Inventor: CASCONE PAUL J
IPC: A61K6/04
Filed: 2004-09-21
Abstract: Dental prostheses are machined from a metallic body instead of being made by lost wax casting. Suitable gold base alloys have only base metal alloying additions which are more readily oxidized than gold and when combined with the gold can be age hardened. Exemplary metals include titanium, zirconium, yttrium and chromium. Scrap from the machining of a dental prosthesis is melted in air so that the base metals are all oxidized and substantially pure gold is reclaimed for reuse in new alloys.

Abstract: An ionic surfactant-based protomicroemulsion composition contains, by weight of the protomicroemulsion, at least about 20 % of an ionic surfactant system, less than about 10 % nonionic surfactant, and from about 0.25 % to about 50 %  of a water-insoluble oil. Preferably, the PME contains from about 5 % to about 79 % of a solvent. The protomicroemulsion forms a microemulsion when diluted from about 10 % to about 99 % with water. A protomicroemulsion contains limonene and/or terpineol therein. A microemulsion has a high-capacity oil absorption phase and a low-capacity oil absorption phase. The high-capacity oil absorption phase has a high-capacity oil absorption value corresponding to a high-capacity oil absorption function. The high-capacity oil absorption function defines a high-capacity oil absorption area. The low-capacity oil absorption phase has a low-capacity oil absorption value corresponding to a low-capacity oil absorption function. The low-capacity oil absorption function defines a low-capacity oil absorption area. The ratio of the high-capacity oil absorption area to the low-capacity oil absorption area is from about 75:25 to about 95:5. A protomicroemulsion may form such a microemulsion.

Patent CA-2520501-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LEUNG KENT K
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2004-04-28
Abstract: An invention is disclosed that enables proxy Mobile IP registration to be performed in a secure manner. Various security mechanisms may be used independently, or in combination with one another, to authenticate the identity of a node during the registration process. First, an Access Point receiving a packet from a node verifies that the source MAC address identified in the packet is in the Access Point's client association table. In addition, as a second mechanism, the Access Point ensures that a one-to-one mapping exists for the source MAC address and source IP address identified in the packet in a mapping table maintained by the Access Point. As a third mechanism, a binding is not modified in the mobility binding table maintained by the Home Agent unless there is a one-to-one mapping in the mobility binding table between the source MAC address and the source IP address. Similarly, the Foreign Agent may also maintain a mapping between the source IP address and the source MAC address in its visitor table to ensure a one-to-one mapping between a source IP address and the associated MAC address. The MAC address is preferably transmitted in a MAC address extension to the registration request and registration reply packets. In this manner, the Access Point, Home Agent, and Foreign Agent may ascertain the node's MAC address and ensure a one-to-one mapping between the IP address and the MAC address during the registration process.
