It is expected as prophetically depicted by the dashed line in
[0150] A preferred CBD drink embodiment is prepared according to a continuous computer controlled manufacturing process (see
[0151] NuAqua CBD Drink Beverage Example
[0152] One CBD (cannabidiol) drink embodiment of the present invention comprises CBD, Sodium carbonate, and small amounts of other electrolytes as is detailed below made using ultrapure water. Below Example CBD Drink composition is for a 500 milliliter (ml) CBD Drink container contains ingredients a, b, c and d below.
[0153] (a) CBD: In a 500 ml ( liter, 16.9 fluid ounces) CBD drink embodiments of the present invention, the CBD drink may contain an amount of CBD (in milligrams) which is selected from the group consisting of 1 mg, 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg, 20 mg, 25 mg, 30 mg, 40 mg, 60 mg, 70 mg, 80 mg, 90 mg, 100 mg, 150 mg and any combination thereof. Note than an ingestion of more than 1,500 mg CBD per day without the supervision of a medical doctor is reported to be unsafe (Devinsky, 2015). A preferred amount of CBD per 500 ml CBD drink embodiment of the present invention is between 10 mg to 30 mg CBD.
[0154] Preparation of a CBD Isolate from Cannabis Plants:
[0155] The preferred physical state of the CBD is a crystalline powder isolated from young Cannabis plants harvested to have a low THCA so the amount of THC formed during processing is less than 0.3%, more preferably less than 0.1%. Preferably the low THC composition young Cannabis plants are grown without toxic fertilizers or chemical pesticides and are pathogen free. The plants are harvested as a food grade product, bagged, dried, pulverized, stored to avoid excessive heat.
[0156] Liquid Carbon Dioxide Extraction of CBD:
[0157] The Cannabis plant material later is extracted with liquid carbon dioxide kept at a sufficient pressure so that the carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) is not simply a gas. There are three methods for using carbon dioxide as an extraction medium that are known as supercritical, subcritical and mid-critical CO.sub.2 methods. The supercritical CO.sub.2 method is safe and provides a pure end product. The supercritical CO.sub.2 is used as nontoxic solvent and the process sues freezing and compressor equipment to convert CO.sub.2 gas into a supercritical cold liquid state. Carbon dioxide becomes liquefied below 69 degrees Fahrenheit at a pressure of more than 75 pounds per square inch (psi). Then both the temperature and the pressure are increased to make the liquid carbon dioxide supercritical. This is when the CO.sub.2 has properties between a gas and liquid. It fills container as if a gas while having a liquid's density. The supercritical carbon dioxide is mixed with the Cannabis plant material and supercritical the CO.sub.2 extract the essential trichomes and terpene oils from the plant. The CO.sub.2 liquid gets returned to a storage tank for using again.
[0158] Cold Ethanol Extraction of (the CBD Oil from the Liquid CO.sub.2 Extraction):
[0159] Left over carbon dioxide from the CBD oil from the liquid CO.sub.2 extraction is allowed to dissipate. To the CBD oil is added ethanol cooled to a low temperature (for example between 0 to 50 centigrade). At such low temperatures in ethanol, waxes present in the CBD oil are a solid which floats on the top of the cold ethanol and the solid waxes can be filtered away. Then the ethanolic extract may be vacuum dried to yield a crystalline CBD isolate which actually contains the CBD as its carboxylic acid form which is the CBDH.
[0160] Decarboxylation of the CBDH to Produce CBD:
[0161] CBDH is heated under vacuum to a temperature of between 110 to 145 degrees Centigrade, most preferably heated to about 115 degrees Centigrade which is close to 240 degrees Fahrenheit. This preferred temperature is Given in Decarboxylation: The Best Guide You'll Ever ReadCannabis 101 (See link https://www.marijuanabreak.com/decarboxylation) which states The mystery of the decrabing [decarboxylating] temperature was somewhat solved thanks to the efforts of Marijuana Growers HQ. In 2012, they tested cannabis trim and kief at 240 degrees for 30 and 60 minutes. They chose 240 degrees because, during their research, they discovered that the vapor point of all major terpenes, flavonoids, and cannabinoids was over 246.2 degrees. As consumer grade ovens are not that reliable when reading temperatures, they played it safe by staying a few degrees below. In the process of decarboxylation of the CBDH (CBD acid) to CBD, there is a production of carbon dioxide gas which is removed by the decarboxylation reaction being conducted under vacuum. The remaining material should contain CBD and some of the aromatic terpenes. The CBD isolate has been found to have a particle size of between about 1500 to 300 nanometers prior to it being nanosized in Step 8 process by hollow cylinder 1218,
[0162] (b) Sodium Carbonate: In a CBD drink embodiment of the present invention, the drink may have a pH bewteen 8.5 to 11.5 due to the presence of sodium carbonate in the drink. If a lower drink pH is desired then the amount of sodium carbonate to CBD should be reduced.
[0163] (c) Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts Electrolyte Concentrate: In a 500 ml CBD drink embodiment of the present invention, the drink will contain some amounts of electrolytes using an electrolyte concentrate which is called Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts Electrolyte Concentrate. This concentrate of electrolytes is used to supply each 500 ml. of the CBD drink the following amounts of electrolytes: between about 0.01 to about 1 mg. magnesium ion, 0.03 to about 1 mg. chloride ion, 0.008 to about 0.1 mg. potassium ion, 0.001 to about 0.1 mg. sulfate ion, 0.05 to about 1 microgram boron, and some other minor ions including citrate ion. In one preferred embodiment, the CBD drink per 500 ml. is made using Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts Electrolyte Concentrate to supply each 500 ml. drink effectively with 0.1 mg. magnesium ion, 0.3 mg. chloride ion, 0.08 mg. potassium ion, 0.01 mg. sulfate ion, 0.5 micrograms boron, and some other minor ions including citrate ion. Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts Electrolyte Concentrate is obtained from Trace Minerals Research, Roy, Utah. Note that an eight oz. fluid container of the Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts Electrolyte Concentrate contains magnesium 190 mg., chloride 600 mg., sodium 105 mg., potassium 150 mg., sulfate 20 mg., boron 950 micrograms, and some non-GMO citric acid. Note that in the preferred embodiment that 10 fluid oz. of Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts Electrolyte Concentrate is added to a 300 gallon batch to become the preferred embodiment CBD drink.
[0164] (d) ConcenTrace Trace Mineral Drops: In a 500 ml CBD drink embodiment of the present invention, the drink will contain some amounts of electrolytes using an electrolyte concentrate ConcenTrace Trace Mineral Drops. This concentrate of electrolytes is used to supply each 500 ml. of the CBD drink the following amounts of electrolytes: between about magnesium ion about 0.3 to 10 mg, chloride ion about 1 to 10 mg, sodium ion about 0.01 to 1 mg, potassium ion about 0.01 to 1 mg, sulfate ion about 0.05 to 1 mg, boron about 1 to 100 micrograms. ConcenTrace Trace Mineral Drops, Trace Mineral Research, Roy, Utah. In one preferred embodiment, the CBD drink per 500 ml. is made using ConcenTrace Trace Mineral Drops to supply each 500 ml. of the CBD drink the following amounts of electrolytes: magnesium ion 3.1 mg, chloride ion 8.1 mg, sodium ion 0.06 mg, potassium ion 0.04 mg, sulfate ion 0.5 mg, boron 0.01 mg. ConcenTrace Trace Mineral Drops is obtained from Trace Mineral Research, Roy, Utah.

Note that in the preferred embodiment that 2 fluid oz. of ConcenTrace Trace Mineral Drops is added to a 300 gallon batch to become the preferred embodiment CBD drink.
[0165] CBD Drink Example Formulation Examples
Basic Example 1Formulation To Make 300 Gallons of CBD Drink Beverage
[0166] Note that 1 gallon of a CBD Concentrate is made for each 300 gallons of CBD drink beverage to be produced using one of the process apparatuses depicted in
Step A is to slowly add 60 grams of food-grade sodium carbonate powder (anhydrous) into one half gallon of mixing freshly prepared ultrapure water (UPW). Allow the sodium carbonate to completely dissolve.
Step B is to then add 10 fluid ounces of 40K Volts Trace Minerals liquid into the mixing sodium carbonate solution. The solution will go milky due to magnesium carbonate formation.
Step C is to then add 2 fluid ounces of ConcenTrace trace minerals fluid into the mixing sodium carbonate solution. The solution will go milky due to magnesium carbonate formation.
Step D is to then add 48 grams of Cannabidiol (CBD) Isolate powder (99.8-100% pure) into the mixing sodium carbonate solution with trace minerals. The CBD will float and eventually sink into the liquid. If a blender is used the whipping in air from the blender will generate foam. Note48 grams CBD diluted into 300 gallons of fluid (1,200 quarts) means each quart will contain 40 mg of CBD. Each NuAqua bottle holds 16.9 fluid ounces (500 ml) and thus about 21 mg CBD/16.9 ounce Nu Aqua bottle.
Step E is when the CBD has sunken below the liquid surface, then add ultrapure water to bring the total volume of the CBD Concentrate to 1 gallon. Now mix the ingredients at least hour. None of the CBD should be floating and when mixing is stopped, it will be apparent that the CBD is present as a suspension of which some will slowly settle and some will remain suspended. If left overnight, all of the CBD will settle to the bottom like a fine silt.
Step F is to reduce the particle size of the CBD in the suspension by using a Ross Model HSM-703X-10 Ultra-High Shear Mixer, Hauppauge, N.Y. at a rotor speed between 1,000-14,000 rpm. The Ross will heat the CBD Concentrate gradually. Preferably the CBD concentrate is allowed to flow by gravity through the Ross rotor spinning at 13,000 rpm. The passage of the CBD Concentrate through the Ross needs to be done between 3-6 times. However, foam is generated which make the CBD Concentrate a viscous foam and difficult to manage without spilling losses.
Step G is to use a single stage vacuum oil pump to create a sufficiently strong vacuum to the Ross-Sheared foamy CBD Concentrate that it can eventually boil gently at room temperature. To do the vacuum step, first pour all of the 1 gallon foamy CBD Concentrate in a 3-5 gallon strong glass-walled carboy jug leaving a lot of air space. During strong vacuum, the foam will expand and the CBD concentrate will slowly boil at room temperature due to the strong vacuum. The vacuum may be needed to continue for a few minutes after the CBD Concentrate has been boiling. When the vacuum is removed, the foam will completely disappear. Any shaking of the de-foamed CBD Concentrate will cause the very fine particles of the CBD suspension catch an air bubble and be air-lifted to float on the liquid top surface.
Step H is to keep the fine suspension of CBD in the CBD Concentrate gently mixing so the fine particulate suspension of CBD swims in a uniform state of suspension while it is being withdrawn using a titration pump (LMI Pump Model No. C771-26S Series C Chemical Metering Pump, Maximum Flow 10 Gallons per Hour @ 80 PSI, Maximum 100 strokes per minute, Maximum Viscosity 400 CPS, Pulse Input with Dual Manual Control, 4FVFour Function Valve, Ivyland, Pa.) to blend the CBD Concentrate in a ratio of 1 part CBD Concentrate to 300 parts freshly-prepared Ultrapure Water during a Step I which is occurs when the CBD Concentrate is being added in a very metered fashion using one of the process apparatuses depicted in
Basic Example 2Formulation To Make 300 Gallons of CBD Drink Beverage
[0167] The amount of sodium carbonate can be varied to shift the pH and or the amount of CBD can be changed so that the beverage contains more or less CBD. The ratio of the mass of sodium carbonate used to the mass of CBD is a consideration. If insufficient sodium carbonate is used then the CBD may not wet sufficiently to become in suspension. If too much sodium carbonate is used then the drink will become salty and taste bad.
[0168] Since CBD has a double bond, it is sensitive to oxidation by ozone. It is preferable to simply sterilize all tanks, pumps, and piping to the bottling machine in advance with ozonated water.
[0169] CBD NanoParticles in Bottled NuAqua Beverage Drink Are Size Stable
[0170] Malvern Zetasizer DLS measurements on 12 bottles of NuAqua were conducted on Apr. 27, 2020 to measure the CBD therapeutic particle size so as to judge the stability of the exterior ultrapurewater clustering on the CBD particles. Also if the ultrapurewater-clustered CBD particles were agglomerating or crystallizing in some way then this would cause a detectable change in the ultrapurewater-cluster CBD particle size as well. For background control ultrapurewater-clustered CBD particle size data, two production batches are being used here for baseline size data. First, an experimental 300 gallon production batch of Nu Aqua was produced Aug. 20, 2019 which formed ultrapurewater-clustered CBD particles with a median particle size of 158 nanometers (report in

Conclusion
[0174] 1. Overall the median value for 78% of the Nu Aqua product ultrapurewater-clustered CBD particles is 146 nanometers in size and for 20% of the particles is 490 nanometers.
2. If fresh NuAqua ultrapurewater-clustered CBD particles are about 160 nanometer size, then the measurements on NuAqua that is 5-7 months old suggest that the majority (78% of the Nu Aqua ultrapurewater-clustered CBD particles does not change their size.
3. Perhaps 20% of the NuAqua ultrapurewater-clustered CBD particles increase but overall the Nu Aqua ultrapurewater-clustered CBD nanoparticles are surprisingly time stable in size compared with Stukelj et al., 2019 study.
[0175] Present inventors process employed (a) sodium carbonate with ultrapure water to create an aqueous CBD suspension, (b) Ross ultra-high speed shear-mixing to reduce the size of the suspended CBD particles, and (c) the hollow cylinder jet nozzle process to reduce the thickness of the ultrapurewater-clustering on the CBD particles.
[0176] Stukelj 2019 employed (a) antisolvent precipitation process to dissolve CBD particles in an organic solvent and then quickly precipitate the CBD amorphously using a large amount of water, and (b) ultrasonication to create 700 nanometer CBD suspension particles in di-ionized water The Stukelj CBD nanoparticles regardless of organic solvent conditions all double in size in 24 hours. Stukelj reports and promotes one to use a mixture of Span 80/Tween 80 surfactants to create very time stable 70 nanometer CBD nanoparticle. However, the Stukelj surfactants turns the solution so very cloudy, that a conventional surfactant is not an attractive viable answer. Thus the storage size stability of the Nu Aqua ultrapurewater-clustered CBD nanoparticles is surprisingly effective way to make time stable CBD nanoparticles.
Basic Example 3Using Sodium Carbonate to Make Aqueous Suspension of CBD
[0177] According to the processes depicted in
[0178] To make the 2000 gallon experimental batch of the drink product, the 7 gallons of the concentrate of the CBD and the minerals were blended with 2000 gallons of ultra-pure water using a static mixing tube 1228 as the blending device. The rate of introduction of the Concentrate was set so that the 7 gallons of Concentrate blended into the 200 gallons of UPW at a flow rate which was 1/300.sup.th of the bulk UPW flow rate thru the static mixing tube 1228. The static mixing tube 1228 is depicted in the apparatus depicted in
[0179] The experimental batch was sampled three times during its production to make the drink product, which comprises a mixture of nanosized clusters of water containing CBD and nanosized clusters of water containing trace minerals. The production process ran 137 minutes in this experiment to blend 7 gallons of the Concentrate into 200 gallons of UPW. The total volume of 2007 gallons was sent to a holding tank. The process of pumping of the blend through the Hollow Cylinders 1218 and 2322 which are in a series configuration as depicted in
[0180] The Malvern data for this experimental batch suggested that the process may be suitable for making a nanosized CBD drink product from UPW by using the apparatus depicted in
[0181] In some embodiments another carbonate salt may be substituted for the sodium carbonate to obtain the alkalinizing aqueous medium for creating the aqueous suspension of CBD in UPW. Another carbonate salt may be substituted for the sodium carbonate to obtain the alkalinizing aqueous medium for creating the aqueous suspension of CBD in a water other than UPW, such as for example a reverse osmosis (RO) water, distilled water, carbon filtered water, or a water that has been filtered using a submicron filter. This alkalinizing anion may be selected from the group consisting of a carbonate, a phosphate, a sulfate, a methanesulfonate, a conjugate base of a polyprotic acid, a dicarboxylate, a tricarboxylate, a di-sulfate, a di-phosphate, a phosphonate, a sulfonate, an oxalate, a malonate, a citrate, an isocitrate, a maleate, a succinate, a fumarate, an itaconate, a glucuronate, an aspartate, a glutamate, a borate, a boronate ester, a hydroxide, and any combination thereof.

