  • Publication number: 20150284308
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods for preparing urushiol from plants including, for example, poison ivy or poison oak. The methods include extraction of plant material using a primary organic solvent more polar than ethanol, followed by a solvent extraction using substantially immiscible solvents having substantially different polarities, such as hexane and acetonitrile. The method can include further purification, such as by fractionation of solvent-extracted materials using a thiazole-derivatized silica gel chromatography medium. The extracts thus generated can exhibit greater purity, higher concentration, and greater stability than extracts made using previously-known methods. The extracts can be particularly suitable for use in immunotherapeutic methods, such as desensitizing individuals who normally develop allergic contact dermatitis attributable to poison ivy or poison oak.

  • Publication number: 20140143766
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for re-skinning a third party's application. A third-party application establishes a resource file package. The resource file package includes a resource file storage path and a mapping relation between them. A subject file package is established which shares the resource file storage path. The subject file package includes resource files for presentation to be replaced. To generate a re-skinning presentation the third-party application sends the resource ID for a resource file to be presented to an operating system; the operating system obtains a corresponding resource file storage path from the resource file package according to the resource file ID; and the operating system obtains the resource file to be replaced for presentation from the subject file packet according to the resource file storage path. The resource file to be replaced for presentation is sent to the third-party application and presented to generate the re-skinning presentation.

  • Patent number: 8545685
    Abstract: Provided is a cleaning process of producing lactic acid. Firstly saccharification liquid is prepared through saccharated materials, then fermented with nutritive materials and lactic acid bacteria, and liquid alkali is used to adjust the pH. The fermentation broth is filtrated with porous membrane, and the lactic acid bacteria in the interception liquid are then reintroduced into the porous membrane for recycling. The permeate from porous membrane is subjected to nanofiltration to be decolored and purified. The concentrated solution from nanofiltration and the cleaning liquid from fermentation tank and its affiliated equipment are filtrated and sterilized by using ceramic membrane, and then are reintroduced into the fermentation unit for recycling. The permeate from nanofiltration is then subjected to bipolar electrodialysis system to prepare lactic acid, and the liquid alkali produced at the same time is reintroduced into the fermentation tank for recycling.
