Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a photosensitive member configured to be rotated; scanning means for scanning, by light corresponding to image data, the photosensitive member that is charged, thereby forming an electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive member; and a contacting member in contact with the photosensitive member to form a nip portion. In a correction mode in which a shift of an image is corrected based on a detection result obtained by detecting, at the nip portion, an electrostatic latent image for correction formed on the photosensitive member by the scanning means, a width of the electrostatic latent image for correction is equal to or more than a width of the nip portion in a rotation direction of the photosensitive member.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a control unit configured to form electrostatic latent images for correction on a photosensitive member; a voltage application unit configured to apply a voltage to a process unit; a current detection unit configured to detect a current to the voltage application unit via the process unit when the voltage is applied to the process unit; and a conversion unit configured to convert an output value detected by the current detection unit such that a variation range of the output value detected by the current detection unit at a formation period of the electrostatic latent image for correction becomes larger than a variation range of the output value detected by the current detection unit at a one-rotation period of the photosensitive member on which the electrostatic latent image is not formed.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a process unit arranged in the vicinity of the circumference of each photosensitive member and the process unit is configured to act on the photosensitive member in forming a toner image thereon. The image forming apparatus detects a time period since a laser beam emission unit emits a laser beam to the photosensitive member to form an electrostatic latent image for detection until the formed electrostatic latent image for detection or a toner image based on the electrostatic latent image for detection reaches the process unit, and performs color misregistration correction control based on the result of detection. In this case, a control unit at least decreases the light amount of a pre-exposure LED when the electrostatic latent image for detection passes through a position facing the pre-exposure LED.

Abstract: An effective and simple process for producing a fine dispersion of a poorly soluble drug; and a fine sparingly-soluble-drug dispersion having excellent dispersion stability. In a first step, a poorly soluble drug is suspended in a liquid containing no deflocculant and the suspension is subjected to a high-pressure treatment with a high-pressure homogenizer. In a second step, a deflocculant is added to the dispersion obtained in the first step and this dispersion is subjected to a deagglomeration treatment such as a high-pressure treatment with a high-pressure homogenizer or an ultrasonic treatment. Thus, a fine dispersion of the poorly soluble drug is effectively and simply produced in which the size of the particles dispersed is on the order of nanometer. The fine sparingly-soluble-drug dispersion produced has excellent dispersion stability and the fine particles of the poorly soluble drug do not suffer aggregation/sedimentation even upon standing.
