Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a compression-molded preparation which has an excellent disintegration property and can be easily produced despite the use of granules coated with a polymer coating film having a function such as masking of an unpleasant taste. A compression-molded preparation achieving the above object is characterized by including granules obtained by coating a polymer-coated, granulated substance, in which a granulated substance containing a drug is coated with a polymer coating film, with one kind or two or more kinds of additives selected from the group consisting of a metal stearate, stearic acid, a sucrose fatty acid ester, talc, and silicic acid.

Abstract: A method and a system accomplish inspection of a mark in a frame of a film print. The system can include a frame imager which automatically selects at least one frame in the film print having an FMS mark and automatically captures an image of the frame. The image can be captured prior to, or subsequent to, the print being developed. The system also can include a marker which marks the frame with the mark. Further, the system can include a processor which automatically extracts the mark from the captured image and automatically compares the mark on the frame to a reference mark. The captured image can be stored to a database.

Abstract: A system and method for object oriented fingerprinting of digital videos and motion pictures are provided. The system and method enables a user to embed various ‘natural objects’ as watermarks that match well with a particular scene in a movie or to modify existing objects in the scene during a digital editing stage. The system and method provides for determining a number of unique copies of the motion picture needed, determining a number of watermarks and variations of the watermarks based on the number of unique copies, selecting at least one object occurring in at least one scene of the motion picture equal to the determined number of watermarks, creating the determined number of variations for the object, and creating a unique combination of the created variations of the object for each copy. Each unique combination is encoded into a value for identifying each of the plurality of copies.

Abstract: An anti-inflammatory drug comprising as the effective component at least one compound selected from the group consisting of colominic acid, partial hydrolysis products of colominic acid and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, thereof. The drug is used as a drug for renal diseases, a drug for hepatitis, an immunomodulator and a drug for inhibiting the chemotaxis of neutrophil.
