Apparatus And Method For Containing And Dispensing Medical Grade Sterile Viscous Substances
US Patent:
2005000, Jan 6, 2005
Filed:
May 12, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/844263
Inventors:
Albert Prescott - Westford MA, US
International Classification:
A61M031/00
US Classification:
604181000
Abstract:
An apparatus containing and dispensing medical grade sterile viscous substances comprised of a storage container resembling a syringe of a volume 1 to 60 or greater milliliters, a plunger similar to that used in syringes, and a needless septum. The apparatus is designed to meter out varying volumes of the material, while maintaining sterility of the contents in the storage container. The method involves connecting a receiving container (typically a syringe without a needle) to the container through the needless septum, and pulling on the plunger in the receiving syringe and/or pushing on the plunger in the container, to transfer a desired amount of the material from the container, through the septum, and into the receiving container.
Polymer Gel Containing Hyaluronic Acid And Collagen, And Its Use In Joints
US Patent:
7371399, May 13, 2008
Filed:
Jul 14, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/181107
Inventors:
Albert G. Prescott - Westford MA, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/30
US Classification:
424422
Abstract:
Formulations and methods for treating joints, such as temporomandibular joint disorders, osteoarthritis of the knee, hip and other types of inflammatory joint diseases. The method involves identifying specific matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that may be responsible for degrading the soft tissues of the joint in question, identifying the specific component of the joint the MMP(s) are targeting, and injecting a polymer gel with the component the MMP(s) seek to destroy, thus preserving the joint and allowing time to heal. These formulations typically require a mixture of glycosoaminoglycans and collagen proteins. One formulation in particular includes both hyaluronic acid and at least type I collagen.
Method For Producing Medical And Commercial Grade Poly-Gamma-Glutamic Acid Of High Molecular Weight
US Patent:
7364875, Apr 29, 2008
Filed:
Oct 27, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/974442
Inventors:
Albert G. Prescott - Westford MA, US
Assignee:
Cresent Innovations, Inc. - Westford MA
International Classification:
C12P 21/06, C12P 13/04, C12P 13/14, C12N 1/20
US Classification:
435 681, 435 691, 435106, 435110, 43525231, 4352525
Abstract:
Methods for producing high molecular weight poly-gamma-glutamic acid (PGA). The PGA is produced by fermentation, and purified by use of tangential flow filtration, followed by diafiltration, as necessary, to yield a product of the desired purity. Product obtained may be of very high purity using all the prescribed purification steps. Product of this purity is suitable for in vivo medical applications. Other applications, such as food or agricultural, may utilize lower purity levels, and hence do not require all the purification steps specified.
