摘要:
New ampholyte biomaterial compounds containing ampholyte moieties are synthesized and integrated into polymeric assemblies to provide hydrophilic polymers exhibiting improved biocompatibility, haemocompatibility, hydrophilicity non-thrombogenicity, anti-bacterial ability, and mechanical strength, as well as suitability as a drug delivery platform.

A method of treating a wide variety of heretofore considered unrelated ailments comprises delivering electricity through a circuit in the body. The circuit includes at least four nerves leading from at least two of the patient's extremities to various nerve roots adjacent the spinal column. Electrical energy from an electrical interferential therapy device is delivered though electrodes on the extremities adjacent the nerve endings until symptoms of the diagnosed ailment ameliorate. Sending impulses from the periphery to the central nervous system, appears to help the body manufacture various neuropeptides and other chemicals, which control the essential basics of the body's health and well being.
摘要:
Substrates may be coated with copolymers of N-vinyl pyrrolidinone and aryl ketones. Processes are described for making the copolymers at high molecular weight with the ketones randomly dispersed on the copolymer.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for the extraction of sesquiterpene lactones from the plant Tanacetum parthenium specifically using polar organic solvents and the use of such extracts in pharmaceutical products. It has been found that by utilization of an extraction procedure in accordance with the current invention, a significantly greater amount of the sesquiterpene lactone parthenolide is extracted from Tanacetum parthenium than is the case when using petroleum spirit as the primary extractant, the solvent usually used in previous studies.
摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition which comprises particles of a finely divided pharmaceutically acceptable water soluble diluent coated with microcrystalline particles of nifedipine, the majority of which have a particle size of 100 micrometers or less in the presence of polyvinyl-pyrrolidone, the polyvinylpyrrolidone being present in an amount of from 10 to 90% by weight based on the weight of the nifedipine. The incorporation of polyvinylpyrrolidone in an amount of less than the amount of nifedipine significantly slows the dissolution of nifedipine from the finished solid dosage form.
摘要:
A diagnostic device in an electrical interferential treatment regime applies different pulse frequencies in one selection of electrode placement and determines the change of blood flow in response to the change in pulse frequency in an attempt to determine an optimum or workable set of parameters. The device includes electronic storage to record a series of tests and their results and a communication link. The communication link enables a professional caregiver to determine whether the parameter determinations, made at a location remote from the professional's office, such as at the residence of the patient, were conducted and were conducted correctly. The communication link also enables the professional to determine whether the treatments were conducted and conducted correctly.

摘要:
Certain embodiments include carbonate esters of rapamycin at position 42 that are synthesized by a lipase catalyzed regio-specific process. These compounds or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are useful in the treatment of organ and tissue transplant rejection, autoimmune disease, proliferative disorder, restenosis, cancer, or microbial infection.
摘要:
A slow release formulation to be administered to humans or animals, comprising primary granules which contain an active ingredient and are in a secondary matrix of a water soluble/dispersible slow release material, the granules themselves comprising particles containing the active ingredients and in a primary matrix of a water soluble/dispersible slow release material.Optionally the formulation comprises a binder phase of a water insoluble slow release material having embedded therein secondary granules comprising the secondary matrix containing the primary matrix granules.The water soluble/dispersible material may be a polysaccharide and acacia and low viscosity methylcellulose are exemplified, as well as alginate and gelatine.
摘要:
A preparation for percutaneous administration of nitroglycerine, said preparation comprising nitroglycerine incorporated in a cream base in an amount not less than about 0.05% by weight based on the total weight of the preparation. The composition may also contain other medicaments, the bioavailability of which is enhanced by the nitroglycerine. The action of the preparation against for example angina may be brought about by having an appropriate amount of nitroglycerine or as additional medicament another medicament active against angina. The preparation may contain an hydroxyalkylcellulose which may provide, in combination with a waxy component in the cream, for example a higher aliphatic alcohol, a prolonged release effect. The preparation has advantages particularly as regards bioavailability over prior uniphasic ointments.
