  • Publication number: 20160372673
    Abstract: A method of purifying an organic material using an ionic liquid according to the present invention includes a sublimation step (S510) of sublimating the organic material containing an impurity, a capturing step (S520) of bringing a sublimated gas of the organic material into contact with the flowing ionic liquid to capture the sublimated gas, and a recrystallization step (S530) of preferentially oversaturating the organic material, which is to be purified, of the sublimated gas, which is captured in the ionic liquid to be dissolved, to thus generate the recrystallized organic material. In the present invention, it is not necessary to perform a process of carrying the sublimated gas, which is generated during the sublimation step, to implement reverse sublimation. Accordingly, there is a merit in that the contamination of a purified sample by an inert carrier gas, which is used in a conventional sublimation purification method, is fundamentally avoided.

  • Patent number: 9275663
    Abstract: Technologies are described herein for utilizing a head heater to test temperature stability of a head of a storage device and to prevent the head from operating in an unstable temperature condition. A temperature condition of a read/write head in a storage device is ascertained and it is determined whether the temperature condition is within a predetermined range of temperature conditions in which the read/write head exhibits instability. If the temperature condition of the read/write head is within the predetermined range, a power level of a head heater of the read/write head is adjusted to change the temperature condition of the read/write head to be outside of the predetermined range.

  • Publication number: 20160040168
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for treatment or metastasis suppression of cancers which includes a p34 expression inhibitor or activity inhibitor as an active ingredient. According to the present invention, the p34 protein knock-down causes monoubiquitination of PTEN and accordingly nuclear localization of PTEN is induced, as a result, an Akt pathway which is related to survival, proliferation, invasive properties and metastatic properties of tumors is inhibited, and thus there is an effect of significantly reducing clonogenic potential and tumor forming potential of various cancer cells which simultaneously express PTEN and NEDD4-1. Consequently, the p34 gene expression inhibitor or p34 protein activity inhibitor according to the present invention can be effectively used as a treatment agent or a metastasis suppression agent for cancers.
