Abstract: Provided is an ion generating apparatus, including a housing and an ion generating unit. A waterproof part is provided below an air outlet. The waterproof part includes a discharge port penetrating the waterproof part and in communication with an inside of the housing, and a guide part having a receiving space for receiving a liquid flowing in from the air outlet and guiding the liquid to the discharge port while bypassing an ion exhaust port. By providing the waterproof part below the air outlet to receive the liquid flowing in from the air outlet, the ion generating apparatus may not only prevent the liquid from entering the ion generating unit through the ion exhaust port to affect an ion generation, but also allow a liquid entering the inside of the housing to flow out of the housing along a path that does not come into contact with an electrical component.

Abstract: Disclosed are bis(thio-hydrazide amide) disalts, which are represented by Structural Formula (I): Y is a covalent bond or a substituted or unsubstituted straight chained hydrocarbyl group. R1-R4 are independently —H, an aliphatic group, a substituted aliphatic group, an aryl group or a substituted aryl group, or R1 and R3 taken together with the carbon and nitrogen atoms to which they are bonded, and/or R2 and R4 taken together with the carbon and nitrogen atoms to which they are bonded, form a non-aromatic heterocyclic ring optionally fused to an aromatic ring. Z is —O or —S. M+ is a pharmaceutically acceptable monovalent cation and M2+ is a pharmaceutically acceptable divalent cation. Also, disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a bis(thio-hydrazide amide) disalt described above. Further disclosed are methods of treating a subject with cancer. The methods comprise the step of administering an effective amount of a bis(thio-hydrazide amide) disalt described above.
