20080213370 | Novel formulations of pharmacological agents, methods for the preparation thereof and methods for the use thereof - In accordance with the present invention, there are provided compositions and methods useful for the in vivo delivery of substantially water insoluble pharmacologically active agents (such as the anticancer drug paclitaxel) in which the pharmacologically active agent is delivered in the form of suspended particles coated with protein (which acts as a stabilizing agent). In particular, protein and pharmacologically active agent in a biocompatible dispersing medium are subjected to high shear, in the absence of any conventional surfactants, and also in the absence of any polymeric core material for the particles. The procedure yields particles with a diameter of less than about 1 micron. The use of specific composition and preparation conditions (e.g., addition of a polar solvent to the organic phase), and careful selection of the proper organic phase and phase fraction, enables the reproducible production of unusually small nanoparticles of less than 200 nm diameter, which can be sterile-filtered. The particulate system produced according to the invention can be converted into a redispersible dry powder comprising nanoparticles of water-insoluble drug coated with a protein, and free protein to which molecules of the pharmacological agent are bound.

20110068827 | PASSIVE CAPACITIVELY INJECTED PHASE INTERPOLATOR - A phase-interpolator circuit is described. In the phase-interpolator circuit, an output signal, having a fundamental frequency and a phase, is generated based on a weighted summation of a first reference signal and a second reference signal, where the first reference signal has the fundamental frequency and a first phase, and the second reference signal has the same fundamental frequency and a second phase. Note that contributions of the first reference signal and the second reference signal, respectively, to the output signal are determined based on associated first and second impedance values in a weighting circuit in the phase-interpolator circuit. For example, a programmable capacitance ratio of two capacitors may be used to interpolate between the first reference signal and the second reference signal. Additionally, the phase-interpolator circuit may include a biasing circuit that provides a DC bias to the weighting circuit, and which amplifies the output of the weighting circuit to provide the output signal. | 03-24-2011 |

Furthermore, a phase interpolator (PI) in the repeater circuit provides the output clock signal based on the forwarded clock signal and the internal clock signal. Note that the CMU and the PI filter reduce the cycle-to-cycle jitter in the forwarded clock signal and the internal clock signal, and that the output clock signal has a phase that is a weighted average of the phases of the forwarded clock signal and the internal clock signal. In addition, the relative weights of the forwarded clock signal and the internal clock signal (i.e., the amount of phase averaging and jitter filtering) may be adjusted based on a position or location on the link. | 06-23-2011 |

Liposomes can be made by a process that loads the drug by an active mechanism using a transmembrane pH gradient. Using this technique, trapping efficiencies approach 100%. Drug:lipid ratios employed are higher than for older traditional liposome preparations, and the release rate of the drug from the liposomes is reduced. After loading, residual acid is quenched with a quenching agent that is base permeable at low temperatures. The residual aciditiy is thus reduced and chemical stability (e.g. against hydrolysis) is enhanced. The stability of both the liposome and the pharmaceutical agent is thus maintained, prior to administration. The pH gradient is, however, present when the liposome is administered in vivo because the quenching agent rapidly exits the liposome. | 05-13-2010 |
