Abstract: The diatheses of animals vary depending on genetic backgrounds of the animals, and the microbial structure of an enterobacterial flora inherent in a host and the behavior of the concentration of a biological molecule sometimes vary depending on the diathesis of the host. In this case, it is needed to administer a proper probiotic. Provided is a microbial preparation for controlling the proportion of the population of bacteria belonging to the division Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes or Proteobacteria or the proportion of the population of bacteria belonging to the genus Clostridium, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium or Bacteroidetes in the enterobacterial florae in an animal body, and for controlling the concentration of a functional molecule contained in a living body, said microbial preparation containing a microorganism P01931 (International Accession No. BP-1931) MK-01A (International Accession No. BP-02066) or MK-03A (International Accession No. BP-02067) or a component of the microorganism.

Abstract: Compositions consisting of bioactive molecules derived from the microbiota of a mammal are provided herein. When administered orally with a colonic delivery system, the compositions are useful for the prophylaxis and treatment of diseases, in particular inflammatory, autoimmune and infectious diseases. The compositions comprise combinations of small molecules and bacterial antigens formulated in colonic delivery systems. Use of the compositions results in any or all of: induction of immune tolerance; strengthening of the gut mucosal barrier integrity; reduction of inflammation; and amelioration of a disease state caused by inflammation, an autoimmune reaction or an infectious agent.

Abstract: In a wireless communication system including a slave device, and a master device wirelessly connected to the slave device, the slave device includes a wireless communicator that performs wireless communication with the master device, a power supply unit that supplies power to each unit of the slave device, an interrupt detector that detects various interrupts, and a controller that controls the entire slave device, the interrupt detector supplies the power from the power supply unit to each unit of the slave device when detecting a timer interrupt occurring at predetermined intervals, and the controller performs control to perform an initialization process of the wireless communicator when the power is supplied from the power supply unit to each unit of the slave device, and perform an entire initialization process of the slave device when a capture signal is received via the wireless communicator.

Abstract: A quantitative, high-sensitivity examination of defects in a transparent product is realized, using a low-cost and space-saving optical dimension measuring apparatus to carry out measurement in a non-contact manner to avoid damaging the object of inspection and to avoid sensory examination. A transparent body to be examined is disposed between a light emitting unit and a light-receiving unit arranged opposite each other. A change in an optical path caused by a defect in the transparent body is detected based on a change in a light ray emitted from the light emitting unit and being incident on the light-receiving unit after passing through the transparent body and a light-blocking object disposed between the transparent body and the light-receiving unit.
