  • Publication number: 20200268683
    Abstract: A high-throughput screening methods for identifying candidate anticancer medicinal agents is described herein. The candidate anticancer medicinal agents are arylfluorosulfate compounds derived from phenolic compounds. The method involves in situ generation of the arylfluorosulfate compounds in multi-well plates by reaction of phenolic compounds in DMSO with a saturated solution of SO2F2 dissolved in a solvent such as acetonitrile, in the presence of an organic base, followed by reaction of generated fluoride ion with trimethylsilyl chloride to form volatile trimethylsilyl fluoride. Solvents, organic base, and silyl compounds are then removed, in vacuo, to afford the arylfluorosulfate compounds suitable for biological screening in cancer cell lines without further purification.

  • Publication number: 20200268695
    Abstract: A non-enzymatic debridement agent that is less expensive, less cytotoxic, and more effective than enzymatic and sharp surgical debridement of eschar material. The non-enzymatic debridement agent is based on a formulation of detergent with a high critical micelle concentration and a denaturing agent along with an optional optimized buffer. The non-enzymatic wound debriding agent is able to dissolve eschar material in under one week. The buffer or ointment may contain an optimized pH, salt concentration, reducing agent, and other components that aid in the debridement of eschar material from chronic wounds and burn wounds. The non-enzymatic debridement agent can be formulated as an ointment, liquid rinse under pressure, and/or as a combination product with an advanced wound dressing that can act as a sink to remove the solubilized eschar material from the surface of the wound to assist in the debridment and proper healing of wounds.

  • Publication number: 20200268701
    Abstract: Beta-hydroxybutyrate mineral salts in combination with medium chain fatty acids or an ester thereof such as medium chain triglycerides were used to induce ketosis, achieving blood ketone levels of (2-7 mmol/L), with or without dietary restriction. The combination results in substantial improvements in metabolic biomarkers related to insulin resistance, diabetes, weight loss, and physical performance in a short period of time. Further, use of these supplements to achieve ketosis yields a significant elevation of blood ketones and reduction of blood glucose levels. Use of these substances does not adversely affect lipid profiles. By initiating rapid ketosis and accelerating the rate of ketoadaptation, this invention is useful for the avoidance of glucose withdrawal symptoms commonly experienced by individuals initiating a ketogenic diet, and minimizes the loss of lean body mass during dietary restriction.
