Abstract: A functional film 1 according to an embodiment includes: a substrate (10) containing an acetyl cellulose resin; a primer layer (20) containing a filler (40) and disposed on the substrate (10); and a functional layer (30) containing the filler (40) and disposed on the primer layer (20). The substrate (10) has a permeation layer (12) formed by permeation of the resin contained in the primer layer (20) into part of the substrate (10). The permeation layer (12) has a thickness of 0.1 ?m or more and 3.5 ?m or less. The primer layer (20) has a thickness of 0.1 ?m or more and 1.0 ?m or less. The filler (40) is silica particles having an average particle size of 20 nm or more and 80 nm or less. The filler (40) in the primer layer (20) has a density of ? or more and ¾ or less of the density of the filler (40) in the functional layer (30). The primer layer (20) and the functional layer (30) each contain a resin. The resin component of the primer layer (20) is the same as the resin component of the functional layer 30.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a film preparation having both rapid solubility and flexibility at the same time. The film preparation is characterized by comprising: an active-ingredient-containing layer comprising an active ingredient, a water-soluble polymer selected from the group consisting of methyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, and a disintegrating agent; and an active-ingredient-free layer comprising methyl cellulose and/or hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose. It is further characterized in that the amount of the active ingredient is 0.1-75.0 mass % of a total mass of the film preparation and a total content of the active ingredient and the water-soluble polymer in the active-ingredient-containing layer is 15.0-95.0 mass % of a total mass of the active-ingredient-containing layer.

Abstract: An apparatus for supporting verification includes a detecting unit that detects description data of a false path from setting data for a system mode operation of a target circuit to be verified; an analyzing unit that analyzes the description data in the system mode operation and a test mode operation of the target circuit; a diversion determining unit that determines, based on a result of analysis by the analyzing unit, whether the description data is divertible to the test mode operation; and a generating unit that generates setting data for the test mode operation based on a result of determination by the determining unit.

Abstract: A design support apparatus includes a unit that inputs a user net list created by using hard macro cells excluding test circuits, and a unit that arranges hard macro cells using a frame into which hard macro cells, where timing-converged physical information includes test terminals, and test circuits are embedded as arrangement/wiring information. Moreover, includes a unit that arranges and wires the test circuits using the arrangement/wiring information of the test circuit embedded into the frame, a unit that recognizes arrangement/wiring information where the arrangement/wiring information of the test circuits is removed from arrangement/wiring information obtained by wiring, and a unit outputs a net list of a logic structure.

Abstract: A sweetener containing a Stevia-derived sweet substance is provided that, while containing cyclodextrin only in small amounts, can mask the bitter taste inherent in the Stevia-derived sweet substance. Cyclodextrin with a particle size of less than or equal to 30 ?m is blended into the Stevia-derived sweet substance at 0.5 to 20 mass % with respect to the mass of the Stevia-derived sweet substance.
