  • Patent number: 11020479
    Abstract: A method for production of solid water particles for homeopathy uses principles of quantum physics to from a concentrated solid water particle solution. A homeopathic ingredient solution is diluted in purified water in an inert gas environment. The dilution occurs as infinitesimal doses, in which the solution is repetitively diluted in water past the point where few molecules from the solution remain. An electrical field is applied to align the water molecules for formation of a large clump of solid water particles. Alternating phases of ultrasonic vibrations break down the large clump into small clusters of solid water particles. The vibration is followed by periods of rest, whereby the small clusters grow into successively larger clumps by absorbing water molecules. The vibrations and resting are repeated in cycles until a desired concentration of solid water particles form in the solid water particle solution.

  • Patent number: 10729132
    Abstract: A method for controlling xylophages (e.g., termites, Asian Beetle, Emerald Ash borer, Weevils, Deathwatch Caterpillars, cockroaches) by inhibiting methane production of methanogenic Archaea in the digestive tract thereof. The inhibiting of the critical biochemical pathways specific to the methanogenic Archaea is achieved by contacting the xylophage with one or more antimethanogenic reagent (AMR) compounds. The AMRs may include, for example, naturally-occurring statins (which may be found in red yeast rice) or derivatives thereof, linoleic acid or related compounds, essential oils, certain synthetic compounds or combinations thereof. As a result, the effectiveness of the methanogenic Archaea to produce methane is compromised. This subsequently results into the malfunctioning of the xylophages' digestive system and provides a safe, natural, green and sustainable means of controlling the xylophages.

  • Patent number: 10098930
    Abstract: A chemically modified human Growth Hormone (rhGH) prepared by attaching a transient linker which comprises a polyethylene glycol. The chemically modified protein may have a much longer lasting rhGH activity than that of the unmodified rhGH, enabling reduced dose and scheduling opportunities and the modified rhGH may not cause lipoatrophy. Also includes methods of use for the treatment and/or prevention of diseases or disorders in which use of growth hormone is beneficial.

  • Patent number: 10030039
    Abstract: [Object] An anticancer agent capable of continuously killing cancer cells in a plurality of phases is provided. [Solution] An anticancer agent contains a complex produced by making a metal-salen complex compound, which includes a central metal and (N, N, O, O) as a quadridentate ligand and is magnetic, bind to taxane molecules which are anticancerous; and the anticancer agent is to kill cancer cells regarding which phase transition of its cell cycle occurs between phases including Gap1, Synthesis, Gap2, and Mitosis and Cytokinesis. The present disclosure is suited for use to kill cancer cells of breast cancer and, particularly, cancer cells of triple-negative breast cancer. The present disclosure is designed to make the anticancer agent contact the cancer cells in two or more continuous phases selected from a group consisting of Gap1, Synthesis, Gap2, and Mitosis and Cytokinesis and kill the cancer cells.

  • Patent number: 9808555
    Abstract: Bone tissue biomimetic materials, biomimetic constructs that can be formed with the materials, and methods for forming the materials and constructs are described. The bone tissue biomimetic materials include electrospun nanofibers formed of polymers that are conjugated with peptides that include acidic amino acid residues. The materials can incorporate high levels of mineralization so as to provide mechanical strength and promote osteogenesis and/or osteoconductivity on/in the bone tissue biomimetic materials. The materials and constructs can be utilized in forming tissue engineered structures for in vitro and in vivo use. Macroscopic bone tissue biomimetic scaffolds formed from the materials can be seeded with osteogenic cells and utilized to develop bone graft materials that can exhibit strength and osteoconductivity similar to the native bone and that exhibit uniform distribution of nutrients in the scaffolds.
