摘要:
The present invention discloses liquid precursor compositions adapted for application on a hard surface in the oral cavity, comprising at least one therapeutic agent suitable for the treatment of oral disorders, at least one acidic-pH sensitive polymer, at least one hydrophobic polymer, and a pharmaceutically acceptable volatile carrier, wherein a weight ratio between said at least one hydrophobic polymer and said at least one acidic-pH sensitive polymer is larger than 1. The invention also discloses formulations formed of the solidification of these compositions, and methods for treating oral disorders by applying these compositions on hard surfaces in the oral cavity or to be placed in the oral cavity.

There are provided a method of CT volume reconstruction based on a baseline sinogram obtained by a prior scanning an object in B directions, and a system thereof. The method comprises: a) obtaining initial partial sinogram by initial repeat scanning the object in b directions out of B directions, b being substantially less than B; b) comparing the baseline sinogram and the initial partial sinogram to assess, for each voxel associated with the object, a likelihood of change; e) using the assessed likelihood of change for generating configuration data informative, at least, of rays to be cast in a further repeat scan in an un-scanned direction; d) performing a repeat scan in the un-scanned direction in accordance with the generated configuration data, thereby obtaining partial sinogram, and using the partial sinogram for updating the assessed likelihood of change; e) repeating operations c) and d) until all directions have been scanned to yield respective partial sinograms; f) composing the baseline and the partial sinograms into a composed sinogram; and g) processing the composed sinograms into an image of the object.

Reverse hexagonal mesophase (HII) liquid crystals provide multi-component hexagonal systems for use in solubilizing and/or protecting from degradation one or more bio-macromolecule and/or active material, and relates to therapeutic and non-therapeutic applications, such as an oral delivery system, where the mesophase is adapted for oral administration. The present invention provides the formation of mesophase systems of ternary glycerol monooleate (GMO)/water combinations which comprise at least one triglyceride or an equivalent thereof. At least one biomacromolecule or drug is incorporated in the mesophase of a pharmaceutical composition or oral delivery system.

In a system and method for generating a synopsis video from a source video, at least three different source objects are selected according to one or more defined constraints, each source object being a connected subset of image points from at least three different frames of the source video. One or more synopsis objects are sampled from each selected source object by temporal sampling using image points derived from specified time periods. For each synopsis object a respective time for starting its display in the synopsis video is determined, and for each synopsis objects and each frame a respective colour transformation for displaying the synopsis object may be determined. The synopsis video is displayed by displaying selected synopsis objects at their respective time and colour transformation, such that in the synopsis video at least three points that each derive from different respective times in the source video are displayed simultaneously.

A guided tracheal intubation system using an autonomous modulated light source, outputting modulated illumination at a constant level, and externally applied to the subject's larynx region. An optical imaging system receives a video stream from within the subject's throat, including modulated illumination from the subject's trachea. A display control system performs signal processing on the modulated content of the images, and outputs frames of those images in which the intensity level of illumination from the trachea can be controlled without any need to change the illumination output from the modulated light source. The light source has no connection with the rest of the system, and need contain no more than a battery, a power supply circuit and a light source. It can therefore be of low cost and can be made disposable, such as in the form of an adhesive patch applied to the subject's neck.

The present invention relates to novel plants, in particular to pepper plants capable of producing fruits which can be kept a longer period of time on the plant as well as being stored after harvesting under refrigerated conditions without exhibiting excessive softening. The invention thus refers to pepper plant which produces fruits with significantly increased fruit firmness at the harvesting stage, wherein said increased fruit firmness is controlled by a genetic determinant, monogenic, wherein said increased fruit firmness is defined as a fruit deformation under a 1 kg load force that is lower than that of a fruit from a control pepper plant which does not have the said genetic determinant
