摘要:
An apparatus for handling empty two-piece capsules includes a vertically reciprocating feeder which extracts capsules from a hopper and forms randomly ordered linear arrays. A horizontal row of capsules are fed by the feeder to key-shaped slots in a block below the feeder. A blade reciprocally positioned adjacent the wider portion of the key-shaped slots moves into the slot at about the middle of the capsule to turn the capsules so as to be partly positioned within the narrower portion of the key-shaped slot. Each capsule is then ejected by projectable pins into a channel where the capsules are pneumatically accelerated into a pair of mated receiving rings which separate the two halves of the capsule.

摘要:
Compounds useful as potassium channel inhibitors and especially useful for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias and cell proliferative disorders are described.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for synthesizing indolylmaleimides by reacting an activated maleimide preferably with an optionally substituted organometalic-3-indole in the presence of a transition metal catalyst.
摘要:
This invention provides a method for optimizing the administration of leptin receptor ligands to a mammal in need of such treatment. More specifically, this invention provides an improved method of delivering leptin receptor ligands to a mammal in need of such treatment comprising pulsatile or peak delivery of leptin receptor ligands to treat obesity and related conditions, including hyperglucocorticoidinemia, fertility or delayed puberty, and/or growth hormone deficiencies.
摘要:
Valved adaptors are disclosed permitting the introduction of a drug-containing vial in the delivery tube of an I.V. administration set. The adaptors have a three position operation characterized by a bypass mode, a dilution mode, and a delivery mode, the adaptors being manually changed from mode to mode. The disclosed adaptors include gravity operated valves, reciprocating spool valves, and rotating spool valves, each including a spike to penetrate the stopper of a vial and a vent to permit air to escape the vial as liquid is introduced to dilute the vial contents.
摘要:
The disclosure provides, among other things, the use of GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds may be exendins, exendin analogs, GLP-1 (7-37), GLP-1 (7-37) analogs (e.g., GLP-1 (7-36)-NH2) and the like. The GLP-1 receptor agonist compound may be exenatide.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for reducing the occurrence and severity of infectious diseases, especially infectious diseases in which lipid-containing infectious viral organisms are found in biological fluids, such as blood. The present invention employs solvents useful for extracting lipids from the lipid-containing infectious viral organism thereby creating modified viral particles with reduced infectivity and enhanced antigenicity. The present invention provides vaccine compositions, comprising these modified viral particles with reduced infectivity and enhanced antigenicity, optionally combined with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or an immunostimulant. The vaccine composition is administered to a patient to provide protection against the lipid-containing infectious viral organism. The vaccine compositions of the present invention include combination vaccines of modified viral particles obtained from one or more strains of a virus and/or one or more types of virus.
