Patents by Inventor Adam Barrilleaux

Adam Barrilleaux has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Methods and constructs for producing transgenic plants and methods of recovering expressed proteins
    Patent number: 8252552
    Abstract: This invention relates to a regulatory element useful for genetically engineering sugarcane or other monocots, to the transformation of the monocots with the regulatory element so that they produce a desired product, and to the regeneration of the monocots transformed with the regulatory element. In particular the present invention provides a nucleic acid encoding the promoter of a sugarcane proline rich protein as shown in Seq ID #3.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 9, 2006
    Date of Patent: August 28, 2012
    Assignee: The Texas A&M University System
    Inventors: T. Erik Mirkov, Jean P. Monclin, Adam Barrilleaux, James E. Irvine, Francis Moonan
  • Method and apparatus for fractional separation of proteins from plant material
    Publication number: 20020187206
    Abstract: A method of extracting and purifying recombinant protein(s) from transgenic plant matter is disclosed. Fractioning of juice that has been extracted from the plant matter is obtained by using a multiple stage filtering process that uses multiple stages of decreasing porosity (preferably screening) followed by preferably membrane type filters, ion exchange, membrane adsorber, and chromatographic processes.
    Type: Application
    Filed: April 11, 2001
    Publication date: December 12, 2002

  • Sugarcane fractioning system
    Patent number: 6479636
    Abstract: A method of extracting and purifying recombinant protein(s) from transgenic sugarcane is disclosed. Fractioning of sugarcane juice that has been extracted from the cane stalks is obtained by using a multiple stage filtering process that uses multiple stages of decreasing porosity (preferably screening) followed by preferably membrane type filters, ion exchange, membrane adsorber, and chromatographic processes.
