The present disclosure relates to a complex having a core-shell structure, a composition and a textile comprising the same, and a method for treating thrombosis, cancer, or wounds using the same. The complex having the core-shell structure comprises a core; and a shell layer covering a surface of the core; wherein the core is made of polypyrrole.

The present disclosure provides methods for generating tunable white light with controllable circadian energy performance. The methods use a plurality of LED to generate light with color points that fall within blue, yellow/green, red, and cyan color ranges, with each LED being driven with a separately controllable drive current in order to tune the generated light output. Different light emitting modes can be selected that utilize different combinations of the plurality of LED in order to tune the generated white light.

The present disclosure provides methods for generating tunable white light with controllable circadian energy performance. The methods use a plurality of LED strings to generate light with color points that fall within blue, yellow/green, red, and cyan color ranges, with each LED string being driven with a separately controllable drive current in order to tune the generated light output. Different light emitting modes can be selected that utilize different combinations of the plurality of LED strings in order to tune the generated white light.

Methods and systems for performing optogenetics using X-rays or ultrasound waves are provided. Visible-light-emitting nanophosphors can be provided to a sample, and X-ray stimulation can be used to stimulate the nanophosphors to emit visible light. Alternatively, ultrasonic waves can be provided to the sample to cause sonoluminescence, also resulting in emission of visible light, and this can be aided by the use of a chemiluminescent agent present in the sample. The emitted light can trigger changes in proteins that modulate membrane potentials in neuronal cells.

The invention relates to a glasses provided with a light source for illuminating at least a portion of the eye of a subject wearing the glasses and relates to a system comprising such a glasses. The invention further relates to a system comprising the glasses of the invention and further comprising an external device provided with a processor as well as a computer program which, in use, causes the processor to control the at least one light source in the glasses in accordance with a predetermined program, wherein preferably the desired program is chosen by a wearer of the glasses. The invention also relates to a glasses case. The invention also relates to the glasses of the invention for use in a method of treatment of Parkinson's Disease by phototherapy.

Certain exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure can provide an apparatus and method for generating at least one radiation can be provided. The exemplary apparatus and/or method can selectively kill and/or affect at least one virus. For example, a radiation source first arrangement can be provided which is configured to generate at least one radiation having one or more wavelengths provided in a range of about 200 nanometers (nm) to about 230 nm, and at least one second arrangement can be provided which is configured to prevent the at least one radiation from having any wavelength that is outside of the range can be provided or which can be substantially harmful to cells of the body.

The invention provides a laser system and method for administering multiple beams of laser energy in tissue treatment applications. The system administers the beams simultaneously in a distribution pattern of spatially separated overlapping and non-overlapping regions on a tissue. The simultaneous administration and distribution pattern permit the beams to propagate within a tissue without producing the light scattering effects that characterize the sequential application of multiple laser beams to a tissue.

This invention relates to a therapeutic device for treating a human or animal body, comprising an array of infrared-emitting elements in an attachment means for attaching to the body part to be treated, said infrared-emitting elements being in the form of sintered ceramic plates and made from a mixture of infrared-emitting oxides having specific spectral luminance covering at least a part of the 3-7 micrometer wavelength spectrum and having a peak wavelength between 3 and 7 micrometers, that provides an effective means to healing the body. A locally administrable heating means may be used for escalated healing effects.
