  • Patent number: 7477947
    Abstract: A system, a device and a method for electrically detecting a lack of saliva in an oral cavity of an individual and for electrically stimulating the oral cavity so as to induce production of saliva from at least one salivary gland are disclosed. The system includes a control device for detecting a measure of salivation in the individual and for delivering electrical impulses to the oral cavity of the individual, a check device for checking a state of the control device and for modifying at least one parameter of the control device, and, a computer device for exchanging information with the check device.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20020147424
    Abstract: A transdermal magnetic drug delivery system and method which can deliver, via a novel electrode design, multiple drugs in a controlled manner using a variety of methods including magnetophoreris, iontophoresis, sonophoresis, photophoresis and others. The combined use of these methods not only enhances transport but also allows for the optimum parameters for drug delivery to be realized. The drugs may be manipulated, tagged or doped with a magnetic carrire to increase their susceptibility to magnetophoresis and to provide a method for tracking their absorption in conjunction with biosensing.
