A pH glass electrode are made of lithium-rich special glass, and the durability is often inferior in comparison with general hard glass. The glass electrode is often used under strong alkalinity or acidic conditions, and...

We have investigated the intestinal absorption and metabolism of the polyphenols contained in Acanthopanax sieboldianus Makino (Ukogi in Japanese) in rat plasma using a liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). Uk...

The aim of this study was to clarify the current situation and challenges of community-based rehabilitation (CBR) in depopulated areas from the perspective of physicians and to develop a model suited to such contexts. Se...

Recently, diversification of eating habits has been advancing in Japan. In such a situation, issues have been raised on the eating habits of younger generation, especially university students. The purpose of our study is...

In contemporary society, an increasing number of people have excessive stress which affects their physical and mental conditions. As for methods of alleviating stress, listening to music and aromatherapy can be cited. Th...

The aim of this study is to examine the adverse effects of hypoxic condition using by hypoxic device for the acclimatization to altitude. Eight untrained male volunteers (mean age 28.2 years old) participated in this stu...

Elimination behavior of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) molecules adsorbed on Cu(II)-supported hydroxyapatite (Cu-HAp) using warmed ultrapure water was investigated, and H2S adsorption ability of Cu-HAp before and after exposure ...

Farnesyl diphosphate synthase from Geobacillus stearothermophilus (GsFPPS) is a thermophilic enzyme which belongs to the prenyltransferase family. We found that the point mutation of an amino acid located on the fifth po...

The purpose of this study was to clarify whether plasma concentrations of GH and lactate (La) are concurrently elevated by resistance training under 15.4 % of hypoxic conditions. Six athletes (age, 21.6 ｱ 1.0 y; height...

The lightweight technique for automobile is urgently needed to achieve the aim of CO2 emission control. In this paper, the mechanical properties and the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of carbon fiber reinforced polypr...

The water level sensor networks with TWE-Lite 2.4GHz Wireless Modules using a stand alone solar photovoltaic system was fabricated.　The transmission of signal is available for direct distance of 400m far from the measu...

This study fabricates 50SiO2・50GeO2 and 50SiO2・(50-x)GeO2・xR2O (R: Na, K, Rb, and Cs, x = 5?40) glasses using the conventional melt-quenching method. Their photoluminescence characteristics were investigated by mea...

The spin-trapping ESR (ST-ESR) method, which observes unstable radicals as stable spin adducts using electron spin resonance (ESR), is an effective experimental method for evaluating chemical reactions involving radical ...

Two types of solid-state electrochemical cells were designed and their CO2 gas-sensing characteristics were compared. One was a heterojunction-type sensor, whereas the other was a conventional homojunction-type sensor. A...

With the growth of the portable device with camera, we can take a variety of photos. In addition, with the higher resolution of the camera, it becomes possible to recognize a character in the scene taken by the camera. T...

The present study aimed to examine the psychological structure of a critical attitude against governmental bureaucracy in Japan on the basis of Ortega's concept of the "masses" and Weber's concept of ...

Golf clubs mainly consist of three parts, namely head, shaft, and grip. It was in the shaft that composite materials are used most. The shaft plays a role of storing up energy during the swing, by way of deforming itself...

In this study, we investigated the thermal stability of polymer networks, which plays an important role in the function of polymer network-liquid crystal composite films. A glass transition temperature of the polymer net...
