Such compositions have utility as retarders for acid compositions employed in the stimulation of subterranean formations. Slowing the reaction between the acid and formation helps maximize formation permeability and productivity.

Thin profile user interface device and method providing localized haptic response

Electromechanical polymer (EMP) actuators are used to create haptic effects on a user interface deface, such as a keyboard. The keys of the keyboard may be embossed in a top layer to provide better key definition and to house the EMP actuator. Specifically, an EMP actuator is housed inside an embossed graphic layer that covers a key of the keyboard. Such a keyboard has a significant user interface value. For example, the embossed key provides the tactile effect of the presence of a key with edges, while allowing for the localized control of haptic vibrations. For such applications, an EMP transducer provides high strains, vibrations or both under control of an electric field. Furthermore, the EMP transducer can generate strong vibrations. When the frequency of the vibrations falls within the acoustic range, the EMP transducer can generate audible sound, thereby functioning as an audio speaker.

Disclosed are methods, kits, and devices for diagnosing and treating psychiatric disorders and the symptoms thereof. The methods, kits, and devices relate to identifying genetic markers that may be utilized to diagnose and/or prognose a patient and treat the diagnosed and/or prognosed patient by administering a drug the patient based on the genetic marker having been identified. Genetic markers identified in the methods may include HTR2C polymorphisms such as a polymorphism resulting in a Cys23Ser amino acid substitution, an rs3813929 (-759C/T) polymorphism, and an rs518147 (-697G/C) polymorphism). 1. A method comprising:(a) receiving results of a test indicating that a patient has a HTR2C polymorphism, wherein the HTR2C polymorphism is selected from the group consisting of a polymorphism resulting in a Cys23Ser amino acid substitution, an rs3813929 (-759C/T) polymorphism, and an rs518147 (-697G/C) polymorphism; and(b) administering an antipsychotic drug (APD) to the patient after receiving the results of the test.2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the test comprises amplifying at least a portion of the HTR2C gene from the nucleic acid sample and detecting the HTR2C polymorphism in the amplified portion.3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the test comprises sequencing at least a portion of the HTR2C gene from the nucleic acid sample or from an amplicon obtained by amplifying at least a portion of the HTR2C gene from the nucleic acid sample.4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the test comprises contacting nucleic acid comprising the HTR2C polymorphism with a nucleic acid probe that hybridizes specifically to nucleic acid comprising the HTR2C polymorphism.5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the test comprises determining whether the nucleic acid sample is homozygous for the HTR2C polymorphism.6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the test comprises determining whether the nucleic acid sample is heterozygous for the HTR2C polymorphism.7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ...
