20090148540, Jun 11, 2009

Filed:

Dec 10, 2007

Appl. No.:

12/001344

Inventors:

William John Martin - South Pasadena CA, US
Stephen Benet Palmer - Saint Louis MO, US

Assignee:

MI HOPE INCORPORATED - SOUTH PASADENA CA

International Classification:

A01N 59/20
A01P 1/00

US Classification:

424638

Abstract:

An electrolysis method is described for generating an aqueous solution of copper citrate that has bacteriocidal activity against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria. Gram positive bacteria are known to be relatively more sensitive to the bacteriocidal activities of copper ions than are Gram negative bacteria. Situations exist in which a disinfectant that is relatively more toxic for Gram positive bacteria will be advantageous over a more broadly active disinfectant, such as that provided by most other disinfectants. In particular, a disinfectant that is relatively selective for Gram positive bacteria could help preserve various non-pathogenic Gram negative microbial populations. The residual Gram negative bacteria can potentially compete with, and thereby lessen the chances of the reintroduction of pathogenic Gram positive bacteria, such as MRSA, Streptococcus, Clostridium difficile and Listeria monocytogenes.

Appl. No.:

12/288749

Inventors:

William John Martin - South Pasadena CA, US
Stephen Benet Palmer - Saint Louis MO, US

Assignee:

MI Hope Inc. - South Pasadena CA

International Classification:

A61K 31/30
A61P 17/02

US Classification:

514495

Abstract:

A composition containing copper and silver ions electrolytically generated in a solution of citric acid that also contains potassium carbonate is shown to expedite the healing of wounds with regeneration of normal tissue architecture and without excessive scarring. A wide range of wounds and other forms of tissue damage affecting the skin and other areas of the body respond favorably to the direct application of the composition, with expedited healing, re-growth of normal appearing (non-scar) tissue and symptomatic relief from pain and swelling. The composition acts in both humans and animals through a novel mechanism provisionally termed the tissue regeneration induced pathway (TRIP).

Appl. No.:

6/594847

Inventors:

Stephen W. Palmer - El Monte CA
Donald R. Gneiding - Fullerton CA

Assignee:

Dual Fuel Systems, Inc. - Montebello CA

International Classification:

B67D 506
B67D 532

US Classification:

222 3

Abstract:

A natural gas fueling system is set forth for filling one or more vehicle tanks from a supply such as a storage tank or a main gas line. The system includes at least one hose assembly having one end adapted to connect to a tank and the other end having a female coupling. Also included is a dispensing assembly having a manually operated valve to control the flow of gas from supply. Connected to the valve is at least one male coupling adapted to be releasably received by the female coupling. The male and female couplings permit the hose assembly to be pulled and disconnected from the dispensing assembly to prevent damage to the hose or dispensing assembly. Additionally, the couplings are provided with check valves to stop the flow of gas when disconnected. A vent is provided to vent any leaking gas as is a locking structure to lock each hose assembly to prevent unauthorized use.
