摘要： Baldness or hair loss has been treated using pharmaceutical drugs and/or hair transplant surgery. The present invention relates to an improved method for treating baldness. In one aspect, there is provided a method for inducing hair follicle formation in a dermal layer lying beneath an outer skin surface, comprising delivering inductive dermal sheath cells and/or inductive dermal papilla cells directly into the dermal layer using a controlled delivery device. Delivery of the inductive cells need not be into pre-existing pores. Use of a controlled delivery device for the treatment of baldness is a further aspect of the invention.

摘要： The present invention is based on the discovery that when a tooth primordium is inserted into a mammalian jaw and tooth formation follows, new alveolar bone around the new tooth forms. The present invention is based on the idea of stimulating new tooth formation via the implantation of tooth primordia at selected places in the jaw (e.g. at four points in the molar regions) to result in the formation of bony protuberances which could facilitate denture retention. The teeth may then be removed from the jaw of the patient to leave the new alveolar bone.

摘要： Tissue equivalents are produced by applying a solution of collagen without cells to a permeable membrane, gelling to produce a collagen gel on the membrane, applying a mixture of collagen and a contractile agent to the collagen gel, gelling the mixture and allowing the resultant gel to undergo radial contraction which is controlled by the collagen gel on the membrane. A suitable contractile agent is fibroblast cells. A skin tissue equivalent is produced by disposing human epidermal cells on the contracted collagen gel and allowing epidermalization to occur. A nutrient medium can be supplied to the cells. An absorbent member may be disposed adjacent the permeable membrane opposite the collagen gel on the membrane. The permeable membrane can be the bottom of an inner well disposed in an outer well for containing a nutrient medium in contact with the membrane. The nutrient medium may be contained in the outer well in an agarose gel in contact with the membrane.

摘要： A computer system includes a main memory that is able to make use of DRAM memory devices having a relatively high level of bad cells (hard faults). An EDC circuit is provided which uses combinatorial logic to perform a BCH code type of error detection and correction. A primary feature is the recognition that due to use of high density integrated circuits--gate arrays--it is no longer necessary to use sequential logic to decode the multiple-bit error correcting codes. An EDC with 128-bits of data and a check bit field 41-bits wide, using a BCH code, constructed in ASIC sea-of-gates technology using about 87,000 logic gates, can correct 5-bits in error and can detect 6-bits in error. By using multiple-bit EDC in the controller for main memory, it is no longer necessary that all DRAM devices be ostensibly "perfect." A certain density of non-functional memory cells can be tolerated, yet the memory system will still return perfect data. The added cost of multiple-bit EDC, including the added cost of extra storage for the check bits and the EDC circuit itself, is more than compensated by reduced cost of the DRAMs. In a addition the computer system includes a solid-state disk type memory for a computer system is able to make use of DRAM memory devices having a relatively high level of bad cells (hard faults). An EDC circuit is employed to perform a Reed-Solomon code type of error detection and correction. A primary feature is the recognition that it is no longer necessary that all DRAM devices be ostensibly "perfect." A certain density of non-functional memory cells can be tolerated, yet the memory system will still return perfect data. The added cost of multiple-bit EDC, including the added cost of extra storage for the check bits and the EDC circuit itself, is more than compensated by reduced cost of the DRAMs. A preferred data formatter circuit to convert between symbol and word data is also described.
