Material is removed from a body of material, e.g. to create a bore hole, by plasma channel drilling. High voltage, high energy, rapid rise time electrical pulses are delivered many times per second to an electrode assembly in contact with the material body to generate therein elongate plasma channels which expand rapidly following electrical breakdown of the material causing the material to fracture and fragment.

An apparatus and method for applying pulsed electromagnetic therapy to humans and animals. A straight wire element is employed to generate the magnetic field. A power and timer circuit supplies current pulses that approximate square pulses in form, so that the straight wire element generates magnetic pulses having rapid rise and fall times. Peak field strength is approximately 2 gauss at a 1 cm distance from the straight wire element, and the duration of peak field strength is approximately 200 nanoseconds. The pulses are repeated at a frequency of about 70 Hz. The straight wire element and circuit may be housed in a hand-held probe, with an LED illuminating the skin area to provide a visual indication of effective range, or a plurality of the straight wire elements and associated circuits may be embedded in a conformable pad that is placed over the affected area of the body.

Patients are treated with 24-hour oral sustained release opioid formulations which, upon administration, provide an initially rapid opioid absorption such that the minimum effective analgesic concentration of the opioid is more quickly achieved. These sustained release opioid formulations include an effective amount of at least one retardant material to cause said opioid analgesic to be released at a such a rate as to provide an analgesic effect after oral administration to a human patient for at least about 24 hours, and are characterized by providing an absorption half-life from 1 to about 8 hours. A method of titrating a human patient utilizing these sustained release opioid formulations is also disclosed.

The invention discloses a method for distribution control of a drum type washing machine before drying clothes, which comprises a speed at the beginning of water drainage stage, a low rotating speed of clockwise and anticlockwise rotation in the water drainage stage, a medium rotating speed after a rapid rising state through high-speed rotation in one direction and a high rotating speed after a slow rising stage in the direction identical to the direction of the previous stage. The amount of unbalance is judged after the high rotating speed is stable. When the amount of unbalance is larger than or equal to the amount of weight unbalance set in a program, the rotating speed is reduced to the low rotating speed in the water drainage stage, and the distribution is performed again from the second stage 5-6 seconds later, and if the pulse conditions can not satisfied after continuous distribution for three times, the distribution is performed again from the first stage. If the amount of unbalance is smaller than the amount of weight unbalance, the pre-hydrating and drying can be directly performed. The control method of the invention not only can achieve the best clothes distribution effect, thereby reducing the damage to the drum caused by displacement and centrifugal force resulting from uneven distribution, but also can greatly reduce the time before main drying and simultaneously save the electric energy.

A pulse active steering control system and method for use in a motor vehicle for improving vehicle stability by reducing a likelihood for rollover and/or skidding sends pulses to the steerable wheels whenever a rollover coefficient and/or the difference between the estimated and actual yaw rate is outside a predetermined range. The pulses are asymmetrical in the form of a smooth curve with a gradually increasing rapid rising edge and a slower falling edge and provide steering input that, along with the driver steering input, returns the rollover coefficient and/or yaw rate to the predetermined range to reduce the likelihood of rollover and/or skidding.

The invention discloses a suppository for treating vulvovaginitis, comprising fenticonazole nitrate, glycerogelatin matrix and additives capable of playing a part in slow release.

A Bi-directional rack assembly that rotates one column of threaded cores and unscrews threaded closures while moving in the forward direction. The Bi-directional rack then mechanically changes position to engage an adjacent column of rotating threaded cores and at the end of a second molding cycle rotates the threaded cores and unscrew threaded closures while moving in the reverse (reset) direction. A set of timed-advance devices are engaged by a smaller pinion gear and idler gear assemblies to the Bi-directional rack and as the Timed-Advance devices are activated, they allow pneumatic pistons to advance the stripper plate in time with the threaded closures as they are being unscrewed from the threaded cores. A second “rapid advance” pneumatic piston eliminates the need for an external rapid rise camming feature. A rotating core comprising a stock, rotating core, a stock water-seal insert and a custom core top.

The biodiesel manufacturing process generates between 10% and 20% crude glycerin as a waste stream. Due to the rapid rise in the production of biodiesel, this waste has become a significant burden to the industry. This patent establishes a method to transform the crude glycerin into a useful fuel in some applications where waste petroleum oil or heavy fuel oil is currently used. A side benefit of this process is that the biodiesel manufacturer can use this fuel as a secondary profit stream.

The invention relates to slowly digestible starch-containing foodstuffs, such as cereals and snacks, while a substantial percentage of the starch phase of starch-containing foodstuffs is transformed into a slowly digestible form in situ during foodstuff manufacture by modifying the method typical for the respective foodstuff, and if necessary, the recipe. During the manufacture of starch-containing foodstuffs, the starch is most often prepared to the extent where it digested exceedingly quickly, and converted into glucose in the process. This leads to a rapid rise in the blood sugar level (high sugar), followed by a speedy to severe drop in the blood sugar level (low sugar). These foodstuffs have a high glycemic index (GI). A high number of more recent studies suggest that foodstuffs with a high GI are a significant cause of diabetes, obesity and cardiopulmonary diseases. The WHO believes that indicating GI values on foodstuff packaging would effectively help in preventing the mentioned diseases. Therefore, there is a need for starch-containing foodstuffs that have a reduced GI, i.e., are slowly digested. Within this context, the ideal scenario involves a foodstuff with a constant hydrolysis over time, wherein precisely the amount of glucose consumed for metabolism is released per unit of time. Such a foodstuff would be exceedingly desirable in particular for diabetics. The best currently existing solution for diabetics in this regard is uncooked, i.e., native corn starch (WO 95/24906), which is digested relatively slowly. However, the consumption of native cornstarch in the form of an aqueous slurry is unattractive on the one hand, and only a limited time-constant release of glucose can here be achieved on the other. In addition, the temperature stability of native cornstarch is limited, so that only very limited incorporation in processable foodstuff preparations is possible. Other forms of slowly digestible starches include resistant starches (e.g., high corn, Novelose, ActiStar, CrystaLean). These starches exhibit a high crystalline percentage, and about 50% can be digested in the small intestine. The remainder is fermented in the large intestine. The percentage that can be digested in the small intestine is predominantly digested very quickly, so that it makes sense to use only a limited amount of resistant starches as food additives for reducing the GI. Other slowly digestible starches are described in WO 2004/066955 A2. These starches are obtained by gelatinizing a suspension of about 5% starch in water,
