Title: Rheologically modified confectioneries produced by employing particular particle size distributions
Inventor: KAISER JOHN MARK
IPC: A23G1/56
Filed: 1999-03-12
Granted: 2003-01-30
Abstract: This invention relates to confectioneries, and particularly reduced fat chocolates comprising an admixture of non-fat chocolate ingredients in accordance with specified particle size distribution formulae, and the method of preparation thereof. Controlling particle packing, using continuous particle size ingredient distributions and discrete, bi-modal particle size ingredient distributions, has been shown to be useful for achieving highly concentrated chocolate suspensions, having reduced fat concentrations and suitable rheology for moulding, enrobing or extrusion. The methods of this invention are also useful for providing conventional chocolates (25% or greater fat content) having good rheological characteristics, while reducing cocoa butter usage. Specified particle size distributions are achieved through the selective blending of fine, medium and coarse ingredients. The continuous particle size distributions and bi-modal particle size distributions provide several parameters for manipulating the rheological properties of chocolate.

Title: Absorbent inserts, method of producing them and their use
Inventor: JONAS GERD
IPC: C08F261/04
Filed: 1997-06-27
Granted: 2000-07-06
Abstract: The invention relates to an absorbent insert for foodstuff packagings, the liquid-absorbing component of which is a superabsorbent polymer which, in a hitherto unrivaled fashion, persistently absorbs and retains large quantities of liquid even under high pressure load, protects the foodstuffs from bacterial decay, and prevents contamination of the packagingd goods by migrating soluble constituents of the polymer. This combination of properties of the superabsorbers used is expressed by the QSAP 0.3 quotient of retention according to the tea bag test+absorption against pressure (AAP) 0.3, divided by the amount of solubles (LA), which quotient is at least 20. Superabsorbers having such properties are obtained by using special combinations of crosslinkers. Furthermore, the invention relates to a process for producing said absorbent inserts and their use in foodstuff packagings, as ice substitute, and as leak-proofing means in transport packagings.

Title: Methods for coagulation monitoring
Inventor: LIPSCOMB MYATT S
IPC: G01N33/49
Filed: 1985-10-15
Granted: 1989-12-07
Abstract: Improved methods for the determination of clotting times of fibrinogen, APTT and PT are provided. Surprising and unexpected accuracy is obtained by combining a backward-looking approach to determine a desired range of values over times T1 and T2, selected in accordance with predetermined percentages of the observed Vmax, thereby avoiding early false positives due to noise and other inhomogeneities from reagent sample mixing. Thereafter, a regression analysis is performed over the time period T1 and T2 and from the derived function, the coagulation time is determined by calculating the time associated with the predetermined percentage of Vmax.

Title: Improved method for the detection of creatinine
Inventor: CAST TODD K
IPC: G01N33/70
Filed: 1999-09-27
Granted: 2003-02-27
Abstract: Disclosed is an improvement to the assay for creatinine in fluid test samples by contacting the test sample with a reagent formulation containing cupric ions, a hydroperoxide and an oxidizable dye. The improvement involves the inclusion of one or more selected quinolines in the reagent formulation. When the quinoline is substituted with methyl in the 2-5 position and/or a methoxy in the 2-6 position autooxidation of the oxidizable dye is reduced. When the quinoline is further substituted in an otherwise unsubstituted carbon atom in the 2-8 position, the assay's resistance to interference from hemoglobin and ascorbate is increased.

Abstract: An apparatus has first propellers (20) and second propellers (21) alternating with the first propellers. Each propeller has one or more helical biting edges (24a) protruding into a guide passage (28) through which a raw material (W) advances.
