Patent EP-3649233-A1 (EP)
Title: Novel microbial biomass based feed products
Inventor: SEFTON BRIAN
IPC: C12R1/00
Filed: 2018-07-02
Abstract: Aquafeed, animal feed, and other food products, as well as nutritional and pharmaceutical compounds, chemicals and biomaterials are important commodities that can be produced at commercial scale by fermentation of microorganisms. The present invention provides a method for producing these valuable multi-carbon compounds from simple gas feedstocks, such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen and oxygen, by cultivating a consortium of microbial cells specially selected for this purpose in an aqueous culture medium. In addition to exploiting inexpensive feedstocks, such as waste industrial gas for this cultivation, the platform described herein also provides the advantage of removing carbon dioxide and other waste gases from industrial emissions, which would otherwise contribute to global climate change. Furthermore, the cultivation of a microbial consortium can provide highly nutritious components to a feed blend that might not be available from a monoculture.

Patent EP-3735606-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MARSH RICHARD
IPC: G02B21/36
Filed: 2018-12-21
Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system for processing microscopy images to enable localisation analysis of high density raw data, and thereby achieve higher spatial resolution than would otherwise be the case. This is achieved by exploiting temporal redundancies in the image data resulting from close-to emitters that would otherwise be resolved as a single emitter were they to emit or fluoresce at the same time, but which, by virtue of emitting or fluorescing at slightly different (yet potentially overlapping) times, can be subject to temporal filtering by different filters of different temporal bandwidth to resolve the two emitters. Effectively, the different temporal filters have different time constants which work together to effectively highlight the different emission or fluorescence times of the two emitters, to thereby allow the two close-to emitters to be separately resolved.

Title: Detection and monitoring of dosage delivery for vaporized waxes, solids or viscous oils, and cannabinoids
Inventor: GARCIA ANTONIO
IPC: A61M15/00
Filed: 2018-07-11
Abstract: A sensing module for monitoring dosage delivery of a vaporized material, and a portable vaporization unit including the sensing module, include a light sensor that detects disruptions in a light path across a vapor channel, the disruptions caused by the vaporized material flowing through the vapor channel. The light sensor includes a UV light source, which may emit 370 nm wavelength light, and a UV light detector that converts intensity of incident light in the light path into a signal. A microprocessor of the sensing module compares the signal to a baseline measurement to determine the concentration of a medicament in the vapor; then, using the flow rate and activation time of the device, the microprocessor determines the dosage and can perform monitoring and reporting actions based on the dosage. A measuring circuit measures fluctuations in resistance/impedance of a vaporization element to further determine flow rate and/or dosage.
