  • Patent number: 7723334
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for treating humans suffering from, or preventing a human from suffering, a physiological or psychiatric disease, disorder, or a condition where inhibiting reuptake of norepinephrine is a benefit are disclosed. The compositions comprise a compound having a pharmacological selectivity of serotonin (Ki)/norepinephrine (Ki) of at least about 5000. Examples of such compounds include reboxetine, and more preferably optically pure (S,S) enantiomer of reboxetine. The methods generally include administration of a therapeutic amount of such compositions. Also disclosed are preparations of a medicament from the composition, and uses of the composition in a manufacture of the medicament to treat a human suffering from, or preventing a human from suffering, a physiological or psychiatric disease, disorder, or condition.

  • Patent number: 5626489
    Abstract: A sealed connector assembly is provided for interconnecting two or more electrical wires. A dual-durometer body includes a relatively rigid plug portion and a relatively resilient sealing portion, with corresponding channels in the portions for receiving the wires. A conductive contact element is mounted on the resilient plug portion of the body and is adapted to electrically interconnect the wires. A relatively resilient sealing cover is adapted to telescope with the body and to seal the rigid plug portion and the contact element. The body and cover have complementary interengaging convolutions to retain the body and cover in an interengaged sealed condition.

  • Patent number: 5586905
    Abstract: An electrical connector assembly is provided for terminating an insulated electrical wire. The assembly includes a housing having a wire-receiving opening adapted to receive the insulated electrical wire. The housing is defined by two housing halves which are relatively movable between an open condition for insertion of an insulated wire into the opening and a closed condition. A terminal is mounted on the housing and has an insulation displacement slot positioned in the opening adapted to displace the insulation of the wire and electrically engage an inner conductor of the wire. Opposing flexible portions of the housing halves provide strain relief to the insulated electrical wire by gripping the wire substantially entirely thereabout when the housing halves are in their closed condition.