In some embodiments of the present invention the chemicals may be used to improve the suspension of the CBD function by increasing the pH (alkalinizing) of the Concentrate and also comprise anionic molecules which function as a pH buffer.
[0182] To reduce or eliminate a fraction of the water clusters containing CBD particles exceeding a size of 500 nanometers, some embodiments of the present invention include a process step of homogenization employing a Ross Homogenizer (Haupauge, N.Y.) or employing a Bee International Homogenizer (South Easton, Mass.) as a means for homogenizing the aqueous CBD Concentrate prior to the blending of the Concentrate into the bulk UPW.
[0183] Drink embodiments of the present invention may comprise one or more cannabinoids selected from the group consisting of CBG, CBGM, CBGV, CBC, CBD, CBDM, CBDV, CBD-CI, THC, THC-C4, THCV, THC-C1, Delta-7-cis-iso-tetrahydrocannabivarin, Delta-8-THC, CBLA, CBL-V, CBE, CBN, CBNM, CBN-C4, CBV, CBN-C2, CBN-C1, CBND, CBVD, CBT, 10-ethoxy-9-hydroxy-delta-6a-tetrahydrocannabinol, 8,9-Dihydroxy-delta-6a-tetrahydrocannabinol, CBTV, CBTVE, DCBF, CBF, CBCN, OTHC, cis-THC, OH-iso-HHCV, CBR, triOH-THC, and any combination thereof. For some embodiments of the present invention the amount of the cannabinoids in a 500 milliliter drink may be selected to be between 0.01 milligrams to about 500 milligrams.
[0184] One or more terpenoids may be selected from the group of terpenoids listed in Table 2 of the present specification for use in a formulation embodiment of the present invention. For example, a few drops of selected terpenoids may added to a drink embodiment of the invention to add a flavor and/or scent. For some invention embodiments, the volume amount of terpenoids added to a 500 milliliter drink embodiment of the invention could be between 2 microliters to about 250 microliters, but in some embodiments could be perhaps one milliliter or more. The additions of small volumes of terpenoids is useful as a means for adding a characteristic scent that would be smelled immediately as the bottle is opened as some fraction of the terpenoid(s) will tend to float as an oil film on the top surface of the aqueous drink.
[0185] For some embodiments of the present invention, the cannabinoids which are present in a particular hemp oil Cannabis plant extract, can be used after a further partial extraction into an alkaline aqueous medium or a more complete extraction by a repeated extraction process with multiple aliquot extracts of the alkaline aqueous medium as means to partition the cannabinoids between the alkaline aqueous phase and the hemp oil phase as may be needed in a particular drink product embodiment of the present invention.

[0195] Continuous Manufacturing Processes for Making Nano-sized CBD in Nanowater.
[0196] Some embodiments of the present invention are continuous manufacturing processes for making nanowater based aqueous cannabinoid compositions.
[0197] CBD is a cannabinoid derived from the Cannabis plant are often referred to as the phytocannabinoids. Cannabis is the genus name and there are pure and hybrid varieties. Three Cannabis species are known Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica and Cannabis ruderalis. Cannabis varieties have been developed which have accentuated plant characteristics and/or altered levels of cannabinoids. Cannabis varieties are branded by growers to distinguish the plant's taste, color, smell, and origin. Several varieties of Cannabis also known as hemp have a very low cannabinoid content but are used for fiber and seeds. There are at least five chemo-taxonomic types of Cannabis: (1) a Cannabis with high levels of THC, (2) a Cannabis which is more fibrous and has higher levels of CBD, (3) a Cannabis with intermediate levels of THC and CBD, (4) a Cannabis with a high level of cannabigerol (CBG), and a Cannabis with a very low cannabinoid levels (Canabis strains, Wikipedia, 2019).
[0198] Hybrid Varieties of Cannabis Provide Different Amounts of CBD.
[0199] Hybrid varieties of cannabis are known with varying ratios of the species Cannabis indica, Cannabis sativa, and Cannabis ruderalis. The White Widow hybrid has a 60% indica and 40% sativa ancestry and retains some traits from both parental types. There are also commercial crossbred hybrids which contain a mix of both ruderalis, indica or sativa genes, and they are usually auto-flowering. They are bred for the medicinal cannabis market. Also there is an early auto-flowering hybrid known as Lowryder which retains the flowering behavior of ruderalis plants while producing large amounts of THC and CBD. When cannabis is cultivated for its psychoactive or medicinal properties, male Cannabis plants are often separated from the female Cannabis plants to avoid fertilization of the female plants so as to facilitate flowering or simply to control breeding. Male plant pollen can be stored until needed for breeding. To stabilize a cannabis variety a technique known as cubing is used. The technique breeds a selected-trait hybrid plant with a parent plant. The same selected-traits are sought in the inbred offspring, and then this process is repeated usually for three or more generations to stabilize the variety's genetics. (Canabis strains, Wikipedia, 2019).
[0200] Cannabis breeders distinctly name their strains to differentiate them from their competitors' strains and popular strains may have a name similar to their parent strain. Some known cannabis strains are: (1) Acapulco Gold which is a golden-leafed Cannabis sativa strain originally from Acapulco, southwest Mexico; (2) Bedrocan which is a Dutch medical marijuana strain of Cannabis sativa with 22% THC and 1% CBD that is dispensed through pharmacies to patients with a prescription; (3) Blue Dream which is a hybrid cannabis strain for medical and recreational uses; (4) Charlotte's Web which is a high CBD Cannabis strain with less than 0.3% THC that is sold as an extract by the Stanley brothers, CO, USA; (5) Purple Kush which is a short Cannabis indica strain grown indoors; (6) Skunk which is a strong smelling hybrid of Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica.grown indoors; and (7) Sour Diesel is a Cannabis sativa dominant hybrid strain. (Canabis strains, Wikipedia, 2019).
[0201] Cannabis is the genus name of plants containing CBD and THC as well as a large number of other cannabinoids and terpenes. Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa are known species and marijuana is a generic name for both species. About 483 chemical compounds have been identified which are unique to Cannabis. This includes more than 66 cannabinoids and about 140 terpenes. For the present invention the term cannabinoid shall include a group of C21 terpenophenolic compounds found in the Cannabis plants. Plant cannabinoids are also called phytocannabinoids.
[0202] The Cannabis plant synthesizes at least eight cannabinoid acids which are below named. Cannabis cannabinoid precursors during biosynthesis form CBGA which in turn is converted into THCA, CBDA, and CBCA. When these three cannabinoids are subjected to heat they are decarboxylated to respectively form THC, CBD, and CBC. Cannabis cannabinoid precursors during biosynthesis also form CBGVA which in turn is converted into THCVA, CBDVA, and CBCVA and as above mentioned, when these three cannabinoids are subjected to heat they become decarboxylated to respectively form THCV, CBDV, and CBCV. [0203] CBGA (Cannabigerolic acid) [0204] THCA (.sup.9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) [0205] CBDA (Cannabidiolic add) [0206] CBCA (Cannabichromenenic acid) [0207] CBGVA (Cannabigerovarinic acid) [0208] THCVA (Tetrahydrocanabivarinic acid) [0209] CBDVA (Cannabidivarinic acid) [0210] CBCVA (Cannabichromevarinic acid)
[0211] The 66 cannabinoids found in Cannabis have been divided into 10 subclasses by Brenneisen (2007) Table 1 presented below.

[0214] Invention Attributes
[0215] Embodiments of the present invention have a number of useful and novel properties. The process creates nano-sized clusters of water molecules which envelope non-H.sub.2O substances which have been added in the process of the invention. For example, some process embodiments of the invention can be used to make nano-sized clusters of water molecules enveloping nano-sized particles of CBD. Based on Malvern Zetasizer measurements, the nano-sized clusters of water molecules enveloping nano-sized particles of CBD have a measured size of between about 10 nanometers to about 200 nanometers. Surprisingly, the nanosize of these products are stable for years. Also surprising is the increased bioavailability of these nanosized products of the invention which appear to be a more efficient cellular delivery system for particles or nutritional agents. Interestingly, nanosized products of the invention are stable and functional in both ionic and non-ionic environments. The size range of the nano-sized products depends upon the kind of non-H.sub.2O substance. The size of the nano-sized products commonly has been measured to be between about 5 nm to about 200 nm range.
[0216] Example Utility Embodiments of the Present Invention
[0217] Some example embodiments of the present invention are a hydration drink for mammals including humans and animals. Drinks for meals, for water bottles, for water coolers, for beverages sold in bottles, beer, wineall can have a higher bioavailability when manufactured using an embodiment process of the invention. Higher bioavailability beverages are needed by athletes, outdoors persons, office workers, people camping and hiking.
[0218] Some embodiments of the present invention are expected to be an effective means for increasing growth and body weight in mammals including humans and farm animals, such as chickens, pigs, and cattle. It is anticipated that some embodiments of the present invention can greatly improve fish and seafood farms using large ponds of nanowater containing nano-sized minerals and food particles. Other embodiments of the present invention are expected to be useful as a means for stimulating root and leaf development in plants, increasing growth rates, increasing heat tolerance, and drought tolerance. Invention embodiments are also expected to be useful for improving the quality and yields of organic foods grown from plants and fruit production from trees. It is hypothesized that this may be due to the increased rates of water uptake, mineral uptake, and photosynthesis by plants and trees that will allow them to use less water, smaller amounts of fertilizer, and need less hours of sunlight to grow.
[0219] Some embodiments of the present invention, may be more effective as a source of water for making an isotonic saline for intravenous use in a mammal. Some pharmaceutical formulation embodiments of the present invention formulated using nanowater and a pharmaceutical drug may be expected to have improved pharmacokinetics including increased bioavailability. The expected number of useful applications of some embodiments of the invention is expected to become a result of greater usefulness of nanowater containing nano-sized non-H.sub.2O ingredients in hospital settings including operations involving heart transplants, liver transplants, lung transplants, and kidney transplants. In addition, some embodiments of the present invention are expected to replace current forms of water (deionized water, doubly-distilled water, and sterile water products) used in cell culture, tissue, and organ studies. In addition, when an organ donor provides urgently needed organs, the organ retrieval, hours of transport and storage may be improved when the source of water used to prepare the saline used to incubate the organ is made from a nanowater embodiment of the present invention.
[0220] It is contemplated that specific embodiments of the present invention may use nano-sized particles in ultra-purified water as a means for increasing oral drug bioavailability, and used as a means for increasing drug potency, and lowering the dosing of the mammalian patient with a drug. The use of lesser amounts of a drug is expected to be beneficial by causing a lower drug loading of the patient and less drug side effects, less development of metabolic, psychological tolerance and less liver metabolic stress. For example, nano-sized particles of a selected drug in ultra-purified water could be used as a means for increasing drug potency of antibiotics, or analgesics.

