Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing a passive wireless repeating system in order to provide an increased wireless signal inside an enclosed space. The apparatus and method comprise mounting a directional donor antenna outside an enclosed space to provide a clear line of sight to a source of wireless signals, mounting a serving antenna within the enclosed space to provide an increased wireless signal inside an enclosed space, and an electrical connection connect between the donor antenna and the serving antenna. The serving antenna is mounted within an enclosed space to provide occupants of the enclosed space with reception of the cellular signals.

Abstract: An aqueous pour-on formulation for localized external application to animals comprises an aqueous carrier, an effective amount of a water-insoluble anti-parasitic agent suspended or dispersed in the aqueous carrier, and a colored dye to enable the application to be observed. Preferred water-insoluble agents include pyrethroids, organophosphorus compounds, formamidines, thiazoles and avermectins. Use of an aqueous system avoids skin reactions sometimes found when non-aqueous solvent systems are used.

Abstract: The gellation of polysaccharide gums such as guar or locust bean gum is inhibited by gelatin hydrolysates, at alkaline pH. Formulations of gum, gelatin hydrolysate and alkaliniser are reconstituted by shaking with water, and are easily inbibed. The inhibition is reversed by pH change in the stomach allowing gellation to occur. The formulation is useful in treatment of hypercholesteraemia, gastric disorders and as an adjunct to insulin therapy.
