Title: Temperature monitoring catheter
Inventor: SULLIVAN MICHAEL D
IPC: G01K7/22
Filed: 1984-09-25
Granted: 1987-07-09
Abstract: A temperature monitoring catheter which has an elongated shaft having a distal end and a proximal end and a wall portion defining a drainage lumen extending longitudinally therethrough. The wall portion can also define a longitudinally extending inflation lumen which extends therethrough. The drainage lumen opens at the proximal end of the shaft through a drainage eyelet. An elastic, inflatable sleeve portion can be bonded to and extend annularly around a portion of the proximal end of the shaft. The elastic, inflatable sleeve portion is in fluid communication with the inflation lumen so that it can be inflated for retaining the catheter in a patient's body. A temperature thermistor is imbedded in the wall of the shaft at the proximal end of the shaft. A bifilar electric wire coil, helically wound, is imbedded in the wall of the shaft and connected at one end to the temperature thermistor. The other end of the bifilar wire extends from the distal end of the shaft for providing a connection to a power source and to a temperature monitor.

Title: Fermentation processes and their products
Inventor: MOLZAHN STUART WILLIAM
IPC: C12C11/00
Filed: 1984-12-21
Granted: 1988-07-07
Abstract: The invention provides a process for the production of ethanol and a protein or peptide which is heterologous to yeast which comprises fermenting an aqueous sugar-containing medium with an industrial yeast strain which has been genetically modified to be capable of expressing a heterologous protein or peptide, recovering the ethanol so-formed, and obtaining the said heterologous protein or peptide from the fermentation products. The process may be applied to the industrial production of alcoholic beverages such as beer or distilled alcohol. The yeast inevitably obtained as a by-product in the process has improved value because of the heterologous protein or peptide which it contains and provides a source of the latter. Heterologous protein and peptides which may be produced by the new process include enzymes such as beta-lactamase, beta-glucanase and beta-galactosidase and proteins of therapeutic value such as human serum albumen.

Title: Method and device for separating solid particles from a slurry
Inventor: KUPKA DIETER
IPC: F26B7/00
Filed: 1999-04-23
Granted: 2002-04-11
Abstract: Process for liquid filtration in a two-stage process comprises concentrating solids in a filtration section, passing the concentrated wet solids into a second vessel, in which they are dewatered in a press, and disintegrating, drying and removing. The installation has two vessels: a filter unit (1) and a press unit (2). The raw fluid is pumped into unit (1), which contains two sets of filter candles (7o,7u), one facing vertically downwards and the other facing vertically upwards. Each set is mounted in a circular pattern at different pitch circle diameters on separately driven supports so that they can rotate concentrically in contrary motion. This provides the principal circulation in the primary concentration stage. Blades (11o,11u) at the top and the bottom drive fluid downward and upward respectively around the candles. The concentrate passes through line (3a) into the press chamber (16) whose jaws are closed hydraulically. Additives (K1) may be used to aid dewatering during compression. When compression is complete the jaws are partially opened and the lower plate is rotated so that teeth on both plates disintegrate the filter cake. The particles fall into a drying chamber where they are fluidized by a number of rotating blades (18). Drying heat is supplied either by hot filtrate passing through the double walls of the drying chamber, or by direct radiation. The principal objective is therefore to allow the filter elements to operate at relatively low pressure so that only their surfaces retain the residues and the pores remain unclogged. Altogether 60 subsidiary claims, supported by drawings, describe aspects of the system.

Title: Analytical method for evaluating flavor stability of fermented alcoholic beverage using electron spin resonance
Inventor: ONO MIYOKO
IPC: C12H1/00
Filed: 1995-12-28
Granted: 1998-07-23
Abstract: Quantitative determination and evaluation of the flavor stability of fermented alcoholic beverages are performed by measuring the changes of the amounts of spin adduct from the formation behavior of active oxygen with passage of time using an ESR apparatus and either determining the value on the time axis of the inflection point of changes of the amounts of spin adduct (defined as the active oxygen formation lag time) or determining the amount of spin adduct after a predetermined time has elapsed after the start of measurement (defined as the active oxygen formation activity). The longer the active oxygen formation lag time or the lower the active oxygen formation activity, the greater the oxygen resistance of the fermented alcoholic beverage, thus making it possible to evaluate that fermented alcoholic beverage as having good flavor stability. In addition, if the formation behavior of active oxygen of semi-finished products in the production process is measured in the same manner, the quality of flavor stability when that semi-finished product has become a finished product can be predicted and evaluated.

Abstract: A process of producing a texturized protein product having a layered meat-like texture and appearance in which only vegetable protein material, particularly soy flour, and water are used as ingredients. A dough-like slurry of soy flour and water is pumped into the gap between a fixed plate and a rapidly rotating plate in a high speed emulsion mill under conditions which rapidly heat the slurry to a temperature above 100 DEG  C. to rapidly texturize the protein. The hot slurry is pumped under positive pressure by centrifugal force from the emulsion mill directly into an elongated process tube in which the texturized protein slurry rapidly coagulates to form in the tube a continuous loaf having distinct parallel layers of soy protein bonded together which maintains its structure upon discharge from the tube. The continuous loaf is cut into pieces of a desired dimension with the pieces having a layered meat-like appearance and texture with the pieces retaining their shape and layered structure under commercial processing conditions including canning, retorting, drying, rehydration, freezing, thawing, and the like.
