A polyisocyanate composition having at least one isocyanate compound selected from an aliphatic isocyanate and an alicyclic isocyanate as a skeleton, wherein an average value of a total number of isocyanate groups blocked with a blocking agent and not blocked with a blocking agent per polyisocyanate molecule is 2 or more, and among the isocyanate groups in the polyisocyanate composition, 1 mol % or more and 99 mol % or less are blocked with a blocking agent, and the like.

Abstract Provided is an oil/fat composition comprising 60 to 100 wt. % of a diglyceride wherein the diglyceride has, as the fatty acid constituent thereof, 15 to 90 wt. % of an &#x3c9; 3-unsaturated fatty acid having less than 20 carbon atoms and a cis &#x3c9; 3-unsaturated fatty acid/(cis &#x3c9; 6-unsaturated fatty acid+saturated fatty acid+trans unsaturated fatty acid) at a weight ratio of 1 to 6. The composition is excellent in visceral fat burning property, body fat burning property and stability against autoxidation.

Oil/fat composition

Provided is an oil/fat composition comprising 10.1 to 94.9 wt. % of a triglyceride, 0.1 to 30 wt. % of a monoglyceride and 5 to 59.9 wt. % of a diglyceride which has, as a fatty acid constituent thereof, 15 to 90 wt. % of an &#x3c9;3-unsaturated fatty acid having less than 20 carbon atoms. The oil/fat composition of the present invention has excellent heat stability, has body-fat-accumulation resisting action, visceral-fat-accumulation resisting action, blood-sugar-level lowering action, insulin resistance improving action and leptin lowering action and is useful for, as well as pharmaceuticals, preventive or remedial food for diabetes or obesity, and feed.

A proteinase-resistant cellulase, a microorganism producing the same, and a process for producing such a proteinase-resistant cellulase is disclosed. The cellulase can be used as an additive to detergent compositions for washing clothes containing a proteinase, without immobilization or stabilization by chemical modification. The proteinase-resistant cellulase can be produced by a novel microorganism, Aspergillus niger KSM-24 [deposited with Fermentation Research Institute, Agency of Industrial Science and Technology (FERM BP-3359)].

Novel alkaline cellulase K, CMCase I and CMCase II are obtained by isolation from a culture product of Bacillus sp KSM-635. These enzymes stably work in a wide range including an alkaline side, and their activity is shown even at low temperatures. Further, they have a strong resistance to surface active agents, chelating agents and proteinases. Therefore, they can be effectively utilized not only as an additive for clothing detergents, but also as a biomass and in other fields.
