Abstract: Various embodiments of pressure regulated beverage cartridges are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system includes a cartridge and a beverage preparation machine. The cartridge and machine can be configured such that, when the cartridge is received in the machine, a pressure of less than a limit value is maintained in the cartridge during the beverage preparation process, which can improve the flavor of certain beverages, such as brewed coffee beverages.

Abstract: The present invention provides an implant comprising an isotope capable of producing a dose of ionizing radiation upon exposure to a flux of low energy neutrons, and a method in which, after implantation, the implant is exposed to a flux of low energy neutrons to control or treat infections.

Abstract: A passive tensioning system is disclosed for composite material that is dispensed by a composite placement machine. A spool is mounted on a spool shaft and material on the spool is pulled from the spool and applied to a surface. The tensioning system has a drag brake on the spool shaft and a drag brake control for the drag brake. A dancer roll is mounted on a linear slide having a spring force and a slide control is provided for the linear slide. A control system continually varies the drag brake control and the slide control to control the tension of the composite material based on the instantaneous operating characteristics of the composite placement machine.

Abstract: Present embodiments generally related to a single-serve beverage cartridge for use with a beverage machine. In some embodiments, the cartridge includes a cup, a lid, and a beverage component disposed in the cup. The beverage component can include a soluble beverage component and a non-soluble beverage component. In certain instances, the beverage component in the beverage cartridge can include a first layer of non-soluble beverage component and a second layer of soluble beverage component. In other instances, the beverage component can include a first layer of soluble beverage component and a second layer of non-soluble beverage component. In other instances, the beverage component can include a first layer of non-soluble beverage component, a second layer of soluble beverage component, and a third layer of non-soluble beverage component. In other instances, the beverage component can include a mixture of soluble beverage component and non-soluble beverage component.

Abstract: This invention is concerned with 5-substituted[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidin-2-amines selected from those of Formula I, which are active as antiasthma agents.

Abstract: There is described a process for the preparation and separation of components from central nervous system tissue by sequential chromatography; wherein certain components contain proteins of a weight average molecular weight of 8,000 to 10,000 and are highly encephalitogenic while others have weight average molecular weights in the range of 2,000 to 4,000 and exhibit weaker encephalitogenic activity, and in addition, a method of treating experimentally induced diseases by administering said low molecular weight components is described.
