Abstract: A method of applying an organic acid reagent having limited transolubility in organic solvents, aqueous solvents, and mixtures thereof to a component of a diagnostic test device by mixing an organic acid reagent and an amine to form a salt complex, dissolving the salt complex in a solvent to release the organic acid reagent into the solvent, and applying the solvent to the component of the diagnostic test device such that the organic acid reagent present in the solvent becomes integrated into the diagnostic test device. The amine is represented by the formula HmNRn wherein m is 0, 1, or 2; n is 1, 2, or 3; the sum of m and n is 3; and R is an independently selected group which renders the salt complex soluble in aqueous solvents, organic solvents, or mixtures thereof. The amine is also represented by the formula NR4+ wherein R is an independently selected group which renders the salt complex soluble in aqueous solvents, organic solvents, or mixtures thereof. The organic acid reagent is selected from a carboxylic acid, a sulfonic acid, a phosphoric acid, and mixtures thereof. Preferred reagents are dyes like pyragallol red. In a specific embodiment the diagnostic test device is a paper test strip.

Abstract: This invention is to provide a process for producing a glycoprotein comprising a
mammalian type sugar chain, characterized in that the process comprises introducing an
α-1,2-mannosidase gene into a methylotrophic yeast having a mutation of a sugar chain
biosynthesizing enzyme gene, so that the α-1,2-mannosidase gene is expressed under the
control of a potent promoter in the yeast; culturing in a medium the methylotrophic yeast cells
with a heterologous gene transferred thereinto; and obtaining the glycoprotein comprising a
mammalian type sugar chain from the culture. Using the newly created methylotrophic yeast
having a sugar chain mutation, a neutral sugar chain identical with a high mannose type sugar
chain produced by mammalian cells such as human cells, or a glycoprotein comprising such a
neutral sugar chain, can be produced in a large amount at a high purity. By introducing a
mammalian type sugar chain biosynthesizing gene into the above-described mutant, a
mammalian type sugar chain, such as a hybrid or complex, or a protein comprising a
mammalian type sugar chain can be efficiently produced.

Abstract: A reproduction control method adopted by an
information-processing apparatus such as a personal
computer for the purpose of protecting copyrights imposes
a restriction on an operation carried out by a media
reproduction apparatus such as a disc drive apparatus to
reproduce musical data or the like (from a recording
medium mounted on the media reproduction apparatus). A
command issued by the processing main member of the
information-processing apparatus (including application
programs and an OS) to the media reproduction apparatus
such as the disc drive apparatus to read out data
recorded on the recording medium in a predetermined
format is monitored. If the issuance of a command to read
out data recorded in a predetermined format is confirmed,
a copyright protection process is carried out to protect
a copyright. The copyright protection process is a
process to prohibit or conditionally permit a suck-up
operation (to transfer the musical data from the
recording medium to the personal computer).

Abstract: The present invention discloses a radio communication
method or the like, which contributes to the improvement of
data transmission efficiency in a radio communication based
on TDMA system (in particular, radio communication in
accordance with IEEE Std. 802.11) by providing idle time
between the data transmitted and received by radio
communication terminals on a radio section. In the radio
communication between radio communication terminals, data
transmission efficiency is improved by reducing
transmission time of header added to the data or by
reducing idle time. More concretely, header is added to
the data for each predetermined data transmission, for
instance, and by transmitting the other data without header
added to it, transmission time of header is reduced. Also,
data transmission efficiency is improved by carrying out
methods such as a method to acquire header of the data on
radio section in advance, a method to utilize
identification information as the header, and a method to
transmit continuous data by reducing IFS (InterFrame Space)
after Ack (receiving acknowledgment information) .

Abstract: A rewritable optical information recording medium
including a recording layer composed of an organic dye film
is provided, in which recording and erasing information can
be performed reversibly by laser light irradiation. 
     A rewritable optical information recording medium
including at least one organic dye film which is
substantially made of only at least one kind of organic dye
compounds as a recording film is provided. The recording
and erasure of information are performed by a reversible
physical change of the organic dye film substance caused by
laser light irradiation. Specifically, data recording is
performed by a physical change locally caused by the
irradiation of recording laser light, data reproduction is
performed by detecting change in intensity of returned
light of reproducing laser light having less power than the
recording laser light, and data erasure is performed by
applying at least once continuous light or pulse light
having laser power more than the reproducing laser light
and less than the recording laser light. The physical
change is a change in shape.

Abstract: Multiple branch peptide constructions formed from peptide-branches derived from the envelope transmembrane glycoprotein gp41 of HIV, and including the consensus sequence RQGY preceded by 0 to 4 amino acid residues and succeeded by 0 to 4 amino acid residues, most preferably RQGYS, show increased receptor affinity and prevent cell-to-cell fusion. They have a direct virostatic effect. Because they present the same peptide sequence several times, these MBPCs are able to neutralize in vitro the different steps of virus envelope/cell membrane fusion, and infected cell membrane/uninfected cell membrane fusion of several strains of HIV-1 and HIV-2. These results open a potential use in treatment of HIV infection.
