Preparation of Bacteria-Disintegrated Liquid

[0234](Cloning of Lysine Decarboxylase Gene (cadA)) A genome DNA prepared from an Escherichia coli W3110 strain (ATCC27325) according to an ordinary method was used as a mold for PCR.

[0235]Oligonucleotides (synthesized by Invitrogen in trust) having base sequences shown in sequence numbers 1 and 2 which were designed on the basis of the base sequence of lysine decarboxylase gene (cadA) (GenBank Accession No. AP009048) were used as primers for PCR. These primers respectively have restriction enzyme recognition sequences of KpnI and XbaI near a 5′ terminal.

[0236]A reaction cycle made up of denaturation at 94° C. for 30 seconds, annealing at 55° C. for 30 seconds, and an elongation reaction at 68° C. for two minutes was carried out 30 times using a PCR reaction liquid (25 μL) including the genome DNA (1 ng / μL) and the respective primers (0.5 pmol / μL), thereby performing PCR.

Abstract

A polymerizable composition for an optical material of the present invention includes polyisocyanate (a) including aliphatic polyisocyanate (a1) and a modified aliphatic polyisocyanate (a2), an episulfide (b), and a polythiol (c).

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a polymerizable composition for an optical material, an optical material obtained using the same, and a plastic lens.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Compared with inorganic lenses, plastic lenses have a low weight, are not easily cracked, and can be dyed, and thus, recently, have rapidly become widespread in optical elements such as spectacle lenses and camera lenses.[0003]For resins for plastic lenses, there has been a demand for additional improvement in performance, and there has been a demand for an increase in the refractive index, an increase in the Abbe number, a decrease in the specific weight, an improvement of the heat resistance, and the like. Thus far, a variety of resin materials for lenses have been developed and put into use.[0004]Among them, optical materials made of sulfide-based resins have a high refractive index and a high Abbe number and are being studied as ultrahigh refractive index materials having a refractive index ...
