Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to a new apparatus and method for molding metallic materials, such as, for example, solder. More particularly, the invention encompasses an apparatus that is used to form metallic interconnections, such as, for example, solder connections, such as, BGA (Ball Grid Array) or CGA (Column Grid Array) in a mold for later use to electrically or mechanically connect two devices, such as, for example, semiconductor devices. A method for forming the metallic connections that are used to electrically or mechanically connect two devices, such as, for example, semiconductor devices is also disclosed. However, these metallic interconnections in a mold could also be used to form other structures, such as, for example, heat sinks with fins, etc.

Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to a new mold transfer apparatus and method. More particularly, the invention encompasses an apparatus that is used to form metallic interconnections, such as, for example, solder connections, such as, solder balls or solder columns, using a mold that is already filled with transferable metallic material. However, these metallic interconnections in a mold could also be used to form other structures, such as, for example, heat sinks with fins, etc.
Secnidazole For Use In The Treatment Of Bacterial Vaginosis
Method of treating trichomoniasis in a subject in need thereof involving administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of secnidazole in a microgranule formulation, wherein the microgranule formulation comprises a plurality of microgranules having a volume-weighted particle size distribution within a microgranule population, wherein the volume-weighted particle size distribution as measured from a representative sample of the microgranule population comprises (a) 10% of the microgranule population having a volume-weighted particle size about no less than 470 micrometers; (b) 50% of the microgranule population having a volume-weighted particle size between about no less than 640 micrometers and about no more than 810 micrometers; (c) 90% of the microgranule population having a volume-weighted particle size about no more than 1170 micrometers; or (d) a combination thereof, which can include some or all of (a) through (c) above.
