US Patent:

7365839, Apr 29, 2008

Filed:

Nov 3, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/981139

Inventors:

Scott Ferguson - Spanish Fork UT, US
Stephen J. Poole - Provo UT, US

Assignee:

Nu Skin International, Inc. - Provo UT

International Classification:

G01J 1/10
G01J 3/44

US Classification:

3562431, 356301

Abstract:

A method, apparatus, and set of compositions are disclosed for calibrating a bio-photonic scanner. The scanner detects selected molecular structures of tissues, nondestructively, in vivo. The apparatus may include a computer, including processor and memory connecting to the scanner, including an illuminator to direct light nondestructively onto tissue in vivo, a detector to detect an intensity of a radiant response of the tissue to the light, and a probe to direct light onto the subject and receive a radiant response back into the detector. The apparatus is calibrated using a synthetic material to mimic the radiant response of live tissue, correcting for background fluorescence and elastic scattering. Dopants in a matrix of synthetic material mimic selected molecular structures of tissue. Matrix materials include a dilatant compound, and dopants include biological materials as well as K-type polarizing film powdered and mixed.

US Classification:

536 41, 536124, 514 58

Abstract:

Methods for the preparation of nanosized nutrient formulations for enhanced absorption of nutritional agents. The methods include the complexation of cyclodextrin with carotenoids and incorporation of the complexes into the nutritional supplements without intermediate collection, isolation, and drying steps.
