Abstract: A gastropod repellent film of the present invention includes at least an inorganic filler layer containing an inorganic filler and a thermoplastic resin. The inorganic filler layer is an outermost layer. The inorganic filler includes calcium carbonate particles. The inorganic filler has a percentage content of greater than 50.0% by mass in the gastropod repellent film. The gastropod repellent film has a density of at least 1.05 g/cm3 and no greater than 1.25 g/cm3. A plant cultivation method of the present invention uses the gastropod repellent film.

Abstract: A laminate of the present invention is a laminate with a sheet shape for vacuum forming, pressure forming, or warm forming that includes an inner layer and paired outer layers layered on the respective opposite sides of the inner layer. The inner layer contains an inorganic filler and a thermoplastic resin. The outer layers contains a thermoplastic resin. The inorganic filler contains calcium carbonate particles. The inorganic filler has a percentage content of greater than 50.0% by mass in the laminate. The outer layers each have a thickness at a ratio to the total thickness of the laminate of at least 2.0% and no greater than 20.0%. The total thickness of the laminate is at least 300 ?m and no greater than 450 ?m. The maximum particle diameter of the calcium carbonate particles is no greater than 20 ?m.

Abstract: Upon using a stethoscope, there is a problem that it had been needed to interrupt work and mount the stethoscope using both hands, resulting in poor work efficiency. Also, when it is needed to repeatedly mount and unmount the stethoscope for such as a group examination, for example, it had been necessary to continuously carry out an operation of expanding ear tubes many times, which is complicated. Thus the present invention provides an attachment for a stethoscope comprising a mounting part which can be mounted to both of ear tubes, and a manipulating part for manipulating the mounting part, the manipulating part and the mounting part being connected through a rotatable fulcrum, so that the mounting part may be opened and closed by opening and closing operation of the manipulating part.
