  • Patent number: 10702472
    Abstract: A production method of an edible sustained-release functional material that has a high effect of preventing oozing of oil at the time of production, and that can inexpensively perform production, even by using fat and oil other than fish oil and continuously performing pulverization at ordinary temperature; and the edible sustained-release functional material. An edible sustained-release functional material is produced by: preparing an emulsified raw material by emulsifying fat and oil containing a hydrophobic functional ingredient; stirring and mixing the emulsified raw material, gelatin, transglutaminase, and dextrin having a DE value of 8 to 21; then forming a gel by leaving the mixture to rest; and after freeze-drying the gel, performing pulverization for powderization. An emulsifier or ammonium salt may be further added at the time of stirring and mixing.

  • Patent number: 6156577
    Abstract: A method of measuring an amount of a polyphenol compound in a liquid sample containing at least one polyphenol compound comprises a step of separating the liquid sample into each component, a step of adding at least one reagent capable of specifically reacting with the polyphenol compound to emit light, into the components separated in the separating step, thereby to perform a reaction, and a step of detecting the light emitted by the reaction, wherein the separation in the separating step is conducted by a liquid chromatography and the reagent used for the reaction is the combination of an oxidizing agent of the polyphenol compound, a heme compound and a hydrogen acceptor. A device suitable for performing the above method is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 4900680
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring a lipid peroxide, in which a sample containing lipids is subjected to a liquid chromatography to separate the lipids into lipid classes. The lipid classes are brought into contact with a luminescent reagent which specifically reacts with a lipid hydroperoxide contained in the lipid classes to generate a light in an amount corresponding to a content of the hydroperoxide. The light is optically detected by a photodetector.

  • Patent number: 4834638
    Abstract: A tube container molding apparatus in which a cylindrical tube is inserted into a split mold in its closed state so that the end section of the tube comes into contact with a cavity face of the split mold. A core is then advanced to fit into the tube from its rear end, and finally a resin melt is introduced into the cavity formed by the cavity face of the split mold and the end face of the core.When the resin melt is injected into the cavity, a tube holding piece pushes the tube against the core to prevent the tube from being drawn out of the cavity.Midway during the advance of the core into the tube, the tube is held by the tube holding piece and the further advance of the tube is made together with the core. Thus, the forward end section of the tube is bent inward to a prescribed width.
