Abstract: Raman spectra of protein solutions having a plurality of concentrations are acquired. An index, which changes according to interaction between protein molecules, is calculated based on a predetermined peak included in the Raman spectra. A threshold of concentration at which protein can be denatured is specified based on change in the index against change in concentration. The threshold is compared with a concentration of the protein solution required as medicine such as antibody drug, and whether the protein solution is suitable as medicine or not is determined. When the concentration required as medicine is equal to or higher than the threshold, for example, it is judged that the protein solution is not suitable as medicine. When the protein solution is not suitable as medicine, analysis can be repeated by changing a condition of the protein solution.

Abstract: An induction heat cooking device is provided that finishes preheating in a short time and maintains the temperature obtained at the finish of the preheating. When a preheating heating mode is selected as an operation mode, a control unit (8) arranged in the induction heat cooking device starts operation in a preheating mode in which a cooking container is heated with a first heating output. When an increment of an output value of an infrared sensor exceeds a first predetermined increment since the heating starts with the first heating output, the control unit causes a notification unit to notify a user that the preheating is finished, and the operation mode is changed to a waiting mode for performing heating with a second heating output that is lower than the first heating output. Further, when the user sets a heating power by means of a heating power setting unit in the preheating mode, the control unit prohibits changing to the heating power set by the user.
