Abstract:
The present invention provides: a cellulose nanofiber enabling the provision of a high-performance sheet-like material; a method for producing the cellulose nanofiber; and a sheet-like material obtained from the cellulose nanofiber. A bamboo-derived cellulose nanofiber having a cellulose purity of at least 90%, a fiber diameter of 10-20 nm, and a crystallinity of at least 70% can be obtained by a method comprising: (1) a step for subjecting a bamboo material to an alkali treatment and a mechanical treatment to prepare bamboo fibers; (2) a step for delignificating the obtained bamboo fibers; (3) a step for mechanically spreading the delignificated bamboo fibers; (4) a step for removing hemicellulose from the spread bamboo fibers; and (5) a step for removing metal components from the bamboo fibers from which hemicellulose has been removed. A high strength sheet material having a tensile strength of 7-200 N for a basis weight of 10-210 g/m2 or a high strength sheet material having a tensile strength of 7-200 N for a density of 0.3-1.1 g/cm3 can be obtained by making this cellulose nanofiber into a sheet.

Abstract:
A problem of the present invention is to provide a switching power supply device and a pulse width modulation circuit capable of operating stably in synchronization with a clock signal. To solve the problem, a pulse width modulation circuit 3A in a switching power supply device 1A includes square-wave voltage output means 8A for, when an integrated voltage Vn rises to an upper threshold voltage or more, shifting a square-wave voltage VPWM to L level, or when the voltage Vn drops to a lower threshold voltage or less, shifting the voltage VPWM to H level, and clock means 6A for outputting a first clock signal VCL1 and a second clock signal VCL2, which are 180° out of phase from each other. The square-wave voltage output means 8A is adapted to: (1) if the clock signal VCL1 changes while the voltage Vn is dropping, shift the voltage VPWM to H level even when the voltage Vn has not yet reached the lower threshold voltage; and (2) if the clock signal VCL2 changes while the voltage Vn is rising, shift the voltage VPWM to L level even when the voltage Vn has not yet reached the upper threshold voltage.
Abstract:
When a metal catalyst is used as a catalyst in a catalyst layer of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell, improvement in catalytic activity and improvement in durability of the metal catalyst are intended. The catalyst composition of the present invention comprises a metal catalyst, a carbon material having a nitrogen-containing group on which the metal catalyst is carried, and an ionomer.
Abstract:
The present disclosure has solved problems associated with the TGF-β family or the like, which is called Myostatin/GDF-8 as a molecular mechanism and targeted by sarcopenia, by evaluating a pharmaceutical product in physiological aging models, and in particular, by evaluating an increase in muscle mass and an increase in muscle strength; and has overcome harmful effects by applying targets of diseases different from sarcopenia such as dystrophia. The present disclosure has unexpectedly found a use for an OK-1-related compound as a sarcopenia treatment method through a pathway different from that of Wnt signal (proliferation of muscle stem cells) associated with Wnt/β-catenin inhibition, and is thus provided due to the findings.
