Abstract: The present invention relates to novel derivatives that are suitable as precursors to compounds that are useful for imaging amyloid deposits in living patients, their compositions, methods of use and processes to make such compounds. The compounds deriving from these precursors are useful in methods of imaging amyloid deposits in brain in vivo to allow antemortem diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease by positron emission tomography (PET) as well as measuring clinical efficacy of Alzheimer's disease therapeutic agents. Furthermore, the present invention also discloses the precursor compounds in crystalline form.

Abstract: Novel morpholino compounds having the general formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is a straight or branched alkyl group containing 8 to 16 carbon atoms at the 2- or 3-position of the morpholino ring, and R.sub.2 is a straight or branched alkyl group containing 2 to 10 carbon atoms, substituted with a hydroxy group except in the alpha-position, the sum of the carbon atoms in the groups R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 being at least 10 and preferably 10 to 20; and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Compositions for the treatment of the oral cavity and especially the tooth surfaces containing the novel compound or a salt thereof, preferably from 0.1 to 5% by weight thereof. Use of the compounds to inhibit the formation of dental plaque or remove plaque already formed by application of the compound in an aqueous solution or a composition to the surfaces of the oral cavity, especially the surfaces of the teeth. Processes for the preparation of the compounds.

Abstract: Arrangement for cabinet with a door which can be opened at either of two opposing edges. At each of the opposing edges the door is hingedly connected with a side flap which when opened permits access to material stored in the cabinet. Each side flap is capable of being locked to the cabinet by means of two locking devices. When an arbitrary pair of locking devices is unlocked the door together with one side flap can be swung outwards from the cabinet.

Abstract: Aminoalcohol compounds and acid addition salts thereof, useful in the prevention and treatment of dental caries and periodontitis, are disclosed. Methods of preparing said derivatives, orally acceptable compositions containing said compounds, and a method of treatment therewith are also disclosed.
