Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus for sterilization, decontamination, and antimicrobial therapeutic treatment, which may include a dispensing device to cover a person, plant, animal, surface, enclosure, room or other structure or area with an antimicrobial solution. Radiation sources may expose the antimicrobial agent to a certain wavelength of radiation. The combination of the solution and the radiation may create a synergistic reaction that causes an effect greater than the radiation or solution separately. The same reaction creates a residual antimicrobial effect. A container, area or passageway including an dispensing device a solution so that a person, plant, animal or object is covered or saturated with an antimicrobial solution.

Abstract: Described herein are various methods, systems, and apparatus for reducing and eliminating biofilms from hydrocarbons. A combination of oxidizing agents and radiation of certain wavelengths forms a synergistic reaction. The synergistic reaction generates EMODs, which are effective in reducing microbial count and eliminating or blocking biofilm formation, particularly in anaerobic environments. This synergistic reaction has a relationship to EMOD creation and has a detrimental effect on Microbial Contamination (MC), Microbial Influenced Corrosion (MIC) and biofilm creation. MC, MIC and biofilm can be eliminated or greatly reduced with the treatment methods in or on equipment including pipelines, storage tanks, and refinery processing equipment.

Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus for providing sterilization, decontamination, and therapeutic treatment may be provided. These may include a misting, vaporizing, spraying, foaming or other dispensing apparatus to cover a person, a surface, and enclosure, a room or other structure with an antimicrobial solution. Radiation sources, such as lights, may be utilized to expose the antimicrobial solution to a certain wavelength of radiation. The combination of the antimicrobial solution and the certain wavelength of radiation may create a synergistic reaction that causes an effect greater than the radiation or solution separately. A container or passageway including an apparatus dispensing a solution so that an object or person is saturated with an antimicrobial solution. The person or object is then exposed to a certain wavelength of radiation that creates a synergistic reaction between the solution and the radiation.

Abstract: According to an exemplary embodiment, a catheter assembly may be provided. The catheter assembly may include: an elongated, tubular catheter body having a proximal end, a distal end, and a centrally-disposed lumen extending therebetween; a covering attached to the distal end of the catheter body, the covering defining a generally spherical shaped tip; at least one ancillary lumen disposed within the catheter body and extending between the proximal end and the distal end thereof; at least one light-emitting element configured to emit light of a predetermined wavelength through the ancillary lumen; and at least one light source that provides light of a predetermined wavelength to the at least one light-emitting element. The catheter assembly may emit certain wavelengths of light that, when combined with a target therapeutic solution, initiates a synergistic reaction.

Abstract: Methods for treating acne vulgaris include providing a solution having a peroxide compound, the solution having an antimicrobial effect for reducing bacteria that cause acne vulgaris; topically administering a therapeutically effective amount of the solution to the patient; and once administered, exposing the solution to a wavelength of light that creates a synergistic antimicrobial effect with the solution and enhances the antimicrobial effect of the solution, thereby further reducing or eliminating the bacteria that cause acne vulgaris. The methods may decrease lesions and associated inflammation in patients infected with acne vulgaris.

Abstract: A retainer, system and method of tattoo removal including treating a tattooed region of skin with an oxidizing or bleaching solution activated by certain wavelengths of light may be provided. The method of tattoo removal may include applying a layer of removal solution to a tattooed region of skin; regulating a temperature of the layer of removal solution with a temperature control element; and exposing the layer of removal solution to a light source of pre-determined wavelength. Light of certain wavelengths may improve or “supercharge” the effects of certain pharmaceuticals or target chemicals and agents, creating a synergistic effect that may break down tattoo ink molecules and eliminate the appearance of tattoos in the skin of humans or other animals.
