Abstract: Compound formulations include gadusol or gadusporine that can be used as topicals, such as sunscreens or filters that protect human and animal skin against harmful light like UVA, and UVB, cosmetics, and skin care products. In some examples, gadusol or gadusporine are ?0.5% w/w, 0.5-2.0% w/w of the compound formulation. Other compound formulations include gadusol or gadusporine at >2.0% w/w of the compound formulation.

Abstract: A system for detecting and analyzing electrical activity in the anatomy of an organism underlying an electrode array provides signals corresponding to electrical activity adjacent each electrode. Such signals are correlated to the underlying anatomy of the organism and representative outputs presented through various types of output devices. Such outputs may include variations in coloration or other qualities in correspondence with representations of underlying anatomical structures. The system includes novel electrode structures (200, 224, and 284) and methods for producing and attaching electrode arrays (240 and 280) to the organism. The exemplary form of the invention is used in connection with the diagnosis of muscle activity in the lower lumbar regions of humans. Levels of muscle activity detected are analyzed by correlation with the muscular structures underlying the electrode array. Forms of the invention may be used in other applications.
