  • Publication number: 20250082771
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of pharmaceutical preparations, dosage regimens, and administration of an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). More specifically, the ADC is composed of an anti-cadherin-6 (CDH6) antibody connected via a linker to an anticancer agent, such as topoisomerase I inhibitor.

  • Publication number: 20250067664
    Abstract: There is provided a determination method comprising: a post-embedding measurement step for performing spectroscopic measurement on a substrate in which a pattern including a recess is formed, the recess having an embedding material embedded therein, and measuring an absorbance spectrum of the substrate having the embedding material embedded therein; and a determination step for determining an embedded state of the recess based on an integrated value of an intensity of the measured absorbance spectrum of the substrate at a plurality of wavenumbers.

  • Publication number: 20070269578
    Abstract: An additive for boiled rice that is used to avoid the lowering of efficiency at boiling for boiled rice or the like and to obtain a boiled rice of high quality presenting soft texture which is free from drying and sogginess resulting from moisture transfer during the storage thereof. There is provided an oil-in-water emulsification composition comprising a water soluble polysaccharide derived from soybean. High effect can be realized by the use of a water soluble soybean polysaccharide with a certain level or more of emulsifying capacity, and striking effect can be realized by the use of an emulsification composition comprising this polysaccharide with high emulsifying capacity combined with a polysaccharide having a certain level of viscosity even if its emulsifying capacity is poor.

  • Patent number: 7147885
    Abstract: The invention provides a native gellan gum-containing composition, and particularly based on the multifunctionality thereof, provides freeze/thaw-resistant gel compositions and dehydrated gels and jellies available therefrom, rice cake-like gels and rice cake substitutes, copy foods, cold retention compositions and cooling agents. The invention further provides the use of the above composition as additives for the expression of unique functions, for example a dispersion stabilizer, an additive for thickened compositions, a heat resistance-imparting agent, a syneresis inhibitor, a foam stabilizer, and a food palatability/body-improving agent.

  • Publication number: 20060165866
    Abstract: Legume-derived, and particularly soybean-derived, water-soluble polysaccharides are added to thickener-containing powder supplied with an instant food to prevent clumping of powder masses during reconstitution and for a more homogeneous reconstitution. Thus, the problem is solved which is encountered with soup powders such as a thickened soup powder and a curry-seasoned soup powder, which are supplied with instant foods such as instant noodles, containing thickeners such as starch or gum substances to impart thickness, whereby reconstitution in a stationary state produces swelling of the thickener and prevents adequate dispersion, resulting in scattering of powder masses in the soup and clumping at the bottom of the container and, thereby, impairing the taste.

  • Publication number: 20050112269
    Abstract: A cooked rice food product reduced in the degradation in taste, texture, and aspects of quality due to distribution in the refrigerated or frozen state and thawing at a low temperature or at room temperature as a method rendering it into a consumable state, by the addition of water-soluble soybean polysaccharides, a sugar alcohol, and amylase.

  • Patent number: 6685977
    Abstract: A method for production of frozen desserts that comprises adding water-soluble hemicellulose during the frozen dessert production process. It is possible to provide the functions of overrun properties and shape retention which are desired properties of stabilizing agents for frozen desserts, without giving the frozen desserts a heavy taste texture, while also imparting a soft, smooth taste texture and a light, fragile taste texture for ice desserts.
