A method of employing ultrasonic Doppler monitoring of blood flow in a patient's blood vessel includes, providing an ultrasonic transducer operatively associated with an ultrasonic processor by connection through an electrically conductive wire. The ultrasonic transducer-conducer wire assembly is secured to a strip of biologically inert or absorbable material, which is subsequently wrapped into contacting surrounding relationship with the exterior surface of the blood vessel and secured in such position to establish a cuff. The ultrasonic transducer-wire assembly is employed in a Doppler mode to monitor blood flow within the blood vessel. After completion of monitoring the ultrasonic transducer-wire assembly, but not the cuff are removed from the patient. The monitoring cuff is preferably positioned downstream, with respect to the direction of blood flow, of an anastomosis in the blood vessel.

Meats having the necessary low-interior-acid level for acid foods and which are more natural, better tasting, and have a better texture than that presently obtained using the encapsulated-acid process can be prepared by a process including the steps of salting a meat emulsion to extract salt-soluble protein for binding, extruding the emulsion into a hot salt solution, cooking with agitation in the hot salt solution to heat set the exterior of the protein, followed by further treating of the meat in an acid solution containing salt to reduce the pH of the meat particles. The use of expensive fat-coated acids is unnecessary to obtain an acidified meat product.

Fish fillets, particularly those from high fat fish, can be storage stabilized and yield stabilized by means of a composition containing an alkali metal tripolyphosphate hydrated with lemon juice solids, an alkali metal acid pyrophosphate and an alkali metal sorbate at sorbate levels significantly less than required by prior art and without citric acid.

Phosphate is recovered from waste. Trialkali metal orthophosphate used to reduce, remove or retard bacterial contamination during raw meat slaughter including poultry, fish and shellfish and red meat evisceration is recovered from an aqueous waste and recycled as a food additive for animal feed. The waste water containing the phosphate can be collected and mixed with offal during processing of the offal or may be concentrated and blended with the offal as feed for animals or may be reacted with an alkaline earth metal salt and concentrated and used as a calcium and phosphate supplement for animal feed. Trisodium orthophosphate is reacted with calcium chloride and the resulting precipitate removed from the aqueous stream by filtration or centrifugation or other means for separation. The precipitate is then added to offal during processing for animal feed or dried sterilized and sold as an animal feed mineral supplement.

The present invention generally relates to the transdermal delivery of substances, e.g., for warming skin. Some aspects of the invention are generally directed to formulations that are able to deliver warming sensations to the skin to the skin within seconds, as opposed to minutes as in certain prior art formulations. In some embodiments, the composition may include warming agents, such as vanillyl butyl ether, which have an onset time of less than 1 minute, in addition to more longer-term warming agents such as oleoresin of capsicum. Other components, such as menthoxypropanediol, may be used in some cases, e.g., to provide a cooling sensation in addition to the warming effects of the warming agents. Surprisingly, this may enhance the warming effect of the warming agent. In addition, in some cases, the formulation may contain a nitric oxide donor, such as L-arginine, which may increase blood flow in the skin, and/O or a high salt environment to facilitate delivery into the skin.
