Abstract: The object of invention is to provide solid milk with favorable solubility and enough strength and the method of manufacturing the solid milk. The solid milk of the invention has X-ray diffraction pattern of its surface area that has a main peak of 2?=10-15° at 2?=10-11° or at 2?=12-13°. A method for the manufacture of solid milk comprises compressing powdered milk to obtain compressed powdered milk; humidifying the compressed powdered milk to obtain humidified compressed powdered milk; and drying the humidified compressed powdered milk to obtain the solid milk. A part of amorphous lactose at the surface of the solid milk 12 is crystallized at the steps of humidifying step and drying.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing solid milk having suitable hardness for practical use by manufacturing powdered milk having good compaction moldability. In the manufacturing method of solid milk of the present invention, powdered milk for manufacturing solid milk is produced (S100), and then solid milk is produced by produced powdered milk. This manufacturing process (S100) comprises a gas dispersal process (S112) and a spray drying process (S114). In the gas dispersal process (S112), a prescribed gas is dispersed into liquid milk which is an ingredient of the powdered milk. In the spray drying process (S114), the liquid milk having a dispersed prescribed gas is sprayed, and the sprayed liquid milk is dried. By performing these processes, powdered milk is obtained. Solid milk is manufactured by solidifying the powdered milk.

Abstract: A protein introduction method with which protein can be introduced into cells with excellent safety is provided. A target protein is supported on a carrier for protein introduction that is made from a clay mineral, and by adding this to cells it is possible to introduce the target protein into the cells. The clay mineral is preferably a layered clay mineral, and as the clay mineral it is possible to use montmorillonite, vermiculite, and illite, for example.
