Abstract:
An adapter for use with a piezoelectric and/or magnetostrictive ultrasonic unit can be coupled between the handpiece and the cable. The adapter includes a symmetrically oriented flow path with offset ends to mate with the handpiece and the cable respectively. The adapter also includes a rotary electrical connection facilitating the transfer of energy from the cable to the handpiece while the handpiece is being rotated. The rotary connection of the adapter can be integrated into either of the handpiece or the cable termination.

Abstract:
A low flow ultrasonic insert has an internal fluid flow channel which extends between an operative tip geometry and a body portion of insert. The channel terminates at the tip geometry with a fluid flow output. A fluid flow input is provided for the channel in the body portion where a transverse slot intersects the channel.

The present invention relates to peptidomimetic compounds useful as protease inhibitors, particularly as serine protease inhibitors and more particularly as hepatitis C NS3 protease inhibitors; intermediates thereto; their preparation including novel steroselective processes to intermediates. The invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions and to methods for using the compounds for inhibiting HCV protease or treating a patient suffering from an HCV infection or physiological condition related to the infection. Also provided are pharmaceutical combinations comprising, in addition to one or more HCV serine protease inhibitors, one or more interferons exhibiting anti-HCV activity and/or one or more compounds having anti HCV activity and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and methods for treating or preventing a HCV infection in a patient using the compositions. The present invention is also directed to a kit or pharmaceutical pack for treating or preventing HCV infection in a patient.
