IPC: A01N43/653
Filed: 2006-03-29
Abstract: A method of strikingly inhibiting the generation of mycotoxin by fungi which would exert serious influence upon the health of human body and animal; and a relevant mycotoxin generation inhibitor. The content of mycotoxin, such as deoxynivalenol (DON), in crop after harvest can be lowered without correlation to the efficacy of controlling fungi by spraying a pesticide containing as an active ingredient a benzimidazole pesticidal compound, such as thiophanate-methyl, over an edible plant, such as wheat or the like.

Inventor: MCNIE MARK EDWARD
IPC: G02B26/00
Filed: 2006-10-19
Abstract: An optical modulator comprising a spacing-controllable etalon having at least one sprung micro- mirror suspended above a substrate. At least one electrically insulating stop is provided between the micro-mirror and the substrate to avoid short-circuit when the micro-mirror is drawn towards the substrate by an applied voltage. An optical detector detects the time of arrival of a first laser pulse. A control circuit predicts from this an arrival time of the next incident laser pulse and, responsive to a control signal, either retains the micro-mirror in its pulled-down state held against the insulating stops or releases the micro-mirror at a time predicted to maximise or minimise the light transmitted through the modulator. After a time interval calculated to permit a predetermined number of mechanical oscillations, the micro-mirror is pulled back down onto the stops.

Title: Lipophilic vehicle-based dual controlled release matrix system
Inventor: SUKURU KARUNAKAR
IPC: A61K31/196
Filed: 2006-10-26
Abstract: A lipophilic vehicle-based dual controlled-release matrix, suitable for encapsulation in hard or soft capsules, has been developed. The matrix is in the form of a suspension, which allows for easier formulation of low dose compounds and/or compounds which are moisture sensitive. The matrix includes two rate controlling barriers for the controlled release of one or more pharmaceutically active agents. The primary rate controlling barrier includes a relatively lipophilic oily vehicle. The primary rate controlling barrier may further comprise or more excipients, dissolved in the lipophilic vehicle, which themselves have rate controlling properties. The secondary rate controlling barrier is a hydrogel-forming polymeric material which is dispersed in the primary rate controlling barrier. As the primary rate controlling barrier breaks down, the pharmaceutically active agent is slowly released and the surrounding aqueous media begins to percolate into the polymer matrix. This results in hydration of the polymer and subsequent formation of a hydrogel, which controls the release of the drug by diffusion through, and/or erosion of, the hydrogel. By dispersing or suspending part of the pharmaceutically active agent in the primary rate controlling vehicle, a dual release profile can be obtained. The combination of release of the drug from the lipophilic oily vehicle and release of the drug from the hydrogel allows for the modulation of drug release for up to 24 hours. This system is particularly useful for moisture sensitive drugs as the oily layer prevents water migration from the shell in to the fill.
