Title: Noriaki Kimura: Innovator in Fluid Dynamics and Cell Sorting Technologies
Introduction
Noriaki Kimura is a prominent inventor based in Tamano, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the fields of fluid dynamics and biotechnology, holding a total of 10 patents. His innovative work has advanced the understanding and visualization of fluid flows, as well as the separation of living cells.
Latest Patents
One of Kimura's latest patents is a fluid body flow visualization device and visualization method. This invention allows for the visualization of liquid flow around measuring objects by using a tracer liquid supplied from a nozzle into a flow field. A laser beam, which is absorbed by the tracer liquid, is scanned across the flow field to visualize the flow of the second liquid body. This method enables reliable visualization even in high-speed fluid scenarios.
Another notable patent is a flow cytometer with a cell-sorting function. This device irradiates a liquid sample flow containing living cells with measurement laser light. It captures photo data from the cells, determining whether they are unnecessary or target living cells. A pulse voltage is then applied to the unnecessary cells, effectively damaging and killing them. This technology has significant implications for medical and biological research.
