Information-processing device transmits biological information not being encrypted in association with an application ID to information delivery server device, and transmits encrypted biological information in association with a user ID to backup server device. Advisory terminal accepts an input of advice according to a user data set stored in information delivery server device. Client terminal downloads the advice according to the user data set from information delivery server device.

Information-processing device, service-providing system, service-providing method, and computer program

Included are Gateway server GWS which clocks the precise present time, and portable phone MS which performs a packet communication through gateway server GWS and IP server W. Portable phone MS acquires the time information from gateway server GWS, at the time of starting communication with IP server W and corrects, on the basis of this time information, the clocking present time of its own portable phone MS so that it is more precise. In addition, portable phone MS decodes a public key certificate (an electronic certificate issued by Certificate Office C for the public key certificate of IP server W) using the public key of Certificate Office C. Then the portable phone MS judges whether it is within the validity period specified in the public key certificate, using the corrected present time of its own portable phone MS.

To provide a simple examination method of buffer capacity of saliva without influence by examiner's subjectivity and an examination instrument to carry out suitably the examination method, an examination instrument, in which two to ten kinds of chemical liquids each containing a pH indicator having a transition interval within a pH range of 3.0 to 7.0 and capable of easily discriminating its indicated color at two or more stages and an acid in an amount so as to exhibit a different pH value within a pH range of 1.5 or more but lower than 3.0 when water in the same amount as that of saliva to be examined is added at a temperature of 25&#xb0; C. and a humidity of 50% are each immersed in a water-absorptive material, or are in a liquid or gel state and are accommodated within a constant-volume container, is prepared; saliva of a subject in a volume to be examined is added to each of the chemical liquids; after lapsing a predetermined time, the color of each chemical liquid is measured as a readily discriminable indicated color; and the buffer capacity of saliva is determined by overall evaluation from the readily discriminable indicated color as exhibited by the chemical liquid.

Examination method of buffer capacity of saliva and examination instrument of buffer capacity of saliva

To provide an examination method of buffer capacity of saliva and an examination instrument of buffer capacity of saliva, by which the buffer capacity of saliva of a subject can be examined simply without being influenced by an amount of saliva and preciously without being influenced by the subjectivity of an examiner, an end portion of an absorptive material in a predetermined shape, containing a pH indicator at least having one or more color transition range of pH 4.0 to 7.0 and an acid, is dipped in saliva to allow the saliva to penetrate into the absorptive material, and a buffer capacity of the saliva is examined from a distance where a color to be exhibited by the pH indicator has changed by the penetrated saliva from a predetermined place of the absorptive material and a distance where the saliva has penetrated from a predetermined place of the absorptive material.

The object of the present invention is to provide a gas injection nozzle which is used for pouring liquid metal and which is prevented from being blocked in the course of continuous casting. According to the present invention, a gas injection nozzle for pouring liquid metal is provided, wherein
