Title: B complex vitamin compositions that protect against cellular damage caused by ultraviolet light
Inventor: BARCLAY BARRY J
IPC: A61Q17/04
Filed: 2001-07-06
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the use of vitamin B12 (cobolamin or cyanocobalamin) alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents, including specifically other vitamins such as vitamin B9 (folic acid or folate) and vitamin B3 (niacin or niacinamide), or any chemical derivative of these vitamins and their salts, as a filter to protect cells against the damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) light. The invention is, in one aspect, a method of reducing the rate of UV damage to cells exposed to a UV light source, by treating the cells with the vitamin composition, either alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents. Other aspects of the invention are compositions comprising effective amounts of vitamin B12 alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents including vitamin B9 and vitamin B3 and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier, that are useful in protecting cells, particularly skin cells, against the burning, genotoxic (mutagenic and carcinogenic), immunosuppressive and photoaging effects of UV light, especially sunlight. The invention has application as a UV light filter in oral preparations including tablets and drinks, topical creams, lotions, sprays, wipes and cosmetics. The invention also has application as a medicinal treatment for dermatological conditions caused by exposure to sunlight, such as actinic keratoses, photodermatitis, photo-induced (discoid) lupus erythematosus and the photosensitizing effects of a variety of drugs used commonly in clinical practice (e.g. certain antihistamines, ACE inhibitors, and antibiotics such as tetracycline).

IPC: A61K9/22
Filed: 2001-08-17
Abstract: A wearable, self-contained drug infusion device is disclosed that is capable of achieving the precise flow rate control needed for dose-critical drugs such as insulin. In preferred embodiments of the device, at least two flow channels are utilized in conjunction with a series of valves for providing a user with selectable, constant flow rate control. The device can be made with small dimensions so that it can be worn by the user with a minimum of discomfort and inconvenience. In addition, the simple mechanical nature of the device provides the user with close control over the flow rate, which is required for safe and effective delivery of insulin and other drugs. Also, the absence of electronic components allows the device to be manufactured inexpensively. The device is provided with a first channel that is long and narrow, functioning as a flow restrictor. The first channel is preferably provided in a serpentine pattern. A second channel is also provided that has a larger cross section so that flow is not restricted. A series of valves are used to force the flow of fluid through a selectable portion of the serpentine portion of the first channel before entering the remainder of the second channel and flowing to the delivery cannula. In one embodiment of the device, a needle port is provided in fluid communication with the delivery cannula for delivering bolus injections. In another embodiment, a bolus button is provided for delivering bolus injections. A flow restrictor is preferably included in the bolus button to limit the rate at which the bolus button refills.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé pour extraire un premier sorbat présentant une première énergie d'activation de désorption et un second sorbat présentant une seconde énergie d'activation de désorption à partir d'un sorbant, au moyen d'un désorbeur à deux étages. Au premier étage, le premier sorbat, le second sorbat et le sorbant sont mis en contact avec un fluide d'extraction présentant une première température suffisante pour séparer du sorbant le premier sorbat dans une phase vapeur. Au second étage, le second sorbat et le sorbant sont chauffés à une seconde température supérieure à la première température, afin de séparer du sorbant le second sorbat dans une phase vapeur. Le second sorbat peut ensuite être condensé en une phase liquide et être vendu afin de compenser les coûts du processus. L'introduction d'énergie par micro-ondes ou par rayonnement infrarouge pour extraire le second sorbat du sorbant peut faciliter le chauffage au second étage. L'utilisation de cette énergie par micro-ondes ou par rayonnement infrarouge peut être facilitée avec un gaz de purge qui peut également être chauffé afin de servir de gaz d'extraction. Un appareil associé comprend deux chambres de désorption ou une seule chambre de désorption à utiliser aux deux étages.

Abstract: Un bioréacteur de perfusion à deux chambres résiste à une quantité suffisante de contraintes de cisaillement tout en permettant le transfert de produits biologiques utiles à valeur nutritive élevée (p.ex., de protéines, hormones, facteurs de croissance, anticorps monoclonaux) et l'évacuation des déchets, et ce sans perturber la culture cellulaire. Les cellules et tissus contenus dans la chambre de croissance sont suspendus dans un milieu de croissance par la rotation du récipient et séparés par une membrane poreuse de la chambre d'alimentation. Les éléments nutritifs et les gaz traversent la membrane, en direction de la chambre d'alimentation jusqu'à la chambre de croissance. Une dispersion régulière le long de la barrière membranaire est effectuée grâce à une nouvelle voie d'écoulement de dispersion nutritive. La voie d'écoulement est créée par l'écoulement depuis un arbre central dans le récipient puis le long de la partie avant du disque de dispersion de produits nutritifs; il sort ensuite par l'arbre de sortie central de retour. La chambre d'alimentation peut rester en perfusion constante avec un milieu frais ou recyclée pour maintenir une concentration constante d'un milieu ou d'un composant de test spécifique, p.ex., un médicament de test candidat, un facteur de croissance ou un composé anticancéreux. Le dispositif à chambre de perfusion double permet la fixation de tous types de cellules humaines représentant différents types de tissus de l'organisme humain.

Abstract: Silica crucibles containing an inner layer which is substantially pure and substantially
bubble-free and methods for making such crucibles. The inner layer is also
substantially stable against roughening and spot devitrification. The inner layer is
formed by making a web structure which is then converted to a continuous layer,
thereby minimizing or eliminating bubble formation. The inner layer is also formed
using a gettering agent which getters alkaline and alkaline-earth elements while the
inner layer is formed. The alkaline and alkaline-earth elements are gettered on an
innermost portion of the inner layer which is later removed, leaving an inner layer with
relatively few impurities. When used in a CZ-crystal growing process, the inner
surface of the crucible remains smooth and substantially no bubbles grow in the inner
layer.
