Abstract: Compositions and methods for preventing sporadic neoplasia of the colon are provided. The compositions provided are based on administration of acetylsalicylic acid.

Abstract: A method for promoting prostate health in a subject comprising administering a dose of calcium to the subject. Particularly provided is a method for reducing the risk of prostate carcinomas, comprising administering a dose of elemental calcium effective to reduce the risk of prostate cancer. In an example, 1200 mg of elemental calcium (supplied in 3000 mg of calcium carbonate) administered twice daily resulted in decreased risk of prostate cancer.

Abstract: A method for promoting prostate helath in a subject comprising administering a dose of calcium to the subject.

Abstract: A method for promoting colon health in a subject comprising administering a dose of calcium to the subject that is effective to reduce carcinogenesis. Particularly provided is a method for reducing the risk of recurrence of colorectal adenomas, comprising administering a dose of calcium carbonate effective to promote colon health. In an example, 1200 mg of elemental calcium (supplied in 3000 mg of calcium carbonate) administered once or twice daily resulted in decreased risk of recurrent colorectal adenomas in patients with a history of colorectal adenomas.

Abstract: Methods for coating acoustical surfaces without substantially clogging the pores and reducing the sound absorption characteristics. The compositions applied to the surfaces of the acoustical materials in the coating method comprise an aqueous mixture containing a disinfectant, a pigment such as titanium dioxide, a quaternary ammonium compound of the following formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is an aliphatic hydrocarbon containing from 16 to 20 carbon atoms, R.sub.2 is an alkyl group containing from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and R.sub.3 is selected from the group consisting of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, and an air freshener.
