Abstract: Provided are a spiral film element capable of securing more electric power without any complicated work, a spiral film-filtration device having the element, and a film-filtration device managing system and a film-filtration device managing method using the device. The spiral film-filtration device comprises a sensor (such as a flow rate sensor (32)) for detecting the properties of a liquid, a power-generating unit (such as a coil (25)) for generating an electric power with the liquid, and a radio-transmission unit (a communication unit (36)) supplied with the electric power from the power-generating unit for radio-transmitting a detected signal from the sensor. As a result, the power-generating unit generates the electric power by using the liquid (such as raw water, filtered water or condensed water) detected by the sensor, so that more electric power can be secured without any complicated work. The electric power from the power-generating unit is supplied to at least the radio-transmission unit, and the detected signal of the sensor is radio-transmitted from the radio-transmission unit.

Title: Methods and compositions for hydrophobic modification of oral cavity surfaces
Inventor: BAIG ARIF ALI
IPC: A61Q11/00
Filed: 2010-09-09
Granted: 2014-07-17
Abstract: Oral care compositions containing agents that are effective for treating and modifying teeth and mucosal surfaces to be hydrophobic are disclosed. Hydrophobic modification of teeth and other oral cavity surfaces imparts a variety of end use benefits including prevention of caries, erosion, wear, staining, sensitivity and desquamation as well as providing shine, smoothness and positive tooth feel benefits. The compositions contain selected surface active organophosphate compounds that deposit and adhere to teeth and other oral cavity surfaces forming a hydrophobic coating having prolonged retention thereon. By forming a "hydrophobic coating" on the oral cavity surface is meant that the hydrophobic character of the surface is increased as measured, for example, by an increase of at least about 10 degrees in the water contact angle of the surface after treatment. The increased hydrophobic character of the surface is maintained for a period of at least about 5 minutes and desirably longer such as at least about 10, at least about 20 or at least about 30 minutes. The compositions may contain additional hydrophobic materials to further increase hydrophobicity of the surface and/or functionality of the coating to provide surface protection and many other benefits.

Granted: 2012-08-30
Abstract: APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR OPTIMAL TISSUE Abstract A system and method for optimizing tissue separation using modulated or duty 5 cycle controlled waveforms (40) on desiccated tissue, where the desiccated tissue has a high electrical impedance. In bipolar electrosurgical procedures, tissue separation is separated with the application of an electrical signal. When tissue does not completely separate and becomes desiccated, generator (30) may generate a duty cycle controlled waveform (40) with specified duty cycle (42) and frequency or modulated waveform (60). 10 Modulated waveform (60) is generated by adding or multiplying one or more waveforms (40) together. Modulated or duty cycle waveforms (40) create power pulses with higher voltages and a low RMS value. Power pulses drive power and create heat in the high impedance tissue. The creation of heat helps to mobilize water content adjacent to the desiccated tissue. The heating and mobilization of water induces motion into the tissue is and aids in the complete separation of tissue while keeping the RMS power low.
