The present invention relates to an adhesive composition for a touch panel, an adhesive film, and a touch panel. The adhesive composition for the touch panel of the present invention is applied to the touch panel, for example, to an electrostatic capacitance-type touch panel, for hiding the pattern of a conductive layer even when being coupled to the conductive layer formed with the pattern. Also, the adhesive composition of the present invention can prevent yellowing and whitening.

A non-lasing superluminescent light emitting diode (SLED) comprises a semiconductor heterostructure forming a PN junction and a waveguide defining an optical beam path. The heterostructure includes a gain region and an absorber region in series with the gain region in the optical beam path. A voltage is applied to the PN junction in the gain region by first contact means, so that light emission from the active region and along the optical beam path is produced. According to the invention, second contact means are provided, contacting the PN junction in the absorber region and operable to remove charge carriers generated by absorption in the absorber region. The second contact means are not connected to a voltage source, but to a charge carrier reservoir such as a metal surface. According to a preferred embodiment, the two end facets of the waveguide are perpendicular to the optical beam path.

The present invention provides a biochip reader for reading the image information of samples using a photodetector device, by irradiating a corresponding beam of excitation light at each site of a biochip on which a plurality of the samples are arranged at equal pitches, the biochip reader comprising: a microlens substrate provided with a plurality of microlenses to transform excitation light to be irradiated at the biochip into a multibeam; and a zoom lens located between the microlens substrate and the biochip and capable of projecting the multibeam while adjusting the pitch between sites of the biochip to the pitch of the multibeam. The present invention further provides a fluorometric imaging apparatus for detecting the image of a specimen by irradiating excitation light at samples on the specimen arranged in a two-dimensional manner and measuring fluorescent light produced from a fluorescent substance attached to the specimen, the fluorometric imaging apparatus comprising: a two-dimensional photodetector device for detecting excitation light passing through the specimen or reflecting off the surface thereof; and movement means for repositioning the specimen according to images observed on the photoreceptor device.

The invention relates to a reactor driven in an oscillatory-rotary manner about its fixed, preferably vertical, axis, for preferably biotechnological and pharmaceutical applications. By means of its process-intensifying properties for mixing, suspension, gaseous material transport, heat transfer, irradiation and particle retention, the applicability on the industrial scale is ensured. The reactor which succeeds without a shaft seal permits particularly robust production with respect to sterile technique with avoidance of cleaning and cleaning validation required when the reactor is constructed as a single-use reactor.

Provided is a container for a viscous cosmetic such that even when the viscous cosmetic makes contact with the applicator comprised of silicone resin there is little swelling of said applicator and the quality of the viscous cosmetic container is well maintained. An applicator made of silicone resin inside which is formed a flow-way which can communicate with a housing for internally housing a viscous cosmetic is connected to one end of the housing. A distributing port which communicates with the flow-way is formed in the applying-surface of the applicator and the viscous cosmetic within the housing can be discharged outward from the distributing port. The degree of swelling of the applicator produced by contact with the viscous cosmetic is set to from 0 wt % to 5.0 wt % by including from 50 to 100 wt % with respect to the whole of the fluid oil fraction of any one, or combination, of deodorized polybutene, isostearyl oxystearate, polyglyceryl tri-isostearate or macadamia nut oil for the fluid oil fraction of the viscous cosmetic.

A method of packaging medical supplies includes overlapping a front film onto a back film, at least one of the front and back film being transparent and bacteria impermeable and does not transmit molecules as large as or larger than O2, extending a material that is gas permeable and bacteria impermeable along an opening side of at least one of the front and back film, and sealing the periphery of the front and back films except for the opening to form a packaging bag; inserting medical supplies in the packaging bag and then sealing the bag; sterilizing an interior of the packaging bag with EO gas injected through the material that is gas permeable and bacteria impermeable, removing the gas after sterilization and drying; and sealing the packaging bag so that the material that is gas permeable and bacteria impermeable does not communicate with the inside of the packaging bag.

The invention provides a device and method for focusing in a fluorescence microscope. According to the device and method for focusing in the fluorescence microscope, the focusing time can be shortened, the system speed can be increased, and undesired photobleaching can be avoided. According to the fluorescence microscope, part of exciting light is used for forming an image of a sample so that the focal plane of fluorescence imaging can be determined. Due to the fact that the intensity of the part of exciting light is far greater than the intensity of fluorescence, the exposure time for forming a focusing target image is greatly shortened. The fluorescence microscope can conduct prefocusing and multi-path focusing.

A process for antiglare film production which comprises: a step in which a coating fluid for antiglare layer formation and a coating fluid for low-refractive-index layer formation are prepared, the coating fluids each containing an ingredient capable of localizing; a coating step in which the coating fluid for low-refractive-index layer formation and the coating fluid for antiglare layer formation are applied to a support to form an upper coating layer and a lower coating layer, respectively; and a drying step in which the coating layers are dried and caused to undergo phase separation, whereby the ingredients localize and an antiglare layer and a low-refractive-index layer are formed. By the process, an antiglare film which inhibits a display from suffering external-light reflection thereon, glittering, and the whitening caused by irregular reflection can be produced at low cost.
