  • Publication number: 20240353992
    Abstract: Implementations generally relate to an emoji visualizer. In some implementations, a method includes generating at least one emoji identifier (ID), wherein the at least one emoji ID is digitally signed with a private encryption key, and wherein the emoji ID is associated with a user. The method further includes displaying an emoji visualizer on a client device, wherein the emoji visualizer is a user interface for customizing background patterns for emoji IDs, and wherein the emoji visualizer comprises a window and a plurality of controls. The method further includes displaying the at least one emoji ID in the window of the emoji visualizer. The method further includes receiving one or more commands based on the plurality of controls of the emoji visualizer. The method further includes generating a background pattern for the at least one emoji ID, wherein the background pattern is based on the one or more commands.

  • Publication number: 20220218629
    Abstract: Compositions include epinephrine fine particles, including epinephrine nanoparticles or nanocrystals and epinephrine microparticles or microcrystals, and methods for therapeutic use of the compositions for the treatment of conditions responsive to epinephrine such as a cardiac event or an allergic reaction, particularly anaphylaxis. The epinephrine fine particles can be incorporated into orally-disintegrating and fast-disintegrating tablet pharmaceutical formulations and can significantly increase the sublingual bioavailability of epinephrine, and thereby reduce the epinephrine dose required.