[0223] In some embodiments of the present invention, an administration of nano-sized particles of a selected anti-inflammatory drug in ultra-purified water in combination with an immune system dis-inhibitor in ultra-purified water could be a therapeutic means for more effectively treating shock and inflammation caused from a severe trauma to a mammal.
[0224] Example of the Steps of a Process for a Nano-water Containing a Nano-sized Non-H.sub.2O Ingredient Embodiment of the Present Invention in Accordance with the List of Steps Depicted in
[0225] Process Step 1 is Selecting a Suitable Water Supply (See
[0226] Process Step 1 is selecting a suitable water supply to purify to make ultrapure water (UPW) in a four-step process. By the present invention, an example process for making most embodiments of the present invention, involves a first process step which is selecting a suitable water supply and preferably this is a fresh water supply. If one must begin the process by selecting a sea water or high salt containing water as a water supply then a distilling of or an evaporating of a salt-containing water is a means for making a fresh water condensate that can be used as a fresh water supply. A preferred fresh water supply is safe to drink and includes water from a municipal treated water supply, a fresh water lake, a fresh water river, or an uncontaminated ground water supply. Safe to drink means the fresh water has been tested to determine if the water supply is orally non-toxic to a mammal, meaning the safe to drink water contains nil levels or amounts of pathogenic microorganisms and toxic chemicals.
[0227] For example, a safe to drink fresh water supply preferably has immeasurable (meaning nil) levels/amounts of the following pathogens and toxins: (a) pathogenic bacteria (for example fecal coliform), viruses (for example hepatitis viruses, hemorrhagic viruses, retroviruses such as AIDS virus), fungi, mycoplasm, protozoa, prokaryotes, Protista, parasites, microorganisms causing infectious diseases, and their spores, eggs, DNA, RNA, or related reproductive constituents, prions, (b) toxic biochemical including toxic proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, toxic nucleic acids, known carcinogens, and chemotherapy drugs; (c) toxic inorganic chemicals (soluble and insoluble in water, and including toxic heavy metals) and their particles; (d) toxic organic chemicals (soluble and insoluble in water, and pesticides) and their particles; (e) non-water organic liquids (miscible and immiscible); (f) radioactive minerals, and (g) toxic gases including ammonia, arsenic pentafluoride, arsine, bis(trifluoromethyl)peroxide, boron tribromide, boron trichloride, boron trifluoride, bromine, bromine chloride, boromethane, carbon monoxide, chlorine, chlorine pentafluoride, chlorine trifluoride, chloropicrin, cyanogen, cyanogen chloride, diazomethane, diborane, dichloroacetylene, dichlorosilane, fluorine, formaldehyde, germane, hexylethyl tetraphosphate, hydrogen azide, hydrogen cyanide, hydrogen selenide, hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen telluride, nickel tetracarbonyl, nitrogen dioxide, osmium tetroxide, oxygen difluoride, perfluroisobuytlene, phosgene, phosphine, phosphorus pentafluoride, selenium hexafluoride, silicon hexafluoride, silicon tetrachloride, stilbene, disulfur decafluoride, sulfur tetrafluoride, tellurium hexafluoride, tetraethyl pyrophosphate, tetraethyl dithiopyrophosphate, trifluoroacetyl chloride, tungsten hexafluroide, and radon. A nil levels or nil amounts means that the level or amount is so low that it is technically immeasurable or undetectable.
[0228] Process Step 2A is a Carbon Filtering of the Suitable Water Supply (See
[0229]
[0230] Process Step 2B is an Optional Slow Sand Filter Treatment (See
[0231] Optionally, a Process Step 2B is added for a filtering of the suitable water supply with a slow sand filter. If the water supply is low quality water then a process of the filtering of the suitable water supply from Process Step 1 with a slow sand filter process Step 2B may be necessary prior to or following the step of filtering of the suitable water supply with the carbon filtration process. For example, the slow sand filter can be used in water purification for treating raw water to produce a potable product. The slow sand filter may be 3-6 feet deep, and rectangular or cylindrical in cross section. The length and breadth of the tanks will be in part determined by the flow rate desired by the filters, which typically have a loading rate of 50-100 gallons per hour per square yard (or 0.2-0.4 cubic yards per square yard per hour). A slow sand filter works through the formation of a gelatinous layer (or biofilm) called the hypogeal layer or Schmutzdecke in the top few millimeters of the fine sand layer. The Schmutzdecke is formed in the first 10-20 days of operation and consists of bacteria, fungi, protozoa, rotifera and a range of aquatic insect larvae. As an epigeal biofilm ages, more algae tend to develop and larger aquatic organisms may be present including some bryozoa, snails and annelid worms. The surface biofilm is the layer that provides the effective purification in potable water treatment, the underlying sand providing the support medium for this biological treatment layer. As water passes through the hypogeal layer, particles of foreign matter are trapped in the mucilaginous matrix and soluble organic material is adsorbed. The contaminants in the water coming into the slow sand filter are metabolized by the bacteria, fungi and protozoa. The water produced from an efficient slow sand filter can have a 90-99% bacterial cell count reduction. Slow sand filters gradually lose their performance as the biofilm thickens and thereby reduces the rate of flow through the filter. Eventually, it is necessary to refurbish the filter. Two methods are commonly used to do this. In the first, the top few millimeters of fine sand is scraped off to expose a new layer of clean sand. Water is then decanted back into the filter and re-circulated for a few hours to allow a new biofilm to develop. The filter is then filled to full volume and brought back into service. The second method, sometimes called wet harrowing, involves lowering the water level to just above the hypogeal layer, stirring the sand; thus precipitating any solids held in that layer and allowing the remaining water to wash through the sand. The filter column is then filled to full capacity and brought back into service. Wet harrowing can allow the filter to be brought back into service more quickly. Unlike other water filtration technologies that produce water on demand, slow sand filters produce water at a slow, constant flow rate and are usually used in conjunction with a storage tank for peak usage. Slow sand filters are recognized by the World Health Organization, Oxfam, and the United States Environmental Protection Agency as being superior technology for the treatment of surface water sources. According to the World Health Organization, Under suitable circumstances, slow sand filtration may be not only the cheapest and simplest but also the most efficient method of water treatment. (Wikipedia, Slow Sand Filter).
[0232] Process Step 3 is a Reverse Osmosis Water Purification (See
[0233] Process Step 3 is performing a reverse osmosis water purification technology that uses, for example, a semipermeable membrane to remove ions, molecules and larger particles from drinking water (see
[0234] In the normal osmosis process, the solvent naturally moves from an area of low solute concentration (high water potential), through a membrane, to an area of high solute concentration (low water potential). The driving force for the movement of the solvent is the reduction in the free energy of the system when the difference in solvent concentration on either side of a membrane is reduced, generating osmotic pressure due to the solvent moving into the more concentrated solution. Applying an external pressure to reverse the natural flow of pure solvent, thus, is reverse osmosis. The process is similar to other membrane technology applications. However, key differences are found between reverse osmosis and filtration. The predominant removal mechanism in membrane filtration is straining, or size exclusion, so the process can theoretically achieve perfect efficiency regardless of parameters such as the solution's pressure and concentration. Reverse osmosis also involves diffusion, making the process dependent on pressure, flow rate, and other conditions. Reverse osmosis is most commonly known for its use in drinking water purification from seawater, removing the salt and other effluent materials from the water molecules. Rain water collected from storm drains is purified with reverse osmosis water processors and used for landscape irrigation and industrial cooling as a solution to the problem of water shortages. It is also used to clean effluent and brackish groundwater. The effluent in larger volumes (more than 500 m3/day) should be treated in an effluent treatment plant first, and then the clear effluent is subjected to reverse osmosis system. Treatment cost is reduced significantly and membrane life of the reverse osmosis system is increased. The process of reverse osmosis can be used for the production of deionized water. Reverse osmosis process for water purification does not require thermal energy. Flow-through reverse osmosis systems can be regulated by high-pressure pumps. The recovery of purified water depends upon various factors, including membrane sizes, membrane pore size, temperature, operating pressure, and membrane surface area. John Cadotte, of FilmTec Corporation, discovered that membranes with particularly high flux and low salt passage could be made, for example, by an interfacial polymerization of m-phenylene diamine and trimesoyl chloride. For these reverse osmosis membranes, an activated carbon filter to trap organic chemicals and chlorine, which will attack and degrade thin film composite membrane reverse osmosis membranes.
[0235] Formally, reverse osmosis is the process of forcing a solvent from a region of high solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane to a region of low solute concentration by applying a pressure in excess of the osmotic pressure. The largest and most important application of reverse osmosis is the separation of pure water from seawater and brackish waters; seawater or brackish water is pressurized against one surface of the membrane, causing transport of salt-depleted water across the membrane and emergence of potable drinking water from the low-pressure side. The membranes used for reverse osmosis have a dense layer in the polymer matrixeither the skin of an asymmetric membrane or an interfacially polymerized layer within a thin-film-composite membranewhere the separation occurs. In most cases, the membrane is designed to allow only water to pass through this dense layer while preventing the passage of solutes (such as salt ions). This process requires that a high pressure be exerted on the high concentration side of the membrane, usually 2-17 bar (30-250 psi) for fresh and brackish water, and 40-82 bar (600-1200 psi) for seawater, which has around 27 bar (390 psi) natural osmotic pressure that must be overcome. This process is best known for its use in desalination (removing the salt and other minerals from sea water to produce fresh water), but since the early 1970s, it has also been used to purify fresh water for medical, industrial, and domestic applications.
[0236] However, in some systems, an alternative method for performing Process Step 3 of the present invention is that the carbon pre-filter is omitted, and a cellulose triacetate membrane is used. CTA (cellulose triacetate) is a paper by-product membrane bonded to a synthetic layer and is made to allow contact with chlorine in the water. Up to 50% of the seawater input can be recovered as fresh water, though lower recoveries may reduce membrane fouling and energy consumption. High pressure pumpThe high pressure pump supplies the pressure needed to push water through the membrane, even as the membrane rejects the passage of salt through it. Typical pressures for brackish water range from 1.6 to 2.6 MPa (225 to 376 psi). In the case of seawater, they range from 5.5 to 8 MPa (800 to 1,180 psi).
[0237] Membrane assembly: The layers of a membraneThe membrane assembly consists of a pressure vessel with a membrane that allows feed water to be pressed against it. The membrane must be strong enough to withstand whatever pressure is applied against it. Reverse osmosis membranes are made in a variety of physical configurations, with the two most common configurations being spiral-wound and hollow-fiber. Only a part of the saline feed water pumped into the membrane assembly passes through the membrane with the salt removed. The remaining concentrate flow passes along the saline side of the membrane to flush away the concentrated salt solution. The percentage of desalinated water produced versus the saline water feed flow is known as the recovery ratio. This varies with the salinity of the feed water and the system design parameters: typically 20% for small seawater systems, 40%-50% for larger seawater systems, and 80%-85% for brackish water. The concentrate flow is at typically only 3 bar/50 psi less than the feed pressure, and thus still carries much of the high pressure pump input energy. The desalinated water purity is a function of the feed water salinity, membrane selection and recovery ratio. To achieve higher purity a second pass can be added which generally requires re-pumping. Purity expressed as total dissolved solids typically varies from 100 to 400 parts per million (ppm or mg/liter on a seawater feed. Reverse osmosis is an effective barrier to pathogens, but post-treatment provides secondary protection against compromised membranes and downstream problems. Disinfection by means of ultra violet (UV) lamps (sometimes called germicidal or bactericidal) may be employed to sterilize pathogens which bypassed the reverse osmosis process. Chlorination or chloramination (chlorine and ammonia) protects against pathogens which may have lodged in the distribution system downstream, such as from new construction, backwash, compromised pipes, etc. Due to its fine membrane construction, reverse osmosis not only removes harmful contaminants present in the water, but it also may remove many of the desirable minerals from the water. Since the 1970s, pre-filtration of high-fouling waters with another larger-pore membrane, with less hydraulic energy requirement, has been evaluated and sometimes used. However, this means that the water passes through two membranes and is often re-pressurized, which requires more energy to be put into the system, and thus increases the cost. Other recent developmental work has focused on integrating reverse osmosis with electro-dialysis to improve recovery of valuable deionized products, or to minimize the volume of concentrate requiring discharge or disposal. The latest developments in reverse osmosis membrane technology include nanoscale and graphene membranes.
[0238] Process Step 4 is an EDI Treatment (Electro-deionization Treatment) (See
[0239] Process Step 4 is an electro-deionization (EDI) water treatment that utilizes electricity, ion exchange membranes and resin to deionize water and separate dissolved ions (impurities) from waterWikipedia). It differs from other water purification technologies in that it is done without the use of chemical treatments and is usually a polishing treatment to the reverse osmosis (RO) treatment. There are also EDI units that are often referred to as continuous electro-deionization (CEDI) since the electric current regenerates the resin mass continuously. CEDI technique can achieve very high purity, with conductivity below 0.1 S/cm. Recently, Argonne National Laboratory developed a process called Resin-Wafer Electro-deionization (RW-EDI), which uses a unique porous resin wafer mold made from immobilized loose ion-exchange resin beads. The resin wafer material enhances mass transfer between solid (resin bead) and liquid (feed solution) phases to achieve a high purity, especially when treating impaired or brackish water. When fed with low TDS (total dissolved solids) feed (e.g., feed purified by RO (reverse osmosis), the product can reach very high purity levels (e.g., 18 meg-ohms cm). The ion exchange resins act to retain the ions, allowing these to be transported across the ion exchange membranes. The main applications of EDI (electro-deionization) technology, such as that supplied by Ionpure, E-cell and SnowPure, are in electronics, pharmaceuticals and power generation.
[0240] The means by which an EDI process can work is as follows. The process uses two electrodes in an electrochemical cell. Each electrode may function as either the anode or the cathode depending on the voltage applied to the cell. One option is to use a bipolar electrode that can function as the anode of one cell and the cathode of another cell. When using a bipolar electrode each cell will have an electrode and a water soluble electrolyte with ions that can undergo either an oxidation or a reduction. The electrolyte in the electrochemical cell is a source of free ions so that the cell can conduct electricity between its two electrodes.
[0241] EDI occurs as the reverse osmosis water made from Process Step 3 is then passed between an anode (positive electrode) and a cathode (negative electrode). Ion-selective membranes allow the positive ions to separate from the water toward the negative electrode and the negative ions toward the positive electrode. This clear the water of remaining mobile anions and cations so that a high purity deionized water results
[0242] An alternative method to practicing Process Step 4 of the present invention is to use Resin-Water Electro-deionization RW-EDI is a process that targets the desalination of impaired water or water with salt levels of 1,000-10,000 ppm. RW-EDI process uses a porous ion exchange resin wafer with 195 cm.sup.2 (cross-section surface area). Water is run through the wafer, while an electric current is applied to setup. Between resin wafer compartments there are concentrate compartments from which brine flows. An anode is situated on one side of the concentrate compartment and the cathode is situated on the other side of the concentrate compartment. When an electric current is used to charge ions that need to be removed by the EDI, positively charged ions that are formed will flow toward the cathode and then can be rinsed away in one direction by a flowing concentrate stream. Negatively charged ions that are formed will flow toward the anode and then can be rinsed away in the same direction by another flowing concentrate stream. As a result, there is a production of purified water between the cathode and the anode electrodes which can flow in the opposite direction from the waste charged ions produced by the EDI. The resin-wafer technology usefully increases the energy efficiency of the desalination process by 5-10 fold. (EDI-Wikipedia). The term in the art of water purification is that EDI process is a final polishing treatment. EDI is very important because it is a process which increases the resistivity of the water to nearly its theoretical maximum of 18 meg-ohms Cm. In one embodiment of the present invention the method for making the ultra-pure water (UPW) is completed once the Process Step 4 of EDI is completed, and in that case the UPW can be stored in a stainless steel holding tank until it is needed. The process for making ultrapure water (UPW), for some embodiments of the present invention, may require about 8 hours to run thru process steps 1 to 4 to make 300 gallons of 18 meg-ohm Cm resistivity UPW. If it is decided to proceed to Process Steps 5-9 for making an embodiment of the invention, then preferably the UPW is prepared and stored for only a few hours before the UPW is carefully mixed with the non-H.sub.2O substance in the next step which is Process Step 3. UltraPure Water (UPW) has about an 18.2 M.Math.cm resistivity. Small concentrations of ion impurities in UPW will greatly reduce UPW resistivity (increased electrical conductivity) which is why measurements of water resistivity a direct and rapid method to analyze quality of a volume of UPW before its use in the present processes of the invention.
[0243] Process Step 5 is a UV Light Exposure for Sterilizing the UPW (See
[0244] Process step 5 is used as a means for sterilizing UPW. For example, the UPW may be treated with UV radiation at 260 nm for about 20 minutes. One option is to perform this UV radiation exposure of the UPW while the UPW is recirculating in a tank with a closed recirculation loop (see
[0245] Process Step 6 is an Initial Mixing of Non-H.sub.2O substance(s) with 1 Gallon of UPW (See
[0246] The mixing of non-H.sub.2O substance(s) with UPW preferably takes place in two separate containers. This allows one to carefully prepare the mixture of the Non-H.sub.2O substance(s) with UPW and to minimize how much air and dust may get into the process batch at this stage. First a particular formulation of non-H.sub.2O substances is selected to make almost 300 gallons of the composition of the invention. The Detailed Description of the Invention later on provides examples of formulations of the present invention.
[0247] In a clean room with Hepa air filtration, one mixing method is to place 30 ounces of UPW 1201 in a 32 ounce commercial blender 1202 such as a Blendex. One third of the non-H.sub.2O ingredients 1203 are then added to the ultra-purified water 1201 in the blender 1202. The UPW should be at least 15 meg-ohm cm resistivity. More preferably the resistivity UPW is between 16-18 meg-ohm cm. The mixture 1205 of UPW 1201 and non-H.sub.2O ingredients 1203 is then mixed by the blender 1202 for a period of time selected from the group consisting of 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 minutes. A blending time more than three minutes is used only if there the non-H.sub.2O substance that is being used has a poor water solubility. Optionally, three such blender 1202 mixings will be ultimately done one after the other and combined. This creates about one gallon of a mixed concentrate 1205 of the non-H.sub.2O substance in UPW. Some air may have been taken up into the gallon of the mixed concentrate.
[0248] Process Step 7 is a Blending of the 1 Gallon Concentrate 1205 into 300 Gallons of UPW (See
[0249] Process of Blending the Concentrate 1205 with 300 Gallons of UPW 1207
[0250] Once mixed concentrate 1205 has been prepared by process step 6, then process step 7 is started. For process step 7, a closed mixing tank 1206 to which has been added 300 gallons of UPW 1207 in the clean room 1208 is pumped in a closed recirculation loop 1209 from the tank bottom drain 1214 to the top entry port of mixing tank 1206 using recirculation pump 1210. The closed mixing tank 1206 has a micron-size air filter 1211 to shield the tank contents from any dust particle introduction. While the mixing tank 1206 is recirculating the 300 gallons of UPW 1207, the gallon of the mixed concentrate 1205 is slowly pumped over about 20 minutes using a concentrate pump 1212 and a pipe 1200 to slowly add the mixed concentrate 1205 into mixing tank 1206 containing the 300 gallons of UPW 1207. As a result, after a minimum of 20 minutes the process ensures that the mixing tank 1206 contains a blended aqueous formulation 1213 of about 300 gallons in volume. When the term non-H.sub.2O substance 1203 is used it means the same thing as the non-H.sub.2O ingredients 1203.
[0251] Invention process temperatures at the inventor's production facility caused the blended aqueous formulation 1213 at the end of Process Step 5 to have a temperature between 77 F. and 98 F. For example in one experiment, the blended aqueous formulation 1213 comprising a blend of the UPW 1201, the UPW 1207 and the non-H.sub.2O substance 1203 at the end of Process Step 5 was measured to have a temperature of 96.4 F., a pH of 6.06, and an oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) of 89.5 mV. The pH and ORP values measured at the end of process step 5 can have different values depending upon the chemistry of the ingredients once mixed in the UPW. The term additives to the UPW shall mean the same as the non-H.sub.2O substance added to the UPW. For some embodiments of the present invention, in the Process steps 1 to 5, the temperature of the UPW, its pH, and the ORP will be adjusted and controlled before proceeding to Process step 6. One method of controlling the UPW temperature, pH, and ORP for the present invention is to use a controlled temperature clean room and tanks with cooling equipment. Also, a pH buffer and an ORP buffer system can be included in the UPW containing the non-H.sub.2O substance to control the pH and ORP.
[0252] Process Step 8 is a Reducing the Size of Water Clusters in the UPW Containing Non-H.sub.2O Substance(s). (See
[0253] Process Step 8 and its apparatus are well detailed in
[0254] Relationship between Flow Rate in Transfer Pipe 1217 and Pressure in Said Pipe.
[0255] In addition, the fluid flow rate in the transfer pipe 1217 is directly proportional to the transfer pipe 1217 pressure. By varying the transfer pipe pump 1216 speed, the flow rate in the 1 ID transfer pipe 1217 may be selected from the group consisting of 10-25, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, and 25 gallons per minute (gal/min). Preferably the flow rate in a 1 ID transfer pipe 1217 is between 12-18 gal/min and more preferably the transfer pipe 1217 flow rate is 14-16 gallons per minute. Optionally, during the pumping by the transfer pipe pump 1216, the transfer pipe 1217 flow rate may be stepped up or down between various selected flow rates either manually by a process operator or automatically by a computer program algorithm providing a flow fluctuation wave form instructions to a microprocessor regulating the invention process apparatus.
[0256] Flow Rate Dependence of Some Processes of the Invention.
[0257] In Table 1 for Process Step 8 there is a study of the flow rate (10-16 gallons per minute) in terms of the flow rate dependence of some measureable fluid properties in the transfer pipe, in the hollow cylinder, and after expulsion from the hollow cylinder. See

