  • Publication number: 20250366652
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a beverage apparatus using a capsule. In the beverage apparatus of the present invention, an extraction part (30) may be located spaced apart from the upper part of a base (10). The base (10) has a water supply part. The extraction part (30) may have a space in which a capsule (1) sits, and be configured to extract a beverage from the capsule (1). The extraction part (30) can be lifted up and down with respect to the base (10). The extraction part (30) can be supported on the base (10) by support legs (20). A display (16) is provided on the upper surface of the base (10) and can display the operation status of the beverage apparatus.

  • Patent number: 11896715
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an in-vivo bulking agent which can be used as a medicinal agent for prevention or treatment of at least one disease selected from the group consisting of urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, and gastroesophageal reflux or as a filler for use in a plastic surgery procedure, and to a preparation method therefor. The in-vivo bulking agent can exhibit a bulking effect when injected into the body and particularly, is highly biocompatible because a first composition in which silicone particles are coated with a zwitterionic polymer having a surfactant property is introduced into a second composition, whereby the bulking agent can inhibit inflammatory reactions in vivo.

  • Patent number: 7018820
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of removing residual enzymes when microencapsulating enzymes, and more particularly, for inactivating enzymes remaining in an uncapsulated form during microencapsulation of enzymes by treating dispersion fluid of microcapsules containing enzymes with ozone, together with removal of microorganisms harmful to human beings, where the ozone treatment is conducted for 1–10 min with 1–10 ppm of ozone generated from a UV lamp in a range from 150 to 200 nm wavelength.
