An electrical stimulation system for improving vertebral synostosis including a spinal cage formed with a porous structure in which a front side and a rear side are occluded, and inserted between a user's vertebrae to deliver electrical stimulation to the user, and a power supply device configured to transmit wireless power for generating electrical stimulation to the spinal cage, and enabling the user to wear the power supply device. Thus, the electrical stimulation system can enhance a user's spinal bone fusion.

The present disclosure relates to a microorganism that fixes carbon dioxide, presenting a new strategy capable of contributing to achieving carbon neutrality in bioprocesses through development of a CO 2 fixing yeast using S. cerevisiae , wherein, to address the redox imbalance problem and increase CO 2 fixation efficiency, a form-I RuBisCO-based CO 2 fixation pathway was established in a xylose isomerase-based xylose metabolic strain, the fermentation rate and productivity were remarkably improved by deleting the endogenous reductase genes GRE3 and YPR1, which induce xylitol accumulation, resulting in a significant increase in a yield of ethanol production along with efficient CO 2 fixation, the finally developed SJ11 YΔGΔ strain had significantly reduced xylitol accumulation, greatly improved fermentation rate, and maximized CO 2 fixation efficiency and ethanol productivity compared to existing strains.

An optical integrated device may include a substrate, a first laser diode oscillating in a transverse magnetic mode (TM mode) on the substrate, and a second laser diode oscillating in a transverse electric mode (TE mode) on the substrate, wherein the first laser diode includes a first body in a shape of a disk, and through holes penetrating the first body.

The present invention relates to an antibody for detecting acetylation of COX2 protein, and uses thereof, and more specifically, to an antibody that specifically recognizes the acetylation of S565 residue of the COX2 protein; and uses thereof for diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases or inflammatory diseases. An antibody or a functional fragment thereof according to the present invention specifically binds to an acetylated residue of COX2 protein, and can thus be very effectively used for diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases, inflammatory diseases, and the like in which the degree of acetylation of S565 residue of the COX2 protein is reduced.

An optical coherence tomography apparatus includes a light source for emitting source light, a splitter for dividing the source light into (1-1)-th light and (1-2)-th light, a reference group for receives the (1-1)-th light and including a mirror reflecting the received (1-1)-th light back to the splitter, a sample group for inspecting a display panel using the (1-2)-th light and then reflecting the (1-2)-th light reflected from the display panel back to the splitter, a detector for converting an interference signal into an electrical signal, and a processing unit for receiving the electrical signal from the detector and generating a tomographic image. The splitter generates the interference signal by combining the (1-1)-th light reflected from the reference group and the (1-2)-th light reflected from the sample group. Speed at which the sample group inspects the display panel is variable.