[0258] An important objective of process Step 8 is to modify water clusters in the blended aqueous formulation 1213 to create an aqueous medium product with water clusters containing the non-H.sub.2O substance(s) that are below 200 nanometers in size, preferably below 100 nanometers in size, and most preferably below 50 nanometers in size. When process variables have been optimized, then the reduced size of the water clusters containing the non-H.sub.2O substance(s) in the aqueous medium product has been found to possess surprisingly improved bioavailability compared to ordinary water containing the non-H.sub.2O substance(s). In other words, an important objective of the invention is that the process embodiments of the invention make improved bioavailability products. The product embodiments for various use formulations are generally described in some locations of the patent application by the term product 1220. See
[0259] Measurement of Water Cluster Size containing a Non-H.sub.2O substance by the Malvern Zetasizer Instrument
[0260] It is an important objective of the inventors that process embodiments, product embodiments, composition embodiments, formulation embodiments, and treatment method embodiments of the present invention are characterized by testing as best as technology presently permits. Some invention embodiments of the invention have been found to have surprising properties and cause surprising results, both of which have been validated by experiments described in the present specification. The reduction in water cluster size in nanometers in the products of the invention processes to about two (2) nanometers from more than 200 to 1000 nanometers in size can be measured using a Malvern Zetasizer as a particle size. During production of product embodiments of the invention, measuring the size of the water clusters surrounding the non-H.sub.2O substance will be quality validation test. The term nano-sized non H.sub.2O ingredients encapsulated in nano-sized water clusters shall mean a nano-sized water clustered structure. The terms encapsulating with water molecules, enveloping with water molecules, and water clustering have a similar meaning for the present invention. Unique to the present invention methods, processes, products, and treatment methods is the initial use of UPW (ultrapure water) in the invention processes used for making invention products. The terms nano-sized, nano-sizing, nanowater, and UPW nanosized with a non H.sub.2O ingredient refer to and all relate to nano-sized structure resulting from interactions of ultrapure water with a non-H.sub.2O substance.
[0261] For achieving reliable nanoparticle sizing, the inventors are using a Malvern Zetasizer Instrument with a HE-Ne laser (=633 nanometers) for performing a DLS (Dynamic Light Scattering) technology. Inventors are measuring nanowater encapsulated non-H.sub.20 substances measurements in highly-purified and micron filtered aqueous media used in present invention process embodiment steps, final product embodiments which are compositions of non-H.sub.2O substances in UPW, and in treatment embodiments of the present invention. Within testing constraints DLS is reliable. DLS is a method of using light scattering which is a consequence of the interaction of light with the electric field of a small particle or molecule. An incident photon induces an oscillating dipole in the electron cloud. As the dipole changes, energy is radiated in all directions. This radiated energy is called scattered light (Ryan Shaw, Atascientifc Au, 2019). The use of Dynamic Light Scattering is depicted in
[0262] Using a Malvern Zetasizer instrument, samples of ultrapure water were tested to determine ultrapure water (UPW) cluster sizes. It was not possible to study UPW with this instrument unless a very small amount of a non-H.sub.2O substance was present in the UPW. It is expected that a non-H.sub.2O substance in water will always be surrounded by a capsule of water molecules. The overall size of the water cluster composites of non-H.sub.2O particles in UPW water is believed to be the nanosize measured by the Malvern Instruments Zetasizer. Essentially the Zetasizer uses DLS (dynamic light scattering) to obtain data on a nano-sized product of the present invention in an aqueous medium, and then uses a set of computer programs to identify various population size details concerning the nano-sized product (nanoparticle) of the present invention in an aqueous medium. The Zetasizer graphs the nanoparticle nanometers size data to depict the nanoparticles' size distributions it becomes clear how many modes of nanoparticles' sizes there are; the mean or median nanoparticle size at each mode, the width of each mode's distribution of sizes, and the skew/kurtosis profile of each mode's size distribution.

[0263] Variations in Hollow Cylinder Apparatus and its Use in Process Step 8
[0264] For some apparatus embodiments for the process of making the products of the present invention, the angle of the long axis of the hollow cylinder 1218 is at an angle relative to the ground that may be changed. A vertical angle for the hollow cylinder 1218 is depicted in
[0265] The interior surface 1225 of the hollow cylinder 1218 may be comprised of a plastic, a metal, or a glass material or another material capable of having a smooth surface or may have a smooth ridged surface in some embodiments. The interior surface 1225 should preferably be comprised of a material with a surface which will not undergo a chemical reaction with the blended aqueous formulation 1213. However, in some invention apparatus embodiments, a chemical reaction of the interior surface 1225 of the hollow cylinder 1218 and the blended aqueous formulation 1213 is an object of an embodiment of the invention. Such embodiments and processes will be later described. In one preferred embodiment the hollow cylinder 1218 has a wall 1226 of stainless steel. In some preferred embodiments a portion of the wall 1226 has a window section of the wall of a transparent material or the entire wall 1226 is all transparent material such as a transparent plastic such as transparent polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or polyethylene (PE) plastic. When the wall 1226 is transparent then the flow and continuity appearance of the blended aqueous formulation 1213 during Process Step 8 can be monitored.
[0266] In some apparatus embodiments of the invention, the hollow cylinder 1218 has a length 1228 which is between two to twenty-five (2 to 25) times longer than the inner width 1229 of the hollow cylinder 1218. Preferably the hollow cylinder 1218 has a length 1228 which is between 3 to 10 times longer than the inner width 1229 of the hollow cylinder 1218. More preferably the hollow cylinder 1218 has a length 1228 which is between 4-8 times longer than the inner width 1229 of the hollow cylinder 1218. Most preferably the hollow cylinder 1218 has a length 1228 which is between 4 to 5 times longer than the inner width 1229 of the hollow cylinder 1218. In one preferred embodiment for a 300 gallon mixing tank 1206, the transfer pipe 1217 has a 1 ID, the hollow cylinder 1218 has an inner length 1228 between 18 to 24 inches and an inner width 1229 between 3 to 5 inches. In a first prototype process example which is depicted in

[0270] For the present invention, some embodiments are contemplated to have in regard to the ratio of the nozzle 1222 outer width 1230 to the cylinder inner width 1229 for the hollow cylinder 1218, with the ratio selected from the group consisting a ratio of about 1:1.15 to about 1.1.25, a ratio of 1:1.25 to about 1:1.33, a ratio of about 1:1.33 to about 1:1.50, a ratio of about 1:1.50 to about 1:1.75, a ratio of about 1:1.75 to about 1:2.0, a ratio of about 1:2.0 to about 1:2.35, a ratio of about 1:2.35 to about 1:2.70, a ratio of about 1:2.70 to about 1:3.0, a ratio of about 1:3.0 to about 1:3.40, a ratio of about 1:3.40 to about 1:3.70, a ratio of about 1:3.70 to about 1:4.0, a ratio of about 1:4.0 to about 1:4.30, a ratio of about 1:4.60 to about 1:4.80, a ratio of about 1:4.80 to about 1:5.10, a ratio of about 1:5.10 to about 1:5.50, a ratio of about 1:5.50 to about 1:5.90, a ratio of about 1.5.90 to about 1:6.50, a ratio of about 1:6.50 to about 1:7.50, and about a ratio of 1:7.50 to about 1:10.0.
[0271]
[0272] It is an important object of the present invention to perform a process step comprising nanosizing clusters of water surrounding a non-H.sub.2O substance in the blended aqueous formulation so as to improve the bioavailability of the clusters of water surrounding a non-H.sub.2O substance in the blended aqueous formulation. It is contemplated that this important object of the present invention can be accomplished when the hollow cylinder 1218 is designed with various cross-sectional shapes. Thus the apparatus depicted in
[0273] To make compositions comprising high-bioavailability nanosized clusters of water surrounding a non-H.sub.2O substance, there are multiple factors which contribute to accomplishing this goal. The process for making the compositions requires blending an amount of ultrapure water with an amount of a non-H.sub.2O substance. The process requires an apparatus for practicing the invention process. Some example features of an apparatus needed for practicing the invention process are depicted in
[0274] During Invention Process Step 8 a pressurized blended aqueous formulation 1213 flows into a nozzle fluid entry hole from distal end of the transfer pipe 1217 using the fluid pressure force generated by operation of a pipe transfer pump 1216. In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, which is depicted schematically in
[0275]
[0276] Note also that the shape of the long axis bore hole 1427 of the jet opening 1423 of nozzle 1422 is depicted in
[0277] The transfer pipe pressure mainly controls the flow rate of the blended aqueous formulation 1213. The flow rate of the blended aqueous formulation 1213 may be slightly increased due to the force of gravity acting on the hydrostatic column height of the blended aqueous formulation 1213 once it is present in the hollow cylinder 1218. This can only happen because the hollow cylinder 1218 as depicted in
[0278] In one embodiment for example, the center drain hole has a 1 ID exit hole. The calculated hollow cylinder volume 1218 is 226 cubic inches for a hollow cylinder with an inner width of 4 inches and a height of 18 inches. A gallon is 231 cubic inches. Therefore for example, when the transfer pipe flow rate is 14-16 gallons per minute, then the fluid in the hollow cylinder is exchanging 14-16 times per minute or getting replaced about once every 4 seconds. When only 10-20 gallons of a 300 gallon batch of the blended aqueous formulation 1213 remains in the mixing tank 1206 during the process step 6 process, then some air from the mixing tank 1206 can get sucked down into the transfer pipe 1217, moves into the transfer pipe pump 1216 and causes a fall in the transfer pipe 1217 fluid pressure and flow rate. When the mixing tank 1206 air reaches the hollow cylinder 1218, then process Step 8 will be stopped.
[0279] Processes for making the intermediates and final products by the processes of the present invention have special and conditions and certain limitations that must be emphasized to distinguish the operations and uses and products by the processes of the present invention from the prior art inventions and processes. Water clusters sizes hydrating a non-H.sub.2O substance can be reduced in size by the processes of the present invention to less than 400 nanometers median size, preferably to less than 300 nanometers median size according to Malvern Zetasizer DLS testing. Water clusters sizes in the range of 2 nanometers to 300 nanometers can be achieved by the present invention provided that the size of the non-H.sub.2O substance is recognized as having a significant controlling role in what will be the minimum size water cluster of a particular non-H.sub.2O substance enveloped in water clustering. The present invention cannot reduce a water cluster to a size which is smaller than the simplest hydrated water cluster size of a particular non-H.sub.2O substance particle.
[0280] In contrast to published prior art invention processes and apparatuses known to the inventors, the novel present invention apparatus and provides surprising results. The present invention processes comprises making an aqueous composition comprising an aqueous medium with reduced size water clusters containing a non-H.sub.2O substance. The process of the present invention has been found to have an optimal range of rates of flowing of the blended aqueous formulation of the ultrapure water with the non-H.sub.2O substance(s) into a nozzle 1222 in the hollow cylinder 1213. The jetting of the blended aqueous formulation from one or a plurality of jet opening(s) 1223 has been discovered to be a process which is necessarily operated with a surprisingly restricted range of flowing rates of the blended aqueous formulation preceding its flowing into the hollow cylinder 1218. Accordingly, channels of the jet opening 1223 in some embodiments of the present invention having a plurality of acute and obtuse edges are optimal. This has been discovered through experimentation of process parameters including the flow rate of the blended aqueous formulation inside of the hollow cylinder through the jet opening(s) 1223 of the nozzle 1222. It may be that the invention apparatus occurring in Step 8 process of using the hollow cylinder is creating pressure fluctuations of the blended aqueous formulation flowing inside the hollow cylinder passing through the jet opening(s) 1223 is creating pressure fluctuations of the blended aqueous formulation inside of the hollow cylinder. These pressure fluctuations have not been measured but the pressure fluctuations of the blended aqueous formulation through the jet openings 1223 are conceived to be a means for reducing water cluster sizes in the blended aqueous formulation 1213. It has been quantified for the invention embodiment depicted in
[0281] Surprisingly, low flow rates of the blended aqueous formulation 1213 were measured by the Zetasizer cause process 8 problems. In some of the embodiments of the invention having flowing rates below about 10-12 gallons per minute produced a multiple number of median modes in the quantified distribution of sizes of the water clusters which is inferred to mean that the using low flow rates in the processes of the present invention are causing an incomplete nanosizing of the blended aqueous formulation 1213 below about 300 nanometers lead to an incomplete conversion of the populations of large water clusters. For the apparatus schematically depicted in
[0282] Pressurizing of the blended aqueous formulation may be occurring outside the hollow cylinder 1218. Inventors experimentally tested the blended aqueous formulation before and after the hollow cylinder 1218 and quantified with Zetasizer water measured laser reflection movements in test samples for analysis and production of charts depicting water cluster size distributions which are for example presented as histograms of the size distributions water clusters in
[0283] Processes of the Present Invention Involve Using a UPW Concentrate of Ingredients
[0284] In some embodiments of the invention the process comprises using a continuous stream of the blended aqueous formulation flowing within a hollow cylinder comprising an inflow transfer pipe with a plurality of nozzle jets and an outflow drain pipe. Non-H.sub.2O ingredients in some embodiments of the invention are mixed with an amount of UPW, preferably about 1-10 gallons of the UPW which in these embodiments comprises a range of about 0.1% to about 5% relative to the total volume of the blended aqueous formulation in the mixing tank 1206. The blended aqueous formulation 1213 leaving hollow cylinder 1218 is not recirculated in a cylinder, and no exothermic reaction occurred in the hollow cylinder. The blended aqueous formulation pH may acidify very slightly in hollow cylinder. Embodiments of the invention, after forming various products, have not been storing the product under pressure, or adding any gases.
[0285] Processes of the Invention may Include Sterilizing UV Radiation
[0286] Preferably, the process will use UV radiation for sterilizing the product but is an optional process step. One means for UV sterilizing is to employ a pipe with a quartz lamp emitting UV and located concentrically in the pipe so as to have the blended aqueous formulation sterilized prior to hollow cylinder 1218 and/or depicted in
[0287] Summary of Processes of the Present Invention Surprisingly Affecting the Product
[0288] The process embodiments of the present invention are useful for causing a size reduction of the blended aqueous formulation 1213 water clusters. The process embodiments of the present invention are also useful for improving bioavailability of product embodiments of the invention which are produced by the process. The water cluster nano-sizing in the product embodiments of the invention have been shown using the Zetasizer to have remarkably long-lasting storage stability of the nano-sized water clusters, for example up to 2.5 years. Embodiments of the invention are surprisingly useful for adding substances later to product embodiments of the present invention without disrupting the median size of the nano-sized water cluster nor increasing numbers of modes of the size distributions of the nano-sized water clusters in the invention product.
[0289] Preferred Ratio of Transfer Pipe to Hollow Cylinder Diameters
[0290] There is a preferred ratio for some embodiments of the present invention of transfer pipe 1217 to hollow cylinder 1218 inner diameter. Also some embodiments of the invention have a preferred width to length ratio for the hollow cylinder 1218 depicted in
[0291] Generally it is useful to immediately use the UPW (ultrapure water) that has just been created by processes of the invention so as to make properly nano-sized water cluster products. In such cases the UPW can be manufactured on site by a number of processes which have been described in the specification of this patent application.

[0293] In some embodiment apparatuses of the invention for conducting various process embodiments of the invention, the piping and tanks have a composition of matter selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene plastic, an ABS plastic, a polycarbonate plastic, a nylon plastic, a mixture of plastics, a plastic which is externally reinforced with fiberglass materials, a stainless steel alloy, a borosilicate glass, an aluminosilicate glass, a Pyrex glass, a polypropylene plastic, a vinyl plastic, and a combination thereof. When the processing may be light sensitive because there is a light sensitive non-H.sub.2O substance within the blended aqueous formulation in which case the piping and the tanks may be non-transparent or processing may occur in a dark room or a room illuminated with a low wattage or a long wave length light illumination which may be selected from the group consisting of a LED light source, an incandescent light source or a light source with a selected wave length(s) light filter, or a combination thereof. For consumer products, the process is conducted with food grade ingredients.
[0294] Process Step 7 is a Storage of the Reduced Size of Water Clusters in the UPW Containing Non-H.sub.2O Substance(s).
[0295] One example embodiment for Process step 7 involves storing the product 1219 temporarily in a suitable air-tight stainless steel tank 1220.

