The invention generally relates to a method of regenerating a nerve fiber in a damaged neural tissue of a patient, the method comprising the steps of: administering an aqueous formulation comprising superparamagnetic particles to the damaged neural tissue in the patient; applying a magnetic field in an orientation which is parallel to the nerve fiber; using the magnetic field for aligning the superparamagnetic particles; forming one or more aligned chains of the superparamagnetic particles in the magnetic field as a scaffold to guide directional growth of regenerating nerve cells; and reconnecting damaged nerve ends in the damaged neural tissue of the patient.

The present invention relates to Myosin II ATPase inhibitor compounds, including substituted 3a-hydroxy-1,2,3,3a-tetrahydro-4H-pyrrolo [2,3b] quinolin-4-one compounds which are blebbistatin derivatives.

Myosin II ATPase inhibitor compounds

A flexible protective medical glove containing a non-liquid antiseptic composition and methods for its use are disclosed. The glove comprises a thin inner layer and a thin outer layer of material; preferably the outer layer is a more elastic and less plastic layer than the inner layer. A compartment between the layers of the glove is capable of providing a non-liquid antiseptic composition which comprises an antiseptic in a non-liquid composition. The non-liquid antiseptic composition may also contain a surface-active agent, an algesic agent, a colorant, a vasoconstrictive agent, an odorant, or a viscosity-modifying agent. An object puncturing the glove wall can become coated with the non-liquid antiseptic composition and can automatically transfer some of the antiseptic composition from the glove onto the hand and into a hand wound should the object cause a wound; useful as an immediate preventative antiseptic treatment to help to decontaminate the hand and hand wound of infectious pathogens that may have been transferred there by the object. The treatment can help to protect a gloved individual such as a surgeon, a medical doctor, a health care worker, a law enforcement officer, a dentist or any worker whose work may place them at some risk of becoming contaminated through the hands by an infectious pathogen including the AIDS virus or hepatitis B virus.

Flexible protective medical gloves and methods for their use

A protective medical glove containing a liquid antiseptic composition and methods for its use are disclosed. The flexible glove comprises at least a thin inner layer and at least a thin outer layer of material; the outer layer is preferably the more elastic and less plastic layer. Between the layers of the glove, a liquid antiseptic composition is stored which comprises an antiseptic in a liquid. The liquid antiseptic composition may also contain a surface-active agent, an algesic agent, a colorant, a vasoconstrictive agent, a smell-causing chemical, and a viscosity-modifying agent. A glove puncture by an object may cause some transfer of liquid antiseptic composition from the glove onto the hand and into a hand wound should the wound occur; useful as an immediate treatment to help to prevent a possible systemic infection by a pathogen in the individual; the treatment can help to protect a gloved individual such as a surgeon, a medical doctor, a health care worker or another worker whose work may place them at risk of becoming contaminated by a glove-puncturing object contaminated with the AIDS virus, hepatitus B virus or another infectious pathogen.
