Title: Process for modifying and/or increasing vitamin D content of mushrooms
Inventor: JUAN VALVERDE FERNANDEZ
IPC: A23L3/00
Filed: 2016-09-09
Abstract: A process for increasing the Vitamin D content of mushrooms with a precision of approximately 12% comprises the steps of (a) pre-selecting mushrooms from flush 1, flush 2 or flush 3; (b) measuring the diameter and weight of the mushrooms; c) calculating surface area to volume ratio of the mushrooms; (d) selecting mushrooms with a surface area to volume ratio from 0.5 to 2.5 cm-1; (e); and passing the mushrooms with cap or pileus facing upwards under a UV light source, wherein the distance from the UV light source is from approximately 5 to 30 cm and the mushrooms receive from 1 to 5 pulses of UV radiation to result in the mushroom receiving from 0.6 to 15 mJ/cm2 of UV radiation. The advantage is a consistent level of Vitamin D in the mushroom post-treatment.

Title: Processing method using binary intermediate representations
Inventor: YIJUN YU
IPC: G06F8/40
Filed: 2018-07-25
Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving source code, the source code having an associated grammar, generating a binary intermediate representation (IR) of the source code, and performing subsequent processing on the binary intermediate representation.

Title: Apparatus for treating tumors by evanescent waves
Inventor: MEHRAN MATLOUBIAN
IPC: H04B15/02
Filed: 2018-11-07
Abstract: Current cancer treatments such as surgery, radiation and chemotherapy have significant side-effects for the patients. New treatments are being developed to reduce these side-effects while giving doctors alternative methods to treat patients. This invention introduces a new apparatus for treatment of malignant tumors including brain cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, and breast cancer. The apparatus couples RF power into the tumor using evanescent waves. The evanescent waves disrupt the division of cancer cells causing the cancer cells to die and shrink the size of the tumor. Due to the targeted approach of the evanescent waves, less RF energy is wasted in healthy cells.
