Abstract: PCT No. PCT/US94/02558 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 9, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 9, 1994 PCT Filed Mar. 8, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO94/20111 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 15, 1994.The present invention is directed to a method for preventing or reducing ischemia following injury, such as reperfusion injury following ischemia, cellular damage associated with ischemic episodes, such as infarctions or traumatic injuries, and thus to prevent or reduce the consequent progressive necrosis of tissue associated with such ischemia. This effect is achieved by administering DHEA or DHEA derivatives to a patient as soon as possible after the injury. The present invention is further directed to methods for preventing or reducing bacterial translocation or adult respiratory distress syndrome in a patient. Similarly, bacterial translocation and adult respiratory distress syndrome are prevented or reduced by administering DHEA or DHEA derivatives to a patient. Suitable derivatives of DHEA include, among others, 16 alpha -bromo-DHEA, androstenediol and derivatives which have side chains at the 4' and/or 7' positions, which do not destroy the native activity of DHEA but which are capable of inhibiting sulfotransferase to prevent the conversion of DHEA to DHEA-S.

Granted: 2004-02-19
Abstract: A pouch (for example a urostomy pouch or an incontinence pouch) comprises a front wall (22), a rear wall (24) having an entrance aperture (32), and a central partition (36). The partition divides the pouch into an entrance chamber (38) and a collection chamber (40) located one in front of the other. A pad (42) of superabsorbent material is located in the collection chamber (40) and extends above the lower level of the entrance aperture (32). In use, urine entering the pouch is directed downwardly and through a lower permeable region (36) of the partition, whereafter it is absorbed and gelled by the superabsorbent material pad. The urine is also wicked upwardly by the pad (42) so that the full height of the pouch can be used as a liquid-collection region. In one preferred form, the pouch has a figure-of-eight profile, including a waist (66) which helps to control bulging of the pouch, and help keep the pouch flat for an optimum wicking effect. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Title: Process for adjusting the moisture content of tobacco
Inventor: WINTERSON WARREN D
IPC: A23L7/10
Filed: 1993-11-01
Granted: 1997-06-19
Abstract: A process for reordering tobacco, which results in no significant decrease in equilibrium tobacco CV or significant tobacco degradation, is provided. Tobacco to be reordered is contacted with an air stream having a relative humidity near the equilibrium conditions of the tobacco. As the ov content of the tobacco increases, the relative humidity of the air stream contacting the tobacco is increased to affect reordering of the tobacco. Also provided is a process for drying tobacco, which results in no significant change in equilibrium tobacco CV or significant tobacco degradation. Tobacco to be dried is contacted with an air stream having a relative humidity near or below the equilibrium conditions of the tobacco. As the OV content of the tobacco decreases, the relative humidity of the air stream contacting the tobacco is decreased to affect drying of the tobacco. It has been found that tobacco can be reordered or dried successfully in a continuous manner using a self-stacking spiral conveyor. <IMAGE>

Title: Improved multicomponent mixtures for use in geological exploration
Inventor: MULLER HEINZ
IPC: C09K23/42
Filed: 1997-10-21
Granted: 2001-04-26
Abstract: Flowable and pumpable multicomponent mixture contains emulsifiers and additional soluble emulsifiable and dispersible auxiliary agents. The novelty is that the use of emulsifiers, e.g. emulsifier systems, lead to temperature-controlled phase inversion at a phase inversion temperature (PIT) within the range lying at the highest limit of below the working temperature of the multicomponent mixture in the region of the geological outcrop. The water-based part of the multicomponent mixture in the region of the geological outcrop is present as dispersed (invert) phase in the closed oil phase (w/o invert emulsion), whilst the lowest limit of the temperature region facilitates the conversion of the multicomponent mixture to the o/w emulsion with a closed aqueous phase.
