Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an oil-in-water emulsion containing at least one hygroscopic ingredient and an edible oil. The emulsion has a water activity of less than about 0.6. The emulsion may be incorporated into an oral dosage form, including a capsule oral dosage form. The ingredients provided in the emulsion are capable of improving the health or well-being of a human or animal.

Abstract: A connectable floor tile has a flexible, top layer, a flexible, middle layer or core, and a flexible, bottom layer. The combination of the top layer and bottom layer has sidewall portions having opposed marginal perimeter portions. The sidewall portions have an interior sidewall surface that abuts the middle core. The central portion defines a land that has a support surface. A plurality of spaced-apart cleats extend upwardly to respective distal surfaces and define channels therebetween.

Abstract: An integrated quality assurance (QA phantom) for radiotherapy is provided that includes a cubic housing having a raised topology feature and laser alignment marks on an exterior surface of the cubic housing that is adjacent and perpendicular to the anterior surface, an extendable leg disposed on a edge of the housing, where the housing rests on a treatment couch surface when the leg is in the retracted state, and the housing rests on the treatment couch in a tilted position when the leg is in the deployed state, and a rotational stage disposed within the housing that includes at least one radiofrequency beacon, where the rotational stage includes a rotation actuator that is external to the cubic housing, where the invention enables verification of radiotherapy an optical surface monitoring system, a rotational verification of the radiotherapy optical surface monitoring system, and verification of a radiofrequency beacon tracking system.
