Abstract: The present invention provides a class of iridium (III) based phosphors bearing both pincer carbene and pyrazolyl chelates. Differing from the conventional cyclometalated Ir(III) metal complexes, these novel phosphorescent Ir(III) metal complexes are synthesized from a class of pincer carbene chelate, a class of pyrazolyl-based chelate and an iridium metal source complex.

Thus, this novel phosphorescent Ir(III) metal complex is able to emit a range of visible light (particularly the blue light) with high color purity and high efficiency as neat sample. Moreover, this novel phosphorescent Ir(III) metal complex is also adapted as the guest emitter in the light emitting layer (EML) for the traditional doped OLED architecture.

Abstract: A method of improving protein functionality includes obtaining a protein such as protein contained within exclusion bodies contained within bacteria or yeast used for the recombinant expression of the protein. The exclusion bodies are solubilized using a chaotropic agent such as guanidine or urea. The protein is then subject to denaturation conditions and optionally purified. A liquid containing the denatured protein is loaded into a vessel that is angled relative to horizontal. The vessel is then rotated in the angled configuration at a rate within that is less than 10,000 RPM for period of time. Refolded protein is formed by the high shear conditions formed in the thin film of fluid formed in the inner surface of the rotating vessel. Refolding can be performed in a batch mode or a continuous mode. The process may be scaled up for industrial applications by using multiple vessels.

Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for recovering protein product powder, purified water and omega-3 oil from an animal tissue. The methods and systems use high throughput extraction filtration separation systems. Animal tissue, for example fish, and organic solvent are directly or indirectly transferred into one of the optional extraction or filtration systems. The extraction-filtration systems provide a high degree of filtration performance and product washing efficiency. Each system ultimately yields a product wet cake that includes the protein product. The protein product wet cake is then further dried in a drying unit to yield the final protein powder product. In each system, the process filtrates undergo further processing by filtration and distillation to recover the organic solvent and separate out the omega-3 fish oil. The recovered organic solvent can be recycled back into the process. Solid protein product powder is thus recovered, along with omega-3 oil, purified water and recovered solvent.
