Abstract: With respect to evaluation of the efficacy of cleaning of a medical apparatus, the present invention provides a cleaning evaluation filth for a medical apparatus, the filth simulating a body fluid in a human body cavity and exhibiting good reproducibility of evaluation of the efficacy of cleaning. With respect to the cleaning evaluation filth of the present invention, proteins and lipids having concentrations for forming at least bile and serum, which are primary components for constituting a human digestive juice, are produced by dispensing reagents of proteins and lipids.

Abstract: The present invention provides a sterilization confirmation tester and a test pack which enables effective sterilization to be confirmed in a simple and sure manner by providing a simulation of the structure of an endoscope and so forth. The sterilization confirmation tester according to the present invention has a function of confirming effective sterilization treatment after sterilization performed by a sterilization apparatus. The sterilization confirmation tester includes a structure corresponding to at lest one of the components which form the endoscope.

Abstract: A hairstyle displaying system stores a hairstyle data for indicating a plurality of types of hairstyles, and a coloring data for indicating a plurality of types of hair colors, in a style content database. Individual data which constitutes the hairstyle data or the coloring data is managed with change-over-time data, which indicates the state of a change over time. Moreover, these data are also associated with predetermined feature parameters, which define the features of a head portion of a customer. For example, after hair treatments at a beauty shop, the hairstyle displaying system generates and displays a future image, which shows how the current hairstyle and hair color will change as time passes, with respect to the customer.

Abstract: Attribute data for indicating the attributes of a customer and feature parameters for indicating physical features are recorded in a customer chart. In a server, from among a plurality of hairstyle data and coloring data stored in a style content database in advance in association with the attribute data and the feature parameters, hairstyle data and coloring data which match the attribute data and the feature parameters of the customer recorded in the customer chart are searched for. At the same time, the image of the face portion of customer imaged in advance are combined with the searched hairstyle data and coloring data, to thereby generate the image of the customer. The generated image is suggested to the customer, as the image of the customer having a hairstyle that objectively suits the customer.

Abstract: A display apparatus includes a half mirror for allowing light incident from the rear to pass through to the front and reflecting light incident from the front toward the front, a display section placed at the rear of the half mirror, an image pickup section for picking up an image of the user and generating user image data, an image data retention section for retaining a plurality of pieces of attachment member image data, an image combining section for combining the attachment member image data selectively read from the image data retention section and the user image data to generate combined image data, and an image display control section for displaying the combined image data on the display section.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a new temperature zone of freezer compartment as a compartment having a new temperature zone not higher than a lower limit of a maximum ice forming temperature zone and higher than a freezing temperature zone. The new temperature zone may be added as one of selective temperature zones for a switchable compartment which can be switchable so as to have a refrigerating compartment temperature zone, an icing temperature zone, a vegetable compartment temperature zone and a freezer compartment temperature zone.
