Inventor: BARRITAULT DENIS
IPC: A61K31/737
Filed: 2004-10-28
Abstract: Using biocompatible polymers (I), containing carboxy and O- or N-sulfonate substituents, in the production of pharmaceutical, dermatological or cosmetic compositions (A) or medical devices (B) for the prevention, alleviation and/or treatment of (or protection of tissue against) discomfort, distress, pruritis, irritation and/or pain, is new. The use of biocompatible polymers of formula (I) in the production of pharmaceutical, dermatological or cosmetic compositions (A) or medical devices (B) for the prevention, alleviation and/or treatment of (or protection of tissue against) discomfort, distress, pruritis, irritation and/or pain. A aX xY y (I) A : monomer; X : RCOOR'; Y : O- or N-sulfonate group attached to A, of formula -ROSO 3R' or -NRSO 3R'; R : linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon chain (optionally containing one or more aromatic rings); R' : H or a cation; a : number of monomer units; x : degree of substitution of the monomers A by X; and y : degree of substitution of the monomers A by Y. ACTIVITY : Dermatological; Antipruritic; Analgesic; Vulnerary; Ophthalmological; Auditory; Antiinflammatory; Antiallergic; Antiulcer; Neuroprotective; Antipsoriatic; Antiasthmatic; Osteopathic; Antiarthritic; Gastrointestinal-Gen. Typically sunburn was treated using a polymer (Ia) consisting of dextran of molecular weight 2 kD which had been carboxymethylated (degree of substitution 0.4-0.5) and O-sulfated (degree of substitution 0.7-1). A solution of (Ia) (100 Microg/ml) in physiological saline containing methyl cellulose (in a amount sufficient to give a thin pasty consistency) was applied to the affected areas. Pain was alleviated within 10-30 minutes, and did not reappear the next day. MECHANISM OF ACTION : None given.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de déposer une pellicule mince d'un composé non polymère sur un substrat au moyen d'un mélange constitué du composé non polymère et d'un excipient fluide. Le mélange susmentionné est ensuite pompé à l'intérieur d'une enceinte d'évaporation chauffée présentant une température interne suffisante pour transformer essentiellement l'ensemble du mélange constitué du composé non polymère et de l'excipient fluide en une forme gazeuse. Le composé non polymère et l'excipient fluide sont ensuite retirés de l'enceinte d'évaporation par l'intermédiaire d'une fente d'évacuation ménagée dans l'enceinte d'évaporation. Un substrat qui est placé à côté de la fente d'évacuation et qui est maintenu sous vide permet la condensation du composé non polymère. Le substrat est déplacé, par exemple sur un rouleau à bande, ce qui permet de déposer en continu le composé non polymère sur le substrat.

Abstract: L'invention concerne la configuration de bornes d'entrée/sortie de puce de sorte qu'elles puissent se présenter sous la forme de bornes d'entrée, de bornes de sortie ou de bornes bidirectionnelles. En outre, les bornes d'entrée/sortie peuvent être configurées avec des sources de signaux différentes lorsqu'elles se présente sous forme de bornes de sortie ou de bornes bidirectionnelles. Par ailleurs, lesdites bornes peuvent éventuellement être inversées lors d'un fonctionnement dans un sens quelconque. Si nécessaire, un mécanisme permet de changer de configuration, par exemple, en vue d'une correspondance avec différentes broches sur le boîtier conformément à la configuration du boîtier et à d'autres exigences de mise en oeuvre. Cette configurabilité permet d'obtenir une souplesse remarquable et une indépendance entre la puce sur laquelle le circuit intégré est monté et le boîtier.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, un objet à prendre en image ou à détecter est éclairé par une seule source lumineuse à large bande, ou par plusieurs sources lumineuses émettant la lumière à des longueurs d'onde différentes. La lumière est détectée par un détecteur (200), qui comprend un photodétecteur (400) couverte par un filtre hybride. Le filtre hybride comprend un filtre multibandes à bandes étroites (516) monté sur une couche filtrante à motifs (508). La lumière percute le filtre à bandes étroites (516), qui la laisse passer au niveau ou à proximité des longueurs d'onde multiples d'intérêt et la bloque à tous les autres longueurs d'onde d'intérêt. La couche filtrante à motifs (508) laisse passer la lumière de manière alternée, à une longueur d'onde particulière, tout en la bloquant aux autres longueurs d'onde d'intérêt. Cela permet au  détecteur (400) de déterminer soit simultanément, soit de manière alternée, l'intensité de la lumière aux longueurs d'onde d'intérêt. Des filtres (902) peuvent également être installés au-dessus de la lumière, au niveau des sources lumineuses, afin de rétrécir les spectres des sources lumineuses.

Abstract: A reference voltage generating circuit generates a reference voltage Vref. An A/D
converting circuit compares an analog input voltage Vin with the reference voltage Vref to
convert the analog input voltage Vin to a digital output value Dout. A measured value
storing circuit stores a measured value of the reference voltage Vref in advance and outputs
the stored measured value. A user of an A/D converter corrects the digital output value Dout
from the A/D converting circuit by use of the measured value of the reference voltage Vref
outputted from the measured value storing circuit, thereby obtaining a digital value
representing the analog input voltage Vin accurately irrespective of the accuracy of the
reference voltage Vref.

At the time of reaction (iii), the acid functional group resulting from the anhydride ring opening may be selected from an ethylenically unsaturated monomer, a polymer, or both. In one embodiment, the method does not include the physical removal of any acid functional monomers or polymerization products. Also disclosed are a curable coating composition and a coated substrate.
