Abstract:
Improved processes for the preparation of tetra-O-benzyl protected catechin, for the coupling of the tetra-O-benzyl protected catechin or epicatechin with a C-4 activated, tetra-O-benzyl protected epicatechin for the galloylation of the epicatechin-(4β,8)-catechin or -epicatechin dimer-the dimer digallates, and for the deprotection (i.e., debenzylation) of the protected epicatechin dimers and protected epicatechin dimer digallates are disclosed.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to sterile gelling agents, which retain their physico-chemical properties so that they can be used in drug delivery systems. Also described are the processes for obtaining a sterile gelling agent(s).
Abstract:
The present invention is directed toward a method for fabricating low-defect nanostructures of wide bandgap materials and to optoelectronic devices, such as light emitting sources and lasers, based on them. The invention utilizes nanolithographically-defined templates to form nanostructures of wide bandgap materials that are energetically unfavorable for dislocation formation. In particular, this invention provides a method for the fabrication of phosphor-less monolithic white light emitting diodes and laser diodes that can be used for general illumination and other applications.
Abstract:
A mobile telecommunications system includes within a serving system database entries that associate the identifier of a mobile unit, which could be a cellular telephone or a personal communications service (PCS) device, with a plurality of directory numbers. The mobile unit identifier may be a mobile identification number (MIN) or international mobile service identifier (IMSI), for example. The system may store this association within a home location register (HLR), within a mobile switching center (MSC), or in both. In the process of terminating a telephone call the system employs supplemental information to determine which of the plurality of directory numbers associated with the mobile unit's mobile identifier is to be employed for the purposes of the telephone call being terminated. The supplemental information may be the current location of the mobile unit, for example.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of prostaglandin compounds having the formula (I): wherein A is selected from the group consisting of C1-C6 alkyl groups; C7-C16 aralkyl groups wherein an aryl portion thereof is unsubstituted or substituted with one to three substituents selected from the group consisting of C1-C6 alkyl groups, halo and CF3; and (CH2)nOR′ wherein n is an integer from 1 to 3 and R′ represents a C6-C10 aryl group which is unsubstituted or substituted with one to three substituents selected from the group consisting of C1-C6 alkyl groups, halo and CF3; B is selected from OR″ and NHR″ wherein R″ is C1-C6 alkyl groups; and represents a double bond or a single bond, is disclosed. Novel intermediates are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A specimen kit having a tiny chamber is disclosed for a specimen preparation for TEM. The space height of the chamber is far smaller than dimensions of blood cells and therefore is adapted to sort nanoparticles from the blood cells. The specimen prepared under this invention is suitable for TEM observation over a true distribution status of nanoparticles in blood. The extremely tiny space height in Z direction eliminates the possibility of aggregation of the nanoparticles and/or agglomeration in Z direction during drying; therefore, a specimen prepared under this invention is suitable for TEM observation over the dispersion and/or agglomeration of nanoparticles in a blood.
