Abstract: A face shield of a face mask has two or more openings for attachment of air filters (e.g., COVID-19, T70 or T90 air filters). The two or more openings face towards the ground being substantially perpendicular to the nose and the lip of the face. A nose bridge attaches to a support fame and having a span from a first side of the nose over a top and to a second side of the nose. The nose bridge and connected portions of the support frame fully expose a front facing portion of the nose of the face.

Abstract: A method for producing an edible composite of gas hydrate and ice is provided, the method comprising the steps of contacting an aqueous solution with carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide at a sufficiently high pressure to form a gas hydrate, but at a temperature preventing this; and then reducing the temperature of the solution to form the gas hydrate and ice; characterized in that the aqueous solution contains from 0.0001 to 2 wt % of an ice structuring protein. Frozen confections containing gas hydrates and methods for producing them are also provided.

Abstract: A granulated phosphate composition that provides sufficient nutritional value as well as enhanced pelleting benefits, such as abrasiveness and lubricity, compared to other granulated phosphate feed products. The granulated phosphate composition includes a phosphate source, such as monocalcium phosphate, mono-dicalcium phosphate, or dicalcium phosphate, and one or more additives such as lubricity and abrasivity additives. The lubricity additive can include a sodium additive that lubricates the die during a feed milling or pelleting process. The abrasivity additive can include silica or sand that scours the die during the pelleting process. The increased lubricity and abrasivity attributes of the composition benefits die throughput and efficiency in the pelleting process, without compromising nutritional value in the final feed product.

Abstract: An attachable weight assembly having separable sections for attachment to a pole used in exercising. The weight assembly includes a elongated main body having a first end and a second end and a bore running through the first end, second end and elongated main body. The bore is sized to fit over a shaft. The first and second ends each have a storage area for secure storage of a molded weight. The elongated main body is separable into at least two main body sections. The main body sections are attached together using an attachment mechanism. A user attaches the weight assembly to the shaft for use during exercise.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the induction of autophagy via mTOR independent pathways which modulated intracytosolic cAMP levels. In some embodiments, autophagy may be induced in a cell by reducing intracytosolic cAMP levels, for example using a cAMP antagonist, such as clonidine. This may be useful, for example in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders or pathogen infections.

Abstract: Water continuous, pourable compositions comprising more than 50 to 80 wt % fat, an emulsifier having a hydrophilic/lipophilic balance value of at least 7, an antispattering composition and optionally a biopolymer in an amount of at most at most 0.3 wt % on total composition weight are suitable frying compositions.

Abstract: Firm food products that are suitable for cold use as a spreadable product and for hot use as a frying medium, can be obtained if the products comprise 20 to 80 wt % fat, whereby the fat is present as a clumped fat network. A hydrophilic emulsifier is also present. These products do not show severe spattering when used as a frying medium and are preferably high temperature ambient stable (at temperatures greater than or equal to 25° C.).
