Abstract: A novel system for an iris of the human eye includes drying the tissue surface, applying colorant to the dried surface, and then drying the applied colorant. The system avoids tattooing, implanting, and corneal modification. Permanent results may be obtained. Colorants may be coatings or stains. Blown gas is controllably infused to maintain a constant pressure in the anterior chamber, and the blown gas is turned on and off by opening a path to the outside of the eye and closing such path, respectively.

Abstract: A novel system for coloring the sclera of a human eye, including steps of accessing the sclera, drying a portion of the sclera, applying one or more colorants to the dried portion of the sclera, drying the colorant, and closing access to the sclera. The system avoids tattooing, implanting, and corneal modification. Permanent results may be obtained. Colorants may be coatings or stains.

Abstract: A water bottle adapter (6) fits securely onto a water bottle (1) which is used to isolate the water within the bottle from a common water supply. The adapter (6) is fastened to a mating device by means of a threaded neck (7). The neck (7) includes two longitudinal tensioning ribs (37) that promote a retaining function between the neck (7) and any device that has been affixed to the neck (7). A pressure relief valve (13) having a valve stem (14) is formed within the lid (8) of the adapter (6) to permit the escape of air from the bottle (1) when in use. A series of ribs (19) is formed within a bore containing the valve stem (14) to dampen noise produced by the operation of the valve (13).

Abstract: There is provided an automated electrochemical device for generating a biocidal output solution, said device comprising: a flow-through electrochemical cell comprising an anodic chamber and a cathodic chamber for electrolysing an electrolyte to generate an anolyte solution and a catholyte solution; characterised in that the device further comprises: (i) a reservoir for storing catholyte; and (ii) a hydraulic circuit for recirculating catholyte from the reservoir to the anolyte on start-up of the cell, wherein input of catholyte of a compensating strength to the cell anodic chamber, is arranged so as to optimise the cell anolyte pH to produce a stable output solution at the start of the electrolysis process.

Abstract: A novel system for coloring tissues of the human eye, especially methods of coloring the iris, includes drying the tissue surface, applying colorant to the dried surface, and then drying the applied colorant. The system avoids tattooing, implanting, and corneal modification. Permanent results may be obtained. Colorants may be coatings or stains.

Abstract: A novel system for coloring the sclera of a human eye, including steps of accessing the conjunctiva, drying a portion of the conjunctiva, applying one or more colorants to the dried portion of the conjunctiva, drying the colorant, and closing access to the conjunctiva. The system avoids tattooing, implanting, and corneal modification. Permanent results may be obtained. Colorants may be coverings or stains.

Abstract: A method for suspending colorant in a subconjunctival space of a human eye, including steps of accessing the subconjunctival space, injecting colorant into the subconjunctival space, suspending colorant in the subconjunctival space, spreading the colorant into a desired pattern, and closing access to the subconjunctival space. The system avoids tattooing, implanting, and corneal modification. Permanent results may be obtained. Colorants may be suspensions or stains.

Abstract: A novel system for coloring the human eye is presented, including methods of coloring the conjunctiva on its internal or external surface, coloring the sclera, coloring the iris, suspending colorant in the subconjunctival space, and combinations of two or more of these methods. The system avoids tattooing, implanting, and corneal modification. Permanent results may be obtained. Colorants may be coverings, suspensions, or stains.

Abstract: A clip assembly (57) retains a ring structure (35) which contains a plurality of individual color coded rings (7). A hand held tool (3), such as a dental instrument having a shaft (6) may be marked with a colored ring (7) by inserting the shaft (6) through the aperture (64) of the ring and separating the ring from the structure (35) by a twisting or pulling motion. The clip assembly (57) and the structure (35) are protected from contamination by transparent covers (65, 66). A stand (67) may be used to retain the clip assembly prior to and after use, with or without the presence of the covers (65. 66). The stand can also retain a tape dispenser (68) which contains colored tape (31) as may be needed for marking instruments that are not suitable for labeling with a ring (7).

Abstract: A product seller site distributes on a pay for placement basis placed product with purchased product when the purchased product is delivered, where the placed product is associated with the purchased product by at least one specific characteristic. For example, the owner of a product funds an account and supplies product samples to be distributed to customers purchasing similar products. Further, the product owners bid or pay a fee to place their product with the customer. When the customer purchases a product, a search engine determines which products from a database of products available for placement meet the search criteria and offers to distribute the placement product with the purchased product. The search criteria comprise matching the purchased product with similar products to be placed with the purchased product and finding the highest bidder or fee from the group of matching placement products.
