Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating a human infected with Crohn's disease comprising enterally administering to the individual in need of such treatment an effective amount of a composition comprising 4,4′-methylenebis-(tetrahydro-1,2,4-thiadiazine)-1,1,1′,1′-tetraoxide, commonly known as taurolidine.
Abstract: The present invention provides the use of a tocopherol or a derivative thereof as a solvent and/or emulsifier for substantially insoluble and sparingly soluble biologically active agents, especially in the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions. Such compositions are particularly suitable for transmucosal, and especially intranasal or rectal administration, or administration via the oral cavity.
Abstract: A method of treating a wound comprising minimizing pressure on newly formed tissue around the perimeter of the wound by applying within the borders of the wound, a multi-layer laminate having a non-stretchable wound contact layer, a core layer comprising an absorbent material and a stretchable outer surface layer.
Abstract: Process for forming an autodeposition coating on a metallic substrate by applying an autodepositing composition from a motile source thereof such as by spraying or by treating the surface with a continuous stream of the autodepositing composition.
Abstract: There is disclosed a method for depositing a diamond or diamond-like carbon film on at least one substrate employing a hydrocarbon gas and at least one gas which preferentially removes by chemical sputtering other forms of carbon, especially graphite from said film to thereby obtain useful carbon film coated products.

Abstract: New polymers are disclosed which absorb or emit photons in the visible or ultraviolet spectrum. The polymers when bound to ligands or receptors are useful as reagents for the detection of substances in physiological fluids. Also disclosed are methods of preparing said polymers and reagents and methods of employing said reagents in immunoassay systems.
Abstract: An exercising device having at least one platform member and at least two pedals pivotably mounted to one end of each platform member and spaced at the other end from the platform member by springs. For best results, the space between the inclined pedals and the platform member is substantially filled with a crushable, energy-absorbent, resilient material thereby providing cushioned resistance when foot pressure is applied.
