  • Dual-modulation laser line-locking for wavelength modulation spectroscopy
    Patent number: 5969825
    Abstract: An improvement to a dual-modulation line-locking device for wavelength modulation spectroscopy employing a lowpass filter to generate a nonnormalized error signal and a bandpass filter and RMS-to-DC converter to generate a centering signal. When the error signal is approximately zero and the centering signal is large, the wavelength is coincident with the center of the absorption feature of the sample.

  • Method of improving efficiency in ruminants
    Patent number: 5955122
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods of altering blood constituents in grazing animals. Serum concentrations of serum insulin, serum urea nitrogen, serum glucose, and serum growth hormone in ruminants were varied by feeding specific protein supplements and an otherwise negative energy diet. Protein supplements were selected both from high rumen-degradable proteins, such as cottonseed meal, and low rumen-degradable proteins, such as blood and feather meals. Improvement in body condition and body weight was concomitant with reduced milk production.
