Abstract: An ultrafine bubble (UFB)-containing liquid manufacturing apparatus includes a liquid ejecting unit having a thermal energy generating element, a flow path for leading liquid to the thermal energy generating element, a driving unit configured to drive the thermal energy generating element, and an ejection opening. The UFB-containing liquid manufacturing apparatus also includes a collecting unit configured to collect liquid ejected from the ejection opening. The driving unit drives the thermal energy generating element to cause film boiling in liquid led to the flow path and causes liquid containing ultrafine bubbles generated by the film boiling to be ejected from the ejection opening.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an implant attachment stabilizer having, as an effective component, a methanebisphosphonic acid derivative represented by general formula (I) [where, in the formula, X, Y, m, n, , A, B, R1, R2, R3 and R4 are as defined in the Specification], or hydrate thereof.

Abstract: An interleukin-6 production inhibitor is provided containing a methanebisphosphonic acid derivative as an active component, which has inhibitory effects on interleukin-6 production and is useful in prevention and treatment of diseases due to abnormal production of the interleukin-6. This pharmaceutical is anticipated to have effects in prevention and treatment of diseases related to the interleukin-6, for example, thrombocytosis, inflammatory diseases, abnormal immune response diseases, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, hypercalcemia, multiple myeloma, cachexia, and nephritis.

Abstract: The present invention has the objective of offering drug for treating abnormalities in bone marrow which corrects the biological balance in the bone marrow, in particular which has the effect of suppressing inflammatory cell infiltration and suppressing cell growth-differentiation factor increase. The present invention relates to drug for treating abnormalities in bone marrow which has, as an effective component, a methanebisphosphonic acid derivative, ester thereof, medicinally acceptable salt thereof, or a hydrate of these. The methanebisphosphonic acid derivatives of the present invention show an outstanding bone marrow abnormality therapeutic effect, so efficacy can be expected in the prevention and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, multiple myeloma, osteomyelitis and other bone marrow abnormalities. Furthermore, application can also be expected in the prevention and treatment of hypoplastic anaemia, myelocytic leukaemia and other such haematopoietic disorders.
