  • Publication number: 20130129882
    Abstract: A process for enhancing polyphenolics content of beverages brewed from polyphenolic containing, processed beverage substrate by pre-soaking substrate (coffee beans, for example) before roasting and then quenching the substrate after processing with the liquid in which the substrate was first “pre-soaked.” Beverages produced from the treated substrate exhibit substantially increased polyphenolics content, when compared to conventionally processed beverage substrate of the same nature and processing.

  • Patent number: 4914022
    Abstract: A flexible, efficient and rapid method is shown whereby many different tissues samples may be stained or reacted and examined simultaneously, on one standard glass slide. This method is based on the preparation of "cores" of paraffin embedded tissue from standard sources of tissue such as histology blocks. The paraffin embedded tissue cores are inserted into a casing cut from an ordinary drinking straw, or similar holding device, mounted in a paraffin block and sectioned.
