Forty Type IIb or IV hyperlipidemic patients (serum triglyceride concentrations were higher than 150 mg/dl) were treated with fenofibrate (300 mg/day) for 12 weeks. Lipid profile and uric acid metabolism were evaluated before and after the treatment; the serum concentrations of total cholesterol and triglyceride respectively decreased from 224 ± 41.9 mg/dl to 199 ± 35.2 mg/dl and from 205 ± 71.7 mg/dl to 134 ± 67.5 mg/dl (p < 0.001). The uric acid concentrations in the serum also significantly decreased from 7.0 ± 1.58 mg/dl to 5.2 ± 1.57 mg/dl (p < 0.001). Fenofibrate treatment did not cause any change in the serum xanthine and hypoxanthine concentrations. Instead the urinary concentrations of uric acid decreased from 7.0 ± 1.58 mg/dl to 5.2 ± 1.57 mg/dl (p < 0.01), while the clearance ratio of uric acid and creatinin increased from 6.1 ± 2.56 to 9.9 ± 3.87 (p = 0.02) by the fenofibrate treatment. Fenofibrate decreases uric acid concentrations in the serum not as a result of inhibition of uric acid production but by increasing the urinary excretion of uric acid.

We evaluated the toxicity of tetradecanoic acid methyl ester sodium salt (C14-MES), a major component of fabric detergents, following the test guidelines of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. The rat acute oral LD50 was 1,000 mg/kg in males and 500 mg/kg in females. Applying the combined repeated dose and reproductive/developmental toxicity screening test (ReproTox), we exposed groups of Crj:CD (SD) IGS rats to C14-MES in the diet at concentrations of 0, 0.3, 0.6, or 1.2%. We observed decreases in fibrinogen levels and longer prothrombin time at the 1.2% treated level in females and decreases in serum triglyceride levels in both sexes at the 0.6% and 1.2% treatment levels, but the effects were not clinically significant. The no-observed-effect-level (NOEL) for repeated dose toxicity was 0.3% (175 mg/kg body weight/day for males, 249 for females). The NOEL for reproduction/developmental toxicity was 1.2% (740 mg/kg for males, 1039 for females). C14-MES was negative in the reverse gene mutation assay and the chromosomal aberration test and did not induce skin sensitization in the guinea pig maximization test. These data confirm that C14-MES is of low hazard potential.

This paper reports the ecotoxicological study of “tetradecanoic acid, 2-sulfo-, 1-methylester, sodium salt (C14MES)”. This salt was synthesized by sulfonating 1-methyl tetradecanoic acid derived from palm oil and coconut oil with sulfur trioxide. The tests were attempted in accordance with the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals. The 72 h ErC50 exceeded 100 mg/L in the alga growth inhibition test. In the daphnia acute immobilization and reproduction tests, 17.2 mg/L of 48 h EC50 and 4.10 mg/L of NOEC were derived, respectively. These ecotoxicities of C14MES were equivalent to or lower than that of other similar anionic surfactants, such as LAS (linear alkylbenzene sulfonate) or AOS (alpha olefin sulfonate).

Nanosized patterns of tantalum oxide were fabricated on a tantalum substrate by applying a potential pulse utilizing current sensing atomic force microscopy (CSAFM). The dimensions of the dots were strongly dependent on the bias applied, scan rate, and potential pulse duration. By controlling these variables, the minimum size nanodots with full width at half maximum of 35 nm was achieved. Immediately after pattern formation, the electrical properties of the Ta oxide nanodots were measured using CSAFM. The charge transport at the CSAFM tip and the nanosized Ta oxide dot can be described by Poole–Frenkel type conduction. The relative dielectric constant of the nanosized Ta2O5 dots was calculated to be 17.8–24.3, showing that the quality of the oxide was high. In addition, by controlling the substrate bias applied, pulse duration, and tip scan speed, nanosized Ta oxide lines with the desired dimensions were prepared.

75-kDa chitinase, which showed potential as a biocontrol agent against Japanese pine sawyer, was characterized after purification from the integument of the fifth instar larvae of Bombyx mori by chromatography on diethylaminoethyl (DEAE)-Toyoperal 650 (M), hydroxylapatite, and Fractogel EMD DEAE 650 (M) columns. The optimum pH was 6.0 toward N-acetylchitopentaose (GlcNAc5) and 10 toward glycolchitin. The optimum temperature was 60 °C toward GlcNAc5 and 25 °C toward glycolchitn. The enzyme was stable at pH 7–10 and below 40 °C. Kinetic analysis and reaction-pattern analysis using glycolchitin and N-acetylchitooligosacchraides as substrates indicated that 75-kDa chitinase is an endo- or random-type hydrolytic enzyme to produce the β anomeric product and that it prefers the longer N-acetylchitooligosaccharides, suggesting, together with the N-terminal amino acid sequence, that the 75-kDa chitinase belongs to family 18 of glycosyl hydrolases.

The objective of this paper is to give overviews of text mining or textual data mining in Japan from the practical aspects. Text mining is the technology utilized for analyzing large volumes of textual data applying various parameters for purpose of withdrawing useful knowledge and information. The essence of “Mining” is "the discovery of knowledge or information." And target of text mining is to objectively discover and extract knowledge, facts, and meaningful relationships from the text documents. This paper summarizes the related disciplines and application fields which are applied in text mining, and introduces features and application examples of text mining tools.

A new algorithm called Mersenne Twister (MT) is proposed for generating uniform pseudorandom numbers. For a particular choice of parameters, the algorithm provides a super astronomical period of 219937 - 1 and 623-dimensional equidistribution up to 32-bit accuracy, while using a working area of only 624 words. This is a new variant of the previously proposed generators, TGFSR, modified so as to admit a Mersenne-prime period. The characteristic polynomial has many terms. The distribution up to v bits accuracy for 1 ≤ v ≤ 32 is also shown to be good. An algorithm is also given that checks the primitivity of the characteristic polynomial of MT with computational complexity O(p2) where p is the degree of the polynomial. We implemented this generator in portable C-code. It passed several stringent statistical tests, including diehard. Its speed is comparable to other modern generators. Its merits are due to the efficient algorithms that are unique to polynomial calculations over the two-element field.

J-STAGE登載雑誌の論文を引用した論文数および引用した著者の地域分布を,J-STAGE登載の前後で比較した。また,J-STAGE利用団体へのインタビュー,調査対象誌を引用した著者への質問票調査を実施した。これらの結果から,わが国の学術雑誌が電子化されることによって,利用が拡大したか,当該分野への影響力が増したのかどうかを考察した。J-STAGEは流通の促進に貢献しているが,実際に引用に影響を与えるためには,審査レベルの向上や魅力的な記事の掲載等,編集方針の変更によって質を向上させることが必要であることを指摘した。