[0346] Definitions of Some Terms Commonly Used in Pharmacokinetics Analyses
[0347] Pharmacokinetics is a field of Pharmacology which describes how the body affects a specific xenobiotic/chemical after administration through the mechanisms of absorption and distribution, as well as the metabolic changes of the substance in the body (e.g. by metabolic enzymes such as cytochrome P450 or glucuronosyltransferase enzymes), and the effects and routes of excretion of the metabolites of the drug. Pharmacokinetic properties of chemicals are affected by the route of administration and the dose of administered drug. These may affect the absorption rate. Models have been developed to simplify conceptualization of the many processes that take place in the interaction between an organism and a chemical substance. One of these, the multi-compartmental model, is the most commonly used approximations to reality; however, the complexity involved in adding parameters with that modelling approach means that mono-compartmental models and above all two compartmental models are the most-frequently used.
[0348] One way to describe multiple compartment models is to use the term commonly referred to as the ADME scheme and is also referred to as LADME if liberation is included as a separate step from absorption. The letters in the acronyms ADME and LADME refer to:
[0349] Liberation refers to the process of release of a drug from the pharmaceutical formulation.[4][5] See also IVIVC.
[0350] Absorption refers to the process of a substance entering the blood circulation.
[0351] Distribution refers to the dispersion or dissemination of substances throughout the fluids and tissues of the body.
[0352] Metabolism, biotransformation are process for causing modifications of a foreign substance and involve a recognition by the organism that a foreign substance is present and then, an irreversible transformation of parent compounds into metabolites which may be water soluble.
[0353] Elimination refers to the removal of the substances from the body. Metabolism and excretion processes may be collectively termed as processes of elimination. (Pharmacokinetics, Wikipedia, 2019).
[0354] Some invention embodiments may contain a pharmaceutical drug, a biological based drug, an antibody-based drug, or a vaccine based drug as the non-H.sub.2O substance.

[0355] Routes of Administration of a Drug or Fluid to an Individual
[0356] A route of administration of a foreign substance such as a drug into an individual with respect to the pharmacology and toxicology is the path by which a drug or other substance has been administered into the body of the individual. One way to describe the routes of administration is to classify the route by the location at which the substance is administered to the individual. Routes of administration can also be evaluated based on where the site of drug action is going to occur. For example, a drug action may have a location which is topical meaning on a skin location, enteral meaning within the gastrointestinal tract, or parenteral meaning within the body by a route of administration other than directly into the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract). The routes of administration may use a solid, fluid, gas, drug, or a drug formulation.
[0357] The route of administration is selected from the group consisting of oral, parenteral, gastric, duodenal, into large intestine, intravenous, intramuscular, arterial, by inhalation, pulmonary, intranasal, intraocular, auricular, subcutaneous, epidural, transdermal, rectal, uretral, intra-vesicular, intravaginal, intra-ureteral, into fat tissue, cerebrospinal, intrathecal, into GI tract, a section of the small intestine, sublingual, buccal, intracerebral, by a direct injection, subcutaneous, transdermal, intra-arterial, intra-articular, intradermal, intralesional, intramuscular, intraocular, intraosseous infusion, intraperitoneal, intrathecal, intrauterine, intravenous, intra-vesicular, intravitreal, subcutaneous, transdermal patches, perivascular, transmucosal, topical and a combination thereof.
[0358] Administration into the gastrointestinal tract can be subdivided into routes which are oral or rectal administrations. It is generally understood that a drug in the GI tract will be absorbed into the body mostly by passing into by crossing the small intestine section of the GI tract. Absorption of drugs into the blood stream after an oral drug administration occurs slightly across the stomach wall, under the tongue, between the cheek and gums/gingiva. Generally drugs will be formulated as a tablet, capsule, or drop when the drug is to be administered orally. A gastric feeding tube or a gastrostomy may be used as a method for administering a drug into the stomach. A duodenal feeding tube may be used for administering a drug into the small intestine. A rectal route of administration is an effective route of administration for a drug. When a medication is delivered to the distal one-third of the rectum, then there is the advantage that there is less liver metabolism of the drug as the drug is transported from the GI tract into the blood circulation of the individual. A suppository is a rectal formulation of a drug which is useful for very young children or a person who cannot take an oral dose of the drug. During hospice care of an individual needing administration of a drug, a rectal catheter may be used to deliver a drug. Parenteral administration generally occurs using a hypodermic syringe needle, or an indwelling catheter to administer the drug into a body compartment other than the GI tract. Parenteral administration into the central nervous system can occur by an injection or infusion into the epidural space. In some instances an intracerebral route of administration is used. This is a direct injection route into the brain. The intracerebral route be used to avoid the blockade of drug passage from the blood stream across the blood brain barrier. An injection under the skin is called a subcutaneous route of administration and is often used for local anesthesia. There are transdermal routes of administration which employ a patch on top of the skin containing a formulation of a drug which releases the drug to the skin. Sublingual administration involves placing the drug under the tongue. Buccal medication means placing the drug under the tongue or between the gums and the cheek. Sublingual and buccal medications generally are formulated as tablets, films, or sprays. Examples of drugs administered by a sublingual route of administration include some cardiovascular drugs, steroids, barbiturates, opioid analgesics, some enzymes, some vitamins and minerals. Nasal administration can be used for rapidly administration of a drug into an individual. Intra-arterial drug administration is sometimes been used to administer a drug with an arterial site of action such as vasodilator drugs for localized treatment of vasospasm and thrombolytic drugs. Intra-articular drug administration can be used to deliver a drug into a joint space. Intradermal administration of a substance means into the dermal skin layer and is used for testing of allergens, and the mantoux test for tuberculosis. An intralesional administration of an ointment of antibiotics into a skin wound is a common method for preventing a wound infection or treating a wound already infected. The term intramuscular administration refers giving a medication into a muscle and is often used for administering for example, a vaccine, an antibiotic, or an anti-inflammatory agent. Intraocular administration of a drug is a drug administration of the drug to the interior chamber of the eye. Drug administration by an intraosseous infusion means into the bone marrow and is also an indirect intravenous access because the bone marrow drains directly into the venous system. This route is occasionally used for drugs and fluids in emergency medicine and pediatrics when intravenous access is difficult. An intraperitoneal administration of a drug or fluid is an infusion or injection route. Intrathecal administration meaning into the spinal canal for giving spinal anesthesia and administering a chemotherapy drug. Intrauterine means an administration route to the inside of the uterus. Intravaginal administration means to inside the vagina. Intravenous meaning into a vein is a route of administration of drugs used commonly in a hospital setting during a medical operation and for bed patients so that a drug can be immediately or continually administered to a patient. An intra-vesicular infusion refers to a drug administration into the chamber of the urinary bladder. An intravitreal administration refers to drug administration into the vitreous humor of the eye. A subcutaneous administration of a drug is under the skin. A transdermal drug administration occurs by a diffusion of the drug through the intact skin for systemic treatment rather than a topical of the skin. The drug is formulated and used in a transdermal patches which is set down on the top of the skin like a band aid. Drugs administered by a transdermal patch include fentanyl in pain therapy, nicotine patches for treatment of addiction and nitroglycerine for treatment of angina pectoris. A perivascular administration refers to a location around a blood vessel and is often used by a surgeon during open vascular surgery. Drug administration by a transmucosal route is based on a diffusion of the drug from a mucous surface such as in the mouth, lungs, rectum, vagina, under the tongue, gingiva, nose, or another mucous membrane surface. The route or course the active substance takes from application location to the location where it has its target effect is usually rather a matter of pharmacokinetics of the drug which concern the processes of drug uptake, drug distribution, and elimination of the drug. However, transdermal and transmucosal routes are merely routes of administration. The location of the target effect of active substances is often used. A topical drug administration may be used to describe a local application location and local drug target.
[0359] Pharmacokinetic Measurements Are Related to Drug Blood Levels Over Time
[0360] There are a number of standard pharmacokintetic measurement and terms including drug dose, Cmax, Tmax, Cmin, Volume of Distribution, Blood Plasma Concentration, The drug doise refers to the amount of the drug that is administered to an individual. A drug dose formulation refers to a pharmaceutical formulation of a drug which typically contains a fixed amount of a drug per unit of the drug formulation. The drug formulation is designed to facilitate a reproducible therapeutic administration of the drug dose to an individual using a knonw route of administration. Cmax refers to the peak or maximum achieved plasma or blood concentration of a drug after administration of the drug to the individual. Tmax refers to the time to reach Cmax after administration of the drug to the individual. Cmin refers to the lowest concentration that a drug reaches before the next drug dose is administered to the individual. The pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Cmin is sometimes called the Trough level. The pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Volume of Distribution of a drug refers to the apparent volume of drug distribution in biological space(s) where a drug becomes distributed. The Volume of Distribution has units of liters. The pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Blood Plasma Concentration of a drug refers to the amount of the drug in a given volume of the blood plasma. The pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Elimination half-life refers to the time required for the concentration of the drug in some location, often in the blood plasma compartment, to reach half of its original value wherever the original value is selected. The pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Elimination rate constant is the rate at which a drug is removed from the body or a body compartment. Pharmacokinetic concept known as the Body Compartment refers to a tissue space which generally can be sampled or tested or measured by some means. A drug concentration may be measured in a body compartment. The pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Infusion rate refers to the rate of infusion of a drug into a compartment space of an individual required to balance elimination of the drug from a compartment space of an individual.
[0361] The pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Area under the Curve (AUC) is determined using drug blood plasma samples taken over time. The integral is calculated for the area under the curve of the blood plasma drug concentration for a given total time period. The drug administration may be a single dose, multiple drug doses, or a continuous drug administration. The AUC is used to calculate drug bioavailability. The AUC is measured in blood plasma samples taken from an individual at selected time periods following the single dose, the multiple drug doses, or the continuous drug administration to the individual. The calculated AUC is divided by the total amount of the drug dose administered and that fraction times 100% is the bioavailability of the drug in that individual al amount of the drug that created the total amount of the drug. The AUC of any compartment can be calculated where a drug may accumulate over time after its administration by a route of administration.
[0362] The pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Clearance (CL) is the volume of plasma cleared of the drug per unit time. Fluctuation is a pharmacokinetic measurement known in some cases specifically as a trough fluctuation within one dosing interval at steady state. In pharmacokinetics, steady state refers to the situation where the overall intake of a drug is fairly in dynamic equilibrium with its elimination. In practice, it is generally considered that steady state drug levels can be reached in a period of time which is between about 4 to 5 times the elimination half-life (T) for a drug after a single drug dose or after a steady stae drug level causes by a period of constant time intervals (constant frequency) of drug dose administrations (Pharmacokinetics, Wikipedia, 2019).
[0363] An important property of embodiments of the present invention is their improved biovailability to an individual. An important object of embodiments of the present invention is their improved biovailability to an individual. One definition of the pharmacokinetic measurement known as the Bioavailability is the systemically available fraction of a drug after it has been given by a selected route of admininstrattion. Oral bioavailability is a pharmacokinetic measurement that can be obtained following an oral administration of a drug to an individual and refers to what percentage of a drug dose formulation is orally absorbed by an individual. Oral bioavailability can be determined by measuring the drug concentration in a series of blood plasma samples taken from the individual over a time of minutes to hours. The integral of the area under the curve (AUC) of the drug's blood plasma concentration over the time of minutes to hours following oral administration is one method that may allow for a calculation of the oral bioavailability of the drug dose formulation in the individual, (Pharmacokinetics, Wikipedia, 2019). Body compartment spaces in an animal include spaces that can be selected from the group consisting of a brain, a brain region, spinal cord, a cerebrospinal fluid, a skeletal muscle, a cardiac muscle, a body fat, a venous blood plasma, an arterial blood plasma, a placental blood, a cancer tumor, a bone, a cartilage, an intracellular space, an interstitial space, a lymph fluid, a lymph nodes, a pulmonary alveolar fluid, a pulmonary airway, a urine, a stomach fluid, a small intestine fluid, colon, a bile sample, a saliva, a vitreous humor of the eye, a uterine fluid, a testicular sample, a stool sample, a tear from an eye, a nasal discharge, a subcutaneous skin sample, a hair sample, a hair follicle sample, a subdermal sample, and a combination thereof.
[0364] Body compartment spaces in an plant include spaces which can be selected from the group consisting of a flower, a stem, a root, a leaf, a xylem, a phloem, chloroplast, a vesicle, a plant oil body, a seed, an endosperm, and a combination thereof. A number of factors may be evaluated in some product embodiments of the present invention for selecting a route of administration for the product. These factors include the following. Considered are physical and chemical properties of the drug such as its physical state as a solid, liquid or gas, and what other substances are present with the drug during its administration. Considered as well are a drug's chemical properties including drug solubility, stability, pH, and molecular weight. Considered is the target location for the drug to reach following drug administration. The target location may be localized, or widely distributed in the body of the individual. Considered is the rate and extent of absorption of the drug from different routes of administration. Considered is the degradative effect of digestive enzymes, the stomach acidity, the duodenal alkalinity, or need for actions of the digestive enzymes, the stomach acidity, the duodenal alkalinity. Considered is first pass metabolism of drugs phenomena which is that drug first pass thru the liver before reaching the blood stream after the drug's small intestinal absorption. Considered is the age, race, sex, and health of the individual.
[0365] Frequently in acute situations, in emergency medicine and intensive care medicine, a drug needs to be administered by an intravenous route such as an IV. This is the most reliable route, as in acutely ill patients the absorption of substances from the tissues and from the digestive tract can often be unpredictable due to altered blood flow or bowel motility.
[0366] In acute situations, in emergency medicine and intensive care medicine, drugs are most often given intravenously. This is the most reliable route, as in acutely ill patients the absorption of substances from the tissues and from the digestive tract can often be unpredictable due to altered blood flow or bowel motility. Also, identical drugs can produce different results depending on the route of administration. For example, some drugs are not significantly absorbed into the bloodstream from the gastrointestinal tract, and their action after enteral administration is therefore different from that after parenteral administration. For example the drug naloxone (Narcan) has different effects depending upon its route of administration. Naloxone is a well-known opiate drug antagonist used to antagonist an opiate drug effect in the central nervous system (CNS). In this case, the naloxone is administered by an intravenously route so as to very rapidly reverse an opiate overdose in the individual who may be unconscious. The same drug, when swallowed, acts exclusively on the bowels so as to reverse large intestinal immobility (constipation) which is a side effect in an individual taking an opiate pain therapy. In the prior art, an oral naloxone does not affect the pain-reducing effect of a systemic opiate pain therapy.
[0367] Some embodiments of the present invention are drug product formulations designed to have an increased bioavailability relative to prior art formulations of the drug. This is evidenced as one or more changes in pharmacokinetics for said drug. A drug formulation embodiment of the present invention may be specifically formulated so as to have a desired change in a pharmacokinetic parameter in a particular body space or location. Some embodiments of the invention are designed for modifying the speed of or extent of a drug action, the location of a drug action or the extent of a drug side effect. The pharmacokinetic parameter for modifying is selected from the group consisting of a reduced Tmax, an increased Tmax, an increased Cmax, a decreased Cmax can increased AUC, a changed T, a changed kind of drug metabolites, a changed extent of drug metabolism, an increase in number of target locations of the drugs, new uses for the drug, or a combination of these changes in pharmacokinetics of the drug.
[0368] The oral route is generally the most convenient and costs the least. However, some drugs can cause gastrointestinal tract irritation. For drugs that come in delayed release or time-release formulations, breaking the tablets or capsules can lead to more rapid delivery of the drug than intended. The oral route is limited to formulations containing small molecules only while biopharmaceuticals (usually proteins) would be digested in the stomach and thereby become ineffective. Biopharmaceuticals have to be given by injection or infusion. However, recent research found an organic ionic liquid suitable for oral insulin delivery (a biopharmaceutical) into the blood stream
[0369] Inhaled medications can be absorbed quickly and act both locally and systemically. Proper technique with inhaler devices is necessary to achieve the correct dose. Some medications can have an unpleasant taste or irritate the mouth.
[0370] ParenteralThe term injection encompasses intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), subcutaneous (SC) and intradermal (ID) administration. A peripheral IV may be located on a hand. A medical professional typically performs an intradermal (ID) injection. Parenteral administration generally acts more rapidly than topical or enteral administration, with onset of action often occurring in 15-30 seconds for IV, 10-20 minutes for IM and 15-30 minutes for SC. They also have essentially 100% bioavailability and can be used for drugs that are poorly absorbed or ineffective when they are given orally. Some medications, such as certain antipsychotics, can be administered as long-acting intramuscular injections. Ongoing IV infusions can be used to deliver continuous medication or fluids.
[0371] Disadvantages of injections include potential pain or discomfort for the patient and the requirement of trained staff using aseptic techniques for administration. However, in some cases, patients are taught to self-inject, such as SC injection of insulin in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. As the drug is delivered to the site of action extremely rapidly with IV injection, there is a risk of overdose if the dose has been calculated incorrectly, and there is an increased risk of side effects if the drug is administered too rapidly.
[0372] Inhalation by smoking a substance is likely the most rapid way to deliver drugs to the brain, as the substance travels directly to the brain without being diluted in the systemic circulation. The severity of dependence on psychoactive drugs tends to increase with more rapid drug delivery. [0373] In some embodiments, the present invention is a process, wherein more specifically the non-H.sub.2O substances are added to a volume of 50 gallons of ultrapure water, and wherein the non-H.sub.2O substances comprise: [0374] between about 0.02 ozs. to 25 ozs. of Capasaicin, [0375] between about 0.05 milligrams to 16 milligrams of Resveratrol, [0376] between about 10 milligrams to 850 milligrams of Quercetin, [0377] between about 500 milligrams to 12,000 milligrams of Vitamin D3, and [0378] between about 4 milligrams to 4,000 milligrams of Panax Ginseng.

