  • Fluid transfer system for applications including stabilizing biological fluids
    Patent number: 11813605
    Abstract: A sample vessel includes a biological sample container and a sample stabilizer container. The biological sample container is configured to receive a biological sample and to store the biological sample. The sample stabilizer container is configured to contain a stabilizer associated with the biological sample. The sample stabilizer container is assembled from a stabilizer vial, an adaptor, and a fluid channel. The stabilizer vial is configured to store an amount of the stabilizer. The adaptor is configured to secure the biological sample container and the stabilizer vial such that the biological sample container and the stabilizer vial form the sample vessel. The fluid channel extends through the adaptor from the stabilizer vial to the biological sample container, the biological sample moving from the biological sample container into the stabilizer vial through the fluid channel.

  • ANTIFUNGAL NYLON-3 POLYMERS AND COMBINATION THERAPY USING THEM TO TREAT FUNGAL INFECTIONS
    Publication number: 20180185408
    Abstract: A method and corresponding pharmaceutical composition for inhibiting the growth of fungi. The method uses an antifungal composition containing as the active ingredient one or more nylon-3 copolymers having a formula: or a salt thereof, wherein: each R is independently hydrogen or C1-C6-alkyl; each R1, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen or substituted or unsubstituted C1-C6-alkyl; each R2 is C1-C6-alkylene; “A” is hydrogen or an amino-protecting group; “B” is hydroxyl or a carboxy-protecting group; and “X,” “Y,” and “Z” are positive numbers.
