Abstract: A dustproof clothing comprises a fabric, and at
least part of the fabric comprises a dustproof fiber
containing a photocatalyst and a dust-collecting agent.
The dust-collecting agent may comprise a quadrivalent metal
phosphate and a bivalent metal hydroxide. The
photocatalyst may comprise an optical semiconductor (e.g.,
an oxide semiconductor such as titanium dioxide). In the
dustproof fiber, the proportion of the photocatalyst may
be about 0.1 to 25 parts by weight relative to 100 parts
by weight of the dustproof fiber, and the proportion of
the dust-collecting agent may be about 1 to 25 parts by
weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the dustproof
fiber. Since the dust collection efficiency of the fabric
in the dustproof clothing is not less than 70% and the air
permeability of the fabric is about 8 to 100 cm/second,
the dustproof clothing is suited to a clothing for a clean
room. Thus, the present invention provides a dustproof
clothing having both a high dust collection efficiency and
an air permeability concurrently.

Abstract: The discharge lamp lighting apparatus includes a high-voltage
generating coil connected in series to a discharge lamp for applying
a high voltage to the discharge lamp to turn on the lamp, an inverter
for inverting a dc voltage into an ac voltage in order to supply
a lamp current to the discharge lamp on an alternating basis through
the high voltage generating coil, a lamp voltage detecting circuit

voltage detected by the lamp voltage detecting circuit. The lamp
voltage detecting circuit detects the lamp voltage by subtracting
a voltage in proportion to a sum of voltage drops across devices
lying on a current path over which the lamp current flows other
than the discharge lamp from a voltage in proportion to the dc
voltage.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for inducing cell-mediated immunity against cellular antigens. More
specifically, the invention provides for a method for inducing cytotoxic T-lymphocyte
immunity against weak antigens, notably self-proteins. The method entails that antigen
presenting cells are induced to present at least one CTL epitope of the weak antigen and at
the same time presenting at least one foreign T-helper lymphocyte epitope. In a preferred
embodiment, the antigen is a cancer specific antigen, e.g. PSM, Her2, or FGF8b. The method
can be exercised by using traditional polypeptide vaccination, but also by using live
attenuated vaccines or nucleic acid vaccination. The invention furthermore provides
immunogenic analogues of PSM, Her2 and FGF8b, as well as nucleic acid molecules encoding
these analogues. Also vectors and transformed cells aer disclosed. The invention also
provides for a method for identification of immunogenic analogues of weak or non-immunogenic

impregnated wicking material (166) to form a water-activated battery that
energizes an alarm (178) in the presence of a leak. In either case, the
electrodes and wicking material may be encased with a water-activated sealing

Abstract: Disclosed are a driving device and a driving method for a plasma display panel (PDP). A panel capacitor is formed by a scan electrode and a sustain electrode. The charges are moved from the panel capacitor to a capacitor by turning on a transistor which is connected between the scan electrode and the capacitor. By this method, the voltage of the panei capacitor is steeply reduced so that a discharge is generated in the panel capacitor. When the voltage of the capacitor increases because of the charges moved from the panel capacitor, the gate-source voltage of the transistor is reduced. As a result, the transistor is turned off so that the scan electrode is floated. Accordingly, the discharge is steeply quenched so that the wall charges are precisely controlled. After the capacitor is discharged, the above-noted operation may be repeated.
