摘要:
The present invention provides a method of encapsulating a low molecular weight drug in a polymer micelle, the method comprising the steps of: (a) dissolving or dispersing the drug having an electric charge in an aqueous medium; (b) preparing an aqueous medium containing a polymer micelle comprising a block copolymer having an overall hydrophobic region and a hydrophilic region, the overall hydrophobic region containing hydrophobic side chains and side chains having an electric charge opposite to that of the low molecular weight drug in random order; (c) mixing the aqueous medium having the low molecular weight drug dissolved or dispersed therein and the aqueous medium containing the polymer micelle; and (d) adjusting the pH of the mixed aqueous medium to a pH at which the encapsulation of the low molecular weight drug is stabilized.

In a printing apparatus which prints using a printhead, a printing controller for feedback-controlling driving of a motor includes a control information generation unit which generates control information for a driving torque of the motor on the basis of a first driving pattern, a comparison unit which compares the control information and a threshold for determining an overload on driving of the motor, and a setting unit which sets a second driving pattern for changing a load on driving of the motor by the control information, instead of the first driving pattern, on the basis of the comparison result of the comparison unit. Control of the motor is switched in accordance with the load state.

Pharmaceutical compositions for prevention or treatment of diseases caused by interleukin-6 production, comprising an antibody to interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R antibody). As the IL-6R antibody, an antibody of animals other than the human such as mice, rats, etc., a chimeric antibody between these and a human antibody, a reshaped human antibody, etc. may be used. The pharmaceutical compositions are useful for prevention or treatment of diseases caused by interleukin-6 production such as plasmacytosis, anti-IgGl-emia, anemia, nephritis, etc.

Disclosed is a recording apparatus that helps to achieve a reduction in size and cost. The recording apparatus has a U-turn sheet feeding mechanism for reversing and feeding a recording medium and a duplex transport mechanism for reversing the recording medium and performing printing on both sides thereof, in which the same transport path serves as a transport path for transporting the recording medium from a U-turn sheet feeding roller to a main transport roller for transporting the recording medium to a printing portion and as a transport path for reversal in duplex transport. Further, a transport roller provided in the transport path from the U-turn sheet feeding roller to the main transport roller for transporting the recording medium to the printing portion is the same as a transport roller for duplex transport. A single transport roller serves both as the U-turn transport roller and as the duplex transport roller.

A wet type image forming apparatus having a developing solution container a preparatory developing solution container, which is adapted to store developing solution to be supplied to the developing solution container, and an attachment unit to which the preparatory developing solution container is attached, is provided. The preparatory developing solution container includes a coupling portion removably coupled to the attachment unit, a developing solution path being formed in the coupling portion to allow the developing solution to flow therein, a blocking system blocking the developing solution path, and a stirring unit stirring the developing solution in the preparatory developing solution container. The attachment unit includes a releasing system to open the developing solution path blocked by the blocking system when the coupling portion of the preparatory developing solution container is coupled to the attachment unit.
摘要:
A power supply line is wired in a loop from a battery power supply, and a power supply relay circuit is installed intermediately of the power supply line such that power is supplied from the power supply relay circuit to an electric load connected to a terminal unit of an intensive wiring line. By this arrangement, not only wires for control signals but also wires for power supply can be reduced. The terminal unit may serve also as the power supply relay circuit.

According to a first aspect of the present invention, an objective function is defined for minimizing a number of candidate tree graphs for accommodating the communication paths and a first constraint equation is defined for causing all of the candidate tree graphs to form a tree. A second constraint equation is defined for accommodating the communication paths in one of the candidate tree graphs. A third constraint equation is defined for determining whether each of the candidate tree graphs is used to accommodate the communication paths. A mathematical programming problem formed by the objective function, and the first, second and third constraint equations is solved to obtain a plurality of trees in which the communication paths can be accommodated.
