Abstract:

A mushroom based food product is made by cutting the cap portion of a mushroom along at least two generally parallel cut lines that are spaced apart by a predetermined distance. The cut lines are generally perpendicular to the stem portion of the mushroom and together form a generally cylindrically shaped mushroom slice. The mushroom slice has a circumference which corresponds to the circumference of the cap portion of the mushroom between the cut lines and has a thickness which corresponds to the predetermined distance.

US Classification:

422102000

Abstract:

A reaction cuvette having anti-wicking wall fillets that inhibit liquid wicking along an interior wall surface so that the reaction cuvette may be used in a cuvette-rewashing system in an automated analyzer and not be adversely affected by any reagent contaminants remaining from assays previously performed in said reaction cuvette. The anti-wicking wall fillets comprise a curvilinear taper extending from an open top downwards into the cuvette to form a rounded concave blend between the cuvette's front and back walls and side walls.

International Classification:

G07F 11/44

Abstract:

A feeder system for item feeding is presented. The feeder system may include a container having a plurality of walls, an actuator, a selector, and a chute. The container receives a plurality of items. An opening is formed in the container. The items flow through the opening towards the selector by a gravitational force. The selector singulates the plurality of items into one item. The chute receives the singulated item one at a time from the selector. The actuator is attached to the container and agitates the container to maintain a flow of the plurality of items passing through the opening.
