  • Publication number: 20240076603
    Abstract: Provided is a cell culture system capable of detecting a proliferative property of cells in a culture vessel at a desired timing during a culture when the cells are statically cultured in the culture vessel formed of a gas permeable member. A cell culture system is a system for statically culturing cells with a culture vessel at least partially formed of a gas permeable member. The cell culture system includes an oxygen concentration sensor that measures an oxygen concentration in a vicinity of a culture surface inside the culture vessel, and a proliferation detection unit that detects a proliferative property of the cells based on an oxygen permeability of the gas permeable member, a measurement value of the oxygen concentration sensor, an oxygen concentration around the culture vessel, and an oxygen consumption per cell of the cells.

  • Patent number: 6589397
    Abstract: An electric energy conversion/storage system includes an ozone generating means (12) for producing an ozonized gas from a raw material gas containing oxygen by utilizing electric energy, an ozone adsorbing/desorbing means (15) for adsorbing ozone contained in the ozonized gas and desorbing ozone from the adsorbed state, a gas circulation system for causing the raw material gas and the ozonized gas to flow through the ozone generating means (12) and the ozone absorbing/desorbing means (15) while feeding back to the ozone generating means (12) a residual part of the oxygen gas remaining after adsorption of ozone, a coolant supply means (16) for cooling the ozone adsorbing/desorbing means (15), and an ozone discharging means (29, 30) for taking out an ozone containing gas which contains ozone molecules from the ozone adsorbing/desorbing means (15) to thereby supply the ozone containing gas to an ozone consumer (23).

  • Patent number: 6348479
    Abstract: This invention provides a milk lotion, cream or the like which does not undergo oil-water phase separation but remains stable for a long time and, in addition, has a good skin feel with good spreadability. It is a water-in-oil emulsifier composition comprising liquid oil basis, liquid oil component gelling agent, water and, as a water-in-oil type surfactant, polyglycerin fatty acid ester and/or polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil.
