Abstract:
A method and device for treating a mammalian organism to obtain a desired local or systemic physiological or pharmacological effect is provided. The method includes administering a sustained release drug delivery system to a mammalian organism in need of such treatment at an area wherein release of an effective agent is desired and allowing the effective agent to pass through the device in a controlled manner. The device includes an inner core or reservoir including the effective agent, an impermeable tube which encloses portions of the reservoir, and a permeable member at an end of the tube.

Abstract:
A power supply system with an electronic high-voltage transformer includes an input module for receiving a current and eliminating disturbance in the current, a transformer module for transforming the received current into a low-voltage direct current, a power supply module for transforming the low-voltage direct current into a high-frequency alternating current, and a magnetic processing module comprising one or more magnetic elements and one or more high-voltage resistant wires connecting with the magnetic elements so as to transform the high-frequency alternating current into a high-voltage alternating current. In accordance with the above power supply system and method with an electronic high-voltage transformer, the magnetic elements and the high-voltage resistant wires connected to the magnetic elements have a simple structure, easily extract electricity and effectively output power stage by stage so as to supply a high-power energy in a high-voltage state and thus achieve a purpose of isolation from a high voltage.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a sustained release system that includes a polymer and a pharmaceutically active agent dispersed in the polymer. The agent is in granular or particulate form, and has a rate of release from the system that is limited primarily by the rate at which the agent dissolves from the granules into the polymer matrix. Advantageously, the polymer is permeable to the agent and is non-release-rate-limiting with respect to the rate of release of the agent from the polymer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a novel suspension delivery system for the sustained and controlled release of pharmaceuticals. Methods of preparation and use are also disclosed.

Abstract:
A waste food disposer unit 10 for under sink application has a housing divided into a grinding chamber 12 and a motor chamber 15. The grinding chamber 12 has an inlet 16 for water and waste matter and an outlet 18 for water and shredded waste matter. A shredder ring 20 is disposed within the grinding chamber and has a plurality of cutting teeth 36 formed by slots 34 extending upwardly from a lower edge of the ring. A grinding disc 22 is disposed within the grinding chamber 12 and has a plurality of peripheral recesses 42 which co-acts with the cutting teeth 36 to shred the waste matter.
Abstract:
A port based peer access control method, comprises the steps of: 1) enabling the authentication control entity; 2) two authentication control entities authenticating each other; 3) setting the status of the controlled port. The method may further comprise the steps of enabling the authentication server entity, two authentication subsystems negotiating the key. By modifying the asymmetry of background technique, the invention has advantages of peer control, distinguishable authentication control entity, good scalability, good security, simple key negotiation process, relatively complete system, high flexibility, thus the invention can satisfy the requirements of central management as well as resolve the technical issues of the prior network access control method, including complex process, poor security, poor scalability, so it provides essential guarantee for secure network access.
