  • Patent number: 6316035
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to develop an agent to keep proper moisture, improve the mouth-feeling and preserve freshness of cells and protein-containing-materials which does not cause any side-effect. This object can be accomplished by contacting cells or protein-containing materials with an organic acid fermentation liquid which has been adjusted to pH6-10 by adding a carbonate.

  • Patent number: 6159504
    Abstract: It is an object of the invention to provide core substance-containing calcium microparticles and methods for producing them.As means to solve the above problem, an edible oil, a calcium shell-forming material and water are agitated at a high rate to thereby form an o/w emulsion and, at the same time, allow electrostatic adsorption of calcium microparticles on the surface of oil droplets in the emulsion; the calcium microparticles adsorbed on the oil droplets are solidified to allow formation of calcium shells; the resultant edible-oil-containing calcium shells are separated; the edible oil is replaced with a solvent; the solvent is removed by volatilization to thereby obtain porous, hollow calcium shells; a core substance is introduced into the porous, hollow calcium shells; and, if necessary, the resultant core substance-containing calcium microparticles are coated with a biopolymer.
