Title: Face masks for use in pressurized drug delivery systems
Inventor: SMALDONE GERALD C
IPC: A61M15/00
Filed: 2002-05-17
Granted: 2009-10-27
Abstract: Face masks (170) for use in pressurized drug delivery applications, such as aerosol drug delivery systems, and a method of reducing aerosol deposition in the region of the eyes are presented. The face masks according to the various embodiments disclosed herein contain features (150) that reduce the inertia of the aerosolized drug in perinasal ares. This results in a reduction in the amount of aerosolized that is deposited in the region of the eyes by inertial impaction, while at the same time, the features (150) are constructed to maintain the flow of the aerosolized drug into the face mask so that the aerosolized drug is effectively delivered to the respiratory system of the patient.

Abstract: Selon la présente invention, les cellules dendritiques(DC) peuvent être dérivées de différentes sources parmi lesquelles figurent les monocytes du sang périphérique, en la seule présence du facteur GM-CSF, sans cytokines supplémentaires, si lesdits monocytes ne sont pas activés. Lorsque le processus d'activation est inhibé, ou lorsque l'on empêche la fixation des cellules sur la surface du récipient de culture, les monocytes ne nécessitent pas la présence de cytokines supplémentaires, telles que IL-4 ou IL-13, pour empêcher la différenciation vers une lignée cellulaire non dendritique. Les DC immatures générées et maintenues ainsi se présentent sous la forme de CD14?-¿ et expriment des niveaux élevés de CD1a. En outre, lors de leur maturation par contact avec un agent tel que le BCG ou l'IFN.gamma., les cellules expriment des molécules de surface typiques de cellules dendritiques matures, purifiées par des procédés antérieurs et mises en culture en présence du facteur GM-CSF et d'IL-4. Les cellules dendritiques matures produites à partir de monocytes sans activation et mises en culture en la seule présence du facteur GM-CSF peuvent être utilisées dans le cadre de procédés d'immunothérapie fondés sur des cellules dendritiques, ou peuvent être employées pour traiter des maladies parmi lesquelles figure le cancer.

Title: Method and apparatus for delivering conditioned air using pulse modulation
Inventor: DEMSTER STANLEY J
IPC: F24F11/00
Filed: 2003-06-26
Granted: 2012-12-11
Abstract: A method and apparatus for delivering conditioned air using short duty cycles during which a damper (80) is fully open for a time and fully closed for the remaining time. Conditioned air is continuously supplied to a plenum (48) at low pressure and is applied to the space when the damper is open and blocked when the damper is closed. The proportion of on to off time during each duty cycle is adjusted to meet the load. When several supply terminals serve a space, their duty cycles are staggered to avoid fan instability. A special motor (84)is coupled directly to the damper (shaft82) for fast opening and closing of the damper. A magnetic latch (100) holds the damper open or closed until the motor moves it again.
