Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to an enteral feeding device for hydrolyzing triglycerides in a nutritional formula. The device may include a body housing a chamber, an inlet configured to fluidly couple with a source of nutritional formula, and an outlet configured to fluidly couple with an enteral feeding tube. The device may include a headspace and a plurality of particles contained within the chamber, wherein the lipase is covalently bonded to the plurality of particles. The device may include an inlet filter located between the inlet and the chamber, wherein the inlet filter contains a first plurality of openings, and an outlet filter located between the chamber and the outlet, wherein the outlet filter has a second plurality of openings smaller than the plurality of particles.

Abstract: A multi-actuator hard disk drive includes a lower actuator with a corresponding voice coil motor assembly (VCMA), a coaxial upper actuator with a corresponding VCMA, and a central support plate positioned between the upper and lower VCMAs and to which the upper VCMA is fastened. Use of a central support plate enables some control over the direct and coupled plant transfer functions, while effectively providing a base support structure for the upper VCMA and enabling use of conventionally-sized fasteners.

Abstract: An engine or engine casing having an inner annular case and an outer annular case. The engine casing is formed using an additive manufacturing technique such that the inner annular case and outer annular case is formed surrounding a hollow inner annular cavity. The annular cavity includes a pin bank connecting the inner annular case and outer annular case. The pin bank improves heat transfer between the inner and outer annular case and provide structural support to the inner and outer annular case. By providing fluid flow through the annular cavity, the turbine casing can be cooled and the radius of the casing can be controlled through the regulation of fluid travelling within the annular cavity. By controlling the fluid flow though the annular cavity, the engine case may be cooled to regulate its temperature in a wide variety of operating conditions.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for the fermentation of bile which includes the step of cultivating one or more aerobic microorganisms which have the ability to selectively degrate bile acids or bile acid conjugates contained in bile. The fermentation is carried out in a cultivation medium containing or consisting of unfractionated bile under aerobic conditions to prepare a compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein .about. is a bond chosen from one which is alpha or beta to the ring, X is chosen from hydrogen, hydroxyl or oxo, may be either a double or single bond, and R is selected from oxo, hydroxy or a propionic acid residue, attached at the 2-position ##STR2## The invention also includes within its scope certain compounds as described herein prepared by the process of the invention.
