Abstract: A pattern phase difference film, which is used to display 3D images using a passive system, and provides a method for producing a pattern phase difference film that can be manufactured with high precision, easily and in large quantities. A mask, which has slits that are made narrow compared to the width of a region that is to undergo exposure treatment and are provided for exposure treatment, is manufactured.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a pattern phase difference film, which is used to display 3D images using a passive system, and provides a method for producing a pattern phase difference film that can be manufactured with high precision, easily and in large quantities. In a mask provided for manufacturing an alignment film, slits, which are provided for exposure treatment, are made so as to gradually narrow toward the ends in the longitudinal direction.

Abstract: Peptide derivatives of the following general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein AAA is deletion or Ser, BBB is deletion or Glu, CCC is deletion, Ile, Phe, Leu, cyclohexylalanine, D-alle or Lys substituted at the .epsilon.-position by C.sub.6 --C.sub.18 alkylcarbonyl group, DDD is Gly or Gln, EEE is Leu, Nle or Phe, FFF is Met, Leu or Nle, GGG is Ala, Ser Leu, Asn, Asp or Gln, HHH is Leu, Glu or Lys, III is His, Lys or Arg, JJJ is His, Lys or Arg, Xaa is Ala modified at the carboxy terminal with an amino group, provided that CCC and DDD may independently be modified at the amino terminal by C.sub.2 --C.sub.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the peptides consisting of 25-50 amino acid residues and comprising the following peptide sequence:Leu-Met-His-Asn-Leu-Gly-Lys-Ser-Ile-Gln-Asp-Leu-Arg-Arg-Arg-Phe-Phe-Leu-His -His-Leu-Ile-Ala-Glu-Ile (I)and amides and salts thereof. The peptides have stronger inhibitory activity against hPTH when compared with conventional inhibitors, and therefore, they are expected to be useful for the treatment of various diseases associated with calcium or phosphoric acid metabolism such as hypercalcemia and osteoporosis, or diseases associated with PTH and PTHrP.

Abstract: A multicolor electrophotography apparatus and method wherein a photoconductive copy sheet surface containing uniform electric charge is exposed to an original through light filter which enables one color to be recorded, is developed with colored toner to produce a copy of that color, and the sequence is repeated for each of the other colors, utilizing superimposing toner images on the same copy sheet. In a preferred embodiment a sheet carriage is adapted to hold the copy sheet at its upper edge portion and carry it only in a certain direction for example in a vertical direction whereas a developer bed on which a plurality of developer reservoirs, each containing different colored developer toners are mounted, is adapted to travel in the other direction for example in the horizontal direction.
