Abstract: It has been required to economically produce a large amount of optically active  gamma -lactone derivatives (for example, pantolactone), which are useful as intermediates in synthesizing useful substances such as pharmaceutical drugs. To achieve this object, it is advantageous to employ an enzymatic technique of asymmetric hydrolysis with a hydrolyzing enzyme lactonase. However, it remains troublesome to prepare the enzyme or utilize a microorganism capable of producing the enzyme. Also, it is difficult to obtain a sufficient and stable enzymatic activity in the case of using recombination techniques. In producing lactonase, which asymmetrically hydrolyzes a  gamma -lactone derivative such as racemic pantolactone selectively, by a recombination technique, both mature lactonase DNA and signal peptide region DNA are transferred into a host. Thus, a stable lactonase activity comparable to naturally-occurring one can be achieved and a transformant sustaining a high enzyme activity in a stable manner can be acquired, thereby allowing the efficient and industrially advantageous asymmetric synthesis of  gamma -lactone derivatives.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de soudage par diffusion en phase liquide destiné à une pièce métallique, permettant d'augmenter la qualité et la productivité d'un joint, car il réduit le temps de soudage, l'uniformité de la structure de soudage et la résistance à la traction et à la fatigue d'un joint pour augmenter sa qualité et sa fiabilité. Ce procédé consiste à disposer une feuille d'alliage amorphe pour soudage par diffusion en phase liquide sur la face de fusion d'un matériau métallique. Dans la première phase du soudage, la feuille d'alliage amorphe et le matériau métallique sont mis en fusion et soudés par pression par soudage électrique par résistance pour former le joint. Dans la seconde phase de soudage, le joint est réchauffé jusqu'à une température supérieure ou égale au point de fusion de la feuille d'alliage amorphe, puis maintenu à cette température jusqu'à ce que le joint se soit solidifié.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de détecteurs pour la chambre à échantillon d'un microscope électronique à balayage, lequel système permet de détecter simultanément les signaux d'émission correspondant à un contraste par fond clair et à un contraste par fond sombre. Ce système de détecteurs (14) est composé de quatre détecteurs (15 - 18) dans un premier plan (25), détecteurs entre lesquels se trouve un trou (19) permettant un passage libre d'électrons. Un autre détecteur (27) est placé derrière ce trou (19) dans un second plan (26). Ces détecteurs sont de préférence des diodes. Les détecteurs (15, 16, 17, 18) situés dans le premier plan (25), qui est plus proche de l'échantillon, servent à produire des signaux correspondant à un contraste par fond sombre. L'autre détecteur (27), qui est plus éloigné de l'échantillon, détecte des signaux correspondant à un contraste par fond clair. L'agencement de façon décalée de quatre diodes (15, 16, 17, 18) dans le premier plan (25) permet d'éviter de grands espaces morts insensibles aux électrons entre les diodes et autour du trou (19).
