Organic Electro-Luminescence (EL) materials have attracted much attention because they are more flexible, lighter and more adjustable than inorganic EL materials. That is why organic EL materials are foreseen to be applied in flat panel displays. However, organic EL materials are susceptible to oxidation as well as to humidity. The purpose of this invention is to offer more environmentally durable Pi conjugation polymer compounds. It can be used for flat panel displays as well as a source for converting white light (i.e. through a solar panel) to electric power.
Cardiac magnetic resonance is one of the reliable tools used for the diagnosis of ischemic heart disease. The Gadolinium-enhanced first pass cardiac inspection method is used to detect the difference of myocardial perfusion. The purpose of this invention is to offer a superior assessment method for ischemic heart disease without the influence of artefacts.
The coil embolus has been developed to treat brain aneurysms, an angiopathy. Many patients who have undergone this treatment experienced relapse – subarachnoid haemorrhage, which is terminal. As the recurrences are reportedly attributable to the incompleteness of arterial fibrosis, this invention aims to offer an alternative, more superior form of treatment.
Smoking is a risk factor for lung cancer. The objective of this invention is to offer an assessment method and diagnostic for the prediction of the risk for lung cancer. In this context the determination of UDP-glucronosyltransferases are important for the prediction of the risk for lung cancer.
Superoxide anions O2-, a radical oxygen, shows a bioactive function such as detoxification in the living body. On the other hand, an excess of superoxide anions trigger cancellation or aging by destroying healthy tissue. The invention offers a chemiluminescent probe for the detection of superoxide anions featuring high luminescent intensity, high specificity to super oxide anions with low probe concentrations, high sensitivity to super oxide anions and luminescent at long wavelengths. The invention can be used to detect superoxide anions in biomedical tissue.
