Organic compounds -- part of the class 532-570 series August list RSS, inventions by patent category 08/07

20070203353 - Bipolar trans carotenoid salts and their uses: The invention relates to trans carotenoid salt compounds, methods for making them, methods for solubilizing them and uses thereof. These compounds are useful in improving diffusivity of oxygen between red blood cells and body tissues in mammals including humans.... Agent: Nixon & Vanderhye, PC

20070191619 - Production and purification of esters of conjugated linoleic acids: A process to refine esters of conjugated linoleic acids via distillation in a single or multi-pass distillation operation is provided. Thermal rearrangement of conjugated linoleic acid components during distillation is prevented or reduced by the use of a low residence time and/or reduced pressure distillation apparatus. A process to produce... Agent: Mcandrews Held & Malloy, Ltd

20070185340 - Low trans-fatty acid fats and fat compositions and methods of making same: This disclosure describes select low trans-fatty acid fats and fat compositions and methods of making such fats and fat compositions. These fats and fat compositions achieve properties commonly associated with typical partially hydrogenated fats, but avoid the high trans-fatty acid contents typically associated with such fats.... Agent: Cargill, Incorporated

20070185341 - Method and system for the esterification of fatty acids: Method and apparatus for esterification of fatty acids or fatty acids contained in fats and oils with lower monovalent alcohol having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, including combining in a reaction section the fatty acids or fatty acids contained in fats and oils, and the alcohol to form a mixture,... Agent: Greenblum & Bernstein, P.L.C

20070185342 - Process for the preparation of lutein ester concentrate: A method for concentrating trans-lutein esters from marigold oleoresin, which includes blending the oleoresin with a solvent and a co-solvent of lower alkanols and recovering a precipitate enriched with trans-lutein esters at a temperature of above 22° C. The recovery and purity of the trans-lutein esters is greater using the... Agent: Mueller And Smith, Lpa Mueller-smith Building

20070179305 - Low trans-fatty acid fat compositions; low-temperature hydrogenation, e.g., of edible oils: The present disclosure provides low trans-fatty acid fat compositions, methods of hydrogenating unsaturated feed-stocks (e.g., oils), and hydrogenation catalyst compositions. One exemplary method involves producing a catalyst composition by heating a nickel-based catalyst to a first temperature of at least about 85° C. in the presence of hydrogen and a... Agent: Cargill, Incorporated

20070179306 - Process for the preparation of lutein ester concentrate: A method for concentrating trans-xanthophyll esters from marigold oleoresin, which includes blending the oleoresin with a solvent and a co-solvent of lower alkanols and recovering a precipitate enriched with trans-xanthophyll esters at a temperature of above 22° C. The recovery and purity of the trans-xanthophyll esters is greater when using... Agent: Mueller And Smith, Lpa Mueller-smith Building

20070179307 - Process for co-producing olefins and diesters or diacids starting from unsaturated fats: Of particular application to an oleic sunflower oil, an oleic rapeseed oil or to a mixture of mono-alcohol esters of said oils, whereupon the process can produce both an olefinic fraction (mainly composed of 1-decene) and a composition of diesters or diacids wherein, in general, over half of the chains...
