  • Patent number: 11839658
    Abstract: The present invention relates to conjugates of aminoglycosides and terpenoids, in particular sesquiterpenoids. Furthermore, the present invention relates to nano-assemblies formed by the inventive conjugates and to a method for producing the conjugates and/or the nano-assemblies. The present invention also relates to the inventive conjugates and nano-assemblies for use in therapy, in particular for use in the treatment of infectious diseases. Particularly preferred embodiments of the present invention relate to farnesylated aminoglycosides and nano-assemblies thereof, in which farnesol and its derivatives do not only function as carrier for the aminoglycosides but do themselves have pharmaceutical activity upon cleavage of the conjugate, in particular quorum sensing inhibitory activity.

  • Patent number: 11798010
    Abstract: Improved systems and methods for database management using data normalization and defragmentation techniques are provided. At least one exchange processor in communication with an exchange computer system receives market data from the exchange computer system, processes the market information, and transmits the market data to a master processor. The master processor receives the market data, processes the data using at least one normalization process to generate normalized data including an intra-day file and an archival file, and stores the intra-day file and the archival file in the master database. The master processor transmits the intra-day file and the archival file to the at least one regional processor.
