Abstract: A composition with one or more tetrahydrobenzotriazoles and one or more one or more tetrahydrobenzotriazole activating solvents, wherein the tetrahydrobenzotriazoles are solubilized in the activating solvents in an amount effective to inhibit corrosion of a metal or metal alloy which is corrodible in the presence of copper or copper corroding agents. Also a method of using this composition to inhibit corrosion of a metal component which has a metal or metal alloy which is corrodible in the presence of copper or copper corroding agents.

Abstract: A composition with a corrosion inhibitor component having one or more tetrahydrobenzotriazoles and one or more other triazoles; wherein the tetrahydrobenzotriazoles are in a weight ratio to the other triazoles such that the composition decreases the General Corrosion rate, as measured by copper electrodes in the presence of 10 ppm sodium hypochlorite, by at least about 0.05 mpy relative to a corrosion inhibitor component which is 100% of the other triazoles. Also, a method of using this composition to inhibit corrosion of a metal component which has a metal or metal alloy which is corrodible in the presence of copper or copper corroding agents.

Abstract: A method and system for measuring pulmonary function. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) providing or obtaining a measurement of a subject breathing an inert gas composition; (2) providing or obtaining a measurement of the subject breathing a replacement gas composition; and (3) extracting parameters from these two measurements. The system comprises: (a) a gas supply; (b) a subject interface; (c) an inert gas concentration measuring device, wherein the system; and (d) means for extracting parameters from the measurements by the inert gas concentration measuring device: (1) obtains a measurement with the measuring device through the subject interface of a subject breathing an inert gas composition supplied from the gas supply; (2) obtains a measurement with the measuring device through the subject interface of the subject breathing a replacement gas composition supplied from the gas supply; and (3) extracts parameters with the parameter extracting means from these two measurements.
Abstract: Dermatan sulfates and/or O-desulfated heparins useful in treating and preventing heparinoid-induced autoimmune responses, in particular heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) and its associated disease states. The dermatan sulfates comprise repeating disulfated and/or trisulfated disaccharide units of L-iduronic acid and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine. The O-desulfated heparins comprise heparin molecules selectively O-desulfated at the 2-O and/or 3-O positions of the uronic acid and glucosamine saccharide residues. Particularly effective dermatan sulfate HIT antagonists have a mean molecular weight of from about 2000 to about 10,000 Daltons.
Abstract: An organizer system comprising: (A) an organizer folder having front and back covers, optionally at least one page positioned between the front and back covers and at least one of the following components associated with at least one surface of the front or back covers or the at least one page: (1) a planner having planning diagram associated with the at least one surface, and at least one object that is repositionable on the planning diagram; or (2) at least one pocket for storing materials; (B) a self-standing folder holder having a receptacle for receiving at least one folder in a stored configuration; and (C) a carrier having a receptacle for receiving at least one holder in a stored configuration and a handle for grasping by the user.
