摘要:
A highly versatile method of a sterilization and a sterilization apparatus, in which objects with poor heat resistance that are to be sterilized, such as plastic products, can be sterilized without incurring thermal damage, with such a strong sterilization power that spores can be killed. A treatment chamber is filled with a treatment gas containing HCHO, and any sterilization objects placed in the treatment chamber are sterilized. During sterilization, while maintaining the interior of the treatment chamber at a pre-determined temperature (T1), the treatment gas is fed into the treatment chamber, and the sterilization objects are exposed to the treatment gas for a pre-determined period of time (h1). Thereafter, the feeding of treatment gas into the treatment chamber is discontinued, and while the treatment gas remains in the treatment chamber, the interior of the treatment chamber is heated to a heat treatment temperature (T2) that is higher than the pre-determined temperature (T1) but does not exceed the heat-resistance temperature (T0) of the objects to be sterilized.

This invention relates to a medicament containing as an active ingredient, a novel propanolamine having a 1,4-benzodioxane ring or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof: The present compound is represented by the above formula wherein R1-3 may be the same or different and each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a hydroxy group, a (C1–C6)alkyl group, a (C1–C6)alkoxy group, a (C1–C6)alkylsulfonamido group, or a phenyl group; R4-5 each represents a hydrogen atom or a (C1–C6)alkyl group; and A represents any of a benzene ring, a pyridine ring and a pyrimidine ring.This compound is useful as a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for diabetes, obesity, hyperlipemia, depression, a respiratory disease, or a gastrointestinal disease.
摘要:
A fluid compressor that ensures the discharge of water from a discharge port when water is drawn into or condensed in a pump chamber. The compressor includes a pump chamber for drawing in fluid. The pump chamber includes a bottom part located in a lower portion of the pump chamber. Two rotors arranged in the pump chamber are rotated to compress the fluid in the pump chamber. A discharge port located in the bottom part discharges the compressed fluid out of the pump chamber. The bottom part defines a guide surface formed continuously from the discharge port. The guide surface is sloped downward so that water on the guide surface moves downward to the discharge port due to gravitational force.

In an ink jet printer, ink ejection beyond the printing medium is reduced when performing printing without leaving a space along at least one of the edges of the printing medium. For this purpose, performance of data processing in the process of image processing relating to the image data of the marginless edge portion reduces a printing density of the area to lessen an ink application amount to the edge portion. For example, data processing is performed in such manner that a predetermined coefficient smaller than 1 is multiplied by the image data of the area.

Depsipeptides represented by the formula (1): (wherein: R1 is a straight or branched alkyl group of 5-20 carbon atoms or a straight or branched alkoxymethyl group of 5-15 carbon atoms; R2 is —A—B, —A—B—W, —A—B—W—D or —A—B—W—D—E, R3 is a hydroxyl group, a lower alkoxy group, a benzyloxy group, —Z, —Z—G or —Z—G—J, the above A, B, D, E, G and J independently each other are a residue of an amino acid selected from alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, serine, threonine, lysine, hydroxylysine, arginine, cysteine, methionine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, aspartic acid, asparagine, glutamic acid, glutamine and the like or an N—(C1-C4) alkyl derivative of these amino acid residues; the above W and Z independently each other are a residue of an amino acid selected from aspartic acid, asparagine, glutamic acid, glutamine, alanine, serine or lysine) or pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof. The depsipeptides have an activity of promoting the production of apolipoprotein E and are useful as a therapeutic agent for neurologic damages, especially for dementia, and further as a therapeutic agent for hyperlipemia.
摘要:
An image processing method and apparatus which makes possible image processing based on attribute specification contents specified by an attribute specification image by reading an original including an original image and the attribute specification image which specifies the contents of processings to be performed on the original image.A scanner reads a format original containing bar codes indicating data attribute specifications such as character limit range, character color, etc. The read bar code patterns are analyzed and the attribute specification data such as character limit range, character color, etc. is stored in RAM once. Then, the original to be output is read and stored in RAM as image data. Processings (such as color conversion, etc.) corresponding to the aforementioned attribute specification data are performed in relation to this image data. After all of the processings specified by the attribute specification data has been carried out in relation to this image data, the resulting data is printed onto a printer.
摘要:
A swash plate tiltably supported on a drive shaft is controlled by adjusting the pressure in a crank chamber. When an electromagnetic valve is de-excited, the high-pressure refrigerant gas in a discharge chamber is supplied to the crank chamber so that the inclination angle of the swash plate is shifted to its minimum inclination from its maximum inclination. An open/close mechanism located in a suction passage gradually opens or closes the suction passage in accordance with the differential pressure between the pressure in the external refrigeration circuit located upstream the open/close mechanism and the pressure in a suction chamber. When the inclination angle of the swash plate is minimized, the open/close mechanism closes the suction passage. It is therefore possible to prevent frosting while also suppressing rapid changes in load torque.

An image forming apparatus for forming a color image on a recording material includes mounting means for detachably mounting a plurality of process cartridges each including a photosensitive drum and a developing roller. Movable members are provided that are actable on first and second clutches for switching between an operation state for transmitting the driving force to the developing rollers and a non-operation state not transmitting the driving force thereto. Also provided is a switching member for switching among a first mode for transmitting the driving force to the developing rollers of all of the process cartridges, a second mode for not transmitting the driving force to any one of the developing rollers, and a third mode for transmitting the driving force only to the developing roller of a black process cartridge.

A novel method for manufacturing 5-methyl-2-(piperidin-4-ylamino)pyridine is established. This method can be used as an industrial manufacturing method to produce a 4-(5-methylpyridin-2-ylamino)piperidine-1-carboxylic acid derivative represented by the general formula, (wherein R represents a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or an aralkyl group having 7 to 12 carbon atoms) in a reaction solution having an aromatic monocyclic hydrocarbon as a reaction medium, in the presence of sodium triacetoxyborohydride as a reducing agent, or after adding sodium borohydride and acetic acid to the reaction solution in advance.
