Abstract: This invention relates to an aqueous polymer composition and to films formed from this aqueous composition. The aqueous composition may be used in a method for removing contaminate material from a substrate. The aqueous polymer composition may comprise: water; and at least one water-soluble film forming polymer. In one embodiment, the aqueous composition may further comprise at least one chelating agent and/or at least one surfactant. The aqueous polymer composition may be applied to a contaminated substrate or to a clean substrate which is subjected to subsequent contamination. The aqueous composition may be dehydrated and/or the polymer may be crosslinked to form a film. When applied to a contaminated substrate, the film may combine with the contaminates. When applied to a clean substrate, the contaminate material may subsequently contact and adhere to the film.

Abstract: The invention relates to apparatus (A) for injection of therapeutic agents into surrounding lumenal tissue, for example, to treat urinary incontinence and gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Abstract: The present invention provides a resorbable corneal button comprised of a biodegradable polymer which is capable of supporting the growth and expansion of endothelial cells on it surface for use in transplantation healthy corneal endothelial cells to cornea tissue in need of a transplant and a method of using same.

Abstract: This present invention describes methods and compositions useful for the reconstruction of various soft tissue features such as lips, areola, and many other features by taking a mold of the skin feature to be replaced, such as the areola, prior to surgical resection, re-creating the size and shape of the soft tissue feature, for example, the nipple and areola, and making a polymer or biopolymer scaffold that is biocompatible, has the ability to allow the epithelization of the skin cells over the polymer, the capability of cell integration into the body of the scaffold, as well as the capability of infiltration of surrounding nerve fibers into the substance of the scaffold, so that the patient may have the benefit of a reconstructed soft tissue feature that not only has the same size and shape and appearance as the native tissue, but also has functional sensation.

Abstract: The dietary supplement for wellness includes in a combination ofL-arginine, ginseng, ginkgo biloba, and damiana. The unit dosage is in a capsule or a tablet form or as an aqueous composition. The unit dosage may include an amount of antioxidant vitamins, vitamin B complex, and minerals sufficient to provide up to about 100% to about 200% of the percent daily values of the antioxidant vitamins, vitamin B complex, and minerals upon administering an appropriate quantity of the unit dosages to achieve a desired daily dosage. The daily dosage may be in an amount of up to about 600 ml. of an aqueous composition and may be administered as a beverage. The composition may be administered daily to a subject for a time sufficient for sexually arousing the subject more easily than without administration of the combination. The daily dosage is administered to the subject for a time sufficient to improve the quality of orgasm for the subject and/or to improve the frequency of desire to engage in sexual activity.
