According to one embodiment, a method of quantifying a target nucleic acid containing a first sequence in a sample is provided. The method includes preparing a substrate on which a plurality of detection regions are arranged, forming a reaction field by placing, on the substrate, a reaction liquid containing a sample, a primer set, and an amplification enzyme, maintaining the reaction field in an isothermal amplification condition, detecting a detection signal for each of the detection regions, determining, for each of the plurality of detection regions, whether positive or negative and detecting or quantifying the target nucleic acid based on the number of positive and/or a rise time of each of the positive detection signal.

Nucleic acid detection or quantification method, chip and assay kit therefor, device for detecting or quantifying nucleic acid and program therefor

A process cartridge comprises a photosensitive drum and a developing roller. A coupling member is provided adjacent to one axial end of the developing roller. The coupling member includes a driven portion, and an intermediary portion configured and positioned to engage with the driven portion. The intermediary portion is also configured to be movable relative to the driven portion in a direction crossing the axis of the developing roller while maintaining engagement with the driven portion. The coupling member further includes a driving portion configured and positioned to receive a driving force for rotating the developing roller. The driving portion is also configured to engage with the intermediary portion, and to be movable relative to the intermediary portion in a direction crossing the axis of the developing roller while maintaining engagement with the intermediary portion.

A full-floating bearing includes: an outer peripheral groove having a groove width larger than a value of 0.69, which is a value obtained by subtracting a chamfer width as a width of a chamfered portions in a center axis direction and the groove width as a width of the groove in the center axis direction from a total width being a width of a main body in the center axis direction and dividing a net width by a total width.

A micro camera is placed in an appropriate image capturing position therefor on the basis of a center-to-center distance depending on a rotational angle of a holding table. Even in the case where the center Cof a holding surface and the center Cof a wafer are displaced out of alignment with each other, allowing a position in X-axis directions of an outer circumference of the wafer to vary as the holding table rotates, a control unit can make an image capturing range of the micro camera follow the varying position of the outer circumference of the wafer. Therefore, the image capturing range of the micro camera can be determined with ease. Both a surface of the wafer and the outer circumference of the wafer can be inspected simply when two cameras are moved along the X-axis directions by a single X-axis moving mechanism.

Wafer inspecting apparatus

The first annular sealing material is filled and applied between a first sealing surface provided on an outer peripheral part of the case and a second sealing surface provided on an outer peripheral part of the cover, a second annular sealing material is filled and applied between a first fitting member provided at the opening of the sealed housing and a second fitting member provided at the outer periphery of the body of the connector housing, a terminal part sealing material is applied to a connection surface which is an inner surface of the wall for partitioning inside and outside of the connector housing and is connected to the circuit substrate, the case and the cover are fastened together by a fastening member, the hermetically sealed housing is provided with a sealable ventilation passage that communicates the inside of the hermetically sealed housing with outside air.

A turbocharger includes a backflow passage that returns a part of gas flowing through a compressor wheel to a suction passage. The turbocharger includes an exhaust opening formed in a wall portion of an exhaust passage inside a compressor housing and that opens the exhaust passage to the outside of the compressor housing, a suction opening formed in a wall portion of the suction passage inside the compressor housing and that opens the suction passage to the outside of the compressor housing, and a backflow pipe of which one end is connected to the exhaust opening and the other end is connected to the suction opening and has the backflow passage inside thereof. In a state where the backflow pipe is removed from the exhaust opening and the suction opening, the suction opening is formed at a position at which the suction opening is visible when seen from a position opposite to the exhaust opening.

A press-forming apparatus is an apparatus for producing a press-formed product having a hat-shaped cross section that has an external shape that curves in an L shape along a longitudinal direction in a planar view, and includes a punch, a first blank holder, a second blank holder, a preceding portion, a second die and a pad. When pushing the punch into a die to form a metal plate into the press-formed product, a first guide face of the preceding portion precedes a second guide face of the second die, and thereafter sliding of the first blank holder and the preceding portion relative to the punch is restricted and pushing of the punch into the die is continued in the restricted state to form the press-formed product. By this means, the press-formed product in which cracks and wrinkles are reduced is obtained.

A control operation of correcting, based on a difference between a target value and a measured value of a controlled response time, a standby time from change in a set value of a flow rate to a value that is not zero until start of output of an opening signal is repeated. As a result, a response time for the flow rate to reach the set value of the flow rate after the set value changes can be a desired value independently of a type, the set flow rate, the temperature, and the pressure of fluid, individual differences among devices, and the like. The difference between the target value and the measured value of the controlled response time may be multiplied by a weight coefficient, and the control operation may be carried out for each of a predetermined plurality of ranges of the flow rate.

There is provided a manufacturing apparatus and a manufacturing method for a stretch-formed product which can improve the yield of material in the stretch forming performed while clamping the blank by the lock beads. The manufacturing apparatus for a stretch-formed product includes a die and a blank holder which have clamping surfaces facing each other, a punch that, in a state where a margin of a blank of a sheet material is clamped by the clamping surfaces of the die and the blank holder, relatively presses a forming region of the blank into the die and thereby performs stretch forming on the forming region of the blank, and lock beads that are provided on the clamping surfaces of the die and the blank holder in mutually similar shapes and have first surfaces, second surfaces that intersect with the first surfaces, and third surfaces that intersect with the second surfaces from outer edges toward the centers of the die and the blank holder, the first surfaces each having a plurality of depression-protrusion parts.
