Abstract: A method of separating oil-soluble pigment and water-soluble pigment from natural material using aerogels characterized in comprising the steps of: (A) immersing a natural material in a leaching solvent to extract a pigment; (B) mixing the leaching solution from which pigment is extracted in step (A) with aerogel to adsorb oil-soluble pigment to aerogels; (C) separating oil-soluble pigment adsorbed on the surface of aerogel in step (B); (D) drying and concentrating the pigment separated in step (C), enhancing a method of separating from natural material the initial substance for pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, etc. facilitating a safer and more efficient production process compared to the conventional separation method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device, and software and methodology associated with a portable Automated External Defibrillator (“AED”). The portable AED works with a mobile device and software, and includes two or more cardiac pads, a battery pack, and specialized capacitor. When connected to a patient in cardiac arrest, the AED contacts Emergency Medical Services, and records patient information to be transmitted for evaluation by medical providers. The AED is able to analyze cardiac rhythms, suggests administering one or more shocks to the patient in appropriate cardiac arrhythmia, and guides a user on proper CPR technique, if enabled. The AED software can alert other personnel via a mobile device app.
