Abstract:
The present invention provides a liposome production process which enables production of a liposome that has a nano-size particle diameter and a high water-soluble drug encapsulation rate. The process for producing a W1/O/W2 emulsion of the present invention includes the steps of (1) emulsifying an organic solvent (O) that is a volatile organic solvent, an aqueous solvent (W1) and a mixed lipid component (F1) to give a W1/O emulsion; and (2) dispersing the W1/O emulsion produced in step (1) in an aqueous solvent (W2) by use of a porous membrane, to give a W1/O/W2 emulsion, wherein the porous membrane has been surface-treated with a hydrophilic drug so as to allow its surface to have a water contact angle of 0 to 42° in the air.

Abstract:
An optical transmission hinge apparatus includes a first hinge portion for pivotally interconnecting a first casing and a second casing about a first axis, a first optical device provided in the first casing, a second optical device provided in the second casing and an optical guide path member for interconnecting the first optical device and the second optical device to enable optical transmission therebetween. The optical guide path member includes a bent portion, a first portion formed on one side of the bent portion and a second portion formed on the other side of the bent portion. The first portion is provided in the first casing to be coaxial with the first hinge portion, with a terminal end of the first portion being in opposition to the first optical device. The second portion is provided in the second casing, with a terminal end of the second portion being in opposition to the second optical device.
Abstract:
An optical coupling component for use in an optical communication connector is provided which comprises a pair of columnar sending side and receiving side optical functional sections and a joint section integrally molded with the optical functional sections and made from the same material as the material of the optically functional sections and having joint regions adjoining the side walls of the optical functional sections, the joint regions of the joint section having a circumferential length along the side walls of the optically functional sections which is equal to or less than a half circumference of the optically functional sections.
Abstract:
The object of the present invention is to suppress a decrease in the optical function of a sleeve by ensuring that a liquid chemical substance is not apt to remain on a peripheral surface of the sleeve even when the liquid chemical substance enters a connector. The present invention relates to an optical connector which is connected to an optical plug holding an optical fiber to a terminal end of which a ferrule is attached. The optical connector of the present invention has a guide pipe into which a ferrule is inserted and on an inner circumferential surface of which a supporting portion (a convexity) is formed, a light-emitting device, a light-receiving device, and a sleeve which is positioned by the supporting portion and optically connects the light-emitting device, the light-receiving device and the optical fiber. According to the present invention, there is a space between the guide pipe and the sleeve and, therefore, the phenomenon that a chemical substance adheres to a wide area and remains does not occur.
Abstract:
Attachments are respectively attached to one ends of a pair of light guides, which are integrally formed via a connecting portion, such that the attachments surround the one ends of the light guides. The one ends protrude from a rear face of a receptacle body and are opposed to a light-emitting device and a light-receiving device, respectively. The attachments are inserted and positioned in guide holes formed respectively on the light-emitting device and the light-receiving device, and the optical axes of the pair of light guides and the optical axes of the light-emitting device and the light-receiving device are aligned with each other.
Abstract:
An optical guide 43 is partly buried in a lens 43 on the diameter of its aperture, the lens 43 converging received light incident from the end face of an optical fiber onto a light receiving element 15 and the optical conductor 33 having a refractive index larger than that of the lens 43. The optical guide 33 is composed of a buried portion 33-1 and an extending portion 33-2, and transmitting light 22 incident on the optical guide 33 from the end face 33c of the extending portion 33-2 is reflected by a reflecting surface 33a and launched into the optical fiber. The transmitting light 22 is guided by the optical guide 33 to the end face of the optical fiber without leakage to the receiving-side portion.
Abstract:
A high-activity hydrotreating catalyst containing a uniformly dispersed active component at a high concentration, and particularly useful for deep desulfurization of a hydrocarbon oil for its high hydrodesulfurization activity. The present invention also provides a hydrotreating process using the same catalyst.
Abstract:
Fired nitride-base ceramics, i.e., silicon nitride or oxynitride, having a low carbon content and, therefore, low electrical and thermal conductivities, can be produced by heat treating a ceramic precursor comprising polysilazane, polysiloxazane or polycarbosilazane or a mixture thereof as the main ingredient in a reducing atmosphere such as hydrogen, ammonia or a gas containing these components, followed by firing.
