  • Patent number: 9346783
    Abstract: A method of producing an oxidized compound is disclosed. An electric potential is measured of an oxidation reaction solution for producing an oxidized compound by an oxidation reaction, and an end point is determined of the oxidation reaction on the basis of a predefined decrease of the electric potential. Preferably, after the electric potential of the oxidation reaction solution is reached to a highest electric potential, a point is determined where the amount of an electric potential dropped from the highest electric potential reaches the predefined amount of an electric potential as the end point of the oxidation reaction. The method also may introduce an oxidation reaction terminating agent to the oxidation reaction solution immediately after determining the end point of the oxidation reaction.

  • Patent number: 9320714
    Abstract: The present invention can retain the volume of a tablet large without increasing the thickness of the tablet or the like dimension and prevents a plurality of tablets from sticking to each other even if they are subjected to a film-coating or the like treatment, so as to improve the yield. The tablet is a tablet (1) longer in one direction when seen in plan. The tablet (1) has side edges (6) each of which extends in a longitudinal direction and is formed in the shape of a curve projecting outwardly in plan view. The curve has a radius of curvature (R1) set to at least 1.5 times a length (L) of the tablet. This makes a projected area of the tablet (1) in plan view at least 97% with respect to a projected area of a standard elliptical tablet having opposite end portions each of which is formed by a semi-circle having a diameter of a width (W) of the tablet.