[0389] In some embodiments, the present invention is a process, wherein more specifically the non-H.sub.2O substances are added to a volume of 50 gallons of ultrapure water, and, wherein the non-H.sub.2O substances comprise: [0390] between about 0.001 grams to 1000 grams of Synapta; [0391] between about 0.001 grams to 3000 grams of magnesium chloride; [0392] between about 0.0001 liters to 3 liters of Concentrace Trace Mineral Drops; and between about 0.01 grams to 100 grams sodium benzoate.

[0397] In some embodiments, the present invention is a process, wherein more specifically the reduced size water clusters containing the non-H.sub.2O substance in the aqueous medium is used to improve the bioavailability of a therapeutic water source capable of providing a hydration treatment to a mammal for a hydration benefit selected from the group consisting of a healthy body weight, an increased metabolism, an increased energy levels, a reduced join back pain, an easier flushing a body waste, a prevention of headaches including migraine headaches, alleviating headaches, a better skin hydration and skin health, a slowing of aging, and a stimulation of nutrient intake from food.
B. Experimental Data Examples and Related Process Information Examples
Example 1Experimental Data on Products of the Invention
[0398] The inventors observed a significant reduction in sizes of water clusters in blended aqueous formulations comprising ultrapure water and a non-H.sub.2O substance(s).
[0399] A water cluster of the present invention is defined to mean a clustering of water molecules about a non-H.sub.2O substance. A non-H.sub.2O substance can be a therapeutic particle. Note the present invention title indicates that the Invention has processes making an aqueous therapeutic particle have stable exterior water clustering with nanosized thickness.
[0400] The clustering of water molecules about a non-H.sub.2O substance which can be a therapeutic particle is what can be detected by DLS measurements conducted by a Malvern Zetasizer. Also note that for the present invention, that a water cluster of the present invention is essentially an embodiment of the invention and includes cluster of water molecules derived from Ultrapure water (UPW) that can cluster about, or that can envelope, or that can encapsulate, or can surround a non-H.sub.2O substance such as for example a very small particle of CBD (cannabinoid). See
[0401]
[0402]
[0403] For the present invention, low rates of flow as well as irregular flow rates through the hollow cylinder 1218 cause problems with the water cluster size distributions, including the production of several median size water cluster (particle sizes), thus particle sizes with multi-modal size distributions are detected. This can mean that many water clusters in the invention product will not have the desired particle size reduction and so a portion of a product might not have an optimal improvement in bioavailability to an individual consuming the product orally. Note that about 84% of the water clusters in before samples depicted in

Example 2: Products with Reduced Size Water Clusters Have Improved Bioavailability
[0404] Inventors have been using the Malvern Zetasizer to measure the median size of the water clusters in experimental product embodiments of the present invention, and have been evaluating the improvements in bioavailability of experimental product embodiments of the present invention arising from the novel invention process of the present invention. The inventors observed that a composition with aqueous medium comprising UltraPure Water (UPW) and a non-H.sub.2O substance(s) has improved bioavailability when the median size of the water clusters in the aqueous medium is reduced to below 300 nanometers, preferably below a median size of 150 nanometers size, more preferably to below a median size of 75 nanometers, most preferably to below a median size of 40 nanometers size based on using a Malvern Zetasizer to determine median size of the water cluster size of the products of the invention. The inventor observed that an aqueous medium containing a non-H.sub.2O substance water clusters with a median size exceeding 400 nanometers has a poor bioavailability.
[0405] The inventors conclude that aqueous medium compositions which comprise a blended mixture of UPW with a non-H.sub.2O substance(s) and which have been manufactures by a process of the present invention are found to have (a) reduced size water clusters based on Malvern Zetasizer testing by the inventor, and (b) an improved bioavailability based on bioavailability testing by the inventor.
[0406] The Malvern Zetasizer was used by inventors to perform DLS (Direct Light Scattering) experiments to measure the median values of particle sizes present in the invention process product fluid. The particles being measured are ultrapure water clusters containing non-H.sub.2O ingredients which are intended to become a hydration drink. These experimental batches of the hydration drink were not commercialized. Note that

Example 4: Football Nanowater Sports Drink Prevents Severe Dehydration
[0409] A confidential proof of concept study of a drink embodiment of the present invention was conducted using college football teams' players. Testing of the drink embodiment was conducted under three different weather conditions during football games: (a) very hot temperatures, (b) moderately hot temperatures, and (c) comfortable temperatures. The proof of concept study was conducted in the southern United States where the weather can be humid and very hot. The home team participants believed they were simply drinking Powerade and told to drink it whenever they wanted (ad libitum). It was noticed that many home team participants were frequently drinking a test sports drink formulation of the present invention during their football games. The goal of the inventors sports drink study was to find evidence to support the inventors hypothesis that the test sports drink formulation (which was a drink embodiment of the present invention) provided an essential high bioavailability benefit which football players need and it was superior to the benefit they received by simply drinking Powerade. It was hypothesized by the inventors that their test sports drink formulation should demonstrate a higher bioavailability than Powerade could, and therefore it should be a better hydration drink for football players. The Troy University Football Team (Troy, Ala.) played about 50 players in each of their football games. Apparently about 60% of the Troy University Football Team players (N=approx. 30 players) drank the experimental sports drink formulation of the present invention whenever they wanted. Other Troy University Football Team payers (N=Approx. 20 players) drank a different sports drink formulation embodiment of the present invention as they wished. This drink contained Powerade sports drink powder, so as to make the drink useful as a sports hydration drink.
[0410] For the first seven weeks of their football game season Troy football players played football games in warm-very hot weather with temperatures ranging between 76 F. to 97 F. In warm to very hot weather, their opponent football teams had to deal with the problem that twenty-two (22) of their football players had a medical emergency that immediately needed an IV (intravenous fluid) treatment on the football field or later to treat a football player who had become severely dehydrated. The proof of concept evidence for the drink invention having a high bioavailability came when it was discovered that not even one Troy Football Team player had a medical emergency needing an IV (intravenous fluid) treatment on the football field or afterwards.
[0411] For the last five weeks of their football game season Troy football players played football games in cooler temperatures between 52 F. to 58 F. Even in a cool weather, the Opponent Football teams had seven (7) of their football players with a medical emergency needing an IV treatment on the football field or after the game to treat their significant dehydration. Surprisingly, Troy Football players had not even one football player having a medical emergency needing an IV treatment to help them to rehydrate from their muscles cramping or from another sign of dehydration in cool weather.
[0412] In the last week of their football season, Troy had a Championship Football Bowl game. The Opponent Football Team had three (3) football players who played in the Bowl Game and had a medical emergency needing IV treatments on the football field or afterwards due to their significant dehydration. Surprisingly, Troy Football Team had not even one football player who as a result of playing in the Bowl Game had a medical emergency needing an IV treatment on the football field during the time of the game or afterwards.
[0413] The straightforward design of this sports drink study and surprising test results mentioned above, established that the Troy Football players were continually better hydrated in contrast to the football teams they played. The simple conclusion is that a football sports team can significantly benefit by drinking a high bioavailability sports drink formulation of the present invention. The experiment also established that conventional sports hydration drinks can fail to adequately hydrate a football team players, particularly in hot weather. The opposing teams needed 32 intravenous re-hydrations of football players during the football season and at the same time not even one intravenous rehydration was needed by a Troy University football player. The odds of this being a random result appear extremely unlikely. The inventors believe this sports drink study shows the present invention sports drink is a surprisingly improved water bioavailability product compared to prior art hydration drinks used by college football teams, both in hot and cool weather.
Example 5: More Details On Enabling the Use of Malvern Zetasizer To Make Nanometer Size Measurements of the Water Clusters Containing a Non-H.SUB.2.O Substance(s) by Using Dynamic Light Scattering Technology
[0414] There are methods to measure particle size, for example by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) which is a technique in physics that can be used to determine the size distribution profile of small particles in suspension or polymers in solution, as well as the size distribution profile of the size of water clusters in the UPW containing non-H.sub.2O substance(s).
[0415] In the scope of DLS, temporal fluctuations are usually analyzed by means of the intensity or photon auto-correlation function (also known as photon correlation spectroscopy or quasi-elastic light scattering). In the time domain analysis, the autocorrelation function (ACF) usually decays starting from zero delay time, and faster dynamics due to smaller particles lead to faster decorrelation of scattered intensity trace. It has been shown that the intensity ACF is the Fourier transformation of the power spectrum, and therefore the DLS measurements can be equally well performed in the spectral domain. DLS can also be used to probe the behavior of complex fluids such as concentrated polymer solutions. (Dynamic light scattering, Wikipedia, 2018).
[0416] A monochromatic light source, usually a laser, is shot through a polarizer and into a sample. The scattered light then goes through a second polarizer where it is collected by a photomultiplier and the resulting image is projected onto a screen. This is known as a speckle pattern.
[0417] All of the molecules in the solution are being hit with the light and all of the molecules diffract the light in all directions. The diffracted light from all of the molecules can either interfere constructively (light regions) or destructively (dark regions). This process is repeated at short time intervals and the resulting set of speckle patterns are analyzed by an auto correlator that compares the intensity of light at each spot over time. The polarizers can be set up in two geometrical configurations. One is a vertical/vertical (VV) geometry, where the second polarizer allows light through that is in the same direction as the primary polarizer. In vertical/horizontal (VH) geometry the second polarizer allows light not in same direction as the incident light.
[0418] When light hits small particles, the light scatters in all directions (Rayleigh scattering) as long as the particles are small compared to the wavelength (below 250 nm). Even if the light source is a laser, and thus is monochromatic and coherent, the scattering intensity fluctuates over time. This fluctuation is due to small molecules in solutions undergoing Brownian motion, and so the distance between the scatterers in the solution is constantly changing with time. This scattered light then undergoes either constructive or destructive interference by the surrounding particles, and within this intensity fluctuation, information is contained about the time scale of movement of the scatterers. Sample preparation either by filtration or centrifugation is critical to remove dust and artifacts from the solution. At short time delays, the correlation is high because the particles do not have a chance to move to a great extent from the initial state that they were in. The two signals are thus essentially unchanged when compared after only a very short time interval. As the time delays become longer, the correlation decays exponentially, meaning that, after a long time period has elapsed, there is no correlation between the scattered intensity of the initial and final states. This exponential decay is related to the motion of the particles, specifically to the diffusion coefficient. To fit the decay (i.e., the autocorrelation function), numerical methods are used, based on calculations of assumed distributions. If the sample is monodisperse then the decay is simply a single exponential. The Siegert equation relates the second-order autocorrelation function with the first-order autocorrelation function.
[0419] A correction factor that depends on the geometry and alignment of the laser beam in the light scattering setup. It is roughly equal to the inverse of the number of speckle (see Speckle pattern) from which light is collected. A smaller focus of the laser beam yields a coarser speckle pattern, a lower number of speckle on the detector, and thus a larger second order autocorrelation.
[0420] The most important use of the autocorrelation function is its use for size determination. The dynamic information of the particles is derived from an autocorrelation of the intensity trace recorded during the experiment. The second order autocorrelation curve is generated from the intensity trace.
[0421] Dynamic light scattering provides insight into the dynamic properties of soft materials by measuring single scattering events, meaning that each detected photon has been scattered by the sample exactly once. However, the application for many systems of scientific and industrial relevance has been limited due to often-encountered multiple scattering, wherein photons are scattered multiple times by the sample before being detected. Accurate interpretation becomes exceedingly difficult for systems with non-negligible contributions from multiple scattering. Especially for larger particles and those with high refractive index contrast, this limits the technique to very low particle concentrations, and a large variety of systems are, therefore, excluded from investigations with dynamic light scattering. It is possible to suppress multiple scattering in dynamic light scattering experiments via a cross-correlation approach. The general idea is to isolate singly scattered light and suppress undesired contributions from multiple scattering in a dynamic light scattering experiment. Different implementations of cross-correlation light scattering have been developed and applied. Currently, the most widely used scheme is the so-called 3D-dynamic light scattering method. The same method can also be used to correct static light scattering data for multiple scattering contributions. Alternatively, in the limit of strong multiple scattering, a variant of dynamic light scattering called diffusing-wave spectroscopy can be applied.
[0422] Depending on the anisotropy and polydispersity of the system, a resulting plot of (/q2) vs. q2 may or may not show an angular dependence. Small spherical particles will show no angular dependence, hence no anisotropy. A plot of (/q2) vs. q2 will result in a horizontal line. Particles with a shape other than a sphere will show anisotropy and thus an angular dependence when plotting of (/q2) vs. q2. The intercept will be in any case the Dt. Thus there is an optimum angle of detection for each particle size. A high quality analysis should always be performed at several scattering angles (multi-angle DLS). This becomes even more important in a poly-disperse sample with an unknown particle size distribution. At certain angles the scattering intensity of some particles will completely overwhelm the weak scattering signal of other particles, thus making them invisible to the data analysis at this angle. DLS instruments which only work at a fixed angle can only deliver good results for some particles. Thus the indicated precision of a DLS instrument with only one detection angle is only ever true for certain particles. (Dynamic light scattering, Wikipedia, 2018).
[0423] Dt is often used to calculate the hydrodynamic radius of a sphere through the Stokes-Einstein equation. It is important to note that the size determined by dynamic light scattering is the size of a sphere that moves in the same manner as the scatterer. So, for example, if the scatterer is a random coil polymer, the determined size is not the same as the radius of gyration determined by static light scattering. It is also useful to point out that the obtained size will include any other molecules or solvent molecules that move with the particle. So, for example, colloidal gold with a layer of surfactant will appear larger by dynamic light scattering (which includes the surfactant layer) than by transmission electron microscopy (which does not see the layer due to poor contrast).
[0424] In most cases, samples are poly-disperse. Thus, the autocorrelation function is a sum of the exponential decays corresponding to each of the species in the population
[0425] It is tempting to obtain data for g1(q;) and attempt to invert the above to extract G(). Since G() is proportional to the relative scattering from each species, it contains information on the distribution of sizes. However, this is known as an ill-posed problem. The methods described below (and others) have been developed to extract as much useful information as possible from an autocorrelation function.
[0426] One of the most common methods is the cumulant method, from which in addition to the sum of the exponentials above, more information can be derived about the variance of the system as follows:
[0427] where is the average decay rate and 2/2 is the second order polydispersity index (or an indication of the variance). A third-order polydispersity index may also be derived but this is necessary only if the particles of the system are highly poly-disperse. The z-averaged translational diffusion coefficient Dz may be derived at a single angle or at a range of angles depending on the wave vector q.
[0428] One must note that the cumulant method is valid for small r and sufficiently narrow G(). One should seldom use parameters beyond 3, because overfitting data with many parameters in a power-series expansion will render all the parameters including F less precise. The cumulant method is far less affected by experimental noise than the methods below. CONTIN algorithm
[0429] An alternative method for analyzing the autocorrelation function can be achieved through an inverse Laplace transform known as CONTIN developed by Steven Provencher. CONTIN analysis is ideal for hetero-disperse, poly-disperse, and multimodal systems that cannot be resolved with the cumulant method. The resolution for separating two different particle populations is approximately a factor of five or higher and the difference in relative intensities between two different populations should be less than 1:10-5.
[0430] Maximum entropy method is an analysis method that has great developmental potential. The method is also used for the quantification of sedimentation velocity data from analytical ultracentrifugation. The maximum entropy method involves a number of iterative steps to minimize the deviation of the fitted data from the experimental data and subsequently reduce the 2 of the fitted data.
[0431] Scattering of non-spherical particlesIf the particle in question is not spherical, rotational motion must be considered as well because the scattering of the light will be different depending on orientation. According to Pecora, rotational Brownian motion will affect the scattering when a particle fulfills two conditions; they must be both optically and geometrically anisotropic. Rod shaped molecules fulfill these requirements, so a rotational diffusion coefficient must be considered in addition to a translational diffusion coefficient. In its most succinct form the equation appears as
[0432] Where A/B is the ratio of the two relaxation modes (translational and rotational), Mp contains information about the axis perpendicular to the central axis of the particle, and Ml contains information about the axis parallel to the central axis.
[0433] In 2007, Peter R. Lang and his team decided to use dynamic light scattering to determine the particle length and aspect ratio of short gold nanorods. They chose this method due to the fact that it does not destroy the sample and it has a relatively easy setup. Both relaxation states were observed in VV geometry and the diffusion coefficients of both motions were used to calculate the aspect ratios of the gold nanoparticles.
[0434] ApplicationsDLS is used to characterize size of various particles including proteins, polymers, micelles, vesicles, carbohydrates, nanoparticles, biological cells, and gels. If the system is not disperse in size, the mean effective diameter of the particles can be determined. This measurement depends on the size of the particle core, the size of surface structures, particle concentration, and the type of ions in the medium.
[0435] Since DLS essentially measures fluctuations in scattered light intensity due to diffusing particles, the diffusion coefficient of the particles can be determined. DLS software of commercial instruments typically displays the particle population at different diameters. If the system is monodisperse, there should only be one population, whereas a poly-disperse system would show multiple particle populations. If there is more than one size population present in a sample then either the CONTIN analysis should be applied for photon correlation spectroscopy instruments, or the power spectrum method should be applied for Doppler shift instruments.
[0436] Stability studies can be done conveniently using DLS. Periodical DLS measurements of a sample can show whether the particles aggregate over time by seeing whether the hydrodynamic radius of the particle increases. If particles aggregate, there will be a larger population of particles with a larger radius. In some DLS machines, stability depending on temperature can be analyzed by controlling the temperature in situ.
[0437] Malvern Instruments sells the Zetasizer Nano ZSP which is a high performance system and particularly suitable for the characterization of proteins and nanoparticles where the highest sensitivity for size and zeta potential measurement is required. It includes a Protein Measurement option for protein mobility measurements. The system incorporates a two angle particle and molecular size analyzer for the enhanced detection of aggregates and measurement of small or dilute samples, and samples at very low or high concentration using dynamic light scattering with NIBS optics. The ZSP also incorporates a zeta potential analyzer that uses electrophoretic light scattering for particles, molecules and surfaces, and a molecular weight analyzer using static light scattering.

