The present invention is further directed to a method of controlling a pest comprising applying a composition of the present invention to an area in need of pest control.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds Formula (I): wherein Q, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are as defined herein. The invention further relates to compositions comprising said compounds, and methods of controlling weeds using said compounds and/or compositions.

Abstract: A nerve regeneration device comprising a bioresorbable conduit and a matrix contained therein having elongate pores aligned with the longitudinal axis of the conduit. The matrix comprises collagen, fibronectin, laminin-1, and laminin-2, wherein the amount, by weight, of laminin-1 or laminin-2 is greater than the amount of fibronectin in the matrix.

Abstract: The present invention provides a microemulsion mixture, comprising a microemulsion and an active ingredient, wherein the microemulsion comprises a water phase composite, comprising a water solution and a moisturizer; an oil phase composite; and a surfactant composite; and the active ingredient is the substrate of cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme. The microemulsion of the present invention inhibits the expression of the cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme so as to improve the efficacy of the active ingredient in the microemulsion mixture. The present invention further provides a method of using the microemulsion mixture, a pharmaceutical microemulsion mixture comprising the microemulsion mixture, and the method for treating psoriasis comprising administering the microemulsion mixture to a subject in need thereof.
