A stool container is provided with a lid body () having a lid part () for sealing a container and a stool collection rod () for collecting stool, a cylindrical container body () that has a liquid reservoir () formed at the distal end thereof via a filter holding part () and has an open proximal end, and an inner plugthat is inserted from the proximal end of the container body () in to the container body (). The distal end of the inner plug () has a bottom surface () that is orthogonal to the longitudinal direction and, in the center of the bottom surface (), a scraping part () through which the stool collection rod () can be inserted. A stool collection rod guide part is formed that comprises a plurality of sloping ribs () disposed radially around the scraping part ().

Stool collection container

A feces sampling container includes: a lid () that includes a feces sampling rod () and a cap (), a circular protrusion (); a container body (); and an inside plug () that includes a removal part (), and a circular protrusion (), the inside plug () being fitted to the inside of the container body (), a flange (), an overhang () being formed on the outer circumferential surface of the inside plug () at a predetermined position along the circumferential direction so that the overhang () is situated on the flange (), a removal mechanism (), and a cam mechanism () that positions the removal mechanism being formed over the circular protrusion () formed on the inner circumferential surface of the cap () and the circular protrusion () formed on the outer circumferential surface of the inside plug ().

Feces sampling container

Sample container

A polishing method is used for polishing a substrate such as a semiconductor wafer to a flat mirror finish. A method of polishing a substrate by a polishing apparatus includes a polishing table () having a polishing surface, a top ring () for holding a substrate and pressing the substrate against the polishing surface, and a vertically movable mechanism () for moving the top ring () in a vertical direction. The top ring () is moved to a first height before the substrate is pressed against the polishing surface, and then the top ring () is moved to a second height after the substrate is pressed against the polishing surface.

Method and apparatus for polishing a substrate

A pipette includes a cylinder having a distal end portion to which a pipette tip is removably fitted; and a piston fitted to be freely advanced and retreated in a cylinder chamber. The piston is retreated to suck liquid and advanced to eject the liquid thus sucked. The piston includes, on an outer periphery thereof, a communication groove for allowing an inside of the cylinder chamber to communicate with an outside of the cylinder chamber when the piston is advanced by an amount corresponding to a dimension larger than a predetermined dimension. The communication groove is located on the outside of the cylinder chamber when the piston is located at a retreated position. When the piston is advanced by the amount corresponding to the dimension larger than the predetermined dimension, a seal between the cylinder chamber and the piston is released so that pressure in the cylinder chamber becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure, and a suction/ejection effect is eliminated.

Pipette

A compound container has a container main body forming a first accommodation chamber, an auxiliary container forming a second accommodation chamber, a mounting part on which the auxiliary container is mounted in the container main body, a cutting part which cuts a second accommodation chamber partition wall which partitions a part of the second accommodation chamber formed in the auxiliary container, a contents outlet port in the container main body, and an opening pouring element mounted on the contents outlet port and having another cutting part which cuts a first accommodation chamber partition wall which partitions a part of the first accommodation chamber formed in the container main body.

Compound container and pouring-out method

A polishing method can safely detach and lift up a workpiece from a polishing surface without carrying out the operation of making the workpiece overhang the polishing surface. The polishing method includes carrying out processing of a surface to be polished of a workpiece by supplying a liquid to a polishing surface while pressing the surface to be polished of the workpiece held by a holding device against the polishing surface and moving the workpiece and the polishing surface relative to each other, attracting the workpiece after the processing to the holding device while supplying the liquid to the polishing surface at a decreased flow rate, thereby detaching the workpiece from the polishing surface, and lifting up the holding device together with the workpiece on confirmation of detachment of the workpiece from the polishing surface and attachment of the workpiece to the holding device.

Provided is a containerfor inspection which stores and pours out contents therein, and the container is provided with a container main bodyhaving a mouth portionformed thereon, a cover portionattached to the mouth portionto seal the container main body, and an opening capattached to the cover portion. The cover portionhas a closing wallfor closing the mouth portion, and the opening capis provided with an pouring outlet, and a cutting portionfor cutting the closing wall. When the opening capis attached to the cover portion, the cutting sectioncuts the closing wallto enable pouring out the contents. Thus, in the provided containerfor inspection, sealing properties of the container main bodyare ensured by the cover portion, and the closing wallof the cover portionis cut by the opening capattached to the cover portionwithout removing the cover portion, whereby the contents can be poured out.

Container for inspection

A light-waveform measuring device and method include a complex-refractive-index measuring device and a computer-program recording medium An electric field of an electromagnetic wave, in a light region having wavelengths smaller than those of electromagnetic waves in a near-infrared region, is measured, and time-varying waveforms are outputted. Gate-pulse-light generating means, measurement-light generating means and light-detecting means for detecting measurement light, are included, The measurement light is coherent light having a wavelength smaller than those of a near-infrared region. The gate pulse light is coherent light with a pulse width smaller than a period of the measurement light. A physical quantity, based on carriers generated from the measurement light and the gate pulse light is measured.
