A portable biometric lighter device () generally involving a control unit (), a biometric sensor, such as a fingerprint sensor (), wherein the biometric sensor is configured to scan a biometric data of a user and is operably coupled to the control unit (), and an ignition element, wherein the ignition element is activated by the control unit () upon a match of the scanned biometric data of the user and a biometric data of an authorized user that is stored in a memory device.

Portable biometric lighter

The present disclosure generally provides complexes including a pharmaceutically active agent and a functionalized polymer, wherein the functionalized polymer includes repeat units, the repeat units including ionizable repeat units having at least one ionizable side group and/or ionizable end group, a plurality of the at least one ionizable groups forming non-covalent bonds with the pharmaceutically active agent. Polymers which may be used to form such complexes as well as methods of making and using the complexes and related compositions are also provided.

Pharmaceutically active agent complexes, polymer complexes, and compositions and methods involving the same

Compositions may include a pharmaceutical active agent, a high viscosity liquid carrier material (HVLCM), a lactic acid-based polymer, and an organic solvent. Related compositions and methods are also disclosed. For instance, a carrier formulation for controlled release of injectable drugs is disclosed. The formulation may include a non-water soluble high viscosity liquid which may be sucrose acetate isobutyrate, a lactic-acid based polymer which may be a poly(lactic acid)(glycolic acid), and an organic solvent which maintains the composition in a monophasic form at 25&#xb0; C. in one atmosphere. Drug in the formulation may be released upon administration such that less than 10% (e.g. 2-8%) of drug is released in the first 5 hours; 10% to 80% of the drug is released during a period of 5 hours to 7 days after administration; and 10% to 40% of the drug is released gradually over a period of 7 days to 28 days from initial administration. The drug may be an anti-schizophrenia agent delivered by injection.

Compositions and methods involving polymer, solvent, and high viscosity liquid carrier material

A safety device including a side wall, a receiving area defined by the side wall, at least one magnet disposed within the receiving area, and at least one lighting element disposed on the side wall, wherein, the receiving area receives a portion of a structure when the plurality of magnets magnetically interact with the portion of the structure, is provided. Furthermore, an associated method is also provided.

Safety device with lighting element and magnetic attachment

Disclosed are formulations and related methods that comprise a non-polymeric, non-water soluble high viscosity liquid carrier material having a viscosity of at least 5,000 cP at 37&#xb0; C. that does not crystallize neat under ambient or physiological conditions; a specified linear polymer comprising lactide repeat units; and one or more solvents that have a solvent capacity.

Depot formulations

Dosage forms and drug delivery devices suitable for administration of pharmaceutical compounds and compositions, including the oral drug administration of compounds.

Oral drug delivery system

Injectable controlled release composition comprising high viscosity liquid carrier

Compositions may include a pharmaceutical active agent, a high viscosity liquid carrier material (HVLCM), a lactic acid-based polymer, and an organic solvent. Related compositions and methods are also disclosed.
