  • Publication number: 20180236130
    Abstract: A method to regrow a protective layer over exposed/demineralized dentin that includes a step of identifying a subject having exposed/demineralized dentin. The demineralized dentin is contacted with a remineralization composition that includes an amelogenin and derived peptides, a chitosan, water, and a sufficient amount of a pH adjusting component such that the composition has a pH greater than about 6.0 such that dentinal tubules are occluded with apatite crystals and enamel is regrown on the dentinal tubules.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20130285453
    Abstract: A seamless power transfer apparatus comprising a solar grid and a utility power grid. The apparatus comprises a smart switch electrically connected to the solar grid and to the utility grid. The smart switch does not allow the solar grid to supply power to the utility power grid at any time.

  • Patent number: 8315996
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for configuring an application instance. A first path by which an application instance is configured to access a version of a resource is determined. Additionally, a determination is made as to whether a configuration associated with the application instance exists in a shared resource area. If the configuration does not exist, a base version of the resource is modified to generate a customized version. A second path is determined, and the customized version is stored thereat. If the configuration exists, the second path is determined such that the resource included in the configuration can be accessed thereat. A symbolic link having an origin of the first path and a destination of the second path is created. Using the present invention, multiple application instances can efficiently share customized versions of resources.
