Granted: 1986-08-07
Abstract: An improved powdered bacterial growth medium compositon adapted to be admixed with water is described. The powdered growth medium includes an alkali metal cation in a compound A admixed with a compound B containing an anion which reacts wth the alkali metal cation in compound A in an aqueous growth medium to form an essentially water insoluble salt or base, including the alkali metal cation and the anion, which is acid neutralizing. The water insoluble salt is thus formed in situ in the aqueous growth medium when compounds A and B are added to the aqueous solution. Also described is an improved method for growing acid producing bacteria in an aqueous growth medium by forming the insoluble salt or base. The resulting growth medium is particularly adapted for neutralizing acids generated during growth of lactic acid producing bacteria which are grown for use in various food fermentations.

Title: Overvoltage protection circuit for electronic appts - has incoming cable cores connected to surge diverters centre tapped to earth
IPC: H02H9/06
Filed: 1971-07-26
Abstract: An overvoltage protection circuit for electronic apparatus used in telecommunications equipment. Incoming cable cores (a, b) are connected to conventional surge diverters (U1, U2) centre-tapped to earth. To absorb spikes which may get through during the response time of the diverters each core is provided with a series choke (L1, L2) and resistor (R1, R2). The chokes delay the increase in current which would otherwise be caused by a voltage spike. A capacitor (Ce, across the cores between chokes and resistors, acts as voltage divider in conjunction with the chokes, and helps to limit the voltage until the diverters respond. It may also assist in positive extinguishing of the diverters after they have responded.
