Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to measure the concentration of volatile corrosion inhibitors (VCI) in a liquid, optionally, in an injection system, pipe casing of an underground pipe, or other enclosed system where VCI is present.

Abstract: An apparatus for storing a medicament delivery device, the apparatus comprising: a container defining a storage cavity having an opening, the storage cavity configured to receive a syringe pre-filled with medicament; an absorbent disposed in the cavity, the absorbent at least partially hydrated with a liquid solution; and a seal member at least selectively connected with the cavity to form a seal that is at least substantially gas impermeable.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for identifying a lost person and providing contact information for a third part to directly communicate with their guardian. The method and apparatus provided an imparting of indica bearing the cellular phone number of the guardian to the potentially lost person. A temporary tattoo is employed to carry the indica on a planar member affixed to the skin or by affixing the planar member to the potentially lost person. Verification instructions as to the guardian identity are also provided by instructions to dial the responding guardian when in the presence of the third party or to inspect the cellular phone of the guardian for its displayed number.

Abstract: A method and device for identifying a lost person and providing contact information to directly communicate with their guardian. Indicia applied to the skin of a child or other person who might get lost includes the telephone number for directly contacting the guardian. The indicia may also include the name of the person on which it is imparted and directions on contacting a third party if the phone number displayed receives no response. When used with the cellular phone number of the guardian, the indicia can also include instructions to identify the responding guardian using that unique number by matching it to the cellular phone of the responding guardian. The indica may be applied to the skin using a tattoo or other means to impart the indicia temporarily to the skin.

Abstract: The invention provides liposomal particle compositions, which incorporate a lipophilic biodegradable polymer, such as amino acid-containing polyester amide (PEA), polyester urethane (PEUR), and polyester urea (PEU), throughout the particles to stabilize the composition for in vivo delivery in of an incorporated biologic agent. For oral delivery, a biologic, such as insulin, is conjugated directly to the polymer. Lipids in the particle are selected to further stabilize the composition during fabrication and digestion, providing sustained delivery of the biologic with native activity. Methods of making and using the invention compositions to administer the biologic agent in vivo are also included.
