Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for efficiently separating insoluble bodies of a recombinant protein from a recombinant cell expressing a target recombinant protein as insoluble bodies in the cell. The present invention provides a method for producing a recombinant protein aggregate by separating insoluble bodies of a recombinant protein from a recombinant cell expressing the recombinant protein as insoluble bodies in the cell, including disrupting the recombinant cell, aggregating the insoluble bodies of the recombinant protein, and separating the resulting aggregate.

Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus comprising a memory for storing one or more programs and at least one processor that executes the programs. The information processing apparatus functions to set a page count to be printed to one sheet and determines whether an object has moved in a first direction or a second direction that is a reverse direction to the first direction. If the object has moved in the first direction, reset the page count to increase the set page count, and if the object has moved in the second direction, reset the set page count to decrease the set page count. The information processing apparatus determines whether a conflict relationship is occurring between the reset page count and another print setting, and changes the another print setting if the conflict relationship is occurring.
