Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention utilize chalcones to treat blood, bleeding, and/or bleeding disorders. As described herein, chalcones significantly reduce blood clotting time in normal/hemophilic blood and normal/hemophilic animal models. As also described herein, chalcones reduce blood clotting time and increase blood clotting efficiency without any apparent risk of immunogenicity or unwanted blood clots. As also described herein, chalcones reduce the inhibitory activity of antithrombin on thrombin-driven blood clotting, thereby increasing the effectiveness of the thrombin mechanism in clotting blood.

Abstract: For each of a number of regions of a label surface of a substrate that are to be optically written to form a human-readable image, a corresponding power level at which an optical beam is to impinge the region to optically write a desired mark to the region as part of the image is determined. The optical beam impinges the region by being switched on and off from a higher power level to a lower power level to achieve the corresponding power level on average. At least one of the following are adjusted: a number of times the optical beam is switched on and off, a length of time the optical beam remains on each time it is switched on, and a duty cycle of the optical beam while the optical beam is positioned over the region.

The optical beam impinges the region at a power level selected from at least the first power level and the second power level.
