Abstract: This invention relates to safe and effective methods for the extraction of nucleic acids. In particular, methods are described for isolating nucleic acid from a sample containing a biological mixture of nucleic acids and other biological compounds wherein the sample is combined with an extraction solution containing at least one organic compound such as benzyl alcohol or a benzyl alcohol derivative to form an aqueous and non-aqueous phase. The nucleic acid is isolated from the aqueous phase. Preferably, the resulting combined solution also contains bentonite, as defined below. Typically, the sample will first be combined with a lysing agent before extraction. The lysing agents preferred are chaotropic salts such as guanidinium hydrochloride and guanidinium isothiocyanate.

Abstract: Disclosed is a transformed yeast cell containing a first heterologous DNA sequence which codes for a mammalian G protein coupled receptor and a second heterologous DNA sequence which codes for a mammalian G protein a subunit (mammalian G alpha ). The first and second heterologous DNA sequences are capable of expression in the cell, but the cell is incapable of expressing an endogenous G protein  alpha -subunit (yeast G alpha ). The cells are useful for screening compounds which affect the rate of dissociation of G alpha  from G beta  gamma  in a cell. <??>Also disclosed is a novel DNA expression vector useful for making cells as described above. The vector contains a first segment comprising at least a fragment of the extreme amino-terminal coding sequence of a yeast G protein coupled receptor. A second segment is positioned downstream from the first segment (and in correct reading frame therewith), with the second segment comprising a DNA sequence encoding a heterologous G protein coupled receptor.

Title: Method for producing metallic iron
Inventor: KIKUCHI SHOICHI
IPC: C21B13/00
Filed: 2002-10-25
Granted: 2009-04-23
Abstract: In a method of producing metallic iron by reducing and melting a raw material, which contains an iron oxide-containing material and a carbonaceous reducing agent, by heating, the raw material for producing metallic iron is supplied after a powder and granular atmosphere control carbonaceous material is spread on a hearth of a heat-reducing furnace. In this case, a non-resolidificable carbonaceous material is used as the atmosphere control carbonaceous material, and thus a phenomenon that the powder and granular carbonaceous material is resolidified into a rice-cracker-like shape can be suppressed, thereby permitting solid-phase reduction with high efficiency and stable operationality. <IMAGE>
