7618396, Nov 17, 2009

Filed:

Aug 9, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/463529

Inventors:

John B. Slate - San Diego CA, US
Andrew C. Barnes - San Diego CA, US
Corey M. Magers - San Diego CA, US

Assignee:

Avant Medical Corp. - San Diego CA

International Classification:

A61M 5/20
A61M 5/00

US Classification:

604136, 604187

Abstract:

An auto-injector confines all functional components inside an enclosed housing, to keep its needle out-of-sight, at all times. Within the housing, a needle holder positions a needle at a location. A drive mechanism then simultaneously engages the needle with a fluid source and accelerates it with a predetermined momentum for insertion into a patient. After fluid delivery, the withdrawn needle is moved to storage within the housing for subsequent disposal.

International Classification:

A61M 37/00

US Classification:

604131

Abstract:

A system for injecting a fluid medicament into a patient includes a drive mechanism, and a cassette loaded with a pre-filled hypodermic syringe. When the cassette is loaded, the syringe is held firmly inside and the cassette can be selectively engaged with the drive mechanism. The drive mechanism has two motors. A first motor initially moves the hypodermic syringe from a position inside the cassette where its needle is concealed, to a position where the needle extends from the cassette for insertion into a patient for an injection. With the needle inserted, a second motor pushes the syringe stopper to expel a fluid medicament from the syringe. After an injection, the first motor withdraws the syringe back into concealment inside the cassette, to again firmly hold the syringe on the cassette. The cassette and syringe, in combination, can then be removed from the drive mechanism and discarded.

Appl. No.:

6/750369

Inventors:

Andrew C. Barnes - San Diego CA
Susan G. Cummings - Chula Vista CA

Assignee:

Mycogen Corporation - San Diego CA

International Classification:

A01N 6500

US Classification:

4241951

Abstract:

The subject invention concerns pesticides comprising naturally-occurring pesticide-producing microorganisms, and the use thereof. Specifically, naturally-occurring pesticide-producing microorganisms are treated, for example with reagents, such as halogenating reagents, that prolong the activity of the pesticide produced in the cell, when the cell is applied to the environment of target pest(s).

Assignee:

Mycogen Corporation - San Diego CA

International Classification:

A01N 6300
C12P 2100
C12N 1500
C12N 120

US Classification:

424 93

Abstract:

Methods and compositions are provided for preparing and using pesticides, where the pesticides are encapsulated in non-proliferating cells. The methods involve introducing a heterologous gene into a cellular host, where expression of the heterologous gene results, directly or indirectly, in production of the pesticide. These cells are then killed under conditions which prolong the pesticidal activity when said cells are applied to the environment of a target pest. The killed cells can be used directly or after formulation for treatment of an agricultural host or environment of the host with the pesticide.
