摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions and their use for the treatment of human skin, particularly facial skin, to alleviate the symptoms of cosmetic or dermatologic skin conditions. Also provided are compositions for use in oral care, e.g. to reduce biofilm concentration in the oral cavity, in enhancing dental health and in treating or preventing gum diseases and tooth decay. The invention further relates to treating and ameliorating skin conditions including acne, rosacea and wrinkling caused by photodamage or conditions related to aging, hormonal imbalances, hyperpigmentation, melasma, keratosis or the like. The invention can also be used to treat conditions of the scalp such as dandruff. The present invention further relates to compositions that can be used to remove biofilms from contact lenses. More particularly, a composition is provided comprising (a) one or more metasilicate; (b) one or more carbonate; (c) one or more gluconate; and (d) one or more sulfate. The composition may also contain (e) salts, e.g., sea salts and other additives or active agents.
摘要:
Systems and methods are provided for collecting waveform data for a plurality of appliances that may be found in a residential or commercial setting using multi-port outlet monitoring devices to obtain power consumption profiles that indicate power consumption on a per-appliance and/or per-location basis and/or per user basis. The plurality of appliances is reliably identified from the power consumption profiles. In accordance with a method embodiment, waveform data transmitted from an unknown appliance is independently metered via a multi-port monitoring device over an elapsed time period. The metered waveform data is wirelessly transmitted from the multi-port monitoring device to a co-located system controller which constructs an appliance signature. The process may be repeated to generate multiple appliance signatures. The one or more appliance signatures are compared to a database of pre-stored canonical signatures to determine if there is a match to identify the appliance.

Self-aligning antenna system for aligning an antenna (1), preferably a disc antenna, to a required signal, the antenna system being provided with a motorised drive (2), a transmission mechanism (3) which connects the drive with the antenna (1) to align same, and corresponding control electronics (4), wherein the self-aligning antenna system (1) with said transmission mechanism (3) forms a first unit and the motorised drive (2) forms a second unit, wherein the first unit and the second unit are connected to align the antenna and disconnected after the alignment, such that the antenna remains fixed in the aligned position. Such an antenna system can be used, for example, in or near caravans, motor homes or tents
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel carboxylic acid-substituted idebenone derivatives, skin treatment compositions containing these carboxylic acid-substituted idebenone derivatives, methods of treating skin changes by topical application of these carboxylic acid-substituted idebenone derivatives, and their methods of synthesis. The carboxylic acid-substituted idebenone derivatives of the present invention are unexpectedly effective in treating skin, particularly with respect to skin tolerance. When included in a topical composition, the carboxylic acid-substituted idebenone derivatives of the present invention have an antioxidant effect that is useful in treating a skin change.
