Abstract: The present invention relates to the modification of pentosans from cereals. Specifically, the pentosans are heat- and alkali treated. Optionally, the pentosans are crosslinked using a cross-linking agent. After neutralisation the pentosan derivatives are, depending on the desired application, washed and dried. The pentosan derivatives show a high water binding capacity and are used for this capacity as component of super absorber in tissue paper, hygienic products, cat box filler and as binder in agricultural soil covers or in solid-state fermentation media.

Abstract: A system and method for relating files in a distributed data storage environment is described that allows for positive identification of membership of a file within a group, even in a loosely coupled environment where files are not available for comparison in real time. In disclosed embodiments, base files of a client are stored on a server and are accompanied by tokens uniquely identifying the base files. The tokens are generated on the client and may be derived from the contents of the base file using a digital signature. Each file transmitted to the server is accompanied with a token. Incremental backups may be used, and may employ file differencing. Accordingly, sub-files related to the base files may be transmitted to the server for backup. The sub-files are related to their respective base files using the tokens and are cross-linked to the base files so that any sub-files can be retrieved together with the base file from which the sub-file was derived. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In conventional ovens the heating elements are controlled by a thermostat which cycles the temperature between a minimum and maximum cavity temperature. The cycling is constant over the whole cooking time. According to the invention the energy supply is controlled by the obtaining of a stable cycling, subsequent to which the temperature drops a predetermined amount, followed by renewed feeding of energy until stable conditions again prevail, and the process repeats itself. This type of control permits considerable energy savings. <IMAGE>
