefore, the described pharmaceutical composition, including a triazin-based compound as an active ingredient, can be useful for application in preventing or treating diabetes.
