Abstract: [OBJECT] The purpose of this invention is to provide a muscle-increasing ingredient with excellent safety. [MEANS FOR SOLUTION] The problem can be solved by a composition for increasing muscle, comprising ?-alanine or a salt thereof as an active ingredient of the present invention of the present invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preventing transmission of influenza, wherein said method comprises administering an effective amount of a compound to a patient having an influenza virus infection, herein referred to as “index patient”, wherein the compound has one of the formulae (I) and (II), or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt. The compound to be used in the present invention reduces infectivity of the influenza virus of the index patient, and therefore, reduces the risk of the index patient to trigger an influenza epidemic or an influenza pandemic as compared to a control patient.

Abstract: A gap is maintained between: an outer surface of a shaft which is inserted in and removed from a hole of a box body and serves as a rotation shaft; and a hole wall, while axial misalignment of the shaft in the hole is inhibited. In a double opening storage device, a lid has two shafts that extend so as to advance and retract along two rotation shafts. Each shaft has a cut portion which is obtained by a part of a circumferential portion of a leading end portion being cut out and disposed in a lower portion at lid closed position. The box body has two holes, formed in a side wall, corresponding to the two shafts of the lid, and has a projection that projects upward from a lower surface of the hole wall of each hole, and that moves the shaft upward when the lid is opened.

Abstract: A double opening storage device includes two opening and closing mechanisms that open and close a lid leftward and rightward relative to a box body. Each opening and closing mechanism include: a shaft member disposed so as to be coaxial with a rotation shaft; a support member that supports the shaft member so as to rotate the shaft member; an urging member that generates urging force for rotating the shaft member relative to the support member in an opening direction; and a locking device that holds the lid in a closed state against the urging force, and cancels, by an opening operation, holding of the lid. The shaft member and the support member include opposing surfaces, respectively, which are spaced from each other in the lid closed state, and projections, respectively, which interfere with each other while the lid is shifting from the closed state to a predetermined opened state.

Abstract: A resin plating method for a resin molding is disclosed which involves a simple process as an additional process in resin plating to suppress the occurrence of such an undesirable phenomenon as a metal plating film peeling together with a thin resin film due to floating of a thin surface film of the resin molding. A specific portion of the resin molding which portion is apt to undergo peeling of a thin surface resin film is heat-treated at a high temperature and thereafter resin plating is performed.

Abstract: The occurrence of an undesirable phenomenon of a surface resin in a resin molding caused for example by peeling of a thin surface film of the resin molding is suppressed by subjecting the resin molding to a simple additional process. A resin molding heat-treating apparatus according to the present invention is for heat-treating partially at a high temperature a parting line portion W1 of a resin molding W or a specific portion of the resin molding W which portion is apt to undergo peeling of a thin surface resin film, the apparatus comprising a heating section 2 of a shape conforming to a contour line of a portion to be heated of the resin molding W and a fixing jig 4 for fixing the resin molding W removably, the portion to be heated of the resin molding W being heat-treated at a high temperature while being approximated to the heating section 2.
