  • Patent number: 11207331
    Abstract: Neuro-enhancing agents, compositions and methods are disclosed herein. Preferred neuro-enhancing agents of the present invention include progesterone and metabolites of progesterone, such as 3?-hydroxy-5?-pregnan-20-one (THP). These agents yield neuro-enhancing effects on neural cells that include neural progenitor and/or stem cells, whereby the agents stimulate mitosis of neural progenitor cells, stimulate neurite growth and organization, protect against neural loss, or one or more of these neural processes. Thus, the neuro-enhancing agents, compositions and methods disclosed herein are useful to reverse or prevent neurological disease or defects associated with neural loss or degeneration, such as Alzheimer's disease, neurological injuries, including injuries resulting from radiation therapy, and age-related neurological decline, including impairments in memory and learning.

  • Patent number: 8940086
    Abstract: Process for making an antibacterial coating includes the following steps. A solution containing titanium dioxide particles and a dispersant is prepared. A mechanical stirring method is employed to prepare a preliminary titanium dioxide dispersed solution. An ultrasonic agitation method is employed to prepare a nanometer titanium dioxide dispersed solution, an average particle size of the titanium dioxide particles being less than or equal to 200 nanometers. Lastly, the nanometer titanium dioxide dispersed solution is mixed with a papermaking coating to prepare an antibacterial coating.

  • Patent number: 6460195
    Abstract: Health short trousers comprise a trouser body composed of a front and a rear cloths. A female buckling element is joined on a right cloth to be adjusted for joining a male buckling element on a left cloth. Two female buckling elements of a left and a right buckling bands are joined at crotch portions of two trouser legs of the rear cloth, respectively. Two male buckling elements of the left and right buckling bands are joined at crotch portions of two trouser legs of the front cloth, respectively. An upper air bag is joined at the trouser top in the trouser body. Lower air bags are joined at thigh portions in the trouser body. All the air bags are connected to an inflator having a control switch. A first vibrator is joined on the rear cloth. A second vibrator is joined on the front cloth.
