  • Patent number: 11920019
    Abstract: A resin composition includes a resin or a resin precursor, and a nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compound. The nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compound has a structure represented by the following general formula (1), the following general formula (6) or the following general formula (7): In the general formula (1), A1 and A2 each represent a 6-membered nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic ring together with a nitrogen atom, and the 6-membered nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic ring optionally forms a fused ring; and L represents a single bond, or a linking group derived from an aromatic hydrocarbon ring, an aromatic heterocyclic ring, or an alkyl group. The resin composition includes the nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compound in a range from 0.10 to 30% by mass relative to the resin or the resin precursor.

  • Patent number: 7951536
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for determining the base sequence of a DNA. According to the method for determining the base sequence of a DNA of the present invention, a probe is used, which is a probe having a protruding end and identification-labeled according to the species of the base at the protruding end, containing a recognition sequence of a class IIS restriction enzyme, to carry out simultaneously in a chain reaction, for a plurality of DNAs to be analyzed, ligation of the end base of a DNA to be analyzed and a probe and cleavage of the end base of the DNA to be analyzed, allowing the base sequence to be determined sequentially by a single molecule spectrofluorimetry method, such that an effective determination of the base sequence of a DNA becomes possible.
