Abstract: The method for generating an index for managing the analytical accuracy of a sample analyzer includes a step of acquiring a determination result related to whether a sample is positive or negative from a plurality of sample analyzers, and a step of generating an index based on a ratio of a sample determined to be positive or negative by the plurality of sample analyzers from a plurality of determination results obtained from the plurality of sample analyzers.

Abstract: Disclosed is a measurement method for measuring a test substance contained in a biological sample based on a predetermined measurement principle, comprising acquiring a first measured value of the test substance using a first measurement reagent, and operating the first measured value to an arithmetic value when measured using a second measurement reagent different from the first measurement reagent, by using arithmetic information designed to make a first cut-off value for the measured value obtained using the first measurement reagent correspond to a second cut-off value for a measured value obtained using the second measurement reagent.

Abstract: An apparatus for generating monitoring data for managing the state of a sample analyzer is provided. The apparatus includes a processing unit for generating output data for associating and displaying, in a time series, a sample information region indicating information related to measurement data acquired by a sample analyzer from a sample, and an operational information region indicating information related to the operation of the sample analyzer.

Abstract: This invention offers the porous fiber in which the porous form of the fiber is with an excellent durability to heat and accordingly can afford the fiber products with a shape-retaining ability.Porous acrylonitrile fiber comprising the polymers containing not less than 95% by weight of acrylonitrile in a bonded form whereby the pores in the fiber constituting the porous structure are connected each other and are communicated with the fiber surface and, in addition, having a specific decreasing rate in the average pore diameter due to an introduction of a crosslinking structure thereinto.It is possible to offer a porous acrylonitrile fiber which has a porous structure wherein the micropores in the fiber are connected each other and are communicated with the fiber surface and also exhibits an excellent retaining ability of the shape of the fiber.

Abstract: A water-soluble lubricant for hot plastic working consists essentially of (a) 0.1-30% by weight of a resin powder having a particular particle size distribution, (b) 0.1-30% by weight in total of alkali metal salts of isophthalic acid and adipic acid, (c) 0.1-10% by weight of a water-soluble high polymer, and (d) the balance being water.
