April 22, 2013 by Leave a Comment


Albany, NY (PRWEB) April 04, 2013

Thin film photovoltaics are solar cells manufactured by placing one or more thin layers of photovoltaic material on a substrate. The thickness of such a layer varies widely ranging from few nanometers to a few micrometers. There are two leading manufactured solar photovoltaic (PV) technologies in commercial use today; crystalline silicon PV and thin-film PV.

There are various ways to manufacture a photovoltaic cell depending on which it is classified as follows:

Amorphous silicon and other thin film silicon

Cadmium telluride

Copper indium gallium selenide

Dye- sensitized solar cell

Photovoltaic (PV) technology transforms solar energy from the sun released in the form of photons into electricity. Current PV technologies use semiconductor materials also found in computers and other electronic equipment. Semiconductors release electrons from their atomic bonds producing electrical current.

New Phase 3 Paid COPD Clinical Trial Now Enrolling at Avail Clinical Research Near Orlando, Florida; Now Enrolling Participants Age 18-75

March 17, 2013 by Leave a Comment


DeLand, Florida (PRWEB) November 12, 2012

According to the World Health Organization, COPD was the fifth leading cause of death worldwide in 2002 and is estimated to be the third leading cause by 2030 [WHO, 2010].

Are you a current or ex-smoker are suffering from a new or increased shortness of breath, cough, or congestion? If have COPD, Bronchitis, Emphysema or suffer from these symptoms this trial may fit for you.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been defined as a preventable and treatable disease with some significant extra-pulmonary effects that may contribute to the severity in individual patients. The pulmonary component of COPD is characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible, which is usually progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lung to noxious particles or gases. COPD is a major cause of poor health, resulting in millions of deaths annually worldwide [GOLD, 2010] and contributing significantly to health care costs and morbidity [Chapman, 2006; Lopez, 2006].

**Avail Clinical Research is now enrolling for this Paid COPD Clinical Trial. To get started, visit http://ECigBrandStarterKit.com/go/free-trial or call us directly at (386) 310-1334.

STUDY DESIGN

This will be a Phase IIIb multi-center, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, 12-week parallel group study evaluating the effects of once daily in the morning treatment of a new drug versus an existing one, twice daily on lung function in COPD subjects.

Subjects will visit the clinic a minimum of 5 times over a 14-week period. Visit 5 will be an overnight stay in the clinic. A safety Follow-up Visit 6, 7 days post the last treatment study day will occur as a telephone contact. Subjects will be prescribed appropriate COPD therapy at the end of Treatment Visit 5 if required.

There are no plans to provide the study drug for compassionate use following study completion. The target enrolment across approximately 85 study centers is approximately 800 randomized subjects, to achieve approximately 680 who complete the 12-week treatment period. The total duration of subject participation will be approximately 15 weeks.

INCLUSION CRITERIA

Specific information regarding warnings, precautions, contraindications, adverse events, and other pertinent information on the investigational product or other study deviations from inclusion criteria are not allowed because they can potentially jeopardize the scientific integrity of the study, regulatory acceptability or subject safety. Therefore, adherence to the criteria as specified in the protocol is essential.

Subjects eligible for enrolment in the study must meet all of the following criteria:

1. Informed consent: Subjects must give their signed and dated written informed consent to participate.

2. Gender: Males or females. Female subjects must be post-menopausal or using a highly effective method for avoidance of pregnancy. The decision to include or exclude women of childbearing potential may be made at the discretion of the investigator in accordance with local practice in relation to adequate contraception.

3. Age: 40 years of age at Screening (Visit 1)

4. COPD diagnosis: Subjects with a clinical history of COPD in accordance with the following definition by the American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society [Celli, 2004]: COPD is a preventable and treatable disease characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually progressive and is associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles or gases, primarily caused by cigarette smoking. Although COPD affects the lungs, it also produces significant systemic consequences.

5. Severity of Disease:


Subject with a measured post-albuterol (salbutamol) FEV1/FVC ratio of 0.70 at Screening (Visit 1) [Pelligrino, 2005]

Subjects with a measured post-albuterol (salbutamol) FEV1 70% of predicted normal values calculated (via centralized vendor equipment) using NHANES III reference equations [Hankinson, 1999] at Screening (Visit 1).

Post-bronchodilator spirometry will be performed approximately 10-15 minutes after the subject has self-administered 4 inhalations (i.e., total 400mcg) of albuterol (salbutamol) via an MDI with a valved-holding chamber. The study-provided central spirometry equipment will calculate the FEV1/FVC ratio and FEV1 percent predicted values.

6. Tobacco use: Subjects with a current or prior history of 10 pack-years of cigarette smoking at Screening (Visit 1). Former smokers are defined as those who have stopped smoking for at least 6 months prior to Visit 1. Note: Pipe and/or cigar use cannot be used to calculate pack-year history. Number of pack years = (number of cigarettes per day/20) x number of years smoked.

Small Specialty Retail Stores in the US Industry Market Research Report from IBISWorld has Been Updated

November 30, 2012 by Leave a Comment


Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 27, 2012

Operators in the Small Specialty Retail Stores industry sell very diverse products, from premium cigars to sketch pads. Due to its fragmented nature, the industry is driven not by product-specific trends but rather by broad changes in consumer sentiment and household disposable income. Since the recession, these macroeconomic drivers have taken a negative turn, causing US consumers to cut back on purchasing industry products, says IBISWorld industry analyst Eben Jose. As a result, IBISWorld estimates that revenue will decrease at an average annual rate of 3.6% over the five years to 2012 to total $ 24.7 billion. In line with the recession, the steepest declines occurred in 2008 and 2009, but as the economy began its recovery and consumers began spending again, the revenue contraction decelerated. IBISWorld expects this upward momentum to carry into 2012.

In addition to poor spending conditions, increased external competition has further weakened Small Specialty Retail Stores industry demand. In the five years to 2012, mass merchandisers, warehouse clubs, discount department stores and online retailers have taken market share away from industry operators by providing convenient one-stop shopping and low prices for similar industry products, says Jose. These factors have turned many consumers away from small specialty stores, leading to reduced profitability. This poor performance has also caused underperforming retailers to exit the industry; the number of enterprises has declined from 136,896 in 2007 to an estimated 116,613 in 2012. The external competitors are able to maximize cost savings by purchasing large volumes of inventory at once, allowing them to offer heavily discounted products to consumers. As a result, specialty stores have experienced increased pressures to lower their product markups and absorb the associated losses in the attempt to match the lower prices of mass merchandisers. Still, small specialty retail stores can differentiate themselves through quality and range of products offered because external competitors typically only carry lower-quality goods, and often in a very limited range. So, industry operators can appeal to consumers by featuring a wide selection of high-quality products.

As the economy gains traction in its recovery, a rise in disposable income will likely encourage consumers to increase spending on quality products sold by industry operators. Such growth will be temporary, though, as the competition from external industries like department stores and e-commerce websites continues to erode demand. In addition, permanent price declines will likely keep profitability low in the five years to 2017.
