  • Patent number: 8116985
    Abstract: An automated blood or bodily fluid sampling machine for collecting, measuring and monitoring real time samples from test animals during dosing of the animals, automatically provides real-time adjustment of dosing during testing. Such automated blood or bodily fluid sampling is performed in tandem with implanted physiological monitoring devices to monitor biological and physiological parameters in restrained or freely-moving test animals. The real-time feedback provides for dosing adjustment within testing protocols.

  • Patent number: 6805118
    Abstract: A pulmonary dosing system and method for supplying to a patient a predetermined amount of respirable therapeutically active material. The system comprises a patient interface to introduce the material into the patient's lungs. The patient interface is connected to a flexible inhalation tube and a flexible exhalation tube. The exhalation tube is connected to a filter having an outlet connected to atmosphere. The inhalation tube is connected to an apparatus for providing pulsed amounts of the material entrained in filtered atmospheric air. A control unit operates the pulmonary dosing system in accordance with operator inputs regarding the number of patent exhales between pulses, and pulse length. The exhaust filter and the apparatus for providing pulsed amounts of the therapeutically active material may be enclosed in a containment case and the patient's interface may comprise a mouth tube-mask combination when the therapeutically active material comprises at least one toxic drug.
