Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing: a culture medium that is for adherent culturing of pluripotent stem cells exhibiting high growth ability and that does not contain serum or albumin; and a highly versatile method for adherent culturing of pluripotent stem cells using the culture medium. According to the present invention, by adding, to a culture medium, a hydrophilic polymer that is conventionally known to inhibit adhesion of cells to the surface of a cell culture base material, so that the adhesion of pluripotent stem cell to the surface of the cell culture base material is enhanced, high growth ability is imparted in adherent culturing of pluripotent stem cells without adding serum or albumin thereto. In addition, by adding an antioxidant substance along with such a polymer to a culture medium, very high growth ability is imparted in adherent culturing of pluripotent stem cells.

Abstract: Provided is a dietary fiber characterized in that bitterness and unpleasant aftertaste are restrained. The dietary fiber has terminal sugars and is characterized in that the ratio of aldoses relative to the total of the terminal sugars is 10% or less. Such a dietary fiber may be, for example, indigestible dextrin, polydextrose or the like. The dietary fiber may be used as a food additive (for example, a beverage additive).

Abstract: An autonomous driving device allows for autonomous driving of a vehicle. The autonomous driving device includes a monitoring unit and a switching unit.
