  • Publication number: 20030092652
    Abstract: The present invention, as noted above, relates generally to the incorporation of plasmid into a conventional dosage form, and more particularly to the production of a single-vial, homogenized, plasmid/polymer complex with desirable physical characteristics. Methods of making, storing and using such a complex are also provided and described in detail below. Such products and methods will provide more convenient and cost-effective complexes, which will be protected against chemical degradation and/or physical aggregation of its components and will provide for relative ease of administration. Thus, the present invention provides a more efficient complex for plasmid delivery and a method of incorporation of that plasmid into a conventional dosage form.

  • Patent number: 5742297
    Abstract: Apparatus and method combine, in real time, weather radar data in digital format from multiple radar sites into a mosaic covering a regional or national area (e.g., the continental United States). Such apparatus and method are implementable as computer software that can be run on a general purpose computer such as a personal computer. Preferably, a database of "lookup tables" are used to project individual radar data bins directly to a grid of the desired coordinate system for that mosaic. Using these lookup tables, each of a plurality of radar data bins is converted to a corresponding grid location or box in a mosaic image. While each radar data bin is mapped to a grid box for the mosaic, not every such grid box within the coverage area of the radar may receive such a data bin.
