Abstract: In a helical antenna for use in a portable communication terminal containing a radio unit which transmits and receives a radio signal, an antenna element is connectable to the radio unit, and contains a bottom portion formed into a helical portion and a top portion formed into a linear portion, the linear portion being positioned along a screw axis of the helical portion. A cap houses the antenna element if the cap covers the antenna element from a top end of the antenna element. A position portion is provided in the cap and positions the linear portion of the antenna element along the screw axis of the helical portion. By virtue of this structure, an appropriate distance can be reliably secured between the antenna element and a human body, thereby maintaining a good characteristic of the antenna.

Abstract: A portable radio communication device capable of eliminating the deterioration of the radiation efficiency due to the occurrence of the dual resonance on the antenna, without reducing the bandwidth. A radio communication device, comprises: a device body made of a conductor body, containing at least one of a radio transmitter and a radio receiver; and an antenna, mounted on the device body, formed by first and second strip-like conductor elements which are connected together at a feeding point connected with said at least one of the radio transmitter and the radio receiver, the first and second strip-like conductor elements having an identical electrical length with each other.

Abstract: Production of L-lysine is carried out by a process which involves culturing a mutant microorganism having increased L-lysine productivity belonging to the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium and having a resistance to at least one of purine analog and pyrimidine analog.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing L-lysine by culturing a microorganism obtained by protoplast fusion and having an ability to produce L-lysine in a nutrient medium, forming and accumulating L-lysine in the resulting culture liquor, and recovering the L-lysine therefrom. Also, there are disclosed a number of microorganisms for producing L-lysine which are obtained by protoplast fusion.

Abstract: L-glutamic acid is produced by culturing a mutant microorganism belonging to the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium which mutant is temperature-sensitive remediable with an unsaturated higher fatty acid. L-glutamic acid is recovered from the culture liquor.
