  • Patent number: 7612115
    Abstract: The present invention has an object to provide an antibacterial aqueous pharmaceutical composition and an aqueous pharmaceutical composition which have a sufficiently low gelation temperature even when new quinolone antibacterial agents such as ofloxacin as the active ingredient and can be retained at the administration site for a long time by virtue of rapid viscosity increase after administration in spite of their being liquid at administration and thereby attain high availability of pharmaceutical agent. The present invention relates to an antibacterial aqueous pharmaceutical composition which comprises: 2.8 to 4 w/v % of methylcellulose, the 2 w/v % aqueous solution of which has a viscosity of 12 mPa·s or below at 20° C.; 1.5 to 2.3 w/v % of citric acid; 2 to 4 w/v % of polyethylene glycol; and 0.1 to 0.5 w/v % of ofloxacin.

  • Publication number: 20090135011
    Abstract: An object is to provide a control apparatus of a showcase in which appropriate illumination having a high presentation effect can be realized by an LED illumination apparatus having a high durability against turning ON/OFF and capable of securing a predetermined illumination intensity even under an environment at a low temperature. The control apparatus controls a plurality of showcases so that display chambers where commodities are displayed are illuminated with LED illumination apparatuses, and includes a person detecting sensor provided in a showcase disposed in such a position that the approaching of any person can first be detected among the plurality of arranged showcases, so that the approaching of the person is detected. When the person detecting sensor detects the approaching of the person, the illumination intensities of all the LED illumination apparatuses of the plurality of showcases are increased.
