Abstract: A pressure reducing valve includes a valve housing, plunger, pressure sensing cavity, and biasing member. The valve housing includes a valve inlet and valve outlet in selective fluid communication with each other. The plunger is in the valve housing and movable between a closed position and open position. The plunger is positioned downstream from the valve inlet and upstream from the valve outlet. The plunger includes a venturi and a channel. The venturi is within the plunger and has a venturi inlet and venturi outlet. The channel is within the plunger and is in fluid communication with the venturi. The pressure sensing cavity is in fluid communication with the channel. The biasing member exerts a biasing force on the plunger toward the open position. The channel is in fluid communication with the pressure sensing cavity to provide a fluid pressure that is lower than the outlet pressure during flow.

Abstract: Disclosed are compounds that are effective for selectively killing cancer cells. Compounds have been demonstrated to be especially effective for killing glioma cells, while exhibiting low toxicity to normal cells.

Abstract: Anti-aging process and method for delivering younger human DNA to tissues, through the periodic infusion (auto-transfusion) of previously harvested autologous younger stem cells, resulting in re-establishment of an earlier relative biological clock set-point, with respect to the number of cell generations-divisions.

Abstract: A backflow preventor that generally includes a modular fluid arrangement having a modular strut, a one-piece modular cage, a relief valve fluidly connected to the modular cage, and at least one in-line check valve removably housed in the modular cage. In operation, when backflow occurs, pressure in a chamber of the relief valve increases to provide a passageway for fluid to flow out of the modular cage, through the relief valve, to the environment. When the backflow stops, the pressure in the chamber decreases and the passageway closes, moving the fluid through the interior of the modular cage.

Abstract: Metallic vapor phase fuel compositions relating to a broad spectrum of pollution reducing, improved combustion performance, and enhanced stability fuel compositions for use in jet, aviation, turbine, diesel, gasoline, and other combustion applications include co-combustion agents preferably including trimethoxymethylsilane.