Example 6: Nano-Sized Particle Shape (Nanoparticle Shape) Surface Area to Volume of Nano-Sized Particles
[0438] Measurements of nanoparticle dimensions allow calculations of average nanoparticle surface area (SA) and average nanoparticle volume (Vol). A SA/Vol ratio can be calculated assuming the nanoparticle has a smooth and simple geometric surface and volume.
[0439] Below Tables 1-4, compare calculated values of SA, Vol, and SA/Vol for four different nanoparticle volume shapes: cube, sphere, long round rod, and flat cylinder. In these examples, the long round rod has been made six times longer than its diameter. The flat cylinder has a diameter which is six times greater than its height.
[0440] In Tables 1, 2, 3, and 4, the SA, the Vol, and the SA/Vol are shown for 1, 10, 100, and 1000 nm size nanoparticles.
TABLE-US-00009 TABLE 1 SA/Vol change Nanoparticle Smallest Surface Area Volume compared to Cube Dimension (SA) (nm.sup.2) (Vol) (nm.sup.3) SA/Vol a 1 micron SD = side wall (SD) (nm) SA = 6d.sup.2 Vol = d.sup.3 (nm.sup.1) nanoparticle 1 6 1 6.0 1,000 10 600 1,000 0.60 100 100 60,000 1,000,000 0.060 10 1,000 6,000,000 1,000,000,000 0.0060 1

Note 1: Table 1 and Table 2 calculations indicate a sphere with a diameter the same as the side wall length of a cube, has about one-half the surface area and about one half the volume of the cube.
Note 2: Table 1 and Table 2 calculations show that the SA/Vol ratio of the cube and sphere both increase 1,000-fold and at the same rate as the nanoparticle diameter becomes 1,000-fold less.

[0441] The rates and amounts of molecular events occurring at the surface of the nanoparticle are scaled as a function of the SA per nanoparticle and these events may alter an environment outside the nanoparticle as a function of the total SA of the nanoparticles dispersed in this environment. The surface of the nanoparticle with respect to its external environment creates an interface where various chemical, thermodynamic, and entropic forces interplay. Due to differences between the surface and its events in relation to external environment differences and events, the zone above the nanoparticle in which there the chemical, thermodynamic, and entropic forces need to be considered can be viewed as having a thickness. Thus the interface should not be visualized as necessarily a thin surface but as a potentially complex atmosphere surrounding a nanoparticle, particularly when the nanoparticle is contained within a biological external environment.
Example 7Example of Validation Method To Support Quantification of Particles and Water Clusters Size by Using Calibrated Zetasizer Dynamic Light Scattering
[0442] The presence of individual nanoparticles can be confirmed and their size distribution characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS). DLS reported a bimodal distribution for hydrodynamic diameter ranging between 70-90 and 160-200 nm with mean values of 80 and 178 nm, respectively (Keretsztessy et al. 2009) Below
Example 8Fundamental Need for Products of the Present Invention
[0443] Due to chronic dehydration the fundamental terrain of the human body experiences over time, and especially during aging of a large number of indices, signs, and measures of physiological dehydration which include: (1) dyspeptic pain, (2) stress, (3) depression, (4) high blood cholesterol, (5) high blood pressure, (6) excess body weight, (7) chronic fatigue, (8) arthritis, (9) asthma, (10) allergy, (11) insulin independent diabetes, and (12) rheumatoid arthritis.
[0444] Evidence for chronic dehydration is the rehydration response of a dehydrated person. The benefits of hydration include: (1) a healthy body weight; (2) increased metabolism, (3) increased energy levels, (4) reduced join back pain, (5) easier flushing out of body waste, (6) preventing headaches; (7) alleviating headaches, (8) better skin hydration and skin health, (9) slower aging, (10) stimulation of the primary mode of transport of all nutrients because nutrient transport needs bioavailable water due to its primary role as solute in dissolving nutrients. One factor is smaller water clusters can be a better solute in breaking down cellular debris and allow for its transfer more effectively.

Example 10: Use of Present Invention in Improving Tissue Bio-Preservation
[0447] A growing body of evidence indicates that organ and tissue preservation is now achievable. Recent promising discoveries include organ cryopreservation and subzero cooling, perfusion, interventions before organ and tissue recovery, and adaptations that allow dozens of species in nature to enter suspended animation at subfreezing temperatures. Together, these approaches form a blueprint for a leap forward in preservation capabilities, centered on a combination of two promising strategies: (1) Providing organ life support by recapitulating aspects of the organ's healthy physiological environment. (2) Effectively controlling biological time by slowing or halting metabolism to decrease the rate of deterioration. Progress on both fronts is needed because each preservation approach involves tradeoffs often requiring the application of combined strategies in the same organ or tissue. For instance, slowing organ deterioration for extended preservation periods can be achieved by lowering organ temperature and metabolic rates, but this also entails the loss of normal organ function and opportunities for beneficial interventions, such as organ assessment, repair, and functional augmentation. Thus, some embodiments of the present invention may concern protecting cadaver tissues. The aim of bio-preservation is first an environment to keep a particular organ or tissue healthy on its way to transplantation (or use in research), and a process during which the organ or tissue traverses multiple preservation conditions and temperature ranges that are used synergistically. To make an integrated approach to preservation successful, we must combine and advance a family of research areas that includes cryopreservation, programmed metabolic suppression, subzero preservation and super cooling, and perfusion and ex vivo maintenance at a variety of temperatures, ranging from hypothermia (refrigeration) to normothermia (body temperature), and donor management before organ and tissue recovery. In one embodiment the present invention concerns a bio-preservation media for a hypothermic 2-8 C. biopsy sample preservation. Optionally may be included components that scavenge free radicals, provide pH buffering, oncotic/osmotic support, energy substrates, and ionic concentrations that balance the intracellular state at low temperatures. These components can reduce post-preservation necrosis and apoptosis and extend post-preservation viability.

They join together to form short polymer chains called peptides or longer chains called either polypeptides or proteins. These polymers are linear and unbranched, with each amino acid within the chain attached to two neighboring amino acids. The process of making proteins encoded by DNA/RNA genetic material is called translation and involves the step-by-step addition of amino acids to a growing protein chain by a ribozyme that is called a ribosome. The order in which the amino acids are added is read through the genetic code from an mRNA template, which is an RNA copy of one of the organism's genes.
[0533] Controlled amino acid therapy (CAAT) is a protocol developed for patients with cancer that includes strict dietary guidelines and nutritional supplements that focus on controlling amino acid and carbohydrate intake. 1,2 The protocol was developed by the A.P. John Institute for Cancer Research and is touted to be based on extensive clinical research, but studies in humans or animal models of the entire CAAT protocol have not been published, nor have results of case studies or observational studies from the institute been published. The exact protocol is not reported and the website for the institute is no longer functioning. Findings from one study suggest that a substantial decrease in overall protein intake inhibits cell proliferation in castration-resistant prostate cancer cells and amino acid starvation culture conditions (ie, amino acids not present in culture medium) combined with gefitinib resulted in cytotoxicity of EGFR-expressing cancer cell lines.
[0534] The amino acids are: Alanine, Arginine, Asparagine, Aspartic acid, Cysteine, Glutamine, Glutamic acid, Glycine, Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Proline, Serine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Tyrosine, Tyrosine, and Valine.
[0535] Antioxidant: In an example invention dosage form (spray, inhalation, drink, capsule, tablet) for oral or inhalation use, the dose may range from about 500 and 5,000 mg daily. Because the results of such research seemed very promising, large, long-term studiesmany of which were funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH)were conducted to test whether antioxidant supplements, when taken for periods of at least a few years, could help prevent diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and cancer in people. In these studies, volunteers were randomly assigned to take either an antioxidant or a placebo (an identical-looking product that did not contain the antioxidant). The research was conducted in a double-blind manner (neither the study participants nor the investigators knew which product was being taken). Studies of this typecalled clinical trialsare designed to provide clear answers to specific questions about how a substance affects people's health.
[0536] Example antioxidants include: Ascorbic acid, Glutathione, Lipoic acid, Uric acid, Carotenes, -Tocopherol, and Ubiquinol.

Preferably, the leader sequence is attached to the carboxyl terminal end of the p53 peptide to enable the synthetic peptide to kill transformed and malignant cells.
[0550] Preferably, the leader sequence comprises predominantly positively charged amino acid residues since a positively charged leader sequence stabilizes the alpha helix of a subject peptide. Examples of leader sequences which may be linked to the peptides of the present invention are described in Futaki, S. et al (2001) Arginine-Rich Peptides, J. Biol. Chem. 276:5836-5840.

For use in a product of the present invention, a cell membrane pore forming peptide having a length of 17 amino acids to 35 amino acids, may comprise PPLSQETEFS [SEQ ID NO 48] or ETFSDLWKLL. [SEQ ID NO 49]. Peptides including PNC-27 or other cancer cell membrane pore-forming peptides, may be modified to include a D-amino acid on the amino terminal end in order to slow peptidase activity of the molecule or the peptidase inhibitor leupeptin may be attached to the carboxyl terminal end of the cancer cell membrane pore-forming peptide to slow peptidase activity and lengthen the half-life of the molecules.
[0557] The synthetic cancer cell membrane pore-forming peptides may be synthesized by a number of known techniques. For example, the peptides may be prepared using the solid-phase technique initially described by Merrifield (1963) in J. Am. Chem. Soc. 85:2149-2154. Other peptide synthesis techniques may be found in M. Bodanszky et al. Peptide Synthesis, John Wiley and Sons, 2d Ed., (1976) and other references readily available to those skilled in the art. A summary of polypeptide synthesis techniques may be found in J. Sturm/and J. S. Young, Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis, Pierce Chemical Company, Rockford, Ill., (1984). Peptides may also be synthesized by solution methods as described in The Proteins, Vol. II, 3d Ed., Neurath, H. et al., Eds., pp. 105-237, Academic Press, New York, N.Y. (1976). Appropriate protective groups for use in different peptide syntheses are described in the texts listed above as well as in J. F. W. McOmie, Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry, Plenum Press, New York, N.Y. (1973). The peptides of the present invention may also be prepared by chemical or enzymatic cleavage from larger portions of the p53 protein or from the full length p53 protein. Likewise, leader sequences for use in the synthetic peptides of the present invention may be prepared by chemical or enzymatic cleavage from larger portions or the full length proteins from which such leader sequences are derived. the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth.

[0564] In preferred embodiments of the present invention the formulation comprises a formulation made according to a process depicted in
[0565] (A) Purified water and therapeutic particle embodiments of the present invention can be used in the pharmaceutical industry. Water of this grade is widely used as a raw material, ingredient, and solvent in the processing, formulation, and manufacture of pharmaceutical products, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and intermediates, compendia articles, and analytical reagents. The microbiological content of the water is of importance and the water must be regularly monitored and tested to show that it remains within microbiological control. Embodiments of the present invention are useful source of water for a pharmaceutical use, manufacturing of pharmaceutical products, medical devices, biologics, cell- and tissue-based products, and many other medical products. The two major categories are bulk water (i.e., produced on-site where used from an internal water system) and packaged water (i.e., produced elsewhere, packaged, sterilized to preserve microbial quality throughout the packaged shelf life, and purchased). Regardless of whether its bulk water or packaged water, the type of water is then determined by the testing performed, as defined by United States Pharmacopeia (USP)<1231>Namely-USP<1231>Water for Pharmaceutical Purposes. (Rockville, Md., Mar. 8, 2017. There are a number of pharmaceutical water types. Purified water is most commonly used as a diluent in the production of non-sterile products for injection, infusion or implantation, cleaning equipment, and cleaning non-sterile product-contact components. Purified water systems must be validated to consistently produce and distribute water of acceptable chemical and microbiological quality. However, they may be susceptible to biofilms, undesirable levels of viable microorganisms, or endotoxins, which means frequent sanitization and monitoring to ensure appropriate quality at the points of use. Water for injection (WFI) is most often used as an excipient in the production of sterile products and other preparations when endotoxin content must be controlled. Examples are pharmaceutical applications such as cleaning of certain equipment and sterile product-contact components. WFI must meet all the same chemical requirements of purified water with added bacterial endotoxin specifications, because endotoxins are produced by microorganisms that are prone to inhabit water. As with a water system producing purified water, WFI systems also must be validated to reliably and consistently produce and distribute water of acceptable chemical and microbiological quality. Pure steam is intended for use in steam-sterilizing porous loads and equipment and in other processes, such as cleaning, where condensate would directly contact official articles, containers for these articles, process surfaces that would in turn contact these articles, or materials which are used in analyzing such articles. Pure steam is prepared from suitably pretreated source water, analogous to the pretreatment used for purified water or WFI, vaporized with a suitable mist elimination, and distributed under pressure. Water for hemodialysis is specifically for hemodialysis applications and primarily for the dilution of hemodialysis concentrate solutions. Water for hemodialysis is typically produced and used on site as bulk water. This water contains no added antimicrobials and is not intended for injection.
[0566] Sterile purified water is packaged and rendered sterile. It is used for preparation of sterile products or in analytical applications requiring purified water when access to a validated system is not practical and only a small quantity is needed. It is also used when bulk packaged purified water is not suitably microbiologically controlled. Sterile water for injection is packaged and rendered sterile. This water is for the processing of sterile products intended to be used intravenously. Additionally, it is used for other applications where bulk WFI or purified water is indicated but access to a validated water system is either not practical or only a relatively small quantity is needed. Sterile WFI is typically packaged in single-dose containers that are typically less than 1 L in size. Sterile water for irrigation is packaged and rendered sterile. This water is commonly used when sterile water is required, but when the application does not have particulate matter specifications. Sterile water for irrigation is often packaged in containers that are typically greater than 1 L in size. Sterile water for inhalation is packaged and rendered sterile. This water is usually intended for use with inhalators and in preparation of inhalation solutions. It carries a less stringent specification for bacterial endotoxins than sterile WFI and, therefore, is not suitable for parenteral applications.
[0567] Bacteriostatic water for injection is a sterile water for injection to which one or more suitable antimicrobial preservatives have been added. This water is typically intended for use as a diluent in the preparation of sterile products, mostly for multi-dose products that require repeated content withdrawals, such as liquid pharmaceuticals. It may be packaged in single-dose or multiple-dose containers, usually less than 30 mL. With nine different types of water, each with specific testing requirements and applications, it is crucial to understand how they can impact products. In summary, embodiments of the present invention can be used for a pharmaceutical grade water use may be selected from the group consisting of a purified water, water for injection (WFI), pure steam, a water for hemodialysis, an intravenous water, an enema water, an eye wash, an eye drop, a nose drop, an ear drop, a sterile water for injection, a sterile water for inhalation including a ventilator delivering an aerosol to the nasal cavity or pulmonary airway, a sterile water for irrigation of a body cavity, a bacteriostatic water for injection, and a combination thereof.
[0568] Embodiments of the present invention can be used in a laboratory use. Technical standards on water quality have been established by a number of professional organizations, including the American Chemical Society (ACS), ASTM International, the U.S. National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) which is now CLSI, and the U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP). The ASTM, NCCLS, and ISO 3696 or the International Organization for Standardization classify purified water into Grade 1-3 or Types I-IV depending on the level of purity. These organizations have similar, although not identical, parameters for highly purified water. Note that the European Pharmacopeia uses Highly Purified Water (HPW) as a definition for water meeting the quality of Water For Injection, without however having undergone distillation. In the laboratory context, highly purified water is used to denominate various qualities of water having been highly purified. Regardless of which organization's water quality norm is used, even Type I water may require further purification depending on the specific, laboratory application. For example, water that is being used for molecular-biology experiments needs to be DNase or RNase-free, which requires special additional treatment or functional testing. Water for microbiology experiments needs to be completely sterile, which is usually accomplished by autoclaving. Water used to analyze trace metals may require the elimination of trace metals to a standard beyond that of the Type I water norm. IN some cases, an embodiment of the present invention could be used in lab work and biological experiments. Electrical conductivityThe electrical conductivity of ultra-pure water is 5.510.sup.6 S/m (18 M.Math.cm in the reciprocal terms of electrical resistivity) and is due only to H+ and OH ions produced in the water dissociation equilibrium. This low conductivity is only achieved, however, in the presence of dissolved monatomic gases. Completely de-gassed ultrapure water has a conductivity of 1.2104 S/m, whereas on equilibration to the atmosphere it is 7.5105 S/m due to dissolved CO.sub.2 in it. The highest grades of ultrapure water should not be stored in glass or plastic containers because these container materials leach (release) contaminants at very low concentrations. Storage vessels made of silica are used for less-demanding applications and vessels of ultrapure tin are used for the highest-purity applications. It is worth noting that, although electrical conductivity only indicates the presence of ions, the majority of common contaminants found naturally in water ionize to some degree. This ionization is a good measure of the efficacy of a filtration system, and more expensive systems incorporate conductivity-based alarms to indicate when filters should be refreshed or replaced. For comparison,[12] sea water has a conductivity of perhaps 5 S/m (53 mS/cm is quoted), while normal un-purified tap water may have conductivity of 5 mS/m (50 S/cm) (to within an order of magnitude), which is still about 2 or 3 orders of magnitude higher than the output from a well-functioning demineralizing or distillation mechanism, so low levels of contamination or declining performance are easily detected.

