20130130604 | ANIMAL STUNNING - Described are animal stunning apparatus and methods for inducing rapid unconsciousness and insensibility. The apparatus includes a stunning station in which a live subject animal is located in a confined position and an applicator contacts an application point on the live subject animal's head immediately overlying a frontal portion of the animal's brain and couples microwave radiation to the head. A microwave generator generates microwave energy of a suitable power level and frequency, and a waveguide directs the microwave radiation to the applicator. A switch discontinues the application of microwave radiation effecting heating of the frontal portion of the brain after a period of time sufficient to have raised the temperature of the frontal portion of the brain of the subject animal to thereby induce the unconsciousness and insensibility. The period is sufficient only to rapidly induce insensibility, and is insufficient for the insensibility induced to be irreversible, and insufficient to cause significant heating of deeper brain tissues and including the brain stem. | 05-23-2013 |

20140120814 | EFFECTIVE ANIMAL STUNNING - Disclosed are an animal stunning apparatus and method for inducing rapid unconsciousness and insensibility. The apparatus includes a stunning station wherein a live animal is confined and an applicator contacts an application point on the animal's head overlying a frontal portion of the brain and couples microwave radiation to the head. A microwave generator generates microwave energy of suitable power and frequency, and a waveguide directs microwave radiation to the applicator. An auto-tuner in the waveguide uses a directional coupler to detect forward and reflected power and to tune in real time the impedance for matching the load and optimizing effective power transfer. A switch discontinues the application of microwave radiation heating of the frontal portion to induce unconsciousness and insensibility. The period may be sufficient only to rapidly induce insensibility, and insufficient for the insensibility induced to be irreversible, or cause significant heating of deeper brain tissues. | 05-01-2014 |

20080247925 | SEPARATION AND RECOVERY OF PRECIOUS METALS USING POLYMER MATERIALS - A method of separation and/or recovery of a precious metal from a solution containing said precious metal in ionic form, optionally in the presence of impurities, including the step of contacting a solution containing said precious metal in ionic form with a conducting polymer. The method is generally applicable to precious metals including platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd) and more particularly gold (Au). The ionic species may be anionic (for example [AuCl.sub.4].sup.-) or cationic. The polymer may be for example, a polypyrrole or polythiophene, optionally doped and are preferably in a high surface area form eg. coated onto cloth or RVC or in self supporting colloidal form. The polymer may also contain species to give further functionality, eg magnetic or heat sensitive species. | 10-09-2008 |

20110059898 | PRO-OXIDANT ANTI-CANCER COMPOUNDS - This invention relates to anti-cancer compounds and to methods for treating or preventing cancer. In particular, the invention concerns pro-oxidant anti-cancer compounds, such as pro-oxidant forms of vitamin E, that selectively interact with complex II of the mitochondrial respiratory chain of cancerous cells, generate reactive oxygen species and induce apoptosis of those cells. | 03-10-2011 |
20110105437 | Mitochondrially Delivered Anti-Cancer Compounds - This invention relates to anti-cancer compounds and to methods for treating or preventing cancer. In one aspect the invention concerns mitochondrially delivered pro-oxidant anti-cancer compounds that generate reactive oxygen species and induce apoptosis of cancerous cells. The delivery moiety can be a lipophilic cation and the pro-oxidant vitamin E analogue, such as α-tocopheryl succinate, α-tocopheryl maleate, α-tocopheryl maleyl amide, or 2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-2R-(4R,8R,12-trimethyltridecyl)-chroman-6-yloxyacetic acid (α-tocopheryloxyacetic acid). | 05-05-2011 |
