摘要:
A probiotic lactobacillus was discovered from lactobacilli of the Lactobacillus genus independently isolated from human adult feces. The probiotic lactobacillus was selected from other bacterial strains for: (1) being highly resistant to gastric acid/bile acid; (2) having a high promoting activity on IL-12 production from mouse derived spleen cells and a high Th1/Th2 balance-improving effect; (3) having a high ability to inhibit the production of antigen-specific IgE induced by intraperitoneally administering ovalbumin to BALB/c mice; (4) having a high ability to inhibit the production of antigen-specific IgE induced by orally administering a food antigen to C57BL/6N mice; (5) having a high Natural Killer cell-activating ability; (6) having a high IL-12 production-promoting activity on spleen cells and mesenteric lymph node cells derived from mice immunized with ovalbumin and a high Th1/Th2 balance-improving effect; and (7) having a high ability to suppress eosinophilia induced by a cedar pollen-extracted antigen. This discovery led to the completion of the present invention.
摘要:
The determination of deterioration of a NOx storage reduction catalyst (4) is carried out more accurately. When a reducing agent is supplied from a supply device (5) to the NOx catalyst (4), a first supply of the reducing agent and a second supply of the reducing agent are carried out in a sequential manner by adjusting an amount of the reducing agent in such a manner that an air fuel ratio of the exhaust gas becomes a predetermined rich air fuel ratio, and a determination whether or not the NOx catalyst (4) has deteriorated is made based on a detected value of a detection device (8), which detects NH3 in the exhaust gas at the downstream side of the NOx catalyst (4), after a predetermined period of time has elapsed from the start of the first supply of the reducing agent, and after the start of the second supply of the reducing agent.
摘要:
According to a method of generating a key of the present invention, a first device and a second device are first brought into contact with one vibrator. In this state, the vibrator generates vibration. A first acceleration sensor provided in the first device and a second acceleration sensor provided in the second device detect the vibration. Subsequently, the first device notifies the second device of a first feature value based upon the detection result of the first acceleration sensor. The second device notifies the first device of a second feature value based upon the detection result of the second acceleration sensor. Then the first device compares the notified second feature value with the first feature value and generates a key based upon the comparison result. The second device compares the notified first feature value with the second feature value and generates a key based upon the comparison result.

摘要:
In an internal combustion engine, an NOx selective reduction catalyst is arranged in the engine exhaust passage and a urea aqueous solution stored in a urea aqueous solution tank is fed to the NOx selective reduction catalyst where the NOx is selectively reduced. Opening and closing of the urea aqueous solution refill port of the urea aqueous solution tank are detected and it is judged if the urea aqueous solution is refilled in the urea aqueous solution tank. When it is judged that the NOx purification rate has fallen to an allowable level or less at the time of engine operation right after the urea aqueous solution is refilled in the urea aqueous solution tank, it is judged that the refilled urea aqueous solution is abnormal.
