Abstract: According to one embodiment, a post-processing apparatus includes a first sensor, a second sensor, and a control unit. The first sensor detects an object in a predetermined area in which a predetermined post-process is performed on a sheet conveyed from an image forming apparatus. The second sensor detects an object at a position closer to an opening in the area than the position of the first sensor with respect to the opening through which the sheet passes when the post-processed sheet is discharged from the area. When the second sensor detects an object before the first sensor detects the object, the control unit performs a predetermined process for preventing the occurrence of a failure.

Abstract: A culture container includes a container main body and a filmlike member. The container main body has a recessed part and a bottom part 17 in which a plurality of microwells for containing a cell-culture solution is formed. The filmlike member is a member that is disposed above the plurality of microwells inside the recessed part and limits the movement of each spheroid that has grown inside its corresponding microwell such that the spheroid does not separate from the corresponding microwell. Thus, spheroids can be stably formed in the culture container.

Abstract: A low cost transdermal patch comprises water soluble microneedles and has good performance. A transdermal patch comprises a microneedle sheet, which comprises a plurality of water soluble microneedles, moisture permeable sheet, wherethrough water vapor passes, and a reinforcing film. The reinforcing film is adhered, by an adhesive layer having an adhesive strength less than that of an adhesive layer, onto an outer surface of the moisture permeable sheet, which is the side opposite the skin opposing surface. The reinforcing film includes a water vapor barrier sheet, which blocks the passage of water vapor through at least a first area, and a removable portion around the water vapor barrier sheet. The removable portion is configured such that it can be separated from and peeled off the water vapor barrier sheet.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a light emitting unit that emits light, a document reading unit, an image forming unit, a decoloring unit, and a control unit. The document reading unit generates image data from an original document that is irradiated with light from the light emitting unit. The image forming unit forms an image on a sheet based on the image data generated by the document reading unit, wherein the image is formed of a decolorable material that is decolored when heated to a predetermined temperature or higher. The decoloring unit decolors the image on the sheet using heating. The control unit controls a light intensity of the light emitted from the light emitting unit based on a temperature of the decoloring unit.
