There is provided a means for sterilizing lactoferrin at a high temperature in a short time while maintaining the activity of the lactoferrin. The present technology provides a method for producing a lactoferrin-containing aqueous solution, including a sterilization step of heat-sterilizing a lactoferrin-containing aqueous solution, in which the total mass content of proteins other than lactoferrin is 1/12 or less of the mass content of lactoferrin, at a temperature of 100&#xb0; C. or more. The present technology also provides a lactoferrin-containing aqueous solution in which the total mass content of proteins other than lactoferrin is 1/12 or less of the mass content of lactoferrin, and which does not contain living bacteria.

A frame synchronization apparatus () according to this invention includes a multiplication unit () configured to multiply a received signal by an inverse complex number of a predetermined synchronization pattern with respect to a predetermined signal point on a complex space diagram for each of a plurality of symbols of the received signal, an addition average unit () configured to perform addition averaging of outputs from the multiplication unit for the plurality of symbols of the received signal, and a synchronization determination unit () configured to perform coincidence determination of whether an output from the addition average unit () falls within a predetermined coincidence determination range of the predetermined signal point, and determine a synchronization state of the frame synchronization based on a result of the coincidence determination. According to this invention, it is possible to provide a frame synchronization apparatus that correctly determines a synchronization state even if an error rate of received symbols is high.

An FIR filter convolutes sampled data obtained by sampling a reception signal with tap coefficients. A phase difference detector detects a phase difference between a synchronization timing of a signal waveform estimated from an output signal of the FIR filter and a sampling timing of the output signal. A tap coefficient adjuster adjusts the tap coefficients so as to reduce the phase difference detected by the phase difference detector and causes the sampling timing of the output signal of the FIR filter to track the synchronization timing.
