Abstract:

A composition which comprises a) a gluten-free cereal flour, and b) a hydroxypropyl methylcellulose or methyl cellulose having particle sizes such that more than 50 weight percent of the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose or methyl cellulose particles are retained on a sieve of 150 micrometers mesh size and pass through a sieve of 420 micrometers mesh size is useful for producing food products, such as gluten-free bakery products or gluten-free pasta.

Appl. No.:

13/942775

Inventors:

Robert L. Schmitt - Annandale NJ, US
Matthias Knarr - Nienburg/Weser, DE

International Classification:

A61K 47/38

US Classification:

514781, 427 214

Abstract:

A liquid composition which comprises an organic liquid diluent and at least one hydroxypropyl methylcellulose having 28 to 30 weight percent of methoxyl groups, 7 to 12 weight percent of hydroxypropoxyl groups and a sum of methoxyl groups and hydroxypropoxyl groups of from 38.5 to 42 weight percent is stable over an extended time period.The liquid composition is useful for preparing a solid dispersion comprising at least one active ingredient in at least one hydroxypropyl methylcellulose by spray-drying.Alternatively a solid dispersion can be produced by blending and extruding at least one active ingredient, at least one hydroxypropyl methylcellulose described above and optionally one or more adjuvants.

International Classification:

G06F 19/00
G06F 17/18

Abstract:

Method, systems, and devices for designing a test molecule are disclosed. An example method includes using a molecular simulator to generate sets of simulation data. Each set of simulation data may include simulation data indicative of simulated locations in a solvent of (i) molecules of a reference molecule and (ii) molecules of one of M test molecules. The method may also include determining a probability of contact between an a species and a β species for each set of simulated data. A contact may occur when a particle of the β species is within a range of radials distances from a particle of the α species. Each of the a species and the β species may be one of the reference molecule, the solvent, or one of the M test molecules. The method may further include determining a simulation result based on at least one probability of contact.

International Classification:

C07H 3/06

Abstract:

Two or more esters of a cellulose ether, each having the same ether and ester substituents but different weight average molecular weights are prepared in a process which comprises the steps of esterifying a cellulose ether with (i) an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid anhydride or (ii) a dicarboxylic acid anhydride or (iii) a combination of an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid anhydride and a dicarboxylic acid anhydride in the presence of an aliphatic carboxylic acid as a reaction diluent in two or more separate reactions, wherein in each reaction a different molar ratio [aliphatic carboxylic acid/anhydroglucose units of cellulose ether] is used to produce esters of the cellulose ether of different weight average molecular weights.
