The present disclosure provides a chemical supply system, including a chamber, a tubing extending into the chamber, an interlock apparatus, including a fixture for fastening the tubing, and means for determining whether the tubing is fastened by the fixture.

Interlock apparatus for chemical supply system

A pharmaceutical composition includes a plurality of metal nanoparticles and at least one therapeutic agent. Each of the metal nanoparticles includes a core and a stabilizing agent coated on a surface of the core. The at least one therapeutic agent is attached to the stabilizing agent of the metal nanoparticles. Each of the therapeutic agent is an amphiphilic compound and has at least one hydrophobic chain interacting with the stabilizing agent. The pharmaceutical composition may further include a polymer shell encapsulating the metal nanoparticles and the therapeutic agent for enabling controlled release of the therapeutic agent. The pharmaceutical compositions are bifunctional and may be used for diagnosing and treating cancer. Methods for using the pharmaceutical compositions in conjunction with radiation therapy to diagnose and treat cancer are also provided.

The invention provides an antifungal composite comprising an antifungal agent and &#x3b2;-cyclodextrin surface-modified with a long carbon chain compound, wherein the antifungal agent is clad in &#x3b2;-cyclodextrin surface-modified with a long carbon chain compound as a carrier, and thus a use of inhibiting harmful fungi can be provided by sustained release of the antifungal agent from the composite. The antifungal composite may be retained on the surface of the resin materials to increase the concentration of the antifungal composite on the surface of the resin materials by adjusting the difference of the lipophilic and hydrophilic characters between the antifungal composite and the resin materials, and thus an antifungal effect can be increased. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing an antifungal composite.

A nucleic acid cleavage kit is used to cleave a target nucleic acid. The nucleic acid cleavage kit includes a carrier, an oligonucleotide, and a nucleic acid cleavage agent. The oligonucleotide recognizes at least partial sequence of the target nucleic acid. Then, the nucleic acid cleavage agent cleaves the target nucleic acid. A nucleic acid cleavage detection apparatus including the nucleic acid cleaving kit and a gene therapy by administering the nucleic acid cleavage kit are also disclosed.
