Publication number: 20230160149Abstract: Compositions and methods are presented in which aragonite, and especially oolitic aragonite particles are used as infill material in an artificial turf structure or as sub-growth substrate for natural grass. Advantageously, oolitic aragonite particles provide: a superior microporous surface for effective water saturation to impart thermal control and environmental compatibility; ammonia neutralization of urine by reducing urea hydrolysis with the free calcium presented in the aragonite particles; and aragonite particle uniformity allowing for reduced compaction and desirable water draining.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2023Publication date: May 25, 2023Inventors: Harold Meherg, Anthony Myers, Patrick Soon-Shiong

Patent number: 11383988Abstract: Disclosed herein are personal care and/or cosmetic compositions, comprising a carrier and oolitic aragonite beads having an average diameter between 10 nm to 10 mm. Also disclosed herein are methods of reducing plastic contamination and/or pollution comprising making a cosmetic or personal care composition, wherein at least a portion to all (100%) of the plastic microbeads in the cosmetic or personal care composition are replaced with oolitic aragonite. Also disclosed herein are a milling system and milling methods for producing oolitic aragonite particles having a clean top size in which the particles are screened to remove any oversized particles. Additional uses include drug-loaded aragonite particles for therapeutic drug delivery and chromatography media.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2020Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Assignees: Nant Holdings IP, LLP, Calcean Minerals and Materials, LLCInventors: Anthony Myers, Alyson Myers, Harold Meherg, Patrick Soon-Shiong
