Abstract: A composition for modification of wood products is disclosed. The composition contains a prepolymer formed by the reaction of a polyfunctional hydrophilic polymer of high molecular weight and a crosslinking agent. The composition may also contain a prepolymer formed by the reaction of a sugar and a crosslinking agent. Modification of the wood product may result in one or more of: improved stiffness, strength, surface hardness, dimensional stability, water resistance, flame retardancy, and biological resistance.

Abstract: A composition for surface treatment of timber and wood products that provides protection against insect damage to all surfaces without any need for a secondary insecticide treatment of one or more new, untreated surfaces generated by post-treatment processing operations including sawing, cutting, drilling, beveling, planing, sanding and/or a combination thereof, comprising one or more non-repellent insecticides.

Abstract: A method is described for producing an extract of Phyllanthus comprising the steps of: (a) extracting Phyllanthus components with a solvent; (b) fractionating the extract obtained in the preceding step on the basis of hydrophobicity; (c) collecting and combining fractions that correspond in hydrophobicity to elute fractions resulting from 10-50% methanol elution steps, wherein the elute fractions are obtained by low pressure vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC) using a C18 reversed-phase lipophilic column and a water/methanol gradient system, wherein the gradient system is based on an initial elution step of loading the column with 100% water, on intermediate elution steps with gradually decreasing water content and on a terminal elution step loading the column with 100% methanol; and (d) optionally drying the extract obtained in step (c).

Abstract: A method of reducing or inhibiting kinase activity of C-KIT in a cell or a subject, and the use of such compounds for preventing or treating in a subject a cell proliferative disorder and/or disorders related to C-KIT using a compound of the present invention: or a solvate, hydrate, tautomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The present invention is further directed to methods for treating conditions such as cancers and other cell proliferative disorders.

Abstract: The invention is directed to compounds of Formula I: wherein A, X, R2 and W are set forth in the specification, as well as solvates, hydrates, tautomers and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, that inhibit protein tyrosine kinases, especially c-fms kinase. Methods of treating autoimmune diseases; and diseases with an inflammatory component; treating metastasis from ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, stomach cancer, hairy cell leukemia and non-small lung carcinoma; and treating pain, including skeletal pain caused by tumor metastasis or osteoarthritis, or visceral, inflammatory, and neurogenic pain; as well as osteoporosis, Paget's disease, and other diseases in which bone resorption mediates morbidity including arthritis, prosthesis failure, osteolytic sarcoma, myeloma, and tumor metastasis to bone with the compounds of Formula I, are also provided.
