A system includes memory banks that store data and a data path coupled to the memory banks that transfers the data. The system also includes a latch that gates the data path based on a clock signal in the system. The system further includes interface circuitry coupled to the data path that sends an instruction to the memory banks to transmit the data on the data path in response to receiving a first rising edge of the clock signal. The interface circuitry also outputs gated data in response to receiving a second rising edge of the clock signal. The latch gates the data path to store the gated data in response to receiving a falling edge of the clock signal.

A system for process monitoring of the treatment of media, in particular a HACCP-compliant system for the preservation of foods. In order to ensure and standardize successful treatment, system comprises an electroporator for treating a medium with a pulsed electric field, at least one measuring device for determining a change of a condition parameter of the medium caused by the treatment with the pulsed electric field, and an evaluation device for comparing the determined change of the condition parameter to a predetermined change target value and for outputting a warning signal once the difference between the determined change and the predetermined change target value exceeds a limit value.

A storage container includes an input portion for receiving and filtering a source liquid to form an output liquid, a storage portion for storing the filtered liquid, and a base portion disposed below the storage portion including a UV light source for providing transmitted UV light to the filtered liquid, a UV light detector disposed an optical path length away from the UV light source for detecting received UV light through the filtered liquid in response to the transmitted UV light, a processor for determining an absorption or a transmission percentage in response to the transmitted UV light and the received UV light, for determining a safe condition, in response to the absorption or the transmission percentage respectively not exceeding or exceeding predetermined criteria, and one or more indicators for indicating that the liquid is safe for consumption to a user, in response to the safe condition.

Methods and systems for making and bottling a juice containing beverage in sealed containers are disclosed. The systems and methods may be performed without using heat-based or pressure-based pasteurization, and yet are still safe to consume and have a commercially viable shelf-life.
