Abstract: A management apparatus includes: an extraction section that, on the basis of an electric power quantity of each of the plurality of electric vehicles, the electric power quantity being indicated by electric power quantity information, extracts at least one of the electric vehicles that is among the plurality of electric vehicles and that corresponds to an electric power state of one or more of the plurality of charging facilities, the one or more being included in a target area; and a transmission section that transmits information pertaining to the target area to at least one of the at least one of the electric vehicles that has been extracted by the extraction section.

Abstract: Disclosed is a collagen powder and/or a collagen derivative powder, which are obtained by dispersing in a hydrophilic organic solvent a crude collagen precipitate which comprises 12 to 50% by mass of a collagen precipitate and/or a collagen derivative precipitate having an average particle size of 1 to 1,000 ?m, recovering solids and then drying the solids. By dispersing the crude collagen precipitate in the hydrophilic organic solvent, the resulting precipitates can be dehydrated, so that drying of the thus obtained solids can be done by air-drying. In addition, the resulting collagen powder and/or collagen derivative powder exhibit excellent solubility due to an increased specific surface area and also have excellent ease of handling with the average particle size being 8 to 1,000 ?m.
