A self-emulsifying drug delivery system to improve dissolution, stability, and bioavailability of drug compounds of dronabinol or other cannabinoids. The drug compound(s) are dissolved in an oily medium (e.g. triglycerides and/or mixed glycerides and/or free fatty acids containing medium and/or long chain saturated, mono-unsaturated, and/or poly-unsaturated free fatty acids) together with at least one surfactant. The surfactant promotes self-emulsification, thereby promoting targeted chylomicron delivery and optimal bioavailability to a mammalian intestinal lumen. A dosage form can optionally include co-solvents, anti-oxidants, viscosity modifying agents, cytochrome P450 metabolic inhibitors, P-GP efflux inhibitors, and amphiphilic/non-amphiphilic solutes to induce semi-solid formation for targeted release rates.

Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems are provided to improve dissolution, stability, and bioavailability of drug compounds of dronabinol or other cannabinoids. The drug compound(s) are dissolved in an oily medium (e.g. triglycerides and/or mixed glycerides and/or free fatty acids containing medium and/or long chain saturated, mono-unsaturated, and/or poly-unsaturated free fatty acids) together with at least one surfactant. The surfactant promotes self-emulsification, thereby promoting targeted chylomicron/lipoprotein delivery and optimal bioavailability through the mammalian intestinal tract. A dosage form can optionally include co-solvents, anti-oxidants, viscosity modifying agents, cytochrome P450 metabolic inhibitors, P-GP efflux inhibitors, and amphiphilic/non-amphiphilic solutes to induce semi-solid formation for targeted release rates.

A system and method are provided for preventing damage to the epidermis or other epithelial or non-target tissue during photodynamic therapy treatment. For example, an inhibiting radiation can be used to control formation of a photosensitizer from a precursor photosensitizer in the epidermis or epithelial tissue. Subsequent application of a treatment radiation can activate the photosensitizer to damage or destroy target sites while the non-target tissue remains substantially unaffected.

The invention discloses lactobacillus used for biological preservation, which is named Lactobacillus plantarum and has been collected in China Center for Type Culture Collection on June 21, 2010 with the collection number of CCTCC M 2010150. The lactobacillus can be used for fruit preservation. The application method comprises the following steps: heating and dissolving an acidizer in water, reducing temperature to normal temperature, adding lactobacillus powder, uniformly mixing, spraying onto fruits in an atomized mode, and storing the fruits at normal temperature or low temperature. Under the condition of normal temperature, the fruits can be preserved for 3 months, and under the condition of low temperature, the fruits can be preserved for 6 months. The Lactobacillus plantarum is obtained by screening a large amount of lactobacillus, can control peel browning and reduce fruit morbidity, and also can properly reduce fruit moisture violation, inhibit the metabolism of the fruits, and prolong the refreshing time.

The disclosure provides the use of particular substituted heterocycle fused gamma-carboline compounds as pharmaceuticals for the treatment of residual symptoms of psychosis or schizophrenia. The disclosure also provides novel long acting injectable formulations of particular substituted heterocycle fused gamma-carboline compounds and use of such long acting injectable formulations for the treatment of residual symptoms of psychosis or schizophrenia.

Individualized responsive dosing dietary supplement systems, compositions, methods of dosing, and processes of producing the same, which allow a consumer to generate individualistic biological responses/effects. More specifically, a dietary supplement system for generating individualized biological conditions/responses which utilizes ultra-low dosage amounts of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, co-enzymes, and/or other nutrients in a bio-active delivery system which preferably avoids first pass metabolism, such that an individual may take multiple doses of the same or different dietary supplement based on varying desired biological response within each 24 period is also disclosed.

A method of treating or preventing a systemic viral infection in a mammal by administering a pharmaceutically acceptable composition selected from the group consisting of squalamine, an active isomer thereof, and an active analogue thereof, via a dosing regimen that delivers effective antiviral concentrations of squalamine. Also compositions for achieving the systemic antiviral effect.

The invention relates to the field of bioengineering, in particular to a preparation method and an application of a microbial agent composition for enhancing secondary fermentation of a bean paste. The microbial agent composition consists of a saccharomycetes agent, an aspergillus oryzae agent and a pleospora agent; and the three microbial agents are prepared, and then the prepared microbial agents are mixed with the secondary-fermented bean paste, so as to promote the secondary fermentation of the bean paste. The whole process of the preparation method of the microbial agent composition provided by the invention is applicable to continuous industrial production; by-products (chili and radix platycodonis), from the production of Pixian bean paste, are comprehensively utilized; a production cycle can be shortened by 6 months, the content of amino nitrogen can be improved by 20% and the content of volatile aroma-producing components can be improved by more than 3 times (the contents of total ester, total acid and total aldehyde); by inoculating aflatoxin B1 with the saccharomycetes agent at a production peak (after being fermented for 30-60 days), an ester producing and aroma generating process can be enhanced, the metabolism of aspergillus flavus and partial aspergillus parasiticus can be competitively inhibited and the content of the aflatoxin B1 can be reduced, and the content of the aflatoxin B1 is lower than 0.5ppm, so that food safety is enhanced.
