Abstract: A steviol glycoside composition having modified sensory attributes including reduced sweetness linger and/or increased sweetness intensity. The steviol glycoside composition comprises a steviol glycoside and a sensory modifier compound in an amount effective to modify the sensory attributes of the steviol glycoside.

Abstract: This disclosure sets forth bubble modifiers capable of reducing mean bubble diameter of a gasified aqueous solution, e.g., a carbonated beverage. The bubble modifier may include one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of monocaffeoylquinic acids, dicaffeoylquinic acids, monoferuloylquinic acids, diferuloylquinic acids, monocoumaroylquinic acids, dicoumaroylquinic acids, and salts thereof. The bubble modifier desirably comprises less than 0.3% (wt) of malonate, malonic acid, oxalate, oxalic acid, lactate, lactic acid, succinate, succinic acid, malate, or malic acid; or less than 0.05% (wt) of pyruvate, pyruvic acid, fumarate, fumaric acid, tartrate, tartaric acid, sorbate, sorbic acid, acetate, or acetic acid; or less than about 0.05% (wt) of chlorophyll; or less than about 0.1% (wt) of furans, furan-containing chemicals, theobromine, theophylline, or trigonelline.

Abstract: An amplifier is described which includes a first loop including a first amplifier stage having an offset voltage associated therewith. An output stage includes two switching devices in a bridge configuration configured to be coupled between a supply voltage and ground. An output of the bridge configuration is configured to be coupled to a load. The first loop is characterized by a first gain. A decoupling capacitor is configured to be coupled to the load. A second loop which includes the first amplifier stage is configured to charge the decoupling capacitor to a first voltage generated with reference to the offset voltage before operation of the switching devices is enabled. The second loop is characterized by a second gain. The first and second gains are substantially the same such that when operation of the switching devices is enabled a second voltage at the output of the half-bridge configuration is substantially the same as the first voltage.
