Abstract: A wavelength conversion member includes a substrate, a phosphor layer, and a ventilated blade. The substrate is configured to rotate based on an axis. The phosphor layer is disposed on the substrate. The ventilated blade is disposed on the substrate and has a pore density between 10 ppi and 500 ppi or a volume porosity between 5% and 95%.

Abstract: A wavelength conversion member includes a substrate, a phosphor layer, and a non-ventilated blade. The substrate is configured to rotate based on an axis. The phosphor layer is disposed on the substrate. The non-ventilated blade has a roughness between 5 ?m and 1.25 mm, or a specific surface area of the non-ventilated blade exceeds a geometric area of the non-ventilated blade by more than 10%.

Abstract: The present invention is directed toward particles for delivery of epinephrine to the respiratory system and methods for treating a patient in need of epinephrine. The particles and respirable compositions comprising the particles of the present invention described herein comprise the bioactive agent epinephrine, or a salt thereof, as a therapeutic agent. The particles are preferably formed by spray drying. Preferably, the particles and the respirable compositions are substantially dry and are substantially free of propellents. In a preferred embodiment, the particles have aerodynamic characteristics that permit targeted delivery of epinephrine to the site(s) of action.

Abstract: Particles which include a bioactive agent are prepared to have a desired matrix transition temperature. Delivery of the particles via the pulmonary system results in modulation of drug release from the particles. Sustained release of the drug can be obtained by forming particles which have a high matrix transition temperature, while fast release can be obtained by forming particles which have a low matrix transition temperature. Preferred particles include one or more phospholipids.
