Title: Stabilized formulation of ivermectin feed premix with an extended shelf life and method of making the same
Inventor: FREEHAUF KEITH ALLAN
IPC: A23K20/195
Filed: 2004-12-17
Granted: 2012-05-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a stabilized premix feed or feed-like formulation that has an extended shelf life due to a decrease of the degradates of the active ingredient by controlling the amount of an already existing stabilizer in the formulation. The feed premix is used in the treatment or prophylaxis of parasites in mammals, in particular swine and horses. The invention further relates to a method to extend the shelf life of a stable premix feed or feed-like formulation for the treatment or prophylaxis of parasite infestation in swine and horses comprising controlling the amount of an already existing antioxidant or stabilizer in the formulation to decrease or to prevent the formation of acid/base catalyzed decomposition of the active ingredient.

Title: Dynamic halogenation of sorbents for the removal of mercury from flue gases
Inventor: DOWNS WILLIAM
IPC: B01J8/00
Filed: 2005-03-21
Granted: 2010-05-25
Abstract: A halogen-containing gas is injected into a flowing transport air/sorbent stream at a point close to the point where the sorbent and transport air first mix to maximize the residence time available for the halogen-containing compound to be adsorbed onto the sorbent surface prior to the sorbent being injected into a flue gas containing mercury. This process maximizes the benefit and utilization of the halogen-containing reagent by placing it exactly where it is needed to facilitate elemental mercury removal - on the surface of the sorbent. The sorbent particles with their loading of adsorbed halogen-containing reagent enter the flue gas with a high reactivity for the removal of elemental mercury.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for detecting the presence or amount of an analyte in a sample, said method comprising: a porous surface to which particles having attached thereto a binding substance, analyte and binding substance coated label particles are added. If said analyte is present in the sample an immuno- or chemical reaction occurs in the liquid phase. The separation of bound complex from unbound material is achieved by using said surface where the separation occurs mainly two dimensionally on the surface of the porous surface (e.g. grid). Interestingly, the disclosed surface enables a separation where said complexes are distributed two dimensionally on the porous surface (e.g. grid), whereas unbound materials are distributed three dimensionally. Accordingly, said surface enables both a two and a three dimensional separation.
