Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a humanized or mouse-human chimeric anti-podoplanin antibody or an antibody fragment containing the antigen-binding region thereof, and the object is achieved by providing an isolated humanized or mouse-human chimeric anti-podoplanin antibody which comprises a predetermined amino acid sequence, or an antibody fragment containing the antigen-binding region thereof.

Abstract: A propolis food product that contains propolis active ingredients with improved bio-absorbability and is readily ingested. The propolis food products containing propolis extracts are gelled by gelatinizers. The gelantinizers are materials such as shiitake extracts, curdlan, agarics extracts and further including sulfated saccharides, .beta.-glucans, carrageenan, locust bean gum, xanthan gum, or agar. The propolis food products are prepared by water or alcohol extraction. Furthermore, the steps involve preparing a gelantinizer solution by adding a gelatinizer to water and adding propolis extracts thereto so that the amount of the propolis extracts in the food product is from 2 to 25 w/w %, a gel composition is then formed by admixing the solution in order to uniformly disperse the propolis extracts.
