  • Publication number: 20170202757
    Abstract: Methods for preparing an eye serum formulation are disclosed. The methods include electrolyzing a saline solution having a salt concentration between about 0.01% and about 1.0% by weight using a voltage between about 0 V and about 30 V across an inert anode and a spaced apart inert cathode to generate a target mixture of chemically reduced and oxidized molecules within the saline solution, mirroring the target mixture of chemically reduced and oxidized species in the electrolyzed saline solution to the reduced species and reactive oxygen species found in a known biological system, adding a rheology modifier, adding a buffering agent, and adding a silicone oil. The target mixture of chemically reduced and oxidized molecules comprises one or more of hypochlorous acid, hypochlorites, dissolved oxygen, chlorine, hydrogen gas, hydrogen peroxide, hydrogen ions, hypochloride, superoxides, ozone, activated hydrogen ions, chloride ions, hydroxides, singlet oxygen, *OCl, and *HO—.

  • Publication number: 20160317577
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for treating skin conditions are provided, including, for example, cellulite, cell death, and decreased blood flow. The present invention includes a stable topical formulation prepared by electrolyzing a saline solution to generate a target mixture of chemically reduced and oxidized molecules within the saline solution. The target mixture of chemically reduced and oxidized species may be mirrored to the reduced species and reactive oxygen species found in a known biological system by measuring concentrations of reactive oxygen species in the electrolyzed saline. A rheology modifier and buffering agent may be added. The formulation is applied to a skin area affected by one or more skin conditions.

  • Patent number: 7863567
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, generating image data includes receiving coded aperture imaging sensor data collected according to coded aperture imaging and receiving Compton imaging sensor data collected according to Compton imaging. The coded aperture imaging sensor data and the Compton imaging sensor data are generated by a sensor system sensing radiation from a radiation source. A coded aperture imaging pixel value and a Compton imaging pixel value are determined for each pixel of an image. A combining function comprising addition is applied to the coded aperture imaging pixel value and the Compton imaging pixel value to yield a combined pixel value for each pixel. Combined image data is generated from the combined pixel values. The combined image data is configured to yield a combined image of the radiation source.

  • Publication number: 20060220700
    Abstract: A flip-flop (10) has a normal mode and a low power mode to save power. The flip-flop (10) has a master latch (14) and a slave latch (20). The slave latch (20) is used to retain the condition of the flip-flop (10) during the low power mode, where power is withdrawn from the master latch (14) but maintained on the slave latch (20). The slave latch (20) may use transistors with lower leakage characteristics than the transistors that make up the master latch (14). These lower leakage characteristics may be achieved by a higher threshold voltage and/or a thicker gate dielectric. Operating speed of the flip-flop (10) is maintained by implementing the slave latch (20) so that no logic gate or switching transistor is in the critical timing path. Instead, the slave latch (20) has an input/output terminal to tap into the signal path between the master latch and an output circuit (22).
