  • Publication number: 20220322693
    Abstract: Compositions and methods that relate to improved chocolate milk are provided. The chocolate milk may be shelf stable and k-carrageenan free. The chocolate milk does not undergo visually detectable phase separation for at least 7 days. The chocolate milk that does not undergo the visually detectable phase separation contains from 1%-10% micellar casein w/v. Methods for preparing shelf stable k-carrageenan free chocolate milk are also provided and include mixing cocoa powder, sugar, milk, and micellar casein to obtain a mixture, and optionally heating and homogenizing the mixture, and subsequently subjecting the mixture to High Pressure Jet Processing (HPJ) or high pressure homogenization of at least 300 MPa, thereby producing the shelf table k-carrageenan free chocolate milk. The shelf stable k-carrageenan free chocolate milk of produced using such a method may be refrigerated temperature for at least 14 days, and does not undergo detectable phase separation for at least 14 days.

  • Patent number: 10682493
    Abstract: A device and its method of use eliminates or reduces the gap between a catheter and guide wire that can otherwise contribute to a catheter getting stuck within the vasculature. The device is maintained at or near the distal end of the catheter while being advanced through the vessels of a patient. The reduced gap size prevents the catheter from otherwise “catching” on various structures of a vessel, such as a bifurcation.
