  • Patent number: 8168585
    Abstract: The invention relates to the purification of peptides from colostrum. The method involves the addition of an alcohol such as methanol or ethanol to the mixture in order to form an alcohol phase rich in the peptides, and a precipitate. The peptide-rich alcohol phase is subsequently recovered and subjected to further fractionation. The invention is particularly useful in the purification of colostrinin from colostrum.

  • Patent number: 5925318
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to iron sensors. Immobilized in close proximity of the potential or pH measuring surface of a proton sensing device, minute quantities of an iron chelator such as siderophores or transferring cause detectable variation of the potential or pH upon the binding of iron. The sensing devices for measuring this change in potential or pH include the iron chelator-modified ion-selective field effect transistors (IC-ISFET) and/or pH indicator papers of the present invention.

  • Patent number: 5516697
    Abstract: A simple, cost effective assay of iron is accomplished by using lactoferrin as part of a biosensor to detect iron in a sample. The lactoferrin releases protons when the iron is sequestered by the lactoferrin and the change in potential caused by the release of protons is measured by a potentiometer or pH sensing device. The sensing devices include the ion-selective or ion sensitive field effect transistors (ISFET), a potentiometric device or the pH indicator papers.
