A remelting temperature of the crystallized glass frit (A) is higher than a crystallization temperature thereof which is higher than a glass transition temperature thereof. The method includes: applying the glass paste on at least one of the first and second bodies, bonding the first and second bodies by interposing the glass paste therebetween, heating the bonded first and second bodies to a temperature that is not lower than the crystallization temperature and lower than the remelting temperature of the crystallized glass frit (A), and obtaining the bonded body by cooling the bonded first and second bodies to a temperature that is not higher than the glass transition temperature of the crystallized glass frit.

The glass frit (B) has a remelting temperature of 320 to 360° C., wherein the remelting temperature is indicated by a peak top of at least one endothermic peak having an endotherm of 20 J/g or more in a DSC curve as measured by a differential scanning calorimeter.

Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting occult blood and other analytes in the water of a toilet bowl release a dye reagent into the water which produces an observable signal in the presence of the blood or other selected analytes. The dye reagent is preferably dispersed as a liquid, powder, gel, or other form which rapidly mixes and combines with the sample. Additionally, the water of a toilet bowl will have a reduced impurity content such as iron and a surfactant is used to help liberate the analyte from a stool sample. Usually, automatic mechanical or electromechanical dispensing systems are used to release the dye reagent and surfactant into the water.
