  • Publication number: 20230217892
    Abstract: A pet seat system, apparatus, and method for attaching to a chair. A pet sidecar apparatus is disclosed that includes a basket, a platform configured to support the basket, and one or more straps configured to attach the pet sidecar apparatus to the side of a chair. The pet sidecar apparatus provides a comfortable area for a pet to sit while at the level of the human user. The pet sidecar apparatus moves with a rollable desk chair and does not impede the motion of the desk chair while the human user is able to sit in the desk chair. The pet sidecar apparatus has an easily cleanable universal design that can fit a variety of desk chairs and is safe for both the pet and the human user.

  • Publication number: 20070166432
    Abstract: The inventors have identified amylases in fungal strains of Valsaria and found that the amylase can increase the shelf life of baked products. Particularly, the novel amylase in com-bination with a maltogenic amylase further improves the softness of bread crumb without hav-ing detrimental effects on elasticity.

  • Publication number: 20050170350
    Abstract: Methods for screening a polynucleotide library for a polypeptide with a property of interest in a filamentous fungal host cell, in a manner which allows quick and easy subsequent characterization of the polypeptide, using an expression cloning vector comprising at least a polynucleotide encoding a selectable marker in which the translation initiation start site of the marker-encoding sequence comprises a crippled consensus Kozak sequence, a fungal replication initiation sequence, and a promoter with a cloning-site into which the library is cloned, and a transcription terminator.
