Abstract: A composition comprising an INTEROMONE® is described for the modification of undesirable or harmful stress-related behaviors or other behaviors or physiology in a variety of vertebrate species, as well as methods of using the compositions in vertebrates from a species different than the species in which the INTEROMONE® is a naturally occurring pheromone.

Abstract: The present disclosure is drawn to a thermal inkjet printhead stack with an amorphous thin metal protective layer, comprising an insulated substrate, a resistor applied to the insulated substrate, a resistor passivation layer applied to the resistor, and an amorphous thin metal protective layer applied to the resistor passivation layer. The amorphous thin metal protective layer can comprise from 5 atomic % to 90 atomic % of a metalloid of carbon, silicon, or boron. The film can also include a first and second metal, each comprising from 5 atomic % to 90 atomic % of titanium, vanadium, chromium, cobalt, nickel, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, rhodium, palladium, hafnium, tantalum, tungsten, iridium, or platinum. The second metal is different than the first metal, and the metalloid, the first metal, and the second metal account for at least 70 atomic % of the amorphous thin metal protective layer.

Abstract: The present disclosure is drawn to amorphous thin metal films and associated methods. Generally, an amorphous thin metal film can comprise a combination of four metals or metalloids including: 5 at % to 85 at % of a metalloid selected from the group of carbon, silicon, and boron; 5 at % to 85 at % of a first metal; 5 at % to 85 at % of a second metal; and 5 at % to 85 at % of a third metal wherein each metal is independently selected from the group of titanium, vanadium, chromium, cobalt, nickel, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, rhodium, palladium, hafnium, tantalum, tungsten, iridium, and platinum, wherein the first metal, the second metal, and the third metal are different metals. Typically, the four elements account for at least 70 at % of the amorphous thin metal film.

Abstract: The present disclosure is drawn to amorphous thin metal films and associated methods. Generally, an amorphous thin metal film can comprise a combination of three metals or metalloids including: 5 at % to 90 at % of a metalloid selected from the group of carbon, silicon, and boron; 5 at % to 90 at % of a first metal selected from the group of titanium, vanadium, chromium, cobalt, nickel, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, rhodium, palladium, hafnium, tantalum, tungsten, iridium, and platinum; and 5 at % to 90 at % of a second metal selected from the group of titanium, vanadium, chromium, cobalt, nickel, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, rhodium, palladium, hafnium, tantalum, tungsten, iridium, and platinum, wherein the second metal is different than the first metal. Typically, the three elements account for at least 70 at % of the amorphous thin metal film.

Abstract: A device or collar having a matrix into which an interomone is incorporated in an amount from between about 0.001% and about 5% by weight of the device is described for the modification of undesirable or harmful stress-related behaviors or other behaviors of physiology in a variety of vertebrate species over an extended period of time, as well as methods of using the device to modify behaviors of a variety of vertebrate species over an extended period of time.
