Abstract: Provided are a charging amount regulating device and a vehicle with which it is possible to perform capacity regulation corresponding to a state of a battery assembly, without giving rise to an increase in cost. This charging amount regulating device performs capacity regulation between first and second battery cells constituting a battery assembly. The charging amount regulating device is provided with: a first discharging unit in which a first discharging resistor is connected in parallel with the first battery cell to discharge the first battery cell; a second discharging unit in which a second discharging resistor is connected in parallel with the second battery cell to discharge the second battery cell; and a third discharging unit in which the first and second discharging resistors are connected in series with the first battery cell to discharge the first battery cell.

Abstract: A battery circuit including: a cell group composed of a plurality of battery cells C connected in series; a resistor group composed of a plurality of resistors R connected in series; and a connection/disconnection section configured to connect the cell group to the resistor group disconnectably, in which the connection/disconnection section is configured to be capable of changing a number of the resistors R connected in series to any one target cell of the plurality of battery cells C.

Abstract: A novel lactase having a molecular weight of about 3.times.10.sup.5, an optimum pH value of about 6.0, an optimum temperature of about 60.degree. C. and at least 1 of the ratio of the activity for hydrolyzing lactose to the activity for hydrolyzing a synthetic substrate: o-nitrophenyl-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (Lact/ONPG ratio), which is produced by cultivating a microorganism of the genus Bacillus being capable of producing the enzyme, particularly Bacillus circulans LOB 377 (ATCC No. 31382) and isolating from the culture broth. This novel lactase is characteristic in the excellent thermostability and the high Lact/ONPG ratio and hence is useful for treating milk and milk products as well as for preventing diarrhea due to lactose intolerance, especially in babies and infants.
