In a battery degradation monitoring system provided with a battery monitoring unit including a temperature sensor for detecting the ambient temperature of a battery mounted on a vehicle and a clock function unit to compute the state of charge and the degradation rate of the battery as a whole by inputting the voltages and temperatures of a plurality of battery modules of the battery from cell monitoring units when an ignition switch of the vehicle is on, the battery monitoring unit is further actuated by the clock function unit each time a predetermined period of time elapses when the ignition switch of the vehicle is off to integrate a degradation function formula with respect to the ambient temperature detected by the temperature sensor and compute the degradation rate of the battery when the ignition switch is off.

Method for producing basic amino acid solution

Herein is disclosed an aqueous stable lysine solution containing an acid radical in such amount that the solubility of lysine therein has been increased than in the corresponding aqueous lysine base solution, whereby during storage of lysine in the form of a free-lysine solution (liquid composition), the precipitation of lysine base crystals due to the drop in temperature is prevented thereby improving the handling thereof during transportation (transfer) etc.

Aqueous stable lysine solution

A method for removing cells from a fermentation broth obtained by culturing a microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia through a membrane to separate the cells, comprising adding polyethyleneimine to the fermentation broth to form a mixture, and then filtering the mixture through the membrane to separate the cells, said method resulting in improving the membrane permeation rate compared to when no polyethyleneimine is added.

Process for production of alpha-keto acid/amino acid salt compounds

A method for separating electrolytes which have different charges of the same sign or of carrying out ion exchange of electrolytes with counterions, which comprises causing the electrolytes (anion or cation) to pass through a positively or negatively charged loose reverse-osmotic membrane, in an aqueous solution.

Method for separation of electrolytes, and method for ion exchange of
