Abstract: A cosmetic product includes a mascara composition and a treatment device, whereby the mascara composition is applied to the eyelashes by softening the mascara composition via heat. The mascara composition is solid at room temperature, however is softened at elevated temperature, so it may be applied to the eyelashes. The treatment device includes an applicator for receiving, heating to soften, and applying the softened mascara composition to the eyelashes. Once the softened mascara composition is applied to the eyelashes, the mascara composition is quickly cooled and thus solidified by the atmosphere. The mascara composition thus applied to the eyelashes provides a firm film covering the eyelashes, which is not softened at body temperature, and thus provides enhanced wearability. A cap detachable to the applicator is provided with a loading mechanism for delivering pieces of the mascara composition one by one to the applicator.

Abstract: Disclosed is a releasably sealable bag for low temperature cooking comprising a film material, wherein the film material does not deform at temperatures of up to about 125° C., and wherein the bag is air and liquid impermeable when sealed. Also disclosed are such bags wherein at least a portion of the film material is comprised of a composite film material provided with a pressure sensitive adhesive protected from inadvertent adherence. Further disclosed are methods for food preparation and cooking using any of the embodiments of the bag of the present invention.

Abstract: Disclosed is a personal care composition comprising: (a) at least a solid hydrophobic component; and (b) no more than 25% by weight of the composition of a soap component, and the composition having: (i) a needle penetration, as measured according to the ASTM Test Method D5, of from about 1 to about 40 at 25° C.; (ii) a yield stress of at least about 1500 Pa at 25° C.; and (iii) a viscosity of between about 1 mPas and about 10,000,000 mPas at 100° C.

Abstract: Disclosed is a bag comprised of at least two superimposed sheets of film material having at least a portion of their superimposed edges being permanently sealed, wherein at least one of the sheets is a composite film material provided with a pressure sensitive adhesive protected from inadvertent adherence, the adhesive-bearing film sheet being releasably sealable to the other film sheet when pressed thereagainst to create a seal perimeter, wherein an interior of the bag is comprised within the seal perimeter.

Abstract: Cephalosporin compounds of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen atom or lower alkyl, and R.sup.2 is 1-alkanoyloxyalkyl or 1-alkoxycarbonyloxyalkyl, their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, methods for producing them, and pharmaceutical use thereof.The cephalosporin compounds and their salts are superior in absorption from digestive tract, and upon absorption from the digestive tract, show a wide range of antimicrobial activities in the body as hydrolysis products, and in addition, they have 10-400 times greater sweetness than sucrose. Thus, said compounds are useful as agents to be administered orally for the prophylaxis and treatment of bacterial infectious diseases.

Abstract: Cephalosporin compounds represented by the general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.5 independently represent a hydrogen atom or a protective group for an amino group; R.sup.2 represents an alkyl group or a cycloalkyl group; R.sup.3 represents a hydrogen atom, a lower alkenyl group, an alkanoyloxymethyl group, a carbamoyloxymethyl group, a heterocyclic thiomethyl group or a heterocyclic methyl group; R.sup.4 represents a hydrogen atom or an ester residue; and X represents CH or a nitrogen atom and pharmacologically acceptable addition salts thereof, intermediate compounds used in the synthesis process of these compounds, production methods of these compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds.
