摘要:
An interleukin-6 suppressive agent comprising lactoperoxidase as an active ingredient is used as a pharmaceutical preparation or the like for prevention and/or therapy of a disease caused by production of interleukin-6, such as thrombocytosis, myeloma, Castleman syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, or influenza-virus infectious disease.
摘要:
A process for continuously producing a thermoplastic copolymer, in which a copolymer (A) containing unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester units and unsaturated carboxylic acid units is produced and in succession heat-treated to perform intramolecular cyclization reaction by dehydration and/or dealcoholization reaction, for producing a thermoplastic copolymer (B) containing glutaric anhydride units and the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester units. The obtained copolymer is excellent in heat resistance and colorless transparency and very small in foreign matter content.

Disclosed is a disinfectant which is safe, has few adverse side-effects, can be ingested together with a food or beverage by adding the disinfectant to the food or beverage, shows a bactericidal effect in the oral cavity, and has no problem even when ingested on a daily basis over a long period. Also disclosed is a food additive comprising the disinfectant. Specifically, disclosed is an oral disinfectant for the disinfection of an oral bacterium, which comprises lactoperoxidase, glucose oxidase, glucose and a pH-adjusting component.

摘要:
When a user steps on a footswitch, high-frequency output power is delivered. A control circuit included in a diathermic power supply calculates the impedance ZSn that is offered by a living tissue immediately after delivery of high-frequency output power is started during the n-th delivery period. The control circuit also calculates the impedance ZEn that is offered thereby immediately before delivery of high-frequency output power is discontinued with elapse of predetermined time. The control circuit then discontinues delivery of high-frequency output power for the predetermined time, and calculates a difference ΔZn between the impedances. When the difference meets a predetermined condition that implies coagulation or when the number of times of delivery reaches a predetermined value, the control circuit discontinues delivery of high-frequency output power.

The present invention provides an artificial dura mater prepared from an biodegradable and bioabsorbable synthetic polymer sheet and having a total light transmittance of 30% or more as defined by JIS K7105, a haze (cloudiness value) of 80% or less as defined by JIS K7105 or a specular glossiness at 60° (Gs 60°) of 10-20% as defined by JIS Z8741.
摘要:
A high-frequency treatment apparatus has a high-frequency treatment tool having, at its distal end portion, a treatment portion for coagulating or incising tissue. A high-frequency output power supply unit is electrically connected to the high-frequency treatment tool to selectively generate a high-frequency coagulation output for coagulating tissue and a high-frequency incision output for incising the tissue on the basis of a signal generated upon manipulating a manipulation portion. The manipulation portion has a control mechanism for causing the high-frequency treatment tool to incise tissue after coagulation of the tissue by the high-frequency treatment tool is completed.
摘要:
A pneumatic tire in which a foamed rubber layer having closed cells is provided at a surface of a tire tread which substantially contacts at least a road surface, wherein the foamed rubber layer has closed cells whose average diameter is about 1 m to about 120 m and has an expansion ratio of about 1% to about 100%, a solid-phase rubber portion of the foamed rubber layer has a rubber composition in which at least both of a diene-type rubber and silica are mixed, and an amount of the silica is about 10 to about 80 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the diene-type rubber. The pneumatic tire exhibits excellent traction and braking abilities and controllability on snowy, icy and wet road surfaces.
