The reading timing determination unit determines a timing at which identification marks such as print bar codes should be read. The reading unit reads identification marks in accordance with the timing to provide identification mark data in a numerical form. The discrimination unit compares identification mark data with data value of an identification mark to be primarily printed to judge whether or not the identification mark is correctly printed. The signal generation unit produces a notifying signal when it is judged that the identification mark is not correctly printed. In this way, this apparatus tests whether or not identification marks successively printed on a moving body in the form of sheet by the printing machine are correctly printed.

Identification mark reading apparatus

A method for purifying a reaction solution obtained by using a microbial cell, an immobilized microbial cell, or an immobilized enzyme as a catalyst in a water medium is disclosed. The method comprises repeatedly filtering the reaction solution to remove fine solid matter using a polyethylene porous hollow fiber membrane having a bubble point of from 1 to 20 kg/cm.sup.2, and repeatedly washing the hollow fiber membrane before it has been clogged to such an extent that a differential pressure thereof exceeds 3 kg/cm.sup.2. By this method, a filter membrane can be repeatedly regenerated at high efficiency and can stably be used for a long period of time.

A method for purifying an aqueous acrylamide solution by using activated carbon is disclosed. The method comprises contacting activated carbon with water having oxygen dissolved therein until the dissolved oxygen concentration in water after the contact increases to at least 0.5 ppm, and then contacting the aqueous acrylamide solution with the thus treated activated carbon. The method can prevent polymerization of acrylamide around activated carbon, and the resulting purified aqueous acrylamide solution requires no further purification, such as ion-exchanging.
