20090092551	Increasing lifespan by modulation of pha-4 - The roles of the pha-4 and daf-16 genes in diet-restricted induced longevity are described and characterized. Pha-4 acts, e.g., in the absence of daf-16, to increase lifespan, e.g., in nematodes. Given the role that pha-4 and daf-16 play in the mediation of longevity, they represent targets for modulation of life span. Methods of increasing life span and delaying age onset diseases by modulation of pha-4 activity are disclosed, as are screening methods for identifying compounds that modulate pha-4 and/or daf-16 activity. In addition, recombinant animals expressing the pha-4 gene and not the daf-16 gene, and methods of using the pha-4 and/or daf-16 genes to modulate longevity and age-onset diseases are described.	04-09-2009

20090053342	PREPARATION OF MICROBIAL OIL - The present invention provides a process for the production of a microbial oil comprising culturing a micro-organism in a two stage fermentation process where, in a last stage that precedes the end of fermentation, the carbon source is: consumed by the micro-organisms at a rate greater than it is added to the medium; added at a rate #0.30 M carbon/kg medium; or is rate limiting on the growth of the micro-organism. The micro-organisms thus have the carbon source restricted so that they preferentially metabolise fats or lipids other than arachidonic acid (ARA), so increasing the proportion of ARA in the cells. A microbial oil is then recovered from the micro-organism, using hexane as a solvent, that has at least 50% ARA and at least 90% triglycerides.	02-26-2009
20090105342	PUFA SUPPLEMENTS - Edible formulations, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as pharmaceutical compositions or nutritional supplements, are disclosed comprising arachidonic acid (ARA). They are adapted to deliver from 150 mg to 1 g per day of ARA and may contain other PUFAs, for example docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The DHA dosage is from 400 to 600 mg per day, and the ratio of ARA:DHA may be from 1:5 to 5:1. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising ARA and DHA at a ratio of ARA:DHA of 1:1 to 1:2 are also disclosed, as are foodstuffs comprising 0.1 to 5% ARA. Such formulations can be used to increase ARA levels in vivo, for example in pregnant women or for people who have diseases or conditions associated with low ARA levels.	04-23-2009

20110091599	METHOD FOR PREPARING NOODLES DOUGH WITH OXIDASE - The present invention relates to a method for preparing dough. Particularly the invention relates to a method for producing dough that can be processed via sheeting (i.e. a sheetable dough). Even more particular, the invention relates to a method for manufacturing sheetable dough with a water addition level which level would normally result in a dough which can not be processed because it is too sticky. The present invention provides a method for preparing sheetable dough comprising adding an amount of water and an effective amount of oxidase to flour and wherein said amount of water in the absence of said oxidase results in a dough that can not be processed due to its stickiness.	04-21-2011
20110129569	METHOD TO PRODUCE FRIED VEGETABLE PRODUCTS - The invention relates to a method for the preparation of fried vegetable products. In particular, it relates to a method for the preparation of fried vegetable products which have been subjected to an asparagine-reducing enzyme. The method comprises reducing the amount of enzyme product formed on the surface of the enzyme-treated vegetable material due to the action of the asparagine-reducing enzyme. If the amount of enzyme product is reduced before frying, this will contribute to the colour and the quality of the frying oil and of products subsequently fried in the oil and, thus, will minimize the loss of quality of the frying oil. The invention also relates to use of an asparagine-reducing enzyme preparation for preserving the colour of the frying oil.	06-02-2011
20110236534	NOVEL FOOD PRODUCTION PROCESS - Process for the production of a food or feed product, comprising adding an enzyme to the surface of an intermediate form of the food or feed product, and subsequently applying at least one heating step, whereby the enzyme is capable of modifying amino acids present in the intermediate form of the food or feed product. The invention also relates to food or feed products obtained by the process of the invention.	09-29-2011
