LSUHSC Dental Researcher Funded To Develop Better Dental Materials
Xiaoming, Xu, PhD, Associate Professor and Director of Biomaterials Research at LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans School of Dentistry, has been awarded a grant in the amount of $1.77 million over four years by the National Institutes of Health to develop new antibacterial, fluoride-releasing, and bioactive dental materials including dental composites, bonding agents, and sealants. Currently most dental fillings and cosmetic restorations, including bonding and veneers, are done with resin-based dental composites - tooth-colored, plastic, and glass materials. Dr. Xu is working to develop the next generation of dental materials designed to reduce the secondary cavities that often develop around dental resin-based composite fillings as they shrink, causing them to fail. The new materials are expected to reduce secondary cavities and to prolong the life of restorations.

TCGRx Launches The C-Ray Automatic Pill Counting Device In The Retail Pharmacy Market

TCGRx (TCG), an industry leader in automation and design services for pharmacy markets across the U.S., announced today the launch of the C-Ray Electronic Pill Counter in the retail pharmacy market. The C-Ray"s modern design enables pharmacies to greatly reduce the time required to fill prescriptions and count inventory. The rapid counting device counts 100 pills in less than 25 seconds, and unlike other typical counters on the market, the C-Ray automatically separates the prescription quantity from the return quantity. Hands-free counting allows pharmacists and pharmacy technicians more time to tend to customers while also increasing inventory accuracy. "In today"s market, pharmacists and pharmacy technicians cannot afford to sit and count pills all day. It wastes time and money. The C-Ray takes the tedious and time-consuming job of counting pills and turns it into a quick and accurate process. This simple to use product is a necessary tool for use in every pharmacy. We are proud to add the C-Ray to our product line, because it is an efficient and cost-effective solution that will improve pharmacies across the U.S.," said TCG CEO, Duane Chudy. The C-Ray is a multi-functional, small and economical device to place at every dispensing station. All pill pathways are visible and provide simple access for cleaning. TCGRx
