20100046576METHOD FOR PERFORMING ULTRASONIC TESTING - Methods of performing ultrasonic testing are disclosed, comprising the step of determining a temperature gradient of an ultrasonic wedge. In one embodiment of the invention, the method further comprises the steps of determining a sound velocity gradient of the ultrasonic wedge to determine the time it takes for sound waves emanating from a plurality of ultrasonic transducer elements attached to the ultrasonic wedge to reach a point of interest within a test object, and firing each of the ultrasonic transducer elements in a timed sequence based on the times such that sound waves from each of the ultrasonic transducer elements reach the point of interest at the same time. In other embodiments of the invention, the total attenuation and acoustic impedance of a sound wave traveling through the ultrasonic wedge is determined to adjust the amplitude of the sound wave such that the sound wave has sufficient amplitude to perform the ultrasonic testing.02-25-2010

20100179103CURCUMIN CYCLODEXTRIN COMBINATION FOR PREVENTING OR TREATING VARIOUS DISEASES - Curcumin has shown anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties that could be useful in treating various diseases such as those of rheumatology and oncology. However, curcumin is very poorly absorbed and has a very low bioavailability. This patent describes a method of increasing the delivery of curcumin by complexing it with cyclodextrins. Cyclodextrins are well known in the food industry and have been used to carry other drugs to increase bioavailability. The new combination of cyclodextrins and curcumin has been tested in pre-clinical inflammation models where it has demonstrated efficacy superior to both the positive control and curcumin.07-15-2010
20110263537CO-ADMINISTRATION OF STEROIDS AND ZOLEDRONIC ACID TO PREVENT AND TREAT SIDE EFFECTS FROM ZOLEDRONIC ACID INFUSION - Zoledronic Acid is used for treatment of hypercalcemia of malignancy, for the treatment of bone metastasis associated with malignancies such as prostate and breast cancer, for the prevention of and treatment of osteoporosis and for the treatment of Paget's disease. Administration of Zoledronic Acid is complicated by what is described as “post-dosing syndrome” (PDS) and osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ). Inflammation may be the cause of these side effects, which could be decreased by the co-administration of steroids. This application is a method of use patent for the co-administration of steroids (oral, IV, IM, rectal, or by inhalation) with Zoledronic Acid and a composition of matter patent for mixing Methyl Prednisolone with Zoledronic Acid for infusion.10-27-2011
20110275645Small Molecules for Inhibition of Protein Kinases - The invention provides compounds that inhibit protein kinases, prodrugs of the compounds, intermediates and methods of synthesizing the compounds and/or prodrugs, pharmaceutical compositions including the compounds and/or prodrugs and methods of using the compounds and/or prodrugs in a variety of contexts, including, for example, in the treatment and/or prevention of various diseases that are responsive to protein kinase inhibition and/or that are mediated, at least in part, by inappropriate kinase activity.11-10-2011

20080313267OPTIMIZE WEB SERVICE INTERACTIONS VIA A DOWNLOADABLE CUSTOM PARSER - A method, system and computer program product for optimizing web service interactions. A server receives a service request from a client, where the service request includes information that is used by the server to provide a customized parser to the client that allows optimal web service interactions. Upon the server providing a link to the client to download this customized parser, the client downloads the parser and embeds the parser into its runtime environment. The parser in the client is then able to receive and transmit communications from and to the server, respectively, in a most efficient manner. For example, the parser may reduce the size of the XML message size more considerably than compression algorithms. In another example, if the client and server communicate in different languages, the parser may translate the messages between the client and server so that the messages are understandable.12-18-2008
