Abstract: In a throttle body (1), a cylindrical body member (3) is made
of resin, and a core (6) is made of a material different from the body
member (3) and insert molded in the body member (3). A notch (10a, 10c)
is provided on an outer surface of the body in a peripheral direction,
in a proximity of the core (6). The body member (3) is readily split
at the notch (10a, 10c) when external force is applied to the body member
(3) during a dismantling. Therefore, the core (6) is readily removed
from the body member (3). Alternatively, the body member (3) can be
constructed of a first body (31) having a hook (31b) and a second body
(32) having a hook-receiving portion (32b). Both the first and second
bodies (31, 32) are connected to each other through the hook (31b) and
the hook-receiving portion (32b), and the core (6) is held between both
the first and second bodies (31, 32). Thus, the core (6) is readily
removed from the bodies (31, 32) by unhooking the hook (31b).

house includes standard floors constructed to have the same
structural floor height dimension, intermediate slabs each
of which is made of a flat slab and is disposed between each
of adjacent upper and lower floors, and slabs each of which
is made of a beam slab and forms a ceiling face of the upper

Title: Purification process based on enzyme/tagged-peptide binding
Inventor: DWULET FRANCIS EDWARD
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 2002-07-06
Abstract: A hybrid polypeptide composed of an identification peptide and a desired functional
protein are produced by recombinant DNA techniques. A DNA expression vector is constructed
that includes segments of DNA coding for the identification peptide and the desired
functional protein. The identification peptide consists of a specific sequence of amino
acids that has the desired affinity for a non-antibody capture protein. This peptide maybe
linked to either the amino or carboxyl terminal of the functional protein. The identification
peptide may or may not contain a sequence of amino acids that can be fragmented by sequence
specific proteases or chemical agents to yield the native protein. The hybrid polypeptide
produced by either cell or cell-free based expression systems is now suitable for
further processing. This fusion protein can be purified by affinity chromatographic techniques
using an immobilized non-antibody capture protein that has the desired affinity for
the identification peptide. Alternately the capture protein may contain a label that will allow
for the tracking of the functional protein in the system being studied.

The resultant data is used to find the relative positions of the toothbrush and teeth over time. Statistical analysis of this data permits the identification of habitual brushing failures by subjects of the toothbrush. The toothbrush may transmit the output of its position sensor to a data analysis unit as a wireless signal. The toothbrush may also be provided with further sensors, such as pH and pressure sensors, the output of which is used in the statistical analysis to enrich the results.
