The drugs are oral drugs, each comprising one or more compounds selected from diosgenin, a diosgenin derivative and a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, the one or more compounds being suspended in an edible oil.

Abstract: A joint nozzle that delivers a developer, a rinsing liquid and nitrogen gas is disposed adjacent the spin center of a substrate in plan view. A controller operates electromagnetic switch valves to continue supply of the developer, while spinning the substrate, in a developing process, and to start supply of the rinsing liquid in a rinsing process, immediately after the supply of the developer ends, thereby achieving a shortened period of the developing process. A switching is made to a drying process by starting supply of the nitrogen gas immediately after completion of the rinsing process. Thus, even if the substrate has a large angle of contact, formation of droplets of the rinsing liquid is inhibited to prevent post-develop defects.

Abstract: Providing a remote control technique capable of realizing the achievement of constraints and the certain following of a target value even with a network in which delay, loss, distortion, or the like may occur. In a remote control system, an area setting unit of a client-side control unit sets at least two areas representative of a group of states of an target object, which changes over time by feedback control. A state-evaluation information sending unit sends, to the host-side control unit, state evaluation information obtained by evaluating the state of the target object based on the area set by the area setting unit. A target value setting unit of the host-side control unit sets a target value such that the state of the target object changes in the area set by the area setting units. Moreover, a target value updating unit updates the target value based on the state evaluation information received from the client-side control unit.

Abstract: After an exposure process in an exposure part, the exposure part transmits an exposure completion signal to a main controller. At time (t12) which is a predetermined time interval (T12) later than an exposure completion time (t11), the main controller transmits a substrate transport signal to a heating part, to cause the transport of a substrate from a temporary substrate rest part to a heating plate and the start of a heating process by the heating plate. This provides substantially the same length of the time interval between the completion of the exposure process and the start of the heating process in the heating part, if there are variations in the time at which each substrate is placed on the temporary substrate rest part of the heating part.

Abstract: An image-generating system for generating data of an image on the basis of data of a photographic image obtained by capturing an image of an object. The image-generating system includes a color sample to be arranged in the proximity of an object, an illumination unit, an image pick-up unit, a color sample specifying unit and an image processing unit. The illumination unit can illuminate the object and the color sample with light lower in light quantity than ordinary light. The image pick-up unit obtains a photographic image by capturing an image of the object together with the color sample illuminated by the illumination unit. The color sample specifying unit specifies the color sample in the photographic image. The image processing unit converts colors of the object in the photographic image, taking the color sample specified by the color sample specifying unit as a reference.

Abstract: A substrate treating apparatus is provided for eliminating wasteful consumption of a treating solution in a treating mode in which the treating solution is delivered in a strip form to a substrate from a treating solution delivery nozzle sweeping over the substrate. In a first aspect of the invention, collecting vessels are arranged around a developing cup surrounding a wafer supported by a wafer holder. The collecting vessels collect part of a developer delivered from a discharge opening of a developer delivery nozzle outwardly of a surface of the wafer. In a second aspect of the invention, collecting vessels are arranged below a developer delivery nozzle, with collecting openings of the collecting vessels opposed to a discharge opening or openings of the delivery nozzle. The collecting vessels are moved longitudinally of the discharge openings according to a position of the developer delivery nozzle relative to the wafer.

Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus comprises a plurality of second coating processing units responsible for coating, a gas supply mechanism for supplying clean air through a supply path, and a cell controller. Each of the second coating processing units is provided with a control plate and an exhaust fun unit. The opening of the supply path is controlled by adjusting the angle of rotation of the control plate. The cell controller adjusts the angle of rotation of each control plate based on a setting previously determined to independently control the amount of air supply to the second coating processing units. Thus the pressures within the second coating processing units are controlled such that the second coating processing units provide substantially the same processing result. As a result, the difference among the plurality of second coating processing units can be suppressed.
