Abstract: Damage to a joint part of a terminal of an electronic component mounted on a substrate is detected. The substrate includes a base material unit, a land, and a light detection unit. The land included in the substrate is arranged with a stress light emitting body configured to emit light in accordance with stress, includes a transparent member, and is joined with a terminal of an element arranged in the base material unit included in the substrate. The light detection unit included in the substrate is arranged between the base material unit and the land included in the substrate, and detects light from the stress light emitting body.

Abstract: To reduce the height of a semiconductor apparatus formed by stacking semiconductor chips. The semiconductor apparatus includes: a first package; a second package; and a connection part. The first package includes a substrate on which a first semiconductor chip and a first wiring connected to the first semiconductor chip are disposed. The second package includes a second semiconductor chip that exchanges a signal with the first semiconductor chip and has a surface on which a pad for transmitting the signal is formed, a sealing part that covers the second semiconductor chip while exposing at least a part of the surface of the second semiconductor chip, an insulation layer that is formed on the surface of the second semiconductor chip and a surface of the sealing part adjacent to the surface of the second semiconductor chip, and a second wiring that is connected to the pad via an opening disposed in the insulation layer and formed adjacent to the insulation layer, and transmits the signal.

Abstract: Provided are a bisphenol represented by the general formula (1), a method for producing the bisphenol, and a polyarylate resin, a (meth)acrylate compound and an epoxy resin which are derived from the bisphenol. In the formula (1), R1 to R4 are the same or different, and each represent an alkyl group, an aryl group or a halogen atom, n1 and n2 are the same or different, and each represent an integer of 1 to 4, and k1 to k4 are the same or different, and each represent 0 or an integer of 1 to 4. When at least one of k1 to k4 is 2 or more, corresponding R1 to R4 may be the same or different.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide fermented beverages that give no sweetness in aftertaste and which have less off-flavors by a technique that will not affect the principal taste and aroma characteristics and which is highly acceptable to consumers. To attain this object, the proportion of trisaccharides in the assimilable sugars in the fermentation raw material solution or fermenting solution is adjusted, such that the yet-to-be assimilated sugars which remain in the fermenting step will not consist mainly of trisaccharides. Specifically, fermentation is performed while the proportion of trisaccharides in assimilable sugars in the fermentation raw material solution is adjusted to be no more than 25 wt %.

Abstract: Beer-flavored fermented beverages made from malt or other grains maintain their high quality for a long period of time without changing quality and remain as flavorful as they are immediately after production. Fermented beverages such as beer, happoshu, miscellaneous alcohol beverages and low-alcohol fermented malt beverages having high storage stability are provided by increasing the sulfurous acid concentration in the fermented beverages to 5.0 ppm or above. This is done by adjusting the concentration of free amino nitrogen (FAN value) in wort and other fermentation liquids to 25 mg/100 mL or below and adding a mineral source for fermentation.

Abstract: It is a common concern among beverages to avoid or prevent off-flavors (unpleasant smells) from developing during a yeast-based fermentation step. The present invention relates to low-alcohol beverages produced through a fermentation stopping process and provides a method for producing fermented beverages with less off-flavor and with an excellent aroma. The L-methionine concentration and the free amino nitrogen level (FAN level) in wort are adjusted to reduce the hydrogen sulfide concentration and the T-VDK concentration, thus enabling the production of fermented beverages with less off-flavor, i.e., sulfur and diacetyl smells.

Abstract: A spiral wound type membrane element is formed by winding independent or continuous envelope-like membranes around the peripheral surface of a water collection pipe and interposing raw water spacers between the envelope-like membranes. When running, raw water is supplied from at least the periphery side of the spiral wound type membrane element and permeate is taken out from an opening end of the water collection pipe. In back wash reverse filtration, permeate is introduced from the opening end of the water collection pipe and permeate guided out from the peripheral surface of the water collection pipe is discharged from at least the periphery side of the spiral wound type membrane element.

Abstract: There are provided a deproteinized natural rubber latex which comprises a purified product of proteolytically treated natural rubber latex and contains fine particles of natural rubber latex, a deproteinized natural rubber which comprises a dehydrated product of the deproteinized natural rubber latex, and a process for the production of deproteinized natural rubber latex which comprises subjecting a latex solution prepared by (1) adding water and/or a surfactant to a natural rubber latex and then proteolytically treating the resulting latex solution or (2) proteolytically treating a natural rubber latex and then adding water and/or a surfactant to the treated natural rubber latex, to purification using a rotary plate membrane separation apparatus.
