Abstract: A catalyst for purification of exhaust gas in which Pd-based nanoparticles and ceria nanoparticles are supported on a composite metal oxide support containing alumina, ceria, and zirconia, wherein a molar ratio (Ce/Pd) of Ce and Pd supported on the support is 1 to 8, a proximity ? between Pd and Ce is 0.15 to 0.50, wherein the proximity ? is determined, based on Pd and Ce distribution maps in an element mapping image of energy dispersive X-ray analysis, by the following formula (1): ? = ? j = 0 N - 1 ? ? i = 0 M - 1 ? ( ( I ? ( i , j ) - I ave ) ? ( T ? ( i , j ) - T ave ) ) ? j = 0 N - 1 ? ? i = 0 M - 1 ? ( I ? ( i , j ) - I ave ) 2 - ? j = 0 N - 1 ? ? i = 0 M - 1 ? ( T ? ( i , j ) - T ave ) 2 , ( 1 ) a Pd dispersity after a heat-resistance test at 1050° C. for 25 hours is 0.8% or more.

Abstract: A liquid containing exosomes is filtered through a first filter that has a hole diameter that passes the exosomes and blocks cells, and is then stored in a first storage unit (rough filtration step). Next, pressure is applied to the inside of the first storage unit to pump the liquid to a pre-filtration chamber in a second filter that blocks the exosomes so that water in the liquid is filtered out into a post-filtration chamber. The exosome-containing liquid that was not filtered out is returned to the first storage unit, thereby increasing the exosome concentration in the liquid for extraction (concentration step). The exosome-containing concentrate in the first storage unit is then filtered through a third filter having a hole diameter that passes the exosomes and blocks bacteria, and is sent to a recovery unit (sterilization filtration step).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a cell mass structure, which produces a cell mass structure (adhesion pad 4) in which a plurality of cell aggregates 2 arranged inside a culture container 3 accommodating a culture liquid are fused to each other by being cultured. A plurality of pins 16 are erected inside the above-described culture container 3, the above-described cell aggregates 2 are accommodated by the plurality of pins 16 with parts between the plurality of pins 16 and pins 16 as accommodating portions H, and the cell aggregates 2 are cultured in a state of being accommodated in the plurality of adjacent accommodating portions H. It is possible to obtain a required shape and dimension, and the cell mass structure can be obtained without giving damage to cells further.
