20110029076 | Breast Implant Therapeutic Delivery System - A surgical procedure for breast augmentation includes the steps of preparing a pocket for receiving a breast implant; applying a semisolid including at least one therapeutic agent to at least one of the pocket or the breast implant; and inserting the breast implant in the pocket. An implant kit includes the implant and the semisolid with one or more additives. | 02-03-2011 |
20120129794 | APPARATI, METHODS, AND COMPOSITIONS FOR UNIVERSAL MICROBIAL DIAGNOSIS, DETECTION, QUANTIFICATION, AND SPECIMEN-TARGETED THERAPY - Microbial ecology of a specimen is evaluated using an approach (Level I) that utilizes nucleic acid amplification with specific gene primers that will identify panels of microorganisms and antibiotic-resistance factors generating a diagnostic report (optionally with quantification of each microorganism or antibiotic-resistance factor) and an approach (Level II) that utilizes universal or semi-universal primers to amplify conserved genes at a general or specific taxonomic level that are tagged specimen specifically using a genetic or chemical marker that is specific to the specimen from which it was derived, then sequencing the amplified products with highly-parallel, high-throughput technology to provide comprehensive sequences of the microbial population in the specimen followed by analysis of this sequence information and specific targeted information from Level I and/or Level II to generate a comprehensive analysis, interpretation, and/or diagnostic report. | 05-24-2012 |
20130171203 | Composition And Methods For Antimicrobial Articles - A biocompatible controlled release form of complexed iodine is achieved by a complexation of polyvinyl alcohol based foam and characterized by a residual starch component to optimize iodine release profiles. The resulting iodine complexed polyvinyl alcohol foam may be utilized locally as an antimicrobial agent that releases controlled amounts of iodine sufficient to kill microbes for extended durations without excessive bulk and rigidity. | 07-04-2013 |
