| Patent application number | Title | Published |
| 20120128816 | METHOD OF PROCESSING CEREAL GRAIN WITH LACTIC ACID FOR USE IN RUMINANT FEED - A method of producing a ruminant feed includes cereal grain treated with a weak organic acid such as lactic acid, and optionally heated. The ruminant feed is suitable feed for dairy cows which may benefit from increased ruminal pH and increased milk fat production. | 05-24-2012 |
| 20110144685 | CRICOTHYROTOMY DEVICE - A device for ventilating the upper airway of a trauma victim, and in particular to a device for performing a cricothyrotomy, including a inner and an outer catheter along with internal restraint that can expand inside the air way of a patient to anchor the device in place. An external restraint firmly positions the device in place. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20110008362 | ANTI-GLUTEN EGG YOLK ANTIBODIES FOR THE TREATMENT OF CELIAC DISEASE - The present invention relates to compositions for ameliorating the symptoms of celiac disease or gluten sensitive enteropathy comprising egg yolk antibodies against gluten, including gliadin, high molecular glutenin, low molecular glutenin and mixtures of the three peptides. The antibodies may be produced by immunizing laying hens with immunogenic preparations of gluten and harvesting the eggs and egg yolks. | 01-13-2011 |
| 20100050868 | MERCURY ABSORPTION USING CHABAZITE SUPPORTED METALLIC NANODOTS - A method of adsorbing mercury includes the use of silver nanodots formed on chabazite as a sorbent. The silver nanodots may be formed on chabazite by ion-exchange followed by activation. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20090117653 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR EVALUATING THERAPEUTICS ON CANCER STEM CELLS - Embodiments provide cell culture methods to produce a 3-D model assembly that mimics in vitro the microenvironment of human bone marrow, where cells occupy distinct niches. Methods and apparatuses are provided for the efficient testing of cancer, including malignant hematopoietic cancers and metastatic spread to the bone marrow of solid tumors, and of other diseases of the blood and bone marrow. Methods and apparatuses are further provided in embodiments for the investigation of bone marrow cell biological characteristics and for the testing of therapeutics for nonmalignant diseases of the blood and bone marrow. | 05-07-2009 |
