IPC: A23K1/16
Filed: 2003-07-29
Abstract: Selon une réalisation, cette invention porte sur un procédé de production d'un produit sans protéine comprenant trois amino-acides et des peptides courts. Selon ce procédé, on broie les matières brutes protéiniques et on les hydrolyse avec des enzymes endogènes, puis on les soumet à différents processus de séparation, y compris la coagulation des restes de protéines, de façon à obtenir le produit désiré. L'invention porte également sur le produit obtenu et sur ses utilisations. Selon une seconde réalisation, on produit un produit protéinique enrichi en amino-acides libres et en peptides courts, les matières brutes protéiniques étant broyées et hydrolysées avec des enzymes endogènes, et l'hydrolysat subissant ensuite divers processus de séparation. Le produit obtenu comprend des protéines, des peptides courts et longs, des amino-acides libres et des minéraux et a une faible teneur en matière grasse et en sel. Selon une troisième réalisation, on effectue l'hydrolysation d'une matière brute contenant des protéines et la séparation des amino-acides/peptides, cette hydrolysation étant effectuée au moyen d'enzymes endogènes de la matière brute contenant des protéines. On fait alors passer l'hydrolysat par un filtre membranaire, les peptides/amino-acides suivant un courant de perméat alors que les enzymes actives brisent en continu tous restes de protéines déposés sur la surface de la membrane. Puis les enzymes reviennent avec le rétentat à l'hydrolyse. D'autre part, l'invention porte sur un amino-acide, un produit peptidique et sur une huile et sur leur utilisation.

Title: System and method for single-point to fixed-multipoint data communication
Inventor: MARGON KENNETH
IPC: H04B1/69
Filed: 2004-06-16
Abstract: Systems and methods for single-point to fixed-multipoint communication. The invention dynamically allocates bandwidth based on traffic demands, thus providing efficient bandwidth utilization, particularly with bursty or time sensitive data traffic. A system includes a Base Station and a plurality of Remote Stations. The Base Station transmits information to the Remote Stations via a Forward Channel and the Remote Stations transmit information via a Reverse Channel. Before transmitting on the Reverse Channel, each of the Remote Stations listens (monitors) the Reverse Channel to ascertain whether any other Remote Station is transmitting. Remote Stations transmit data only when a Remote Station determines that the channel is clear. The Remote Stations listen in sequential order, eliminating the probability of collisions caused by simultaneous transmissions from Remote Stations. The data traffic is accordingly aggregated, thus providing efficient bandwidth utilization.
