Provided are: a method of preparing a cannabis processed product having an increased CBN content in an efficient and economic manner, through cyclization of CBD and aromatization of THC by continuous microwave irradiation of a cannabis extract; and use of a processed product having an increased CBN content prepared by the method, a fraction thereof, and a single ingredient of CBN, in foods, drugs, and cosmetics.

A food processing device includes a reaction vessel, a stirrer including a stirring body, and catalyst reactors. Each catalyst reactor includes a reaction tube and a light source. The reaction tube has an outer surface on which a photocatalyst is provided, and transmits light. The catalyst reactors are arranged around a rotating shaft. The light source includes light emitters disposed at different positions. When viewed in an axial direction of the rotating shaft, the catalyst reactors have equal phases. The phase of each catalyst reactor is a phase of a reference direction of the reaction tube of the catalyst reactor with respect to a straight line connecting centers of the rotating shaft and the reaction tube. The reference direction of the reaction tube is a direction determined on the basis of a direction in which light is emitted from the light emitters and a positional relationship between the light emitters.

Methods of making mixed allergen compositions, e.g., substantially aerobic organism free mixed allergen compositions, and the resulting allergen composition, are provided.

The present invention relates to amorphous particles comprising sugar and a bulking agent, having a closed porosity of lower than 20%. Further aspects of the invention relate to a food product comprising the amorphous particles; a process of making the amorphous particles and a fat based confectionery product containing them; and the use of the amorphous particles as bulk sugar replacers in food products such as fat based confectionery products for example, chocolate.

Polyesters, such as those formed using polyols and di- or tri-carboxylic acids or anhydrides or salts thereof, are used as foam control agents in foodstuff processing. The polyesters are biodegradable and biocompatible while still providing excellent foam control capacity. In addition, polyesters foam control agents of the disclosure can be used with various apparatus while avoiding forming films that otherwise affect apparatus function. The polyesters can be used at various stages during industrial processing of vegetables (e.g., potatoes and beets) and fruits.

The invention relates to a flow cell having a tube piece which extends along a longitudinal axis and within which a first electrode is coaxially arranged. The tube piece is formed by a first tube section and by a second tube section and by a second electrode which is arranged between the first and the second tube sections and which is circumferentially closed, so that its inner surface forms a part of the tube piece.

A method of fabricating a processed food product containing protein includes, while moving a mixture in a tubular body, continuously heat-coagulating the mixture by an interior heating system and shaping the mixture. The mixture contains protein, lipid and water and has flowability. The tubular body includes a heating section and a non-heating section succeeding the heating section. The non-heating section includes a back pressure structure that produces back pressure inside the tubular body.
