DKSH Japan Co., Ltd. will be exhibiting at BioPharma 2017.

High-sensitivity biosensor based on the SwichSENSE principle using DNA as a fixation tool.

heliX/heliX+ is a high-sensitivity device for analyzing molecular interactions and protein properties that adopts a new principle called "SwitchSENSE," which uses DNA nanolevers as a immobilization tool. It has approximately 100 times the sensitivity of existing biosensors and possesses a wide range of applications and analytical capabilities, including the analysis of high-affinity interactions that are difficult to measure with conventional devices, dual specificity interaction analysis, and enzyme kinetics analysis of nucleic acid-related enzymes. Additionally, the chip can be reused multiple times. Since DNA is used for immobilization, it allows for a high degree of freedom in presenting molecules on the chip, such as immobilizing two types of molecules. There are also no effects from the immobilization matrix. Furthermore, being a sensor that uses nucleic acids allows for easy implementation of enzyme kinetics analysis for nucleic acid-related enzymes such as polymerases and endonucleases, and it demonstrates significant power in evaluating inhibitors of viral proliferation. The modular design of the device also enables easy high-throughput capabilities. It can be utilized in a wide range of research, from drug discovery to biophysical fundamental research on biomolecules.

We would like to express our congratulations on the continued prosperity of your esteemed company. Our company will be exhibiting at the following trade show, where we will be showcasing a number of products, including our new product, the Packaging Container Air Leak Test (Pin Hole Inspection) Device | MSQ-2003 series. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience during your busy schedule, but we would like to cordially invite you to attend this event. 【 Trade Show Name 】 【 Dates 】 【 Venue/Booth Number 】

Nitto Kohki will exhibit at the "30th Mechanical Components Technology Exhibition [Tokyo]" held at Makuhari Messe Hall 5 from July 9 (Wednesday) to July 11 (Friday). [Booth Number: Hall 5 31-32] At this exhibition, we will showcase a variety of products, including the electric suction hand "e-VEE" with a built-in pump that does not require compressed air, a cordless belt sander, the electric driver "Delvo" that can be mounted on robots, and the "Flow Monitor" that allows for easy visualization of the flow of cooling water in molds and other applications.

Yamamoto Vinitar Co., Ltd. will be exhibiting at the "Frozen, Retort, and Instant Food Material Technology Exhibition" held at "Pacifico Yokohama Exhibition Hall C." Concurrently, the "2nd Nutritional Food Material Exhibition (a B to B food material exhibition focused on health and nutrition)" and the "9th P&B Japan" (a retail, baking, and confectionery exhibition) will also take place. At our booth, we will showcase a demonstration of the 'Range Type' high-frequency thawing device, along with a panel display of high-frequency thawing devices (small batch type; processing capacity of 60kg to 170kg/h, medium batch type; processing capacity of 200kg to 500kg/h, medium to large continuous type; processing capacity of 200kg to 4000kg/h) and provide a consultation desk for high-frequency and microwave heating. If you have any concerns regarding heating, drying, thawing, sterilization, secondary heating sterilization, or pest control using high-frequency/microwave technology, please visit us. [Main Examples of Thawing and Heating Processes] - Heating and drying for confectionery and baking, tempering and melting of butter, thawing of meat, pork, chicken, canned fish, squid, octopus, etc., secondary sterilization of prepared foods, and more. We look forward to your visit. [Exhibited Equipment] ■ High-frequency thawing device 　・ Range type

We will showcase our new product "BLFF," a palletizing foam gripper that weighs only 1.9 kg and measures 350mm×250mm, ideal for bulk picking. We will also introduce various products that cater to different work applications, including durable suction cups and solutions for bag handling. Additionally, we are implementing energy-saving proposals by replacing ejectors to reduce compressed air consumption, which has become a challenge in many industries. If you have any issues with adhesion or transport, please feel free to consult with us at the venue. ■ Lightweight Foam Gripper for Collaborative Robots "CVGC Series" Despite weighing only 1.9 kg, this gripper has a theoretical lifting force of 100 kg, maximizing the payload capacity of collaborative robots. ■ Gripper for Films This gripper is designed to transport thin films gently, minimizing marks left on the surface. By utilizing 3D printing, we can accommodate highly flexible shape designs tailored to specific workpieces and applications. ■ Energy Saving Comparison Panel "Why does a single ejector consume less compressed air compared to a multi-stage ejector?" You can actually verify the differences in compressed air consumption through a comparative display using a flow meter and actual equipment.

[Lecturer] Chairman of the Stationary Battery Optimization and Safety Promotion Liaison Committee (BESST) Representative Director / Osaka University Visiting Professor Yoshiyuki Nishimura Advisor of Captex Co., Ltd. Masayuki Yasuda [Key Lecture Content] Since the late 2010s, the introduction of stationary batteries has become more widespread, particularly in Europe, the United States, South Korea, and China, leading to an increase in fire incidents and construction and operational troubles. In Japan, the market for grid-connected batteries has been rapidly expanding since the 2020s. Although the development of various standards and guidelines is progressing, the entry of various operators, not just those familiar with batteries, continues, necessitating careful attention in areas such as product selection, safety verification, and operational management. This time, while overviewing the role of batteries in Japan's power system, their essential value, and current issues, we will explain the correct ways to select and use batteries in the future, including how to formulate business strategies that encompass medium- to long-term business models.
