| 20110055978 | Pesticidal Mixtures - The present invention relates to synergistic mixtures comprising, as active components, an insecticidal compound I selected from the nicotinic receptor agonists/antagonists compounds and one or two further fungicidal compounds in synergistic effective amounts. | 2011-03-03 |
| 20110055979 | Protein Kinase Stress-Related Proteins and Methods of Use in Plants - A transgenic plant transformed by a Protein Kinase Stress-Related Protein (PKSRP) coding nucleic acid, wherein expression of the nucleic acid sequence in the plant results in increased tolerance to environmental stress as compared to a wild type variety of the plant. Also provided are agricultural products, including seeds, produced by the transgenic plants. Also provided are isolated PKSRPs, and isolated nucleic acid coding PKSRPs, and vectors and host cells containing the latter. | 2011-03-03 |
| 20110055980 | Chalcone 3-Hydroxylase - The present invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid molecule, comprising a nucleotide sequence, which encodes a polypeptide with chalcone 3-hydroxylase activity, wherein the nucleotide sequence comprises SEQ ID NO. 1 or has at least a 60% identity with SEQ ID NO. 1 or is able to hybridize with a molecule comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO. 1, wherein the nucleotide sequence encodes a polypeptide, which comprises the motif FASRPLSX | 2011-03-03 |
| 20110055981 | Device for Positioning a Moveable Object of Submicron Scale - The instant disclosure describes a device for positioning a moveable object which can be moved over a distance of the order of 1 nanometer in a time of 1 microsecond or less, comprising: a microtip; first piezoelectric positioning, polarization, detection and control means for moving the microtip relative to the object and bringing it to a distance of the order of 1 nanometer from the object in order to make a tunnel current flow between the microtip and the object, for measuring the tunnel current and for slaving, depending on the measured tunnel current, the distance between the microtip and the object to a constant value (d | 2011-03-03 |
| 20110055982 | A SCANNING PROBE MICROSCOPE AND A MEASURING METHOD USING THE SAME - It is difficult for a scanning probe microscope according to the conventional technology to operate a probe for scanning and positioning in a wide range and for high-precision scanning in a narrow range. A scanning probe microscope according to the invention uses probe driving actuators for coarse adjustment and fine adjustment. For scanning and positioning in a wide range, the coarse adjustment actuator is switched to fast responsiveness. For scanning in a narrow range, the coarse adjustment actuator is switched to slow responsiveness. Instead, positional noise is reduced and the fine adjustment actuator is mainly used for scanning in a narrow range. The probe is capable of not only scanning and positioning in a wide range but also high-precision scanning in a narrow range. | 2011-03-03 |
| 20110055983 | DYNAMIC MODE AFM APPARATUS - There is provided a dynamic mode AFM apparatus that configures an automatic control system which can automatically obtain a probe-sample distance, and allows high-speed identification of atoms of the sample surface. | 2011-03-03 |
