  • AGENT DELIVERY SYSTEM CAPABLE OF SELECTIVELY RELEASING AN AGENT
    Publication number: 20130202582
    Abstract: The present invention provides a composition for selectively delivering an active agent to a portion of an organism. The composition comprises first and second polymer portions, having first and second functional groups attached as a side-chain thereto, respectively. The first and second functional groups form cross-links between the first and second polymer portions. The cross-links are capable of being broken by a substance of the organism, thereby resulting in release of the active agent. The composition provides a novel means for controlling the selective release of the active agent in the organism.

  • Solid freeform fabrication methods
    Patent number: 5900207
    Abstract: A fused deposition process is used to form three-dimensional solid objects from a mixture including a particulate composition dispersed in a binder. The article is formed by depositing the mixture in repeated layers of predefined thickness, with each layer solidifying before the next adjacent layer is dispensed. Following formation and a binder removal step, the article may be at least partially densified to achieve preselected properties. The process permits three-dimensional articles to be formed relatively quickly and inexpensively, without the need for molds or other tooling.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 20, 1997
    Date of Patent: May 4, 1999
    Assignees: Rutgers, the State University Old Queens, Stratasys, Inc.
