Abstract:
Acceleration and automation of immunohistochemical staining are achieved as follows: an automatic electric field immunohistochemical staining apparatus is configured to provided with a sample mounting unit, a solution supply unit, an electric field stifling unit, and a washing unit; the sample mounting unit on which a glass substrate with a tissue specimen fixed thereto is mounted and the electric field stirring unit that includes an upper electrode are operated in coordination to activate an antigen in the tissue specimen; the sample mounting unit and the solution supply unit containing various solutions are operated in coordination to supply a primary-antibody-containing solution to the tissue specimen; the sample mounting unit and the electric field stirring unit are operated in coordination to perform an antigen-antibody reaction of the antigen in the tissue specimen and a primary antibody; and the electric field stirring unit and the washing unit are operated in coordination.
Abstract:
A polishing apparatus includes an electrode constituted as a plurality of electrode elements, a device of driving the electrode, and dielectric abrasive particles disposed between the electrode and a workpiece. Polishing pressure is applied to the particles by a Coulomb force generated when an alternating-current voltage is applied to the electrode.

Abstract:
An information recording layer consisting of a composite of an ordered alloy of L10 crystal structure selected from a group A, and MgO is used for a perpendicular magnetic recording medium. The group A includes an FePt ordered alloy, a CoPt ordered alloy, an FePd ordered alloy and an alloy thereof. This information recording layer has a very small magnetic domain structure and allows high density recording as seen from a signal output spectrum showing a result of a recording and reproducing evaluation of a magnetic recording medium in one example. The information recording layer can be formed at lower film formation temperature than a temperature of a composite thin film of an ordered alloy of L10 crystal structure according to a conventional technique.
