Abstract: A non-stinging composition for removing make-up from the area near the eye comprising cleanser, buffering agent, water, chlorhexidine digluconate, and phenethyl alcohol.

Abstract: A method for making a cosmetic pencil having a lead of solvent-based cosmetic composition.The leads are packaged in an airtight container, such as a plastic bag and stored in a freezer at temperature no higher than 0.degree. for 12 to 168 hours. The leads are then stored at room temperature for at least two hours and unpackaged. Then the leads are encased in grooved slates to form an assembly which is wrapped with airtight wrapping.

Abstract: Method and means for vaccinating a mammal using a convex nozzle with an elongated tip. The mammal's alar fold is pushed aside by the tip so that vaccine is deposited behind the alar fold. Vaccine is then dispensed through the nozzle.

Abstract: A pilfer-proof container for injectable fluid. An inner seal having an opening is fixedly secured to the neck of a bottle to hold a stopper. An outer seal covers the opening and is removably attached to the inner seal with non-flaking, non-rebondable adhesive.The sealing system allows inspection of the stopper after the inner seal has been attached.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for safely destroying aerosol containers are disclosed. The movement of the container is restrained. Inert media is disposed about a point of puncture, and the container is punctured at the point of puncture.

Abstract: An injectable formulation for the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of labetalol, its isomers and mixtures thereof is provided which has enhanced stability properties.

Abstract: A highly pH- and color-stabilized parenteral formulation is provided comprising an aqueous solution of a salt of an aminoglycoside containing an allylic amine and having a pH between 5.0-7.0.

Abstract: A prefilled disposable syringe having a barrel, hub, and needle with a plunger rod/protector attached to the outer surface of the barrel near the hub by flexible protrusions from the inner surface of the plunger rod/protector. The flexible protrusions frictionally engage the outer surface.

Abstract: This invention relates to contact lenses having an oxygen gas permeability constant of at least ##EQU1## comprising homopolymers and interpolymers formed by the polymerization of monomers comprising at least one alkyl styrene monomer having at least one C.sub.1 or higher alkyl group on the aromatic ring and improved surface wettability and to the method of making such contact lenses utilizing ultraviolet (UV) and chemical treatment.

Abstract: A sterilizer for use in sterilizing articles removably received therein, includes first thermal insulating means with a receiving cavity formed therein; cover means including a second thermal insulating means, the cover means being movable with respect to the first means for selectively covering said cavity; heating means received within the cavity and defining recess means for removably receiving therein an article to be sterilized, the heating means having a preselected volume for relatively slowly dissipating heat; and power control means for selectively applying electrical power to the heating means for heating the heating means, and for automatically cutting off the power to the heating means in response to a first predetermined temperature being reached by the heating means, the combination of the heating means and the first and second insulation means resulting in a relatively slow rate of heat loss from the heating means for enabling the temperature of the heating means not to fall below a second pred

Abstract: This invention relates to ultraviolet absorbing lenses, particularly corneal contact lenses, comprising a polymeric shaped body having an ultraviolet absorber dispersed substantially uniformly throughout said body and being in a steady state with respect to extraction thereof from said body by an aqueous medium, and to the method of making such lenses.

Abstract: Method and means for vaccinating a mammal using a convex nozzle with an elongated tip. The mammal's alar fold is pushed aside by the tip so that vaccine is deposited behind the alar fold. Vaccine is then dispensed through the nozzle.

Abstract: Compositions for cleaning and priming a surface comprising a solution of titanium acetylacetonate; alkanol having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; alkanol selected from methylethylkeytone, methylisobutylketone, acetone and their mixture; and water.The compositions, which perform both cleaning and priming in a one-step operation, cure quickly allowing rapid painting.

Abstract: Vulcanizable ethylene-vinyl acetate compositions, a process for preparing thermoset products by injection molding and crosslinking said compositions, and the articles of manufacture produced therefrom.

Abstract: Reprocessable thermoplastic graft copolymers of propylene polymer and ethylene copolymer are herein described. These graft copolymers are prepared by heating the propylene polymer and ethylene copolymer in the presence of select peroxides in order to graft the propylene polymer onto the ethylene copolymer.

Abstract: A dielectric composition devoid of filler and resistant to water treeing comprising ethylene polymer, antioxidant for said polymer, and effective amounts, as a water treeing inhibitor, of at least one organo silane of the following formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen or C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl; Y is C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 alkylene or C.sub.6 to C.sub.18 substituted or unsubstituted arylene; R.sub.2 is C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 alkyl, C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 alkoxy, C.sub.6 to C.sub.18 substituted or unsubstituted aryl, C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 acyloxy, C.sub.6 to C.sub.18 substituted or unsubstituted aryloxy; R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are independently selected from C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 alkoxy, C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 acyloxy or C.sub.6 to C.sub.18 substituted or unsubstituted aryloxy.
