Toothbrush holder
There is disclosed a toothbrush holder system that consists of three basic parts. There is a wall mounted box-type receiver that receives a second L-shaped unit with a downwardly depending element and a third clamping element retainer the second element within the box-type receiver. The L-shaped unit includes a horizontally extending extension having receptacles therein for receiving toothbrushes. The L-shaped unit has a vertically depending element that is removably being clamped within the wall mounted box-type receiver that. The L-shaped unit can easily be separated from the box-type receiver. It is normally encased in a sanitized wrapper and is only installed when new residents occupy a previously vacated bathroom in a motel or hotel. In this manner, the toothbrush itself is always protected from any bacteria present on the toothbrush holders present in any commercial establishments.

Composition for odor control
ActiveUS20050115895A1Promote growthInhibition productionSpecific water treatment objectivesWater contaminantsSpecific enzymeWaste stream
A synergistic composition is provided for controlling odor from waste products. The composition comprises a combination of nitrate salt, sulfide-consuming compound, pH-elevating compound, sulfide-oxidizing, nitrate-reducing bacteria, and sulfide-oxidizing enzyme. The method includes adding a sufficient amount of the composition to a waste stream to provide sufficient sulfide-consuming compound to effect immediate removal of sulfide. The composition incorporates a pH elevating compound, which both decreases the amount of gaseous H2S and puts the aqueous phase into a pH range where naturally occurring bacteria can more easily metabolize the sulfide. The composition also includes one or more nitrate salts which will accomplish longer term prevention of odors. Specific bacteria are incorporated into the formulation to insure that the nitrate has the right type and amount of bacteria present to prevent formation of and / or consume sulfide. Specific enzymes are incorporated into the formulation to promote oxidation of sulfide.

Disclosed is a method of detecting bacteria in a biological sample, especially a blood sample, without the need for extensive sub-culturing of the sample. Nucleic acid present within the sample is isolated and bacterial DNA specifically amplified using primers that uniquely prime the amplification of 16s rRNA-encoding nucleic acid. The amplicons are then digested with an endonuclease to yield a restriction fragment length profile for the biological sample. The restriction fragment length profile for the biological sample is then compare to a database of profiles made using cultures of known bacterial species. A match between the sample profile and the database quickly identifies the bacteria present in the sample.

Described herein are methods of detecting a wound infection and for detecting the presence or absence of bacteria, for example, wound bacteria in a sample, by contacting a sample with a peptide substrate derived from the modification of the reactive site loop (RSL) domain of the α 1-proteinase inhibitor. In the current invention, we have demonstrated that these peptide substrates without the alpha 1 protein can be efficiently used as peptide substrates. The modification or the absence of modification of this peptide substrate by the enzyme produced and / or secreted by the bacteria, can serve as an indicator for the presence or absence of the bacteria in the sample. The present invention also features a biosensor for detecting the presence or absence of bacteria in a sample.

Identification of disease characteristics using isotope ratios in breath
ActiveUS7465276B2Early effective indicatorEasy to detectWithdrawing sample devicesRespiratory organ evaluationTriageIsotope
Methods are disclosed for distinguishing whether an animal is experiencing a bacterial infection or a viral infection. One monitors breath taken from the animal over time to measure the relative amount of a first breath stable isotope to a second breath stable isotope therein over time. A quick change in the isotope ratios within several hours from the likely infection is indicative of a bacterial infection. A delayed change in the isotope ratios, followed by periodic repeated alterations in the ratios, is indicative of viral infection. The methods are particularly efficient when using cavity ringdown spectroscopy for the monitoring. They may be used for monitoring a patient already admitted to a hospital, or for monitoring a patient initially complaining of adverse symptoms, or for triage, or for collectively monitoring a population of animals.

The present invention is directed to bacteriophage therapy, using methods which enable the bacteriophage to delay inactivation by any and all parts of the host defense system (HDS) against foreign objects. The HDS normally reduces the number of bacteriophage in an animal, which decreases the efficiency of the bacteriophage in killing the host bacteria present during an infection. Disclosed is a method of producing bacteriophage modified for anti-HDS purposes by physico-chemical alteration of the bacteriophage surface proteins, so that the altered bacteriophage remain active in the body for longer periods of time than the unmodified bacteriophage.
