Publication number: 20180317454Abstract: The invention is a system and method for the reduction of stress and anxiety responses by animals to unfamiliar events or circumstances such as veterinary visits. The method includes progressive scent identification conditioning. An animal associates one or more pleasing fragrances or scents with pleasure and safety and thus a reduced level of stress/anxiety. This association persists for a sufficient period of time so the animal is able to better handle unfamiliar events/circumstances by maintaining a lower level of stress/anxiety. Scent association conditioning is achieved by presentation of a reward such as edible treats of different sizes and effective taste intensities when scent exposure occurs. The time between scent exposure and receipt of a treat is gradually increased during conditioning to reach an optimal or maximum period in which the animal can maintain a low level of stress/anxiety.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2017Publication date: November 8, 2018Inventor: Joseph P. Markham

Publication number: 20180317464Abstract: An improved structure of the aquarium filter includes a filter cloth made of nonwoven fabric with small pores and high density that is installed on the outermost layer of the filter, an activated carbon filter sheet that wraps within the filter cloth and can deodorize smell and filter impurities, and a filter net made of resin foam with large pores and low density that wraps within the activated carbon filter sheet. The filter is made of filter materials in multiple layers that are formed individually by one single process so that the production cost can be reduced. Furthermore, a support frame is installed on the aquarium. A support platform is set on the support frame on which the planting unit sits. The filter is placed on the uppermost support platform. Nutrients generated from the decomposition of fish excreta in the water are absorbed by plants.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2018Publication date: November 8, 2018Inventor: Chin-San Hsieh

Publication number: 20180317465Abstract: A genetically modified vertebrate is provided that has an enhanced sense due to an over representation of a predetermined odorant receptor. The vertebrate is genetically modified by introduction of DNA that comprises at least four sequential repeats of a sequence whose primary structure is at least 90% homologous with ACATAACTTTTTAATGAGTCT (SEQ ID NO: 1). The DNA causes a nearby odorant receptor coding sequence to be over represented in a singular gene choice fashion relative to a corresponding vertebrate that lacks the DNA.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 3, 2016Publication date: November 8, 2018Inventors: Paul Feinstein, Charlotte D'Hulst
