Abstract: A method of extracting lipids or fats from previously oil fried foodstuffs includes the placement of at least partially cooked foodstuffs (10) on a base surface (14) and impinging such with heated air. The heated air is non-recirculating and is exhausted through an exhaust system (20) to an external environment. The non-recirculating air contacting the foodstuff (10) is maintained substantially moisture-free and is at a predetermined temperature within the approximate range of 350.0.degree. F. to 450.0.degree. F. By maintaining the heated air above the boiling point of lipids contained within and on the surface of the foodstuff (10), excess fats and lipids are vaporized by impingment of the substantially moisture-free heated air.

Abstract: A method of detecting and quantitating cell malignancy in biological tissue is provided and initially includes preparing a tissue sample having a substantially constant thickness. The tissue sample was impinged by filtered electromagnetic energy within an approximate bandwidth between 255.0-265.0 nm with a preferred wavelength of 260.0 nm. A standard Zeiss microscope was used to observe and measure the nuclear material with the microscope being fitted with quartz optics. The volume of nuclear material being examined was maintained relatively constant by selecting an aperture smaller in diameter than the magnified image of the nucleus being examined in combination with the subtantially uniform thickness of the tissue samples. The electromagnetic energy subsequent to being reflected from the tissue sample was passed through a second optical filter having an approximate filtering capacity in the range of 260.0 nm.

Abstract: A nutrient compound formed of a plurality of elements having predetermined weight ratio percentages each to the other. The nutrient compound is synthesized in accordance with the particular elements being found in the Earth's crust. The elements utilized in the nutrient compound include Scandium, Titanium, Vanadium, Chromium, Manganese, Iron, Cobalt, Nickel, Copper, and Zinc, which correspond to the upper elements in Groups IIIB, IVB, VB, VIB, VIIB, VIII, IB, and IIB of the Periodic Table. The nutrient compound utilizes the elements in the same approximate weight ratio found in the Earth's crust. The elements displace lower elements in each of the Groups of the Periodic Table within organic life forms in order to achieve a bio-chemical ratio more in concert with the manner in which such organic life has evolved.

Abstract: An exhaust gas pollution control system (10) for purification of exhaust gases passing from a combustion chamber. The control system (10) includes a housing element (14) which extends in a longitudinal direction (12). The housing element (14) encompasses a plurality of exhaust gas purification elements (16) each of the elements (16) being discrete in nature. Each of the exhaust gas purification elements (16) form a generally donut shaped contour having a central passageway (32) and are formed in an open contour for introduction of the exhaust gases internal to the particular purification element (16). The exhaust gases enter each purification element (16) through an entrance passageway (44) and are accelerated therein. Particulate matter found in the exhaust gases are ejected through particulate openings (54). The exhaust gases are catalytically converted within internal chamber (40) of purification element (16) and then are reintroduced to central passageway (32) through gaseous ejection openings (58).

Abstract: An edible food container (10) and mold (22) for making the same. The edible food container (10) is cylindrically contoured and extends in a longitudinal direction having a cylindrical food cavity formed therein. An end section (16) of edible food container (10) is closed to provide an overall cup-shaped contour. A food (12) may be inserted within the food cavity (14) and the food (12) and edible food container (10) may be consumed as a unitary combination. The food (12) is captured within the edible food container (10) and provides for a minimization of leakage and spillage during the ingestion process.
