Abstract:
The present invention relates to substituted tetracycline compounds and related methods for increasing the antifungal activity of an antifungal agent. The methods include administering to a subject an effective amount of a substituted tetracycline compound in combination with an antifungal agent such that the subject is treated for the fungal associated disorder.
Abstract:
A system and process that selectively provides lifting assistance during the concentric phase and possibly during the eccentric phase during lifting of weights for rehabilitation or training, the system being programmable to provide a variety of exercise programs dedicated to a particular user, and the system monitoring the progress of the user during the exercise to selectively respond to certain trigger conditions.
Abstract:
The present invention relates, at least in part, to the use of substituted tetracycline compounds for regulation of expression of nucleic acids operably linked to a tetracycline operator system. The invention pertains to compounds used in a regulatory system which utilizes components of the Tet repressor/operator/inducer system of prokaryotes to regulate gene expression in cells. Use of certain substituted tetracycline compounds, as featured in the methods of the invention, result in improved dose-response results when compared to those for e.g., tetracycline and doxycycline. Certain methods of the invention thus allow for enhanced control of the Tet repressor/operator/inducer system in regulating gene expression in cells.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of making an industrial fabric comprising the following steps: -applying a radiation-curable powder onto the surface of a fabric, melting the powder such that the powder forms a layer on the fabric surface and directing radiation at said surface layer so as to cure the constituent material of said coating layer.
Abstract:
Disclosed in this specification is a decal assembly comprising a decal support, a releasable covercoat, a heat activatable layer, and an ink layer. The ink layer forms a digital image. The heat activatable layer has a high adhesion to a ceramic substrate at high temperatures and a low adhesion to the substrate at lower temperatures. Thus the adhesive properties of the decal are activated by heat. The resulting image has excellent adhesion to the substrate and resists the effects of washing.
