IPC: A23L29/269
Filed: 2005-06-20
Abstract: Mutational inactivation of proteins involved in para-cresol production in certain milk products results in improved taste and odor. The undesirable para-cresol forms over time as a result of enzymes produced by the bacterium that produces gellan gum. Since the gellan is typically used in a relatively unpurified form, the enzymes are added to the milk along with the gellan.  Inactivation of the enzymes is a genetic means of eliminating the enzymes without requiring any additional purification or processing.

Title: Communicating with an implanted wireless sensor
Inventor: PYLE WILTON
IPC: H03L7/00
Filed: 2005-10-04
Abstract: The present invention determines the resonant frequency of a sensor (120) by adjusting the phase and frequency of an energizing signal until the frequency of the energizing signal matches the resonant frequency of the sensor (120).  The system energizes the sensor (120) with a low duty cycle, gated burst of RF  energy having a predetermined frequency or set of frequencies and a predetermined amplitude. The energizing signal is coupled to the sensor (120) via magnetic coupling and induces a current in the sensor (120), which oscillates at the resonant frequency of the sensor (120). The system receives the ring down response of the sensor (120) via magnetic coupling and determines the resonant frequency of the sensor (120), which is used to calculate the measured physical parameter. The system uses a pair of phase locked loops to adjust the phase and the frequency of the energizing signal.
