Abstract: The present invention provides an artificial microstructure employed in an artificial electromagnetic material. The artificial microstructure includes a first segment, a second segment, and a third segment. The first segment is parallel to the second segment, and the third segment is connected between the first segment and the second segment. The artificial electromagnetic material has a special electromagnetic effect. The artificial electromagnetic material can be applied to various electromagnetic application systems instead of the typical electromagnetic material.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for searching a change log item, which includes: in a change log of a data synchronizing device, ordering change log items according to numerical values of entity identifiers contained in the items; in the data synchronizing device, when data updating occurs in an entity in a database of the data synchronizing device, using a search algorithm of elements in an ordered sequence to search out whether a change log item containing an entity identifier of the entity exists in the change log. The present invention also provides a data synchronizing device.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for implementing management of application information in a mobile phone and an application manager, wherein, the method includes: after the mobile phone is powered on, its application manager reading application information from a file system and caching the application information in background. In the present invention, when the user starts up the application manager, the cached application information can be directly read and displayed, and does not need to be loaded from the file system, thus greatly improving the speed of displaying the application information, and thereby greatly enhancing the user's experience. In addition, when the user updates the application and inserts a memory card into the mobile phone, the information is synchronously updated in background by the application manager to be provided to the user for obtaining and displaying at any time.

Abstract: The present invention provides a substituted cyclic compound of the following general formula I or II: its preparation process and its use as a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor regulator for preventing or treating metabolic disorders including, but not limited to, diabetes, insulin resistance and obesity, etc.

Abstract: A method and device for maintaining a changelog in data synchronization are provided in the present invention, in which the changelog is configured to record an operation executed for an object and is composed of data record items. The data record item includes flag information configured to uniquely identify an object and an operation type corresponding to the flag information, the operation type includes adding, updating and deleting. The method includes: reading, between two times of the data synchronization, flag information of a first data record item which is required to be added to the changelog; searching for whether there is a second data record item including the flag information in the changelog, and in a situation that there is the second data record item, setting the second data record item according to the first data record item. By the present invention, the changelog file can be prevented from continuously increasing.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to the field of cell seperation. In particular, the invention provides processes for isolating a target cell, cellular organelle or virus from a sample, using inter alia, nonspecific binding between a target cell, cellular organelle or virus with a magnetic microbead modified to comprise hydroxyl, carboxyl or epoxy groups.

Abstract: A bottom plate type distributor which may be provided integrally at a internal bottom of FRP pressure vessels. The distributor is composed of a distribution plate and a bowl-shaped inlet dome. The distribution plate comprises an outlet connected to a water outlet pipe, a reinforcing structure around the outlet, a water distribution slot structure supported by the reinforcing structure, a ring structure around the water distribution slot structure, and first connecting structures on the ring structure for connecting the inlet dome. The inlet dome comprises a bowl-shaped body, a receiving structure provided on the concave surface of the bowl-shaped body for connecting said reinforcing structure, second connecting structures around the bowl-shaped body respectively connecting the first connecting structure, an inlet in the center of the bowl-shaped body which is on the same center line as the outlet; and a process hole.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to the field of nucleic acid amplification. In particular, the invention provides processes and kits for amplifying a nucleic acid of a target cell or virus using, using inter alia, binding between a target cell, cellular organelle or virus with a magnetic microbead.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to the field of. In particular, the invention provides processes and kits for isolating a target cell, cellular organelle or virus from a sample, using inter alia, non- or low-specific binding between a target cell, cellular organelle or virus with a magnetic microbead.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to the field of production of coated magnetizable microparticles and uses thereof. In particular, the invention provides a process for producing coated magnetizable microparticles with active functional groups, which process uses, inter alia, conducting polymerization of said coating monomers on the surface of magnetic particle to form coated magnetizable microparticles with active functional groups in the presence of a coupling agent, coating monomers, a functionalization reagent, a cross-linking agent and an initiator in an organic solvent containing a surfactant. The coated magnetizable microparticles produced according to the present processes and uses of the coated magnetizable microparticles, e.g., in isolating and/or manipulating various moieties are also provided.
