Patent CA-2365577-A1 (CA)
Title: Absorbent article having detachable components
Inventor: RICHARDSON IRENE
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 2001-12-18
Abstract: An absorbent article including a disposable diaper, reusable diaper, feminine care pad, training pants, incontinence garment and the like. The article comprises a detachable flushable topsheet and an absorbent pouch containing absorbent contents; however, the detachable topsheet is optional. A fastening means releasably attaches the absorbent pouch in a stationary position within the article and prevents the pouch from shifting with respect to the article. The detachable topsheet can be removed from the article and flushed in a toilet together with the human waste. A binding allows the pouch to be opened to flush the absorbent contents and human waste inside the pouch, in segments to avoid clogging a toilet.   Instead of flushing, the absorbent pouch can be removed from the article and disposed of in a waste receptacle, by rolling the pouch, with minimum finger contact with human waste, and securing the pouch to itself using an adhesive tab.

Patent CA-2390723-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHEN AIRU S
IPC: C12N5/02

Abstract: On a modifié par génie génétique des cellules ainsi que des animaux transgéniques pour provoquer leur carence en matière de gène codant la protéine du récepteur de la mélanocortine-3 (MC-3R). Les animaux transgéniques présentant une carence en MC-3R ont une masse adipeuse accrue et une masse corporelle excluant la graisse réduite, ce qui démontre que la protéine du MC-3R participe à la régulation de la graisse corporelle et de la masse musculaire. Il est possible d'utiliser ces animaux transgéniques présentant une carence en MC-3R pour sélectionner et tester des modulateurs éventuels du MC-3R. L'obtention de ces données débouche sur des méthodes de criblage de modulateurs du MC-3R ayant une influence sur le poids corporel ainsi que sur des méthodes associées visant à traiter divers troubles liés à une régulation inappropriée du poids corporel. L'invention porte également sur des souris présentant une déficience double des MC-3R/MC-4R, souris que l'on peut utiliser pour sélectionner et tester des modulateurs éventuels (par exemple, des agonistes ou des antagonistes) du MC-3R et/ou du MC-4R. Cette invention prouve que le MC-3R a un rôle non redondant, par rapport au MC-4R, dans la régulation de l'homéostasie de l'énergie.
