We have developed assay technologies to measure hydrolyzing enzymes based on homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence quenching (TruPoint). High sensitivity was obtained using fluorescent europium chelates as labels, internally quenched by suitable quenchers and released upon enzymatic reaction. This approach allows rob…

A new type of medical guide wire with functionally graded hardness from the tip to the end was developed with the use of Cu-Al-Mn-based alloys. The superelasticity (SE) of the Cu-Al-Mn-based alloys in the tip is drastically improved by controlling the grain size, whereas the end of the wire is hardened using bainitic…

Abstract Three polyurethane resins were synthesized from liquefied wood and three diisocyanates, i.e., TDI, IPDI, and HDI. The liquefied wood was obtained by the liquefaction of benzylated wood wastes using Dibasic esters (DBE) as solvent with hydrochloric acid as catalyst for 3 h, at 80°C. The thermal stability and m…

Abstract Surface wettability on anchorage‐dependent cells has an important role in cell growth rate. In our previous studies, we prepared a wettability gradient on polyethylene (PE) surfaces using corona discharge treatment from a knife‐type electrode whose power increased gradually along the sample length. The PE sur…

Oriented arrays of titania nanofibers have been fabricated by a simple and easily scalable method. Exposure to a 5 % H 2 /95 % N 2 gas mixture at 700 °C transforms dense, polycrystalline rutile (TiO 2 ) into arrays of single‐crystal nanofibers (15–50 nm diameter; see Figure, scale bar: 1 μm). The arrays could be used…
