In a capacitance type pressure sensor (1) including capacitance detecting portions formed in opposed regions in a capacitance chamber which is at least partially formed of a diaphragm, the capacitance detecting portions being a pressure-sensitive capacitance detecting portion (101) formed in a region of the diaphragm having large sensitivity with respect to a pressure and a reference capacitance detecting portion (102) formed in a region of the diaphragm having small sensitivity with respect to a pressure, there is provided the capacitance type pressure sensor which is entirely small in size and superior in reliability by independently detecting a signal output value of the reference capacitance detecting portion (102).

There are provided foods and beverages that will suppress the absorption of dietary lipids, thereby suppressing the rise of triglyceride in blood. High-molecular weight polyphenol fractions recovered from oolong tea are added to foods or beverages as an active ingredient for inhibiting lipase activity. The foods and beverages of the present invention are safe and their inherent flavor has not been impaired; hence, they may be taken in routinely so that the lipase inhibitory action of the high-molecular weight polyphenol fractions will suppress the rise of triglyceride in blood and prevent obesity.

To provide a preventive or ameliorating agent for liver diseases associated with hepatopathy comprising an omega-9 unsaturated fatty acid as an active ingredient.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel flavone C-glycoside derivatives or salts thereof, especially those showing an anti-allergic effect, and compositions containing them. Recently, cases of allergic diseases, especially pollenosis and atopic dermatitis have increased to such a degree that they have become a social problem. Flavones and their glycosides have been reported to have the effect of inhibiting histamine release from mast cells or an immunosuppressive effect and expected for application as allergy therapies. However, most flavones exhibit their effects only at high doses, so that effective compounds at lower doses are highly desired. The present invention provides novel components capable of treating allergic diseases at low doses and compositions containing them.
摘要:
A capacitive pressure sensor is provided which is capable of highly accurately and reliably measuring pressure over a wide range from an extremely low level to a high level without being affected by environmental changes. The capacitive pressure sensor is constructed of a first diaphragm; a second diaphragm arranged in parallel with the first diagram; a diaphragm support arranged between the first and second diaphragms for supporting the first and second diaphragms along the periphery thereof to define a space isolated from the outside; a plurality of pillars having respective ends fixed on the opposing surfaces of the first and second diaphragms for securely supporting the first and second diaphragms; a movable electrode formed on one of the opposing surfaces of the first and second diaphragms; and a fixed electrode formed in the space without contacting with the plurality of pillars and securely supported by the diaphragm support. Pressure values measured by the capacitive pressure sensor are substantially free from errors due to fluctuations in atmospheric pressure and errors caused by aging changes of residual stress on the bonding interface.

A nerve-regenerating agent comprising, as an active ingredient, arachidonic acid and/or a compound containing arachidonic acid as a constituent fatty acid.
摘要:
A composition with a preventive or improvement effect on symptoms or diseases associated with stress-induced behavior disorders, comprising arachidonic acid and/or a compound comprising arachidonic acid as a constituent fatty acid.
摘要:
A composition having an activity of ameliorating the reduced amount of diurnal activity and/or depressive symptoms, comprising arachidonic acid and/or a compound having arachidonic acid as a constituent fatty acid.
摘要:
An electrostatic capacity-type pressure sensor includes a diaphragm support body, first and second lids, a fixed electrode, a coupling member, an electrode support member, and a movable electrode. The diaphragm support body is formed into a tube shape. The first and second lids have thin diaphragm portions and thick fixing portions formed integrally with peripheral edge portions of the diaphragm portions and are arranged to face each other by bringing the fixing portions in tight contact with the two end portions of the diaphragm support body. The first and second lids separate the interior of the diaphragm support body from the outside by closing the two end portions of the diaphragm support body. The fixed electrode is formed on the inner surface of the fixing portion of at least one of the first and second lids. The coupling member has two ends respectively connected to the first and second lids to couple the diaphragm portions facing each other. The electrode support member is supported by the coupling member and arranged between the first and second lids at a predetermined interval. The movable electrode is formed on the electrode support member so as to face the fixed electrode. The movable electrode and the fixed electrodes are arranged parallel to each other at a predetermined interval to constitute a capacitor.
