Abstract: A compression device is provided which allows anyone to easily uniformly and thinly compress fibrin-gel without damage. A fibrin-gel compression device 1 includes: a first member 10 having a handle part 11 and a pressing convex part 12; and a second member 20 having a handle part 21 and an accommodating concave part 22 forming a shape corresponding to the pressing convex part. The first and second members are characterized by being partially joined or rotatably supported to each other to variably adjust a separation distance d between the pressing convex part and the accommodating concave part to be able to accommodate and compress fibrin-gel 30 therebetween. Further, it is preferable that a shape difference is provided between the convex part 12 and the concave part 22 or a stopper member is provided on at least one of the handle parts 12, 21 to provide the separation distance d of 1 mm to 2 mm when compressing the fibrin-gel 30.

Abstract: [Problems] To provide an amino acid-containing acidic beverage having a good acidic taste and also to provide a method for manufacturing the same. [Solving Means] Phosphoric acid and organic acid are used together as acidulating agents.

Abstract: In this application is disclosed a raw material liquid for a carbonated beverage wherein Aspartame is used as a sweetener and wherein an emulsifier having an HLB value of 1 to 14 or/and an emulsifier having a molecular weight of 50 to 300 is/are contained, according to which the problems which are caused by the Aspartame-attributable foam can be solved by a method free from the problems with respect to the sensory aspect, safety and effect sustainability of a product.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apple tree having a medium vigor, rounded and crenated leaves, exhibiting excellent resistance to Alternaria blotch and bearing a medium size fruit maturing mid-season and having high productivity with a slightly heavy preharvest fruit drop. The fruit has a oblate shape, has yellow colored skin and has excellent storage quality. The flesh of the fruit is yellowish white, juicy and firm, and further, has a strong sweetness and medium sourness, thereby providing a good sweet-sour balance and rich taste, and has an excellent eating quality.

Abstract: A key telephone system with a re-dialing feature has a memory with two memory areas. One of the two memory areas is provided for an outside-line call, and the other is provided for an internal-line call to a particular extension. Each memory area memorizes a dialed number therein and replaces a number of the last intended call, previously present in the memory area, with the most recently dialed number. A re-dialing push-button automatically retrieves the number of a last intended outside-line call, memorized in the outside-line memory area, when actuated following a selection of an outside-line call, or the number of a last intended inside-line call to a particular extension, memorized in the extension memory area, when actuated following a selection of an internal-line call to a particular extension.

Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of russet type Japanese pear tree that has strong tree vigor and a strong resistance to black spot disease. This pear tree bears large size fruit, the harvesting stage of the fruit being mid to late in season after the ‘Hosui’ cultivar. This pear tree bears large size fruit having excellent quality, such as being highly sweet and weakly acidic.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apple tree having a strong vigor, rounded and serrate leaves, exhibiting excellent resistance to Alternaria blotch, bearing a medium size fruit maturing mid-season and having high productivity with little early fruit drop and preharvest fruit drop. The fruit has a rounded shape with good appearance, having solid, deep red colored skin and having relatively good storage quality, which is slightly inferior to the seed parent. The flesh of the fruit is yellowish white, juicy and firm, and further, has a moderate sweetness, weak sourness and an aroma, thereby providing a good sweet-sour balance, and an excellent eating quality.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a Japanese pear tree having a moderate vigor and an easily maintained moderate spur development, a high resistance to black spot disease and a high productivity. This tree produces an oblate-shaped fruit which matures early in the season, i.e., from the start to the middle of August, in the central part of the Kanto district, Japan. The fruit has a medium size and the same weight as `Kosui`, i.e., 250 to 300 g, a yellowish brown skin, and a white flesh which is soft, crisp and very juicy with a high Brix the pH of the juice being about 5.2, a particular smell without aromatic flavor, giving an excellent dessert quality.

Abstract: Disclosed is a Japanese pear tree bearing fruit with light green yellow skin, having a strong vigor, a stout shoot and a long internode, a high resistance to scab, and a high productivity. This tree produces a circular-ellipse-shaped fruit which matures early in the season, i.e., from the middle to the end of August, in the central part of the Kanto district, Japan. The fruit has a medium size and the same weight as "Chikusui", i.e., 250 to 300 g, and a yellowish white flesh which is soft, crisp and very juicy with a high Brix, the pH of the juicy being about 4.7-4.8, and little aromatic flavor, thus having an excellent dessert quality.

Abstract: Disclosed is a Japanese pear tree bearing fruit with yellow-reddish-brown skin; having good vigor, a stout shoot, high resistance to black spot disease, and high productivity. This tree produces circular-shaped fruit which mature late in the season (i.e., from the middle to end of October), in the central part of the Kanto district of Japan. This fruit is large, with an average weight of 607 g. The white flesh is soft, crisp, and very juicy. This flesh has a moderate Brix (the pH of the juice being about 4.32) and no aromatic flavor: thus, it possesses excellent dessert quality.
