Abstract: A semi-solid delivery vehicle contains a polyorthoester and an excipient, and a semi-solid pharmaceutical composition contains an active agent and the delivery vehicle. The pharmaceutical composition may be a topical, syringable, or injectable formulation; and is suitable for local delivery of the active agent. Methods of treatment are also disclosed.

Abstract: A fan type temperature control method and device are provided. The device includes a fan unit including a plurality of fans and cooling an apparatus to be cooled, power supplies (v1,v2) supplying power for the fans in the fan unit, and a fan control unit which controls the fans as follows: when temperature t of the apparatus is lower than critical temperature t1 of a first temperature detect switch (k01), all fans stop; when t is higher than t1 and lower than critical temperature t2 of a second temperature detect switch (k02), all fans rotate at half speed; when t is higher than t2 while lower than critical temperature t3 of a third temperature detect switch (k03), a first fan part (M1) rotates at full speed and a second fan part (M2) stops; when t is higher than t3, all fans rotate at full speed.

Abstract: Compositions of a cyclooxygenase inhibitor and a calcium channel antagonist in a liquid carrier. The composition may be administered the the urinary tract during urological diagnostic, interventional, surgical and other medical procedures. One disclosed composition comprises ketoprofen and nifedipine in a liquid irrigation carrier, and includes a solubilizing agent, stabilizing agents and a buffering agent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for generating non-human mammalian chimeric embryo. The method involves coculturing denuded non-human mammalian embryos with cells in an Eppendorf micro test tube. The chimeric embryo obtained is then transferred into a non-human recipient mammal so as to develop into a non-human chimeric fetus, non-human chimeric mammal, an embryonic stem cell-derived fetus or an embryonic stem cell-derived mammal.

Abstract: A system is designed to measure the concentration of a specific chemical composition of a fluid and is formed of a light generating device, a fluorescent light receiver, and a display. The light generating device emits an excitation light to cause a probe submerged in the fluid to emit fluorescent light, which is received by a photoelectric diode of the fluorescent light receiver and is than converted by the photoelectric diode into an electric current signal. The display receives the electric current signal, which is then converted by the display into the concentration of the specific chemical composition of the fluid. The information on the concentration of the specific chemical composition is exhibited on the display.
