A solid oral nicotine formulation is disclosed, the formulation comprises a nicotine-ion exchange resin combination, and a salt comprising inorganic divalent cations, wherein the salt has a water-solubility of at least 5 grams per 100 mL of water measured at 25 degrees Celsius, atmospheric pressure and pH 7.0.

Methods for improving transgene in chloroplasts are disclosed along with improved transgenes so produced and methods of use thereof for the treatment of disease. Specifically, the methods comprising analyzing the native sequence of a nucleic acid encoding a protein of interest and replacing codons in said sequence with those preferentially used in psbA genes in chloroplasts in higher plants.

Pharmaceutical compositions comprising PYY (e.g., PYY(3-36) and analogs and variants thereof), satiety peptides, satiety hormones, metabolic hormones, and methods of treating metabolic diseases with such compositions are provided. Aspects include methods of increasing a feeling of fullness in patients treated with pharmaceutical compositions comprising PYY, PYY(3-36), satiety peptides, satiety hormones, metabolic hormones, and analogs, receptor antagonists and variants thereof.

The invention relates to a solid pharmaceutical tablet for oral delivery, the tablet comprising calcium carbonate in an amount of more than 30% by weight of the tablet and organic water-insoluble components in an amount of more than 20% by weight of the tablet, wherein the tablet is designed to be masticated into a coherent residual containing the organic water-insoluble components, and wherein the tablet is adapted to release more than 80% of the calcium carbonate within 5 minutes of mastication.

The present disclosure relates to compositions that are useful in the delivery of various materials. In particular, the compositions comprise a suspension wherein an internal phase material is surrounded by an external phase material. The internal phase specifically can be a hydrophilic material, and the external phase specifically can be a hydrophobic material. The materials are combined so that the internal phase is substantially encapsulated by the external phase such that release can be controlled in relation to osmotic pressure differentials. The suspension can be combined with a carrier, and various systems and products can be formed with the suspension and optional carrier, such as oral strips, spray delivery systems, smokeless tobacco products, aerosol delivery devices, cigarettes, and packaging.

Provided are edible products infused with an emulsion containing one or more active agents.

The present invention relates to compositions for mineralizing a dental surface, in particular tooth enamel. Methods of mineralizing hypomineralized lesions (including subsurface lesions) in the tooth enamel caused by dental caries, dental corrosion and fluorosis are also provided. In particular, the invention relates to a method of mineralizing a dental surface or subsurface comprising contacting the dental surface or subsurface with a compound that is capable of increasing or maintaining the pH of a solution and a mineralizing agent.

The present invention relates to compositions and their use for oral care. In particular, the compositions and methods are for maintaining oral health and/or treating various oral conditions such as gingivitis. The present invention relates to methods and uses of stabilized amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) and/or stabilized amorphous calcium fluoride phosphate (ACFP) in the preparation of a medicament for reducing pathogenic oral bacteria at an oral site in an individual; increasing commensal oral bacteria at an oral site in an individual; decreasing the proportion of pathogenic oral bacteria at an oral site in an individual; inhibiting oral dysbiosis; reducing gingival inflammation in an individual in need thereof; treating gingivitis in an individual in need thereof; and treating chronic gingivitis in an individual in need thereof.

The present invention relates to a nicotine delivery product comprising, or even consisting essentially of, a population of nicotine-loaded cation exchange resin particles, said population comprises at least 50% (w/w) particles having a size in the range of 90-300 micron which provides an improved nicotine stability to oral dosage forms comprising the nicotine delivery product. The invention furthermore relates to methods of producing the nicotine delivery product and the oral dosage forms and to the use of the nicotine delivery product.

The present invention generally relates to a sugar alcohol and cannabinoid complex, and methods to prepare this complex from cannabinoid oil comprising at least one cannabinoid. The complex is in solid form and may be used in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic formulations, and medical devices wherein solid forms of cannabinoid are desirable. This complex also enhances release of active cannabinoids in oral consumption. Methods to make this complex are also disclosed.
