Patent number: 12550913Abstract: Provided herein are methods for producing a mung bean protein isolate having high functionality for a broad range of food applications. In some embodiments, the methods for producing the isolate comprise one or more steps selected from: (a) extracting one or more mung bean proteins from a mung bean protein source in an aqueous solution, for example, at a pH between about 6.5-10.0; (b) purifying protein from the extract using at least one of two methods: (i) precipitating protein from the extract at a pH near the isoelectric point of a globulin-rich fraction, for example a pH between about 5.0-6.0; and/or (ii) fractionating and concentrating protein from the extract using filtration such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration or ion-exchange chromatography; and (c) recovering purified protein isolate.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2023Date of Patent: February 17, 2026Assignee: Eat JUST, Inc.Inventors: Ritu Bansal-Mutalik, Siddharth Bhide, Brenna Gibson, Camilla Hall, Malgorzata Jakubasch, Jake Kleiner, Viviane Lanquar, Swetha Mahadevan, Trevor Niekowal, Jade Proulx, Ben Roche, Meng Xu, James Flatt, Nathaniel Park

Patent number: 11890342Abstract: A stimulus-responsive micellar carrier, methods that may be associated with making a stimulus-responsive micellar carrier, and methods that may be associated with using a stimulus-responsive micellar carrier are disclosed. The stimulus-responsive micellar carrier comprises a cargo molecule, and a linear block copolymer having a hydrophilic block connected to a hydrophobic block by a stimulus-responsive junction moiety. The micellar carrier can be supplied to a patient body for therapeutic purposes, such as the treatment of cancerous tissue. A method of preparing or obtaining a stimulus-responsive micellar carrier may include preparing a polyethylene glycol material having an acetal end group and then preparing a block copolymer by forming a reaction mixture including the polyethylene glycol material, a cyclic carbonate monomer, and a base.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2020Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Dylan J. Boday, Jeannette M. Garcia, James L. Hedrick, Nathaniel Park, Rudy J. Wojtecki, Yang Chuan, Ashlynn Lee, Zhen Chang Liang, Shaoqiong Liu, Yi Yan Yang
