  • Fullerene pharmaceutical compositions for preventing or treating disorders
    Patent number: 6777445
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for treating a disease, comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a fullerene. The diseases treated comprise bacterial and viral diseases such as those cause by Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, Dengue 2 virus and viral encephalitis. The fullerene is administered in vivo in an amount of about 0.001 to about 100 mg/kg of body weight of the subject.

  • Fabrication method of graded organic junction
    Publication number: 20040031958
    Abstract: A fabrication method for graded organic junction by adding an interfacial fusing layer between two organic layers is disclosed. Said interfacial fusing layer has its glass transition temperature lower than the neighboring organic layers, and said fusing layer will cause smooth interdiffusion and mixing of neighboring layers to form a graded organic junction when annealing above its glass transition temperature Tg. The process of interdiffusion can be monitored with optical measurement device on real time basis. The light emitting diode (LED) component containing graded organic junction thus produced has higher luminescence efficiency and lower operation voltage in comparison with conventional components.

  • Method for treating neuronal injury with carboxyfullerene
    Patent number: 6265443
    Abstract: A method of treating neurotoxic injury, where the injury is the result of the release of oxygen-derived free radicals, is disclosed. The method utilizes carboxyfullerenes as free radicals scavengers to reduce the damage caused by the free radicals.
