摘要:
A process for fractionating the constituents of a solution obtained by extracting plant or animal material with an aqueous-organic solvent where the aqueous-organic solvent is a mixture of water and a water-miscible organic solvent, generally including the steps of contacting the solution with a near-critical fluid to produce a raffinate phase containing high polarity constituents and water, and a near-critical fluid phase containing low to medium polarity constituents, separating the near-critical fluid phase from the raffinate phase, and recovering the low to medium polarity constituents from the near-critical fluid phase and the high polarity constituents from the raffinate phase.
摘要:
A process for extracting a wide range of lipophilic compounds from urea-containing solutions is described. The process utilises a near-critical fluid as the extraction solvent. The process is particularly applicable to the extraction of polyunsaturated fatty acids from the filtrate obtained upon urea fractionation, as employed in the processing of fish and other oils. In contrast to known processes, the lipophilic compounds may be extracted without the use of non-food grade solvents, and are suitable for pharmaceutical and cosmetic use.
摘要:
Processes for producing dairy products having lower levels of neutral lipids, and/or higher levels of polar lipids, by extraction using near critical carbon dioxide or dimethyl ether. These products may be used as ingredients in infant formulas. Infant formulas containing beta-serum are also claimed. “Beta-serum” means an aqueous dairy ingredient separated from dairy streams containing greater than 60% fat which have been through phase inversion from an oil-in- water to a water-in-oil emulsion, such as the serum produced during the production of butter oil.
摘要:
A drive transmission assembly for transmitting motive drive between a reciprocating drive member (11) and a driven member (16) in order to move the driven member (16) between first and second limits of reciprocal movement, the assembly including a drive transmission member (20) adapted for connection to the drive member (11) and the driven member (16) in order to transmit said motive drive, a fixed stop member (22) arranged to be located within the path of reciprocal travel of said transmission member (20), the transmission member (20) including a stop (25) for abutment with said stop member (22) in order to define said first or second limit of reciprocal movement for the driven member (16), said transmisson member (20) being adapted to define a vibration isolating connection between said stop (25) and said drive member (11), whilst said stop (25) is in abutment with said stop member (22).

摘要:
An antenna for microwave tumor ablation provides coaxial antenna conductors surrounded by an insulated sleeve of length and size promoting destructive interference of axial microwave energy passing inside and outside of the sleeve to limit the tail of SAR power toward the skin.
