Patent number: 7396925Abstract: A solid phase synthetic method is disclosed in which the usual solid phase synthetic steps are carried out and the spent solid phase support is reacted to form a volatilizable compound upon cleavage of the reaction product from the solid phase support. The cleaved product is then separated from the volatile compound by volatilization of that compound. Exemplary solid supports that form a volatilizable compound are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2006Date of Patent: July 8, 2008Assignee: Mixture Sciences, Inc.Inventors: Jeanick H.

Patent number: 7204367Abstract: A unique dispensing package easily, quickly and economically encases decorative light strings within a thin walled, flexible plastic tube. The plastic tube is provided to the user as a longitudinally compressed hollow column encased in the dispensing package. As a string of lights is passed through the hollow column, the tube is expanded and dispensed onto the string. The string of lights is thereby protected against damage and dust. The plastic tube also prevents tangling of the light string, permitting greater convenience for storage and for reuse.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2004Date of Patent: April 17, 2007Inventors: Ryan L.
