Abstract: Systems and techniques for measuring process characteristics including electrolyte distribution in a battery cell. A non-destructive method for analyzing a battery cell includes determining acoustic features at two or more locations of the battery cell, the acoustic features based on one or more of acoustic signals travelling through at least one or more portions of the battery cell during one or more points in time or responses to the acoustic signals obtained during one or more points in time, wherein the one or more points in time correspond to one or more stages of electrolyte distribution in the battery cell. One or more characteristics of the battery cell are determined based on the acoustic features at the two or more locations of the battery cell.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods, pharmaceutical compositions and kits useful in treating female sexual dysfunction and the use of an estrogen agonist/antagonist for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction. The compositions are comprised of an estrogen agonist/antagonist as a first active ingredient and a cyclic guanosine 3?,5?-monophosphate elevator as a second active component and a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle, carrier or diluent. The compositions and methods of treatment are effective while substantially reducing the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with estrogen administration.
