Abstract: System and method are provided for generating a Postnet bar code with a closed system metering device. Before an indicium is printed on a mailpiece, a scanner is used to scan recipient address information printed on a mailpiece. Using the scanned information, the metering device determines the Postnet bar code corresponding to the scanned information. A check is then made to determine if the recipient address information has changed from the scanned information. If it has not changed, the metering device prints the postal code on the mailpiece. When the recipient address information has changed, the metering device generates a corrected postal code and prints the corrected postal code and the corrected address on the mailpiece.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of water-soluble photo-stable silver thiosulfate ion complexes that are antimicrobially active and inhibit the activity of metalloproteinases. The present invention describes incorporation of these complexes into medical devices and/or wound dressings to prevent or treat symptomology related to microbial infections and/or conditions of excessive tissue destruction. In particular, these complexes may be useful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and/or osteoarthritis in the prevention and treatment of articular bone joint degradation and subsequent reductions in joint swelling and pain.
