Abstract: A light conversion member includes a light conversion film, a first gas barrier, and a first base material. The light conversion film converts color of light from a specific color. The first gas barrier is located on a side of the light conversion film where the light to be converted is incident. The first gas barrier includes one or more gas barrier layers that prevent moisture and gas from entering the light conversion film. The first base material is located on an opposite side of the first gas barrier from a face on which the light conversion film is located. The first base material transmits the light and holds the light conversion film and the first gas barrier. For a light of the specific color, a light transmittance of the first base material combined with the first gas barrier is higher than a light transmittance of the first base material alone.

Abstract: A fluid application system includes: an application apparatus that discharges a fluid to a workpiece; a movement apparatus that moves the application apparatus and the workpiece; and a control apparatus. At the time of adjusting the output of a power source to thereby vary the discharge amount of the fluid from the nozzle by a target variation amount F1, the control apparatus sets the output of the power source to a value beyond a theoretical output N1 of the power source obtained from the target variation amount F1 of the discharge amount, and then sets the output of the power source to the theoretical output N1 such that the change amount of the internal pressure of the nozzle is coincident with an amount P1 by which the internal pressure of the nozzle needs to change, the amount P1 being obtained from the target variation amount F1 of the discharge amount.

This microRNA containing a base sequence (SEQ ID NO: 1) obtained by varying a predetermined region of the base sequence of miR-29b is able to exhibit a particularly outstanding anti-tumor effect.

Abstract: A superconducting wire joining method joins superconducting wires each having a superconducting layer and a stabilizing layer that contacts with the superconducting layer to cover the superconducting layer. The superconducting wire joining method includes overlapping the superconducting wires such that the stabilizing layers of the superconducting wires face each other, and performing ultrasonic joining relative to overlapped portions of the superconducting wires. The overlapping of the superconducting wires and the performing of the ultrasonic joining are performed at room temperature.

The crankcase is configured by connecting an upper crankcase on a mating surface of a lower crankcase, and has an oil pan. The oil pump and the relief valve are installed in the lower crankcase. The oil pump sucks oil in the oil pan through a suction passage, and discharges the oil into a discharge passage.

These passages are formed in the lower crankcase. A relief valve housing section housing the relief valve, and the surplus passage allowing the relief valve housing section and the suction passage to communicate with each other, are provided to communicate with the mating surface.

Abstract: A method for forming a sealing film, in which a buffer layer and a barrier layer whose density is higher than that of the buffer layer are alternately formed on a substrate, includes forming a first buffer layer on a surface of the substrate, forming a first barrier layer on a surface of the first buffer layer, and forming a second buffer layer on a surface of the first barrier layer. A ratio of a thickness of a portion of the first buffer layer in a thickness direction of the substrate relative to a thickness of a portion of the first buffer layer in an inclined direction that is inclined with respect to the thickness direction is closer to 1 than a ratio of a thickness of a portion of the second buffer layer in the thickness direction relative to a thickness of a portion of the second buffer layer in the inclined direction.