[0571] The drinking of purified water as a replacement of drinking water has been both advocated and discouraged for health reasons. Purified water lacks minerals and ions such as calcium that play key roles in biological functions, such as in nervous system homeostasis, and are normally found in potable water. The lack of naturally occurring minerals in distilled water has raised some concerns. The Journal of General Internal Medicine published a study on the mineral contents of different waters available in the US. The study found that drinking water sources available to North Americans may contain high levels of calcium, magnesium, and sodium and may provide clinically important portions of the recommended dietary intake of these minerals. It encouraged people to check the mineral content of their drinking water, whether tap or bottled, and choose water most appropriate for their needs. Since distilled water is devoid of minerals, supplemental mineral intake through diet is needed to maintain proper health. The consumption of hard water (water with minerals) is associated with beneficial cardiovascular effects. As noted in the American Journal of Epidemiology, the consumption of hard drinking water is negatively correlated with atherosclerotic heart disease.
[0572] Ultra Pure Water (UPW)
[0573] According to Wikipedia (2018), Ultrapure water (also UPW or high-purity water) is water that has been purified to uncommonly stringent specifications. Ultrapure water is a commonly used term in the semiconductor industry to emphasize the fact that the water is treated to the highest levels of purity for all contaminant types, including: organic and inorganic compounds; dissolved and particulate matter; volatile and non-volatile, reactive and inert; hydrophilic and hydrophobic; and dissolved gases. UPW and commonly used term deionized (DI) water are not the same. In addition to the fact that UPW has organic particles and dissolved gases removed, a typical UPW system has three stages: a pretreatment stage to produce purified water, a primary stage to further purify the water, and a polishing stage, the most expensive part of the treatment process. A number of organizations and groups develop and publish standards associated with the production of UPW. Pharmaceutical plants follow water quality standards as developed by pharmacopeial, of which three examples are the United States Pharmacopeia, European Pharmacopeia, and Japanese Pharmacopeia. The most widely used requirements for UPW quality are documented by ASTM D5127 Standard Guide for Ultra-Pure Water Used in the Electronics and Semiconductor Industries and SEMI F63 Guide for ultrapure water used in semiconductor processing. Bacteria, particles, organic and inorganic sources of contamination vary depending on a number of factors including the feed water to make UPW as well as the selection of the piping materials to convey it. Bacteria are typically reported in colony-forming units (CFU) per volume of UPW. Particles use number per volume of UPW. Total organic carbon (TOC), metallic contaminants, and anionic contaminants are measured in dimensionless terms of parts per notation, such as ppm, ppb, ppt and ppq. Bacteria have been referred to as one of the most obstinate in this list to control. Techniques that help in minimizing bacterial colony growth within UPW streams include occasional chemical or steam sanitization (which is common in the pharmaceutical industry), ultrafiltration (found in some pharmaceutical, but mostly semiconductor industries), ozonation and optimization of piping system designs that promote the use of Reynolds Number criteria for minimum flow along with minimization of dead legs. In modern advanced UPW systems positive (higher than zero) bacteria counts are typically observed in the newly constructed facilities. This issue is effectively addressed by sanitization using ozone or hydrogen peroxide. With proper design of the polishing and distribution system no positive bacteria counts are typically detected throughout the life cycle of the UPW system. Particles can be controlled by use of filtration and ultrafiltration. Sources can include bacterial fragments, the sloughing of the component walls within the conduit's wetted stream and also the cleanliness of the jointing processes used to build the piping system.
[0574] Total organic carbon (TOC) in ultrapure water can contribute to bacterial proliferation by providing nutrients, can substitute as a carbide for another chemical species in a sensitive thermal process, react in unwanted ways with biochemical reactions in bioprocessing and, in severe cases, leave unwanted residues on production parts. TOC can come from the feed water used to produce UPW, from the components used to convey the UPW (additives in the manufacturing piping products or extrusion aides and mold release agents), from subsequent manufacturing and cleaning operations of piping systems or from dirty pipes, fittings and valves.
[0575] Metallic and anionic contamination in UPW systems can shut down enzymatic processes in bioprocessing, Depending on the level of purity needed, detection of these contaminants can range from simple conductivity (electrolytic) readings to sophisticated instrumentation such as ion chromatography (IC), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AA) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS).
[0576] ApplicationsThe polishing stage is a set of treatment steps and is usually a recirculation and distribution system, continuously treating and recirculating the purified water in order to maintain stable high purity quality of supplied water. Traditionally the resistivity of water serves as an indication of the level of purity of UPW. Deionized (DI) water may have a purity of at least one million ohms-centimeter or one Mohm.Math.cm. Typical UPW quality is at the theoretical maximum of water resistivity (18.18 Mohm.Math.cm at 25 C.). Therefore the term has acquired measurable standards that further define both advancing needs and advancing technology in ultrapure water production. If in-line conductivity exceeds values additional testing is required before a conclusion can be made. Refer to the respective pharmacopoeia for details.
[0577] Ultrapure water is treated through multiple steps to meet the quality standards for different users. The ultrapure water term became more popular in the later 1970s and early 1980s as a way of describing the particular quality of water used in power, pharmaceutical, or semiconductor facilities. While each industry uses what it calls ultrapure water, the quality standards vary, meaning that the UPW used by a pharmaceutical plant is different than that used in a semiconductor fab or a power station. The standards tie into the UPW use. For instance, semiconductor plants use UPW as a cleaning agent, so it is important that the water not contain dissolved contaminants that can precipitate or particles that may lodge on circuits and cause microchip failures. The power industry uses UPW as a source to make steam to drive steam turbines; pharmaceutical facilities will use UPW as a cleaning agent, as well as an ingredient in products, so they seek water free of endotoxins, microbials, and viruses.
[0578] Ion exchange (IX) and electrodeionization (EDI) are the primary deionization technologies associated with UPW production, in most cases following reverse osmosis (RO). Depending on the required water quality, UPW treatment plants often also feature degasification, microfiltration, ultrafiltration, ultraviolet irradiation, and measurement instruments (e.g., total organic carbon [TOC], resistivity/conductivity, particles, pH, and specialty measurements for specific ions). In pure water systems, electrolytic conductivity or resistivity measurement is the most common indicator of ionic contamination. The same basic measurement is read out in either conductivity units of microsiemens per centimeter (S/cm), typical of the pharmaceutical and power industries or in resistivity units of megohm-centimeters (Mohm.Math.cm) used in the microelectronics industries. These units are reciprocals of each other. Absolutely pure water has a conductivity of 0.05501 S/cm and a resistivity of 18.18 Mohm.Math.cm at 25 C., the most common reference temperature to which these measurements are compensated. An example of the sensitivity to contamination of these measurements is that 0.1 ppb of sodium chloride raises the conductivity of pure water to 0.05523 S/cm and lowers the resistivity to 18.11 Mohm.Math.cm.
[0579] Ultrapure water is easily contaminated by traces of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere passing through tiny leaks or diffusing through thin wall polymer tubing when sample lines are used for measurement. Carbon dioxide forms conductive carbonic acid in water. For this reason, conductivity probes are most often permanently inserted directly into the main ultrapure water system piping to provide real-time continuous monitoring of contamination. These probes contain both conductivity and temperature sensors to enable accurate compensation for the very large temperature influence on the conductivity of pure waters. Conductivity probes have an operating life of many years in pure water systems. They require no maintenance except for periodic verification of measurement accuracy, typically annually. Sodium is usually the first ion to break through a depleted cation exchanger. Sodium measurement can quickly detect this condition and is widely used as the indicator for cation exchange regeneration. The conductivity of cation exchange effluent is always quite high due to the presence of anions and hydrogen ion and therefore conductivity measurement is not useful for this purpose. Sodium is also measured in power plant water and steam samples because it is a common corrosive contaminant and can be detected at very low concentrations in the presence of higher amounts of ammonia and/or amine treatment which have a relatively high background conductivity. On-line sodium measurement in ultrapure water most commonly uses a glass membrane sodium ion-selective electrode and a reference electrode in an analyzer measuring a small continuously flowing side-stream sample. The voltage measured between the electrodes is proportional to the logarithm of the sodium ion activity or concentration, according to the Nernst equation. Because of the logarithmic response, low concentrations in sub-parts per billion ranges can be measured routinely. To prevent interference from hydrogen ion, the sample pH is raised by the continuous addition of a pure amine before measurement.
[0580] Calibration at Low Concentrations is Often Done
[0581] Non-volatile residueAnother type of contamination in UPW is dissolved inorganic material, primarily silica. Silica is one of the most abundant mineral on the planet and is found in all water supplies. TOCTotal organic carbon is most commonly measured by oxidizing the organics in the water to CO.sub.2, measuring the increase in the CO.sub.2 concentration after the oxidation. Oxidation of organics to CO.sub.2 is most commonly achieved in liquid solutions by the creation of the highly oxidizing chemical species, the hydroxyl radical (OH.). For the typical TOC levels in UPW systems most methods utilize hydroxyl radicals in the liquid phase. There are multiple methods to create sufficient concentrations of hydroxyl radicals needed to completely oxidize the organics in water to CO.sub.2, each method being appropriate for different water purity levels. For typical raw waters feeding into the front end of an UPW purification system the raw water can contain TOC levels between 0.7 mg/L to 15 mg/L and require a robust oxidation method that can insure there is enough oxygen available to completely convert all the carbon atoms in the organic molecules into CO.sub.2. Robust oxidation methods that supply sufficient oxygen include the following methods; Ultraviolet light (UV) & persulfate, heated persulfate, combustion, and super critical oxidation. Typical equations showing persulfate generation of hydroxyl radicals follows.
S.sub.2O.sub.8.sup.2+hv (254 nm).fwdarw.2 SO.sub.2.sup.1. and SO.sub.2.sup.1+H.sub.2O.fwdarw.HSO.sub.4.sup.1+OH.
[0582] When the organic concentration is less than 1 mg/L as TOC and the water is saturated with oxygen UV light is sufficient to oxidize the organics to CO.sub.2, this is a simpler oxidation method. The wavelength of the UV light for the lower TOC waters must be less than 200 nm and is typically 184 nm generated by a low pressure Hg vapor lamp. The 184 nm UV light is energetic enough to break the water molecule into OH and H radicals. The hydrogen radicals quickly react to create H.sub.2. The equations follow: H.sub.2O+hv (185 nm) OH.+H. and H.+H..fwdarw.H.sub.2
[0583] UPW Purification process (Wikipedia, 2018) involves the following processes. Typically city feed water (containing all the unwanted contaminants previously mentioned) is taken through a series of purification steps that, depending on the quality of UPW wanted, includes gross filtration for large particulates, carbon filtration, water softening, reverse osmosis, exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light for TOC and/or bacterial static control, polishing using either ion exchange resins or electro-deionization (EDI) and finally filtration or ultrafiltration.
[0584] Some systems use direct return, reverse return or serpentine loops that return the water to a storage area, providing continuous re-circulation, while others are single-use systems that run from point of UPW production to point of use. The constant re-circulation action in the former continuously polishes the water with every pass. The latter can be prone to contamination build up if it is left stagnant with no use. For modern UPW systems it is important to consider specific site and process requirements such as environmental constraints (e.g., wastewater discharge limits) and reclaim opportunities (e.g., is there a mandated minimum amount of reclaim required). UPW systems consist of three subsystems: pretreatment, primary, and polishing. Most systems are similar in design but may vary in the pretreatment section depending on the nature of the source water.
[0585] Pretreatment: Pretreatment produces purified water. Typical pretreatments employed are two pass Reverse Osmosis, Demineralization plus Reverse Osmosis or HERO (High Efficiency Reverse Osmosis). In addition, the degree of filtration upstream of these processes will be dictated by the level of suspended solids, turbidity and organics present in the source water. The common types of filtration are multi-media, automatic back washable filters and ultrafiltration for suspended solids removal and turbidity reduction and Activated Carbon for the reduction of organics. The Activated Carbon may also be used for removal of chlorine upstream of the Reverse Osmosis of Demineralization steps. If Activated Carbon is not employed then sodium bisulfite is used to de-chlorinate the feed water. Primary: Primary treatment consists of ultraviolet light (UV) for organic reduction, EDI and or mixed bed ion exchange for demineralization. The mixed beds may be non-regenerable (following EDI), in-situ or externally regenerated. The last step in this section may be dissolved oxygen removal utilizing the membrane degasification process or vacuum degasification.
[0586] Polishing: Polishing consists of UV, Heat exchange to control constant temperature in the UPW supply, non-regenerable ion exchange, membrane degasification (to polish to final UPW requirements) and ultrafiltration to achieve the required particle level. Some semiconductor Fabs require hot UPW for some of their processes. In this instance polished UPW is heated in the range of 70 to 80 C before being delivered to manufacturing. Most of these systems include heat recovery wherein the excess hot UPW returned from manufacturing goes to a heat recovery unit before being returned to the UPW feed tank to conserve on the use of heating water or the need to cool the hot UPW return flow.[39]
[0587] Stainless steel remains a piping material of choice for the pharmaceutical industry. Due to its metallic contribution, most steel was removed from microelectronics UPW systems in the 1980s and replaced with high performance polymers of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), [1] perfluoroalkoxy (PFA), ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene (ECTFE) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in the US and Europe. In Asia, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) and polypropylene (PP) are popular, along with the high performance polymers.
[0588] The polishing stage is a set of treatment steps and is usually a recirculation and distribution system, continuously treating and recirculating the purified water in order to maintain stable high purity quality of supplied water. Traditionally the resistivity of water serves as an indication of the level of purity of UPW. Deionized (DI) water may have a purity of at least one million ohms-centimeter or one Mohm.Math.cm. Typical UPW quality is at the theoretical maximum of water resistivity (18.18 Mohm.Math.cm at 25 C.).
