Isolation Of Aflatoxin-Free Lutein From Aflatoxin-Contaminated Plants And Plant Products

View page
US Patent:
7671242, Mar 2, 2010
Filed:
Dec 21, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/315680
Inventors:
Jack N. Losso - Baton Rouge LA, US
Evdokia Menelaou - Baton Rouge LA, US
Joan M. King - Baton Rouge LA, US
Assignee:
Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College - Baton Rouge LA
International Classification:
C07C 35/21
C07C 35/18
US Classification:
568816, 568822, 568827, 568832, 568834
Abstract:
An efficient method is disclosed for extracting lutein from corn, sweet potato, and other plant products, and for extracting aflatoxin-free lutein from aflatoxin-contaminated plant grains and other plant products safely without any toxic by-products. The lutein is extracted using acetone, and either chilled or saponified to separate from the lipids. If contaminated with aflatoxin, the extracted aflatoxin-contaminated lutein is treated with lipoxidase. This method may be used in producing aflatoxin-free lutein from other contaminated grains or plant oils, or other plant products, including corn, cotton, soybean, rice, barley, wheat, maize, millet, and peanut.

US Patent:
20050267292, Dec 1, 2005
Filed:
Apr 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/108594
Inventors:
Jack Losso - Baton Rouge LA, US
Masahiro Ogawa - Takamatsu, JP
Ralph Portier - Baton Rouge LA, US
Mark Schexnayder - Metairie LA, US
International Classification:
C07K014/78
US Classification:
530356000
Abstract:
A method is disclosed for extracting collagen from calcified tissue without a prior decalcification step. The method may be used with calcified tissues such as fish skin with scales, alligator skeletons, and crustacean exoskeletons. It does not require the use of EDTA. When fish skin is used that contains substantial quantities of scales, it is not necessary first to remove scales from the skin before conducting the extraction of collagen.

Fenugreek Flour For Incorporating Into Food Products

US Patent:
20100266665, Oct 21, 2010
Filed:
Apr 19, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/762896
Inventors:
Jack N. Losso - Baton Rouge LA, US
John W. Finley - Baton Rouge LA, US
Darryl L. Holliday - Baton Rouge LA, US
Luke A. Mumphrey - Baton Rouge LA, US
International Classification:
A61K 9/14
A61K 36/48
A61P 5/50
A61P 3/10
A21D 2/36
A21D 13/04
A23L 1/29
US Classification:
424439, 424757, 426460, 426385, 426629, 426550, 426589, 426590, 426599
Abstract:
A process for obtaining fenugreek flour from fenugreek seeds has been developed, and the flour incorporated into baked or other food products. The processed fenugreek flour from boiled seeds was easier to add into food products than whole seeds and did not compromise the food's taste or texture. This fenugreek flour can be included in everyday food items and will allow increased use in fenugreek to aid in the prevention of diabetes and obesity. Using this flour, a fenugreek bread formula was developed, and the bread was produced in a commercial bakery by incorporating fenugreek flour into a standard wheat bread formula. Eight diet controlled diabetic subjects were served wheat bread with about 5% fenugreek, and the consumption of the fenugreek bread was shown to reduce serum insulin indicating the bioactivity of the fenugreek remained in the bread.

US Patent:
20180021411, Jan 25, 2018
Filed:
Jun 16, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/625777
Inventors:
Jack N. Losso - Baton Rouge LA, US
Jose Daniel Estrada Andino - Baton Rouge LA, US
Assignee:
Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College - Baton Rouge LA
International Classification:
A61K 38/39
A61K 31/728
A61K 36/28
A61K 31/191
A61K 31/343
A61K 31/198
A61K 31/353
Abstract:
An intervention for sleep disorders comprises: collagen, a gelatin peptide, or the amino acid glycine; L-theanine; lactucopicrin, deoxylactucopicrin, or another lactucopicrin derivative; hyaluronic acid; epigallocatechin gallate; and quinic acid. The intervention helps regulate pro-inflammatory biomarkers that are often associated with insomnia development and progression. These biomarkers include cytokines and enzymes associated with tryptophan degradation. Inhibition of these enzymes and cytokines improves tryptophan availability and sleep quality, and allows individuals to sleep better with fewer side effects. The composition promotes high-quality, deep sleep.
