Abstract: An insect screen of increased invisibility can be created by using small wire diameter elements and/or increasing the mesh density of the screen. The combination of small wire diameter and increased mesh density provide a screen with a higher Dalquist Rating that becomes invisible at closer distances. A  "sweet spot" exists at which a screen with a combination high mesh density and small wire diameter is less visible, while still providing the strength, durability, and quality desired. Further, screens with properties in proximity to this sweet spot also provide a marked increase in invisibility.

Abstract: A treatment prosthesis is specifically designed to be efficiently fabricated without the use of bite rims or interocclusal records, thus resulting in a device that is beneficial in the development and training of patient tissues and muscular structures prior to the fitting of actual dentures. The treatment prosthesis, and the related method for fabrication, is efficiently designed using mathematical formulas and reference planes such that very little adjustment is necessary when incorporated into a patient's mouth. The treatment prosthesis includes several anterior teeth, thus providing some level of realism, while also including only occlusion rims on the posterior portions so that muscular development can be achieved without having to deal with natural interference created by typical cusp structures of molar teeth.

Abstract: To improve the encryption technique in a data processing apparatus such that the possibility of communication decryption by a third party is reduced. A  data processing apparatus wherein data, which is to be processed, is encrypted to provide encrypted data; this encrypted data is then recorded into a predetermined recording medium; and the encrypted data recorded in the recording medium is decoded to reproduce the data to be processed. During the encryption, the data to be processed is divided into predetermined bits of divisional plaintext data, and then each divisional plaintext data is encrypted. At this moment, the numbers of bits of the divisional plaintext data are varied, while dummy data is mixed into the divisional plaintext data other than the one having the largest number of bits. In this case, the dummy data has the same number of bits as the divisional plaintext data having the largest number of bits.

Abstract: [PROBLEMS] To provide a polymeric pharmaceutical agent which can contain the active ingredient in a larger amount, which can be highly accumulated in tumor tissues, and which has a molecular size that is large enough not to undergo the renal excretion. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] The polymeric pharmaceutical agent capable of containing the active ingredient in a large amount can be produced by forming a styrene-maleic acid copolymer (SMA) micelle complex comprising a metalloporphyrin derivative (e.g., zinc protoporphyrin) and an SMA conjugated to each other via non-covalent bonding. This SMA micelle complex can be produced by reacting a metalloporphyrin derivative with an SMA  in the absence of a condensing agent under alkaline conditions, solubilizing the resulting product, adjusting the reaction to pH 6 to 8, and collecting a polymeric micelle complex component having the active ingredient contained therein by a procedure for separating a polymeric component.

Patent CA-2615630-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROCKHILL ALVIN T
IPC: A61K38/095
Filed: 2007-12-20
Abstract: The subject invention relates to a skin cream that can be used to moisturize and rejuvenate skin that has been damaged by exposure to sunlight or which has simply been affected over the years by intrinsic aging. It can also be used to slow the rate of photo-induced aging to maintain beautiful skin tone and texture over the years. It inhibits the formation of wrinkles and in some cases reduces the depth of existing wrinkles or eliminates them entirely. In some cases, the skin cream of this invention also lightens age spots and other types of blemishes associated with aging. This invention is based upon the discovery that alkyl lactates, such as ethyl lactate, can be used to improve the penetration of active ingredients in skin care formulations deep into lower layers of the skin tissue. For instance, ethyl lactate can be included in aqueous based skin creams, such as oil in water emulsions, to deliver active ingredients deep into the skin structure. Ethyl lactate is particularly desirable for utilization in conjunction with ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) containing skin cream formulations. This is beneficial because the overall effectiveness of skin creams that utilize ascorbic acid as an active ingredient is contingent upon delivery of the ascorbic acid through the outer layers of the stratum corneum and viable epidermis and into the dermis layer of the skin structure. The present invention more specifically discloses a topical formulation comprising about 1 weight percent to about 20 weight percent ascorbic acid, about 1 weight percent to about 10 weight percent of an amino acid selected from the group consisting of phenylalanine and tyrosine, about 0.5 weight percent to about 5 weight percent of a non--toxic zinc salt, about 0.01 weight percent to about 20 weight percent of an alkyl lactate, wherein the alkyl group in the alkyl lactate contains from 2 to about 12 carbon atoms, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
