Abstract: Disclosed is a method which enables semiquantitative or quantitative determination of the ratio between cysteine and formylglycine residues in a protein. The method includes (a) a step of labeling the protein (i) with a halogen-substituted carboxylic acid, (ii) with a halogen-substituted carboxylic acid amide, and (iii) with a halogen-substituted carboxylic acid and then with hydrazine, or with a halogen-substituted carboxylic acid and then by oximation, (b) a step of digesting each labeled protein to provide a corresponding mixture of peptide fragments, (c) a step of subjecting each mixture to reverse phase chromatography to separate the peptide fragments from each other to produce a chromatogram, (d) a step of comparing the produced chromatograms with each other to identify the peak corresponding to the peptide fragment that contained a cysteine residue and the peak corresponding to the peptide fragment that contained a formylglycine residue.

Abstract: Provided is a method for producing a double-wall tube with braided wires at its interface in which the braided wires are interposed between an outer-wall and inner-wall blank tubes and then a drawing process is applied so as for the braided wires to be brought into close contact with the inner surface of the outer-wall tube and the outer surface of the inner-wall tube, the method comprising: polishing the inner surface of the outer-wall blank tube and the outer surface of the inner-wall blank tube so that a surface roughness thereof satisfies Ra<1.0 ?m, followed by interposing the braided wires between the outer-wall and inner-wall blank tubes; performing a sinking drawing process so that the difference of the outer diameter of the resulting double-wall tube relative to a die bore diameter is 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm; and subsequently performing heat treatment. The double-wall tube produced is suitable as a heat-transfer tube.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and method for separation analysis of mannose-6-phosphate (M6P) by post-column fluorescence detection method. The apparatus is based on chromatography, and includes a column with a solid phase having affinity for phosphate, a flow path for the eluate, a heater installed on the flow path for M6P and a basic amino acid to react by heating the eluate in the flow path, and a fluorescence detector installed downstream of the heater for continuously irradiating the eluate with excitation light and measuring the intensity of the emission, and may include in the flow path a supply channel for addition of a basic amino acid between the column and the heater. The method is characterized in that it uses the apparatus and a second mobile phase consisting of a second buffer containing phosphate of predetermined concentration and adjusted to a predetermined pH.
