A battery packaging material has a very thin aluminum alloy foil with a thickness of not more than 40 &#x3bc;m, in which pinholes or cracks are unlikely to occur during molding, which has excellent moldability and appearance after molding, which is unlikely to be erroneously determined to be a defective product, and which makes highly accurate defect determination possible. The battery packaging material includes a stacked member provided with at least, in this order: a base material layer; an aluminum alloy foil layer; and a heat sealable resin layer, wherein: the aluminum alloy foil layer has a thickness of not more than 40 &#x3bc;m; the aluminum alloy foil layer is an aluminum alloy conforming to JIS standard A8021; and the aluminum alloy has a maximum crystal grain size of not more than 25 &#x3bc;m, and an average crystal grain size of not more than 10 &#x3bc;m.

A resin composition capable of securely adhering multiple members in a short time without having to establish a long aging process. The resin composition including: (1) a urethane (meth)acrylate; (2) at least one selected from a group of (meth)acrylates having a phosphate group, (meth)acrylic silane coupling agents, and (meth)acrylates having an isocyanate group; and (3) a (meth)acrylate having an epoxy group.

When detecting fluorescence of a bead chip array, reflected light from a bead is detected at the same time, so as to recognize the bead position. The reflected light can be detected in a similar manner for all beads, regardless of the presence or absence of a fluorescent substance. If the positions of all beads are detected, accurate detection can be achieved by quantifying only the fluorescence at the detected positions. The fluorescence wavelength alone is detected by a first detector using a wavelength selection filter. Other wavelengths are detected by a second detector, thereby obtaining the reflected light. Data on the reflected light is processed into an image for obtaining the bead profile, the bead position is recognized by detecting the center position based on the profile, and the fluorescence is quantified based on the bead position.

Apparatus and method for reading fluorescence from bead arrays

An apparatus and a method for arraying beads that allow a bead array having been difficult in mass production to be manufactured easily and accurately are provided. Beads are once arrayed in a separate container using an inclined bead array apparatus while controlling the number of beads to be inserted simply by the use of a bead control rod. When the whole arraying is completed, the arrayed beads are transferred onto a plate for use in an actual reaction.

Apparatus and method for arraying beads

A method for producing a capillary bead array comprises the steps of: dispensing beads into a liquid pool, outside a capillary, having a depth of almost the same length as the particle diameter of a bead; leveling the excessive beads by moving a leveling member which is in contact with and relatively capable of be moved to the liquid pool to remove excessive beads that the liquid pool cannot contain; aligning the beads in the liquid pool one- or two-dimensionally; bonding adjacent individual beads to each other; producing a structure having the plurality of beads bonded and aligned one- or two-dimensionally; removing the structure from the liquid pool; and disposing the structure in the capillary formed of soft resin, so that the beads comprising the plurality of beads retaining the one- or two-dimensional alignment can be introduced simultaneously into the capillary. This method reduces the time and cost necessary for bead array production and retains the bead alignment in the capillary, resulting in improved accuracy and reliability in experiments using the capillary array.

A disk cartridge having a shutter constructed slidable in both rightward and leftward directions. One surface of a cartridge casing is provided with a first guide groove formed between an upper surface of a front end wall of one half shell and a lower surface of a front end wall of the other half shell. The front end wall of the above-mentioned other half shell is partially cut out to provide a cut portion that extends up to the upper surface of the front end wall of the one half shell. By inserting a first engagement protrusion and a second engagement protrusion formed a the first slider through the cut portion into the first guide groove, the shutter is mounted on the casing body.

A cartridge consists of a case and a disk housed therein. The case has a case body in which a head access window and a drive spindle access window are formed. The case has a shutter to open and close the head access window and the drive spindle access window. The case body has in its rear side an opening through which the disk is taken out of and put into the case body. The opening is fitted with a lid that can be taken out of and put into the opening in the direction in which the disk is taken out of and put into the case body. One of the halves constituting the case body has a stopper removal hole, a stopper rest linked to the inner surface of the hole through thin bridges and formed seamlessly therewith, and a stopper whose one end is fixed on the inner surface of the stopper rest and which stops the lid from sliding.

A slide mechanism for a shutter, installed on a cartridge case of a disk cartridge, which is slidable in both right and left directions relative to the cartridge case from a neutral position at which a head access opening is closed by the shutter, and which is constituted by a smaller number of components and easy to assemble. The case has a groove which forms between a pair of counterparts forming the case itself; the shutter is biased toward a neutral position at which the shutter closes the head access opening; and the shutter has a projecting part which slidably engages the groove. The shutter is divided by a connecting portion of the upper wall side shutter plate and the lower wall side shutter plate, and the shutter is fixed together after the shutter plates are assembled to the cartridge case.
