Super-elastic titanium alloy for medical uses

A medical guidewire comprised of an NiTi-based alloy having a high elasticity over a wide range of strain, excellent straightness, and preferable shape and characteristics of a stress-strain curve in a tensile test. The wire is obtained by applying a predetermined tension to a cold drawn NiTi-based alloy wire and mechanical straightening it under conditions of a predetermined torsional shear strain and temperature and shows superior pushability, torque transmission, and reinsertability as a medical guidewire, so is preferable for a catheter guidewire, endoscope guidewire, etc.

Disclosed is a poultry drinking water additive containing live bacteria of the genus Bacillus and monosaccharides, which can alleviate body weight loss of poultry for meat production after feed withdrawal before slaughter, and which can reduce harmful bacteria such as of the genus Salmonella in the intestine of poultry for meat production and layers during the period of fasting by feed withdrawal. Also disclosed are a method for orally administering the poultry drinking water additive to poultry, a method for alleviating body weight loss of poultry for meat production using this method, and a method for reducing harmful bacteria in the intestine of poultry for meat production or layers.
