Abstract: Provided is a non-woven fabric which is suitable for cleaning wipers, diapers, food packaging materials, etc., and has excellent water absorption and handling performance. The non-woven fabric according to the present invention contains a thermoplastic biodegradable resin, and is characterized in that fibers constituting the non-woven fabric have crimps, the flexural rigidity index in the mechanical direction (MD) of the non-woven fabric is 7.77-37.4 as defined by the following equation: flexural rigidity index in the mechanical direction (MD)=flexural rigidity (gf·cm) in the mechanical direction (MD)/{basis weight(g/m2)}2.5×106, and the bulk density of the non-woven fabric is 0.098 g/cm3 to 0.251 g/cm3.

Abstract: Provided is a heterocyclic compound that can have an antagonistic action on an NMD A receptor containing the NR2B subunit and that is expected to be useful as a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for depression, bipolar disorder, migraine, pain, peripheral symptoms of dementia and the like. A compound represented by the formula (I), wherein each symbol is as defined in the DESCRIPTION, or a salt thereof.

Abstract: The present invention provides: a biodegradable non-woven fabric that is biodegradable, is excellent in terms of uniform moldability and shapability (obtaining, in a shorter time, a neat molded body with no tearing, nap, or stretching irregularities), and which has favorable dimensional stability after molding; and a method for producing a molded body. A biodegradable non-woven fabric according to the present invention comprises fibers containing a biodegradable thermoplastic resin, and is characterized in that: the basis weight is 10-450 g/m2; the difference between the melting point and the crystallization onset temperature of the non-woven fabric is not less than 91° C.; and the cold crystal enthalpy heat quantity ?H of the non-woven fabric is not less than 1.0 J/g.
