摘要:
Disclosed herein is a pharmacophore model for arthropod repellent activity and methods of making and using thereof. The pharmacophore comprises two hydrophobic aliphatic functions, one aromatic function and one hydrogen bond acceptor function. The pharmacophore model was made using a test set of arthropod repellent compounds. Also disclosed are arthropod repellent compounds identified by screening databases with the pharmacophore model. Also disclosed are methods of repelling arthropods from a surface or area. Compositions and formulations comprising the compounds of the present invention as well as objects having the compounds of the present invention are disclosed.

The present invention relates to protein matrix materials and devices and the methods of making and using protein matrix materials and devices. More specifically the present invention relates to protein matrix materials and devices that may be utilized for various medical applications including, but not limited to, drug delivery devices for the controlled release of pharmacologically active agents, encapsulated or coated stent devices, vessels, tubular grafts, vascular grafts, wound healing devices including protein matrix suture material and meshes, skin/bone/tissue grafts, biocompatible electricity conducting matrices, clear protein matrices, protein matrix adhesion prevention barriers, cell scaffolding and other biocompatible protein matrix devices. Furthermore, the present invention relates to protein matrix materials and devices made by forming a film comprising one or more biodegradable protein materials, one or more biocompatible solvents and optionally one or more pharmacologically active agents. The film is then partially dried, rolled or otherwise shaped, and then compressed to form the desired protein matrix device.

Combinations of hydrophilic and hydrophobic entities in a biodegradable sustained release implant are shown to modulate each other's rate of release. Formulations of a therapeutically active agent and modulator provide substantially constant rate of release for an extended period of time.

An improved rapidly disintegrating flavored film that quickly and completely disintegrates upon contact with mucosal tissue in the oral cavity of a human includes a hydroxypropyl cellulose, a modified starch and a flavor ingredient. The flavored films of this invention completely disintegrate upon contact with the mucosal tissue in less than a minute, and often in less than 30 seconds, whereas previously known flavored films typically do not complete dissolve, or do not dissolve as rapidly, upon contact with mucosal tissue in the oral cavity of a human. The flavored films of this invention may be advantageously employed as breath freshening films, and in food items to impart flavor and, optionally, to impart functional qualities to the food item.

The invention relates to an otorhinological delivery device comprising at least one pharmaceutically active agent. According to the invention the device comprises a core comprising said at least one pharmaceutically active agent wherein said core is made of an elastomer composition selected from the group consisting of poly(dimethylsiloxane), a siloxane-based elastomer comprising 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl groups attached to the Siatoms of the siloxane units, a siloxane-based elastomer comprising poly(alkylene oxide) groups and mixtures thereof, and a membrane encasing said core, said membrane being made of a same or a different elastomer composition than said core, said elastomer composition being selected from the group consisting of poly(dimethylsiloxane), a siloxane-based elastomer comprising 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl groups attached to the Siatoms of the siloxane units, a siloxane-based elastomer comprising poly(alkylene oxide) groups and mixtures thereof. The invention is characterized in that the pharmaceutically active agent is selected from the group comprising anti-allergic agents, anti-inflammatory agents, anti-fungicides, glucocorticoids and mixtures thereof.

摘要:
An agricultural item comprising a biodegradable polyhydroxyalkanoate copolymer comprising two randomly repeating monomer units. The first randomly repeating monomer unit has the structure: wherein R1 is H or a C1-2 alkyl, and n is 1 or 2; and the second randomly repeating monomer unit has the structure: wherein R2 is a C3-19 alkyl or a C3-19 alkenyl. At least 50% of the randomly repeating monomer units have the structure of the first randomly repeating monomer unit.
摘要:
The present invention relates to resorbable glass scaffolds for use in biological applications and methods for making same. Specifically, these scaffolds are composed of phosphate glass fibers, where the rate of dissolution into biological fluids is controlled by the length of time the glass is held above its melt temperature prior to spinning the fiber.
