摘要:
The present invention provides compositions useful in preparing and/or serving as antitoxins against Bacillus anthracis, the causative agent of anthrax. The present invention also provides polypeptides and polynucleotides relating to the capillary morphogenisis gene 2 (CMG-2), vectors containing the polynucleotides and polypeptides, and host cells containing related polynucleotide molecules, all used in association with the treatment of, or the research and development of treatments for anthrax. The present invention also relates to methods for identifying molecules that bind CMG-2 and molecules that reduce the toxicity of anthrax toxin. Finally, the present invention provides methods for treating human and non-human animals suffering from anthrax.

The present invention relates to mammalian anthrax toxin receptor polypeptides and polynucleotides encoding same as well as related polypeptides and polynucleotides, vectors containing the polynucleotides and polypeptides, host cells containing related polynucleotide molecules, and cells displaying no anthrax toxin receptor on an exterior surface of the cells-minus cell lines and animals. The present invention also relates to methods for identifying molecules that bind the anthrax toxin receptor and molecules that reduce the toxicity of anthrax toxin. Finally, the present invention provides methods for treating human and non-human animals suffering from anthrax.

The invention provides an ammunition carrier for retaining ammunition. The ammunition carrier includes a stationary carrier body portion disposed about a space in which to retain the ammunition; and a rotating carrier body portion disposed about the space and pivotally. attached to the stationary carrier body portion. The stationary carrier body portion and the rotating carrier body portion collectively form a cover assembly to secure the ammunition. The ammunition carrier further includes a locking mechanism, the locking mechanism pivotally attached to the rotating carrier body portion, the locking mechanism (1) engageable, in an engaged position, with the stationary carrier body portion so as to prevent rotation of the rotating carrier body portion relative to the stationary carrier body portion; and (2) disengageable, in a disengaged position, with the stationary carrier body portion so as to allow rotation of the rotating carrier body portion relative to the stationary carrier body portion.

A gel formulation is combined with a fungicidal concentrate which is a liquid mixture of about 1.2 to 16 ml parts by volume of ultra pure water having an electrical resistance of 16-26 megohms, total dissolved solids of less than 0.04 parts per million and a specific conductance of less than 0.10 mho with about 1.2 to 16 parts by volume of Willard Water as prepared in accordance with U.S. Pat. No. 3,893,943, together with one liter of a gel formulation ingredient containing 10% by weight urea, based on the weight of the gel formulation. The fungicidal liquid concentrate is applied directly to a fungal nail to soften the fungal nail and control the growth of fungi.

摘要:
A retractor for manipulating a vessel in a patient includes a working head shaped to define a working space in the tissue of a patient and at least a first manipulator for manipulating a vessel located proximate the working space, the first manipulator having a retracted position and an extended position. The first manipulator if disposed at least partially within the working space when the first manipulator is in the retracted position.

A surgical system that includes a surgical device comprising a tube having a first lumen and an opening disposed at a distal end thereof, the tube movable between a rear position and a forward position. A retractor comprising a shaft, a working head at a distal end of the shaft defining a working space, and at least one manipulator disposed within the working space. The retractor is releasably engagable with the surgical device, such that, when the retractor is engaged with the surgical device and the shaft is in the rear position, the tube is disposed at a location proximal to the at least one manipulator, and when the retractor is engaged with the surgical device and the tube is in the forward position the tube is disposed beneath at least one manipulator.
