Abstract: Agents which contain at least one D-amino acid selected from the group consisting of D-asparagine, D-valine, D-allo-threonine, D-lysine, D-glutamine, D-histidine, D-leucine, D-phenylalanine, D-serine, D-tryptophan, and D-tyrosine are useful as whitening agents and are effective in preventing and inhibiting melanin pigmentation such as pigmented spot, freckles, and somberness.

Abstract: Agents which contain at least one D-amino acid selected from the group consisting of D-arginine, D-histidine, D-leucine, D-tyrosine, D-valine, D-allo-threonine, D-lysine, D-tryptophan, D-allo-isoleucine, D-asparagine, D-phenylalanine, and D-glutamine as an active ingredient are effective for improving the function of the horny layer.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal panel, a transparent protective member, and a transparent adhesive material. The liquid crystal panel is an in-plane switching liquid crystal panel including a TFT substrate, a counter substrate sandwiching a liquid crystal layer between the counter substrate and the TFT substrate, and a transparent conductive film being provided on a surface opposite to the liquid crystal layer of the counter substrate, a side of the transparent conductive film being a side of a display surface. The transparent protective member covers a surface on the side of the display surface of the liquid crystal panel. The transparent adhesive material attaches the transparent protective member on the surface on the side of the display surface. The transparent conductive film has a film thickness ranging from 120 nm to 160 nm.
