Sustained Release Drug Delivery Devices, Thomas J. Smith, Paul Ashton, Paul A. Pearson

Ophthalmology and Visual Science Faculty Patents

A method and device for treating a mammalian organism to obtain a desired local or systemic physiological or pharmacological effect is provided. The method includes administering a sustained release drug delivery system to a mammalian organism in need of such treatment at an area wherein release of an effective agent is desired and allowing the effective agent to pass through the device in a controlled manner. The device includes an inner core or reservoir comprising the effective agent; a first coating layer, which is essentially impermeable to the passage of the effective agent; and a second coating layer, which is …


Population Genetic-Study Among The Orang-Asli (Semai-Senoi) Of Malaysia - Malayan Aborigines, Mary Anne Tan Jin Ai Jan 1995

Population Genetic-Study Among The Orang-Asli (Semai-Senoi) Of Malaysia - Malayan Aborigines, Mary Anne Tan Jin Ai

Mary Anne Tan Jin Ai

A population genetic study was undertaken to provide gene frequency data on the additional blood genetic markers in the Semai and to estimate the genetic relations between the Semai and their neighboring and linguistically related populations by genetic distance and principal components analyses. Altogether 10 poly morphic and 7 monomorphic blood genetic markers (plasma proteins and red cell enzymes) were studied in a group of 349 Senoi Semai from 11. aboriginal settlements (villages) in the Pahang State of western Malaysia, Both the red cell glucosed-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGD) loci reveal the presence of polymorphic frequencies of a …
