Abstract: A composition for oral delivery of a poorly absorbed drug is disclosed. The composition includes the drug, an enhancer for increasing absorption of the drug through the intestinal mucosa, a promoter, which alone does not increase absorption of the drug through the intestinal mucosa, but which further increases the absorption of the drug in the presence of the enhancer, and optionally a protector for protecting the drug from physical or chemical decomposition or inactivation in the gastrointestinal tract. Illustrative enhancers include sucrose fatty acid esters, and illustrative promoters include aminosugars and amino acid derivatives, such as poly(amino acids). Illustrative protectors include methylcellulose, poly(vinyl alcohol), and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone).

Abstract: An aqueous solution suitable for injection into a mammal in need thereof includes an inorganic mercury (II) containing compound present in an amount between 0.1 nanomole and 50 millimoles Hg2+ where the solution is sufficiently stable such that there is no precipitation from the solution for at least thirty days of a visable precipitate containing at least some of said mercury. In one embodiment, a buffer which stabilizes the pH of the solution at a desired pH between 3.0 and 7.0 is provided. In another embodiment, at least one salt is provided in amounts which provide sufficient ionic strength to the solution and coordination ligand to prevent precipitation of the mercury from the solution.

Abstract: Plastic films, fibers and articles are provided long-term antimicrobial activity with a combination of certain phenolic and inorganic antimicrobial agents. The plastic films, fibers and articles with antimicrobial activity exhibit superior resistance to discoloration, may be processed at high temperature, and maintain physical properties upon weathering, especially upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and composition for destroying or inhibiting proliferation of microbes using oxidative fluorinator compounds. Fluoride salts that do not dissociate completely in aqueous solutions, such as tri- or tetravalent transition metal fluorides, inert gas fluorides, or tri- or tetravalent rare earth fluorides, are effective antimicrobial agents even at levels up to about 20 ppm, when used alone or in conjunction with a strong oxidizer.

Abstract: Improved methods for detecting lesions in dense breast tissue are disclosed. The methods of the invention generally feature administration to a subject of an LHRH antagonist in an amount and for a period of time sufficient to reduce the density of breast tissue prior to generating an image of the breast tissue, for example by mammography, to detect a lesion in the breast tissue. Packaged formulations for reducing breast density in a subject prior to generating an image of the subject's breast tissue, comprising an LHRH antagonist packaged with instructions for using the LHRH antagonist to reduce breast density in a subject prior to imaging the breast tissue, are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel veterinary topical compositions, methods of making the compositions, and methods of using the compositions in the treatment of bone, muscle and connective tissue injuries, as well as respiratory ailments, in animals, particularly horses, dogs, and goats. The compositions comprise isopropyl alcohol, mercuric chloride and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), and may further comprise herbs. Light training can typically be resumed beginning about 24 hours after applying the composition to the injured area of the animal.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method of making a chemical composition, the formula for the chemical composition, and the method of applying the chemical composition to animals, specifically horses. The chemical composition uses isopropyl alcohol, mecuric chloride, chlorophyll, comfrey and peppermint. Dye can be added to the chemical composition.The method of making the chemical composition includes dissolving the comfrey in the isopropyl alcohol, filtering, and then sequentially adding mecuric chloride, chlorophyll, and peppermint. If desired, dye is added after the peppermint.The method of applying the chemical composition to an animal includes the sedation of the animal, brushing the area to be treated with the chemical composition two times with the second time 12 hours after the first application, keeping the animal dry, and exercising the animal 24 hours after the application.
