  • Patent number: 5631347
    Abstract: A method for processing a fatty acid-acylated protein, especially N-palmitoyl Lys.sup.B29 human insulin, to reduce the incidence of gelation by conducting such processing in the presence of a citrate buffering agent as the primary buffer which method allows such processing to be conducted at higher protein concentrations and with less temperature control than would otherwise be possible in the absence of the citrate buffer.

  • Patent number: 4737273
    Abstract: A process for recovering phosphate values from silica-containing phosphate ores is provided. The ore has a particle size in the range of about 0.6 to 1.2 mm and is subjected to selective flotation in the presence of a cationic flotation reagent comprising a di(hydrophobic group) quaternary ammonium salt, wherein each of the hydrophobic groups contain 6 or more carbon atoms and at least one of the groups contains from about 10-20 carbon atoms, in combination with a hydrocarbon oil and a phosphate depressing agent.
    Type: Grant
