  • Publication number: 20080162497
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for sending a cellular text message to a system server through a data network, including an identification of a requested database record and a forward address. The system server then performs a database lookup or related search and sends an enhanced message or a file to the forward address, which could be a cellular phone, e-mail address, server, computer, mobile device, or any hardware or device associated with the intended recipient that is communicatively coupled to the system server.

  • Publication number: 20070056504
    Abstract: A method for producing a single crystal ingot includes steps of providing a first amount of polycrystalline material and a first amount of dopant material to form a first mixture having a first dopant concentration in a process furnace, increasing a temperature of the first mixture to provide a molten first mixture, providing a seed material to the molten first mixture, withdrawing the seed from the molten first mixture by a first distance to form a boule having a first length, providing a second amount of the polycrystalline material and a second amount of the dopant material to the molten first mixture to provide a molten second mixture having the first dopant concentration, withdrawing the first length of the boule from the molten second mixture by a second distance to form the boule having a second length, and removing the boule from the molten second mixture to form the single crystal ingot of uniform axial resistivity.

  • Patent number: 5667798
    Abstract: In a transdermal drug delivery system, encapsulation material used to coat drug granules controls the release of an active ingredient. The active ingredient is released into a water retaining matrix, which acts as a reservoir, and transdermal drug penetration is driven by the resulting concentration gradient. The delivery system is enclosed in a patch comprising a composite shell, which acts as an occlusive covering when attached to skin, thus enhancing the hydration of the skin area and fostering absorption of the drug. Visible change indicators incorporated into the system provide indicators at significant "landmarks" in the lifetime of the patch. Microcapsules used for the indicator may be formulated so that the penetration of moisture effects a color change at a time when the active ingredient is almost exhausted. This feature alerts to the user to the need for application of a replacement patch.
