Abstract: A multilayer structured spun yarn 20 includes core component fibers 21 and sheath component fibers 24, wherein the sheath component fibers 24 include inner layer fibers 22 and outer layer fibers 23. The inner layer fibers 22 of the sheath component fibers 24 are untwisted, and entirely bundled by the outer layer fibers 23 wound therearound in one direction. The core component fibers 21 are an elastic multifilament yarn. The sheath component fibers 24 are blended fibers containing animal hair fibers and short fibers other than animal hair fibers, and a blending proportion of the animal hair fibers is 5 to 50 mass % with respect to 100 mass % of the multilayer structured spun yarn 20.

Abstract: A orally disintegrating tablet is obtained by tableting fine granules showing controlled release of lansoprazole and an additive, which is capable of suppressing breakage of the fine granules during tableting, and can control the release of lansoprazole for a long time, and can maintain a therapeutically effective concentration for a prolonged time, and shows superior disintegration property in the oral cavity.

Abstract: A belt-like material-feeding apparatus for continuously feeding a belt-like material to a treating unit, comprises a splicing unit which splices a second belt-like material to a first belt-like material being fed to the treating unit to thereby switch the belt-like material being fed to the treating unit from the first belt-like material into the second belt-like material, an accumulating unit which is arranged between the splicing unit and the treating unit and is capable of temporarily accumulating the belt-like material, and a control unit which, prior to the splicing operation of the splicing unit, increases the amount of accumulation of the belt-like material to be larger than the amount of accumulation of the belt-like material during the steady operation and, during the splicing operation, releases the belt-like material from the accumulating unit to decrease the amount of accumulation of the belt-like material.

Abstract: A belt-like material-feeding apparatus for continuously feeding a belt-like material to an intermittently-treating unit comprises a splicing unit which splices a second belt-like material to a first belt-like material being fed to the intermittently-treating unit to thereby switch the belt-like material being fed to the intermittently-treating unit from the first belt-like material into the second belt-like material, and a control unit for controlling the splicing timing of the splicing unit based upon the treating timing of the intermittently-treating unit. When it is judged that a splicing region formed between the first belt-like material and the second belt-like material by the splicing operation of the splicing unit, is going to be treated by the intermittently-treating unit, the control unit controls the splicing unit so as to retard the splicing operation.

Abstract: An apparatus 100 of the present invention for manufacturing an absorbent article which includes a liquid-permeable topsheet, a liquid-impermeable backsheet and an absorber provided between the topsheet and the backsheet, is provided with a lower press roller 110B which presses outer edge areas 81 which correspond to outer edges of the extended portions 50 of a continuous body constituted by the plurality of continuous sheets. The lower press roller 110B is provided with a plurality of rear end protrusions 115 which protrude outward in a radial direction of the roller and press rear end inclined areas 81S which correspond to the outside-to-inside inclined areas of the outer edge areas 81. An extending direction LD2 of the rear end protrusions 115 differ from an extending direction of a rear end outline 87 extending along the shapes of rear end inclined portions 50B in the rear end inclined areas 81S.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for improving absorbability of the active ingredient of an enteric polymer coated preparation, which includes using an organic acid.
