Patents Assigned to TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY SYSTEM, THE
  • Publication number: 20120077859
    Abstract: The present embodiment of the invention is generally directed to compositions comprising suspensions of poorly water soluble compounds recrystallized in nanoparticulate sizes ranging from 0.1 to 5 ?m. In addition, the embodiment of the invention is directed to methods for preparation and administration of these compositions to a patient for prevention and treatment of disease states. In particular, the embodiment of the invention is directed to compositions comprising suspensions of poorly water-soluble compounds, such as antimitotics and antibiotics, in nanoparticulates and methods of prevention and treatment of chronic disease states, such as cancer, by intraperitoneal and intravenous administration of such compositions.

  • Publication number: 20090056794
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a system and method for operating a device including embedded nanoparticles. In some implementations, the method includes selectively illuminating at least a portion of a device including material having embedded nanoparticles. The nanoparticles emit electrons in response to light at a certain frequency or above. At least one operating parameter of the device is adjusted to direct at least a portion of the emitted electrons.
