Abstract: A lighting system includes a helical light-transmitting fiber and an LED. The helical light-transmitting fiber is doped with a first wavelength converting material and defines a helical axis. The LED has a light-emitting portion for emitting light of a first color. The LED is aligned axially with the first helical fiber such that a portion of any light emitted by the LED will pass through the open space between the turns of the first helical fiber and a portion of any light emitted by the LED will be received by the first helical fiber and converted to light of a second color. Adjustment of the compression of the helical fiber will adjust the mixture of colors in the light emitted by the system. Further, the relatively small cross-sectional area of the fiber serves to lessen any dye migration in the fiber.

Abstract: A sheet of conglomerate material is formed with a visible surface having the form of so-called split stone or crocodile skin using a multiple mix consisting of at least two single mixes each formed by a granulated stone material and a hardening binder. At least one of the single mixes comprises a granular material having a hardness less than that of the granular material of the at least one other mix. When the sheet, vacuum vibrocompressed and hardened, is machined using a non- rigid abrasive tool, the surface zones (14) where the mix with the granular material of lesser hardness is present are scored to a greater degree, producing the aforementioned aesthetic effect. If, on the other hand, granules (26) of a material with a very high hardness are added to the mix, a sheet with non-slip properties is obtained.

Title: Synergistic combinations of norketamine and opioid analgesics
Inventor: HOLTMAN JOSEPH R
IPC: A01N33/02
Filed: 2006-11-10
Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of alleviating pain with the administration of norketamine with a narcotic. More particularly, the invention provides a method of alleviating pain through the administration of a dose of norketamine, which, if administered alone would provide sub-optimal analgesic relief, yet provides analgesic relief when combined with a narcotic.  In some embodiments, the combination of norketamine with a narcotic, further allows for the administration of a dose narcotic, which would be sub-optimal if used alone, but provides adequate pain relief in combination with norketamine. The invention relates to self-management of pain on an outpatient basis comprising administering via conventional routes, including transdermal, nasal, rectal, oral, transmucosal, intravenous, intramuscular, and other routes, one or more doses of norketamine/opioid compositions effective to alleviate pain to a subject suffering from pain. Uses of norketamine/opioid compositions would also apply, to treating headaches, drug abuse, mood and anxiety disorders, as well as other, neuropsychiatric disorders, both motoric and cognitive, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's syndrome, which are thought to be caused by neurodegeneration.

Alternatively, a multi-lumen sheath may be passed through a valve leading to a conventional introducer. The valve may also be molded separately as a rigid insert and retained in a cavity formed in a flexible junction housing. In other embodiments, the multiple limen access device is formed by introduction of the elongated implement coaxially within a tubular single lumen sheath.

Patent CA-2657047-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCCLENATHAN DENISE MARIE
IPC: A23L27/12
Filed: 2007-07-06
Abstract: The present invention relates to flavor oils including mint-, fruit- and spice-type flavors that are specially processed to substantially eliminate low-molecular weight sulfur compounds, in particular dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), which has been found to be the main precursor of malodorous species such as dimethyl sulfide and methyl mercaptan. These malodorous species are produced via oxidation-reduction reactions involving such sulfur-containing compounds present in flavor oils. A preferred processing method is an aqueous-washing process, which has advantages of being simple, inexpensive and easy to implement while importantly avoiding the problems of typical processes including non-selective removal of desirable components and subjecting the flavor oils to extreme conditions that may destroy other components and result in undesirable changes in flavor or odor character. Other processing methods to selectively remove non-desired components include (1) distillation to remove polar low boiling point components, (2) filtration through adsorbents selective for sulfur compounds, (3) countercurrent extraction and (4) column chromatography. The processing methods may optionally be followed by reengineering to add back desired components that may have been removed or altered during the processing. The specially processed flavor oils are particularly useful in oral care compositions comprising components with chemical reducing capability such as stannous ions, which react with the sulfur-containing compounds to produce malodorous products.
