Abstract: A semiconductor device includes: an inner frame that surrounds an outer circumference of a semiconductor chip; and an outer frame that surrounds an outer circumference of the inner frame; wherein the outer frame is configured with an exterior wall that surrounds the outer circumference of the inner frame, and a fibrous reinforcing member that is wound on an outer circumference of the exterior wall. This prevents the broken pieces of a component that constitutes the semiconductor device from being scattered outside the semiconductor device, thereby not only to achieve improvement in the reliability of the entire system, but also to achieve downsizing of the semiconductor device.

Abstract: An electrode structure includes: a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged separately from each other; and a plurality of dielectric layers laminated in a first direction with respect to the plurality of pixel electrodes, in which the plurality of dielectric layers includes: a first dielectric layer that spreads over the plurality of pixel electrodes in a direction intersecting with the first direction; and a second dielectric layer that includes dielectric material having a refractive index higher than that of the first dielectric layer, sandwiches the first dielectric layer together with the plurality of pixel electrodes, and has a slit at a position overlapping space between pixel electrodes adjacent when viewed from the first direction.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a therapeutic agent that is more efficacious for treating nerve disorders, said therapeutic agent comprising a culture supernatant of mesenchymal stem cells. The present invention provides a therapeutic agent for nerve disorders, said therapeutic agent comprising a culture supernatant of mesenchymal stem cells and/or cells capable of differentiating into mesenchymal stem cells and being to be used together with stimulation of patient's nerves, wherein the stimulation is preferentially provided to one or more sites selected from the group consisting of a site of nerve damage, an area surrounding a site of nerve damage, and a site compensating for the function of a site of nerve damage.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a therapeutic agent containing mesenchymal stem cells, which is more effective for the treatment of a nerve damage. The present invention provides a therapeutic agent for a nerve damage. The therapeutic agent is a preparation for intravenous administration which contains mesenchymal stem cells and/or cells capable of being differentiated into mesenchymal stem cells, and is used in combination with the application of a stimulus to nerves in a patient, in which the application of a stimulus is carried out during a time period between a time point at which the administration of the therapeutic agent is not carried out yet and a time point at which 6 hours has passed after the administration of the therapeutic agent.

Abstract: A culturing method according to the present invention including a step of injecting cells extracted from a human body and a culture medium into a culture container, (2) a step of culturing cells while performing air ventilation and exchange of the culture medium in the culture container in which the culture medium and the cells are put, (3) a step of cleaning cultured cells which are cultured in the culture container and then withdrawing the cleaned cells from the culture container into a cell withdrawing vessel while some of the cleaned cells are left in the culture container, (4) a step of injecting a culture medium to the cultured cells left in the culture container in the step (3), and (5) a step of repetitively executing the step (2) and the step (3)

Abstract: The following are provided: a method for manufacturing artificial cartilages characterized in that undifferentiated mesenchymal cells are cultured in a cartilage differentiation inducing medium, and the cells are irradiated with ultrasound, as a method in which chondrocytes can be obtained in a short time in an amount sufficient for performing the treatment of cartilage disorder with surgical operation when a conservative therapy such as limitation of movement exhibits no effect, among various treatments of cartilage disorder; an artificial cartilage that has been produced by the method; and an apparatus for manufacturing artificial cartilages comprising a culture vessel containing cultured undifferentiated mesenchymal cells, an ultrasound transducer for applying ultrasound to the vessel, a control means for controlling the ultrasound, and a holding water-tank for installing the ultrasound transducer and the culture vessel in the holding water-tank in such a state that they are in contact with each other.

Abstract: To provide a general-purpose saw blade which will saw different materials cost effectively, the saw blade includes a plurality of sets of teeth, each set including saw tooth having a large relief angle and a small tooth angle which provide fast cutting speeds, and with saw tooth having a small relief angle and a large tooth angle which provide the resistance to chipping.

Abstract: A new blade, and a method of cutting therewith, having repeating sets of teeth, each set having sub-sets which differ from each other in at least one cutting characteristic including straight teeth, primary cutting teeth which are left-sided and right-sided and secondary cutting teeth which are left-sided and right-sided, said secondary cutting teeth having a large relief angle.
