Abstract:
A fuel cell stack includes power generation cells, terminal plates, first cooling cells, and second cooling cells. The terminal plates are electrically connected to the power generation cells. The first cooling cells are interposed between the terminal plates, and a cooling liquid is supplied to the first cooling cells for cooling the power generation cells. The second cooling cells are interposed between the terminal plates. A predetermined number of power generation cells are interposed between the first cooling cell and the second cooling cell. A cooling air is supplied to the second cooling cell for cooing the power generation cells.
Abstract:
Electroporation electrodes are laminated to a permeable membrane to form an electrode membrane. Such an electrode membrane is useful for a continuous controlled delivery of a therapeutic agent through the skin or mucosa, when placed in direct contact with the skin or mucosa and by application of electric field pulses at specified intervals. An electrode membrane can be assembled such that it incorporates an iontophoretic electrode in the same device. This device can be jointly utilized for electroporation and iontophoretic drug delivery through the skin and mucosal membrane.

Abstract:
A device and assembly for administering antimicrobial for killing resident microorganisms on human skin and thereby effectively preventing infections caused by the microorganisms, are provided. The device for administering antimicrobial of the invention uses iontophoresis, and it comprises: a donor electrode (100) containing an antimicrobial; a reference electrode (110) provided as a counter electrode of the donor electrode; and a power unit (120) for applying current between the donor electrode and the reference electrode in such a manner as to allow the total amount of current applied to be 1 to 30 mA·min/cm2. The area on the skin to which the donor electrode (100) is applied is suitably 1 to 100 cm2. Thus, the catheter or injection needle insertion site on human skin is disinfected.
Abstract:
An electrophotographic toner contains a resin, a colorant and a releasing agent. The releasing agent has a solidifying point of from 79° C. to 109° C., and one peak in an endothermic curve measured by a differential scanning calorimeter. A difference between temperature to give a maximum endothermic peak of the releasing agent and an end-set temperature of the releasing agent is within 10° C. A melt viscosity of the releasing agent at 110° C. is in a range of from 4 mPa.s to 9 mPa.s. The releasing agent in one particle of the toner forms 3 or more domains. Domains having a ratio of a major axis to a minor axis which is in a range of from 5 to 15 occupy 90% or more by number based on the total number of domains.
