The associated video describes how to search for Vespula wasp nests, a method developed by amateur wasp chasers.
An ultra-high-speed western blotting technique is developed by improving the kinetics of antigen-antibody binding through cyclic draining and replenishing (CDR) technology in conjunction with an immunoreaction enhancing agent.
