Abstract: To suppress a curing agent paste stored in a sealed state in a packaging container from self-curing over a long period of time, provided are a dental alginate impression material as described below, and a curing agent paste to be used for the dental alginate impression material. The dental alginate impression material may includes: a base material paste including as main components: an alginic acid salt (A); and water (B); and a curing agent paste including as main components: a gelling reaction agent (C); a poorly water-soluble organic solvent (D); and a humectant (E).

Abstract: Provided is an aqueous composition containing alginic acid or a derivative thereof, the composition having a viscosity retained stably over a long period of time. The alginic acid-containing aqueous composition includes alginic acid or a derivative thereof (A), water (B), and a non-reducing sugar (C). Also provided are a dental alginate impression material and a base material for a dental alginate impression material each using the composition, in which the viscosity of the aqueous composition is stably maintained for a long period.

Abstract: [Problems] To provide an ejection container capable of falling a liquid in drops from the container body without relying on the sense of the fingertips and without affected by a change in the temperature. [Means for Solution] A knock-type ejection container 1 in which an ejection port 8 is provided at one end of a container body 2, a knock button 4 is provided at the other end thereof, a container chamber 22 is provided in the container body 2 to contain a liquid, and the liquid contained in the container chamber 22 is ejected from the ejection port 8 being interlocked to the operation of the knock button 4.

Abstract: [Problems] A dental adhesive composition containing an acid group-containing polymerizable monomer, that can be used as a dental adhesive material or a primer. The dental adhesive composition has excellent durability of adhesion exhibiting further improved adhering strength and durability of adhesion enabling teeth to be more strongly adhered to a composite resin or a prosthetic over extended periods of time. [Means for Solution] The dental adhesive composition contains a polymerizable monomer and ions of an element of the Group IV as basic components, at least 10 mass % of the polymerizable monomer being a polymerizable monomer having a hydrogenphosphate diester group, such as bis(2-methacryloyloxyethyl)hydrogenphosphate or 2-methacryloyloxyethylphenyl hydrogenphosphate, and the content of ions of the element of the Group IV such as titanium ions or zirconium ions in the composition being 0.1 to 1.

Abstract: A method for producing an oxazoline derivative from a non-protected sugar in a simple manner and a method for producing a glycoside by utilizing the product of the aforementioned method are disclosed. A sugar oxazoline derivative is synthesized in one step in an aqueous solution from a sugar having a free hemiacetal hydroxy group and an amide group by using a haloformamidinium derivative as a dehydration/condensation agent. A glycoside is produced by using the oxazolidine derivative as a sugar donor and also using a sugar dehydrogenase. The method can be applied to the production of a compound having a long sugar chain, and is therefore useful for a production of a physiologically active oligosaccharide, a carrier for a drug delivery system, a surfactant, a carbohydrate pharmaceutical, a glycopeptide, a glycoprotein, a carbohydrate polymer or the like.
