Patent CA-2465440-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BEGG PETER
IPC: A23L19/12
Filed: 2004-04-27
Abstract: The present invention provides starchy food products, especially cooked and fully hydrated potato compositions, including fully hydrated mashed potato compositions and fully hydrated cut potato compositions, which are stabilized against the development of toxins from pathogenic bacterial contaminants. The stabilized compositions are attained by the incorporation of raisin-containing dairy composition derived from a nisin-producing culture. The invention also relates to methods of stabilizing starchy food products, especially cooked and fully hydrated potato compositions, including fully hydrated mashed potato compositions and fully hydrated cut potato compositions, against the development of toxins, wherein the method comprises incorporating raisin-containing dairy composition derived from a raisin-producing culture to the starchy food product. Since these compositions are cooked and fully hydrated prior to packaging, the ultimate consumer only needs to briefly heat the starchy food product in, for example, a conventional or microwave oven prior to consumption.

Title: Flow control valve
Inventor: PIKE DON
IPC: E21B23/08
Filed: 2005-01-11
Abstract: A flow control valve is disclosed for controlling the rotation of a hydraulic motor, such as a turbine, a mud motor, for example, having an element that rotates in response to power fluid. The valve disclosed may include a valve housing and a valve piston, each having a port, moveable relative to one another. When the ports at least partially align, bypass flow is generated which acts to decrease the speed of rotation of the element, such as a turbine shaft. An energizer, such as a pump assembly, is further described which is adapted to move the valve housing or the valve piston in response to the speed of rotation, such that bypass flow is a function of the motor speed (i.e. speed of rotation of the element). A bottom hole assembly including a flow control valve and a method of controlling the rotation of a downhole tool are also described.

Patent CA-2498794-A1 (CA)
Title: Method of fabricating fuel cells and membrane electrode assemblies
Inventor: CZYZEWSKA EVA K
IPC: H01M8/24
Filed: 2003-09-08
Abstract: The application relates to a method of fabricating micro fuel cells and membrane electrode assemblies by thin film deposition techniques using a dimensionally stable proton exchange membrane as a substrate. The application also relates to membrane electrode assemblies and fuel cells fabricated in accordance with the method. The method includes the steps of successively depositing catalyst, current collector and flow management layers on the membrane substrate in predetermined pat~terns. Since the fuel cell is formed layer by layer, the need for assem~bly and sealing of discrete components is avoided. The method im~proves the contact resistance between the current collectors and catalyst layers and reduce ohmic losses, thereby avoiding the need for end plates or other compressive elements. This in turn reduces the overall thick~ness of the manufactured fuel cell. Since the fuel cell layers are option~ally flexible, the devices may be fabricated using a continuous roller process or other automated means. The method minimizes production costs and costs of non-essential materials and is particularly suitable for low power battery replacement applications.
