Abstract: An antifungal agent for the prevention and treatment of the fungal diseases caused by the water mould Saprolegnia parasitica includes the natural product sweet flag extract or its essential oil as an active ingredient and, therefore, is eco-friendly and not harmful to fish. In addition to offering effective prevention and inhibition of mould growth, the antifungal agent can replace malachite green, a known carcinogen, in the aquaculture industry.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preparing activated lymphocytes, which comprises isolating lymphocytes from peripheral blood and proliferating and activating the isolated lymphocytes in vitro. According to the disclosed method, highly effective toxic cells can be prepared in large amounts by culturing human peripheral lymphocytes in the presence of an anti-CD3 antibody, IFN-? and IL-2. The activated lymphocytes proliferated according to the disclosed preparation method comprise both CD3-CD56+ (natural killer cell marker) cells that are the main components of LAK cells, and CD3+CD56+ cells that are the main components of CIK cells, and can be cultured in large amounts. Thus, the lymphocyte cells can show a significantly higher anticancer effect compared to when the LAK cells and the CIK cells are used alone.

Abstract: A multi-purpose locking device including a key made of a material, which is not a metal, but a synthetic resin, thereby enabling the key to be easily carried by the user. The key also has a configuration capable of selecting a key number from numerous possible key numbers, thereby preventing even skilled lock-picking persons from opening the locking device unless the key is used. The key includes a plurality of fine apertures and block members fitted in selected ones of the apertures and adapted to close those apertures. Light receiving positions are set by the apertures not closed by the block members whereas light shielding positions are set by the apertures closed by the block members. A locked state of the locking device is unlocked only when light is received at the light receiving positions while being shielded at the light shielding positions.
