  • Publication number: 20120225485
    Abstract: The present invention discloses methods for producing synthetic surfaces that mimic collagen coated surfaces for cell culture comprising: providing a monomer source comprising one or more organic compounds which are capable of polymerization, wherein at least one organic compound is prolinol; creating a plasma of said monomer source; and contacting at least a portion of a surface with the plasma to provide a plasma polymer coated surface. Advantageously, such methods provide an animal-free, synthetic, chemically defined surface that mimics a collagen coated surface for cell culture. Advantageously, such methods not only reduce the cost and/or issues associated with animal-derived collagen but are also amenable to large scale manufacturing.

  • Publication number: 20120022271
    Abstract: [Object] A novel method for producing an optically active pyrrolidine compound, which is useful as a production intermediate of a pharmaceutical, and a production intermediate thereof, is provided. [Means for Solution] According to the production method of the present invention, a chloro compound that is a key intermediate can be produced efficiently industrially by subjecting a mixture of regioisomers obtained by reacting an optically active epoxy compound substituted with aryl, which is easily available, with an amine compound, to chlorination. Furthermore, an optically active pyrrolidine compound can be produced industrially efficiently with the key intermediate.
