20110152908Catheter Including Composite Guide and Methods for use and manufacturing of the Same - A catheter assembly includes a catheter body having a catheter lumen. A manifold assembly is coupled with a proximal catheter portion. A manifold lumen extends through the manifold assembly, and the manifold lumen includes an assembly cavity extending around the proximal catheter portion. A fluid jet loop is coupled with a high pressure tube at a distal catheter portion. The catheter assembly further includes a composite guide having first and second guide portions. The first guide portion includes a proximal guide insert near the proximal catheter portion, the proximal guide insert is positioned within the assembly cavity, and includes a guide insert surface flush with a catheter body interior wall. The second guide portion includes a distal guide near the distal catheter portion including a tapered loop guide surface and an intermediate guide surface of the catheter lumen flushly engaged with a leading edge of the tapered loop guide surface.06-23-2011

20100272639POLYSACCHARIDE NANOPARTICLES - Polysaccharide nanoparticles that are particularly useful in for example drug and agent delivery, tissue-specific targeting, for medical imaging and diagnosis, as well as modifiers of physico-chemical properties. The nanoparticles can be highly-branched glucose homopolymers and can be characterized by a uniform spherical shape. They are monodisperse, hydrophilic and produce low solution viscosities. The nanoparticles are non-toxic, biocompatible and biodegradable. Also, the process of isolation of said polysaccharide nanoparticles from various organisms including, but not limited to, microorganisms such as bacteria and yeasts. Also provided are methods for chemical conjugation of the polysaccharide nanoparticles with various agents. Also provided are examples of use of the polysaccharide nanoparticles and their derivatives as drug delivery systems and fluorescent di-agnostics.10-28-2010
