Abstract: Provided is a useful pharmaceutical composition that exhibits effects of improving sleep quality, relieving stress, and reducing fatigue feeling in a mammal (for example, a human) target by ingestion or administration of a composition containing at least one substance selected from the group consisting of citric acid and a salt thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for treating or preventing acidosis in chronic kidney disease with anemia, the pharmaceutical composition containing citric acid, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of citric acid, a hydrate thereof, or a mixture thereof, in which the pharmaceutical composition is in a form of a tablet.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for renal protection in chronic kidney disease, which contains a citric acid, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a citric acid, or a hydrate thereof; and a mixture of the citric acid, the pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the citric acid, and the hydrate thereof, and is a tablet.

Abstract: The present invention provides a food composition or pharmaceutical composition which includes, as an active ingredient, at least one substance selected from the group consisting of citric acid and a salt thereof, or sodium bicarbonate. Ingestion or administration of the food composition or pharmaceutical composition leads to an improvement in quality of sleep.

Abstract: The present invention provides a food composition or pharmaceutical composition which includes, as an active ingredient, citric acid or a salt thereof. Ingestion or administration of the food composition or pharmaceutical composition leads to suppression of alcohol sickness or hangover due to alcoholic beverage ingestion; suppression of an increase in blood alcohol level, an increase in blood acetaldehyde level, or an increase in blood acetic acid level due to alcoholic beverage ingestion; suppression of a decrease in blood pyruvic acid level due to alcoholic beverage ingestion; suppression of an abnormal blood lactic acid/pyruvic acid ratio due to alcoholic beverage ingestion; suppression of an increase in blood alcohol level immediately after alcohol ingestion; suppression of alcohol absorption; promotion of alcohol metabolism; or an increase in blood ornithine level, blood serotonin level, blood taurine level, blood cystine level, or blood nicotine amide level.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a food composition comprising an alkalinizing agent, particularly an alkali metal salt of citric acid. Ingestion of the food composition maintains kidney function.

Abstract: A dry room for gas substitution has a drying chamber to receive dry air from a dry air supply device. Gas is circulated between inside the drying chamber and the dry air supply device. An airtight container is accommodated in the drying chamber. A low dew point gas supply device coupled to the airtight container removes moisture and supplies low dew point gas to the airtight container via a filter that removes foreign matter. An inert gas purification device removes oxygen and supplies an inert gas to the airtight container. A gas exhaust passage exhausts gas in the airtight container to outside of the drying chamber. The low dew point gas supply device and the inert gas purification device are independently provided so that moisture removal via the low dew point gas supply device is adjusted independently of oxygen removal via the inert gas purification device.

Abstract: This filtration device 10 has a can body 20 having a reservoir 3 that connects to an opening 9 at the top, and a filtration unit 40 which is detachably installed in the reservoir. The filtration unit has a support plate 42, and filtration tubes 41 of bottomed cylindrical shape fastened to the support plate. The side wall 22 of the can body 20 has a protruding locking part 30 for installation of the filtration unit so that the filtration tubes are suspended from the support plate 42, with the openings 43 thereof facing upward. With the support plate 42 locked into the locking part 30, pressing members 70 for pressing the support plate 42 downward from the upper surface side in sections thereof lying towards the peripheral edge S in relation to the fastening locations of the filtration tubes 41 are deployed, making it possible for the support plate 42 to be fastened in clamped fashion by the locking part 30 and the pressing members 70.
