Publication number: 20220064232Abstract: There is a method of separating phosvitin and HDL proteins from an egg yolk composition. The egg yolk composition includes HDL proteins bound to phosvitin. At least a portion of the HDL proteins are hydrolysed to cause the HDL proteins and phosvitin to become unbound and forming a hydrolysed solution comprising hydrolysed HDL, phosvitin and peptides. The hydrolysed HDL is separated from the phosvitin and peptides to form a separated hydrolysed HDL composition and a separated phosvitin and peptide solution. One resulting product is an egg yolk composition formed having at least 20% solids by mass of phosvitin phosphopeptides unbound from HDL. Another resulting product is an egg yolk composition having at least 80% hydrolysed HDL-derived lipopeptide solids by mass.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2019Publication date: March 3, 2022Applicant: Ecovatec Solutions Inc.Inventors: William PERRIN, Christopher NICHOLS, TEN HAAF Harry, Glenn NICHOLS

Publication number: 20220046947Abstract: There is a method of producing a hydrolysed egg yolk plasma product from egg yolk elements. The egg yolk elements include phospholipids and proteins. The method comprises introducing a hydrolysing agent into the egg yolk elements to hydrolyse at least a portion of the proteins in the egg yolk elements to form the hydrolysed egg yolk plasma product. There also is a composition formed using the method above. There is also an egg yolk composition formed from egg yolk, comprising at least 15% phospholipids solids by dry mass, at least 20% protein by dry mass, the protein being at least partially hydrolysed into peptides and at least 40% lipids other than phospholipids by dry mass.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2019Publication date: February 17, 2022Applicant: ECOVATEC SOLUTIONS INC.Inventors: William PERRIN, Christopher NICHOLS, Harry TEN HAAF, Glenn NICHOLS

Publication number: 20140236631Abstract: A method and apparatus for identifying overdue patients using standard billing or other office management data, so that patients can be contacted and invited to make an appointment. The invention begins by querying the diagnosis codes for each visit from the billing or other encounter tables, and matching these with a set of target medical conditions requiring regular care. Procedure codes and encounter dates for past visits are queried for these patients, to determine when each patient was last seen, and what was done. These procedure codes are matched against a set of exam codes to determine last medical examination dates, and against a set of procedures known to resolve each medical condition. Each condition requiring regular care is matched against any resolving procedures, leaving a set of untreated conditions requiring regular care. Based on the date of the last exam or treatment and accepted standards of care or office policies, a due date is calculated for each patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 2014Publication date: August 21, 2014Inventors: BRIAN WILLIAM PERRIN, BRETT CORNELL GERLACH

Patent number: 8458001Abstract: A management database is queried to determine which customers have failed to respond to recall notices. The resulting list of customers may be sorted or filtered so that some customers are preferentially contacted first, based on expected value or office preferences. The list may also be sorted or filtered to fill specific providers' schedules first. Customer names and contact information are then presented to schedulers so that customers may be contacted. The time and date of each contact is automatically recorded along with the outcome of the contact. A customer name is presented to a scheduler only if the same name is not being simultaneously presented to other schedulers and that customer was not too recently contacted, so that redundant or too frequent contacts are avoided.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2012Date of Patent: June 4, 2013Assignee: Brevium, Inc.Inventors: Brett Cornell Gerlach, Brian William Perrin

Patent number: 8208619Abstract: A method and apparatus for improving call yields and reducing redundant calls while contacting patients who have not responded to reminders to schedule a return appointment, or who are due for a visit according to accepted standards of care or office policies, but have not scheduled an appointment. The patient reactivation system is queried for the next patient on the contact list, and queried again to find all patients sharing one or more phone numbers with this patient. Information required for contacting these patients to invite them to make an appointment is displayed. The user is presented one phone number at a time, and prompted to call this number and invite all listed patients to make an appointment. Results are collected, and when multiple patients are displayed, the program may prompt the user for clarification regarding which patients a given result applies to.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2007Date of Patent: June 26, 2012Assignee: Brevium, Inc.Inventors: Brian William Perrin, Brett Cornell Gerlach

Patent number: 5447057Abstract: A template for taking erosion/corrosion measurements of a piping system for logging a history of the piping system over time using a method which comprises the steps of: (a) Wrapping a template about the pipe component; (b) Aligning the template with a reference marking on the pipe component; (c) Taking a wall thickness measurement at each of the spaced holes; (d) Recording at least the wall thickness measurement at each of the spaced holes and the indicia of the spaced hole location. The template extends circumferentially about the pipe component and has a plurality of spaced holes arranged in a grid pattern which holes extend through the template for receiving a probe for measuring wall thickness of the pipe component. The template has indicia for identifying each of the spaced holes.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 1994Date of Patent: September 5, 1995Inventors: Larry J. Shaw, William Perrin

Patent number: 4042124Abstract: In a pan unstacking and stacking system, stacks of pans are vertically positioned by pairs of spaced, parallel lift chains and pan engaging members mounted thereon. The lift chains are driven by drive shafts and drive sprockets which engage the upper and lower courses of a drive chain, respectively, thereby permitting adjustment of the spacing between the pan engaging members to accommodate pans of various sizes. The drive chain is in turn driven by a fluid powered cylinder operating through a clutch and brake apparatus to control the vertical positioning of the pan engaging members and pan stacks mounted thereon. Pans are transferred laterally relative to pan stacks supported on the pan engaging members by means of magnets positioned along a line in a horizontal plane situated above a stack and V-belts mounted for rotation around parallel courses situated on opposite sides of the line of magnets and including horizontal portions extending coincident therewith.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 1975Date of Patent: August 16, 1977Assignee: Stewart Engineering & Equipment Co.Inventors: William Perrin Bowdry, III, Irwin Edward Wickam
