Publication number: 20140249405Abstract: Hardware and software methodology are described including a synthesized User Interface (UI) to provide guidance for injection and other procedures under medical imaging. The UI provides a practitioner the option of viewing multiple images concurrent with a live image. A guidance image corresponds to correct probe placement for a selected procedure, a reference image corresponds to an expected view with such probe placement in the live image. The reference image may be variously labeled. Another option involves probe tracking to update the guidance and/or reference image view(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2013Publication date: September 4, 2014Applicant: IGIS INC.Inventor: John Savage WIMER

Patent number: 4879228Abstract: A water-soluble levan having a weight average molecular weight of about 10,0000-40 million, preferably about 5-25 million and especially about 10-20 million which stabilizes a bovine serum albumin colloid having index (EAI) of about 3-100 determined according to the formula EAI=2T/OC wherein T is turbidity measured at 500 nm, C is the weight of emulsified protein per unit volume of the aqueous phase, and O is the volume fraction of a dispersed oil phase is produced by fermenting a nutrient growth medium feedstock having a carbon source consisting essentially of an assimilable sugar selected from the group consisting of sucrose, raffinose, or a mixture thereof with a Zymomonas mobilis microorganism capable of converting at least 50% of the fructose value of the sugar to said levan under nutrient growth conditions which enhance levan production while suppressing ethanol production. It is useful as a colloid stabilizing agent, particularly with foods, beverages pharmaceuticals, dentrifices, and cosmetics.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 1985Date of Patent: November 7, 1989Assignee: IGI Biotechnology, Inc.Inventors: Thomas D.

Patent number: 4547226Abstract: The sugar content of citrus press liquor is enhanced by separating citrus solids, extracting fructose, glucose, and sucrose from the solids, and recombining the aqueous extract to increase the sugar content thereof. By inversion of the sucrose present in the sugar-enhanced press liquor, a high fructose syrup can be readily obtained which is indistinguishable from high fructose corn syrup. When separation is effected by centrifugation, a biocidally active colloidal phase is formed from which citrus terpenes and limonene can be extracted, resulting in a press liquor suitable for fermentation. The solid residue remaining after extraction can also be recycled with the remaining press cake.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 1983Date of Patent: October 15, 1985Assignee: IGI Biotechnology, Inc.Inventors: Robert A. Milch, Patricia Guerry-Kopecko, Carol Koeble-Smith, Edward M. Sybert

By inversion of the sucrose present in the sugar-enhanced press liquor, a high fructose syrup can be readily obtained which appears indistinguishable from high fructose corn syrup. When separation is effected by centrifugation, a colloidal phase is formed from which limonene and biocidal flavanoids can be extracted, resulting in a press liquor suitable for fermentation to alcohol. The solid residue remaining after extraction can also be recycled with the remaining press cake.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 1982Date of Patent: December 18, 1984Assignee: IGI Biotechnology, Inc.Inventors: Robert A.
