20160022733 | NOVEL FORMULA OF IRON BASED NANOCOMPOSITES FOR RAPID AND EFFICIENT TREATMENT OF IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA - New formulas of Iron oxides nanoparticles capped with a mixture of multivitamins such as folic acid, Nicotinic acid (vitamin B9) and Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) has been developed for the rapid and efficient treatment of life threatening iron-deficiency anemia. Small single dose of iron oxides-multivitamin nano-composite as low as 8.3 mg elemental iron per does is sufficient to increase the hemoglobin level from 4.4 g/dl up to 14.6 g/dl within only four days after administration. The multivitamin which used in this nano-composite enhances iron absorption significantly and elevated the concentration of hemoglobin. Two dosage forms of Iron nano-composites have been developed, gel capsules and aqueous solution for oral administration. Animal trials studies reveal that introducing single dose of Iron Oxide-vitamin nano-composites containing 8.6 mg elemental iron per kg rat body weight is sufficient to correct the hemoglobin level and cure Anemia via oral administration. | 01-28-2016 |

20110208386 | METHOD OF ACTIVATING A TELEMATICS DEVICE - A method of registering a vehicle with a call center of a telematics system may entail turning a key within a vehicle ignition to begin a call from a telematics control module within the vehicle to a server at a telematics call center, connecting the telematics control module within the vehicle to the server at the telematics service center, sending a health check request from the telematics control module within the vehicle to the server at the telematics service center; and receiving a health check confirmation in the telematics control module within the vehicle from the server at the telematics service center. The method may further entail inquiring if such a health check request request-confirmation was successful. The method may also include a call fail counter and a message fail counter to automatically re-initiate a health check request and a successful answer to such a request. | 08-25-2011 |
20110208388 | AUDIO NOISE REDUCTION METHOD FOR TELEMATICS SYSTEM - A telematics system for a vehicle includes an infotainment module, a codec module, and a control module. The infotainment module outputs data to a speaker via a first audio data path. The codec module outputs data to the speaker via a second audio data path when a telematics function of the telematics system is triggered. The control module switches from the first audio data path to the second audio data path after the telematics function is triggered. The control module changes a state of a relay of the speaker and a gain of the codec module in a first predetermined order before outputting data to the speaker via the second audio data path. | 08-25-2011 |
20110239285 | AUTHENTICATION BYPASS METHOD - A method for reactivating a telematics device configured to make a data call via a roaming partner of a service provider is disclosed. The service provider has an authentication bypass feature which uses an authentication bypass key common to the telematics device and the service provider to allow the telematics device to make a data call without authentication. The method comprises setting the authentication bypass key on a server of the service provider equal to a previous authentication bypass key, wherein the previous authentication bypass key was used by the authentication bypass feature prior to deactivation of the telematics device. The method includes setting the authentication bypass key on the telematics device equal to the previous authentication bypass key. The method further comprises commencing the data call through the roaming partner by sending the authentication bypass key to the service provider from the telematics device via the roaming partner. | 09-29-2011 |
