Edible Oil and Processes for Its Production from Microalgae

Novel triglyceride oils are provided for human consumption. Traditionally, agricultural materials such as canola, soybean, and olives have been the sources of edible oils, and such materials are limited by the geography in which these crops can be cultivated. Oils of the invention can be manufactured from edible and inedible heterotrophic fermentation feedstocks, including corn starch, sugar cane, glycerol, and depolymerized cellulose that are purpose-grown or byproducts of existing agricultural processes from an extremely broad diversity of geographic regions. The food oils disclosed herein are low in saturates, high in monounsaturates, and can be manufactured in reduced pigment form through the use of pigment-reduced microalgae strains. The food oils disclosed herein can be manufactured through the use of a variety of different types of oil-producing microalgae.

Closed capsule with opening means

The present invention relates to a capsule containing a substance for the preparation of a beverage that is designed to be extracted by injection of a fluid under pressure. The capsule comprises a closed chamber containing the substance with at least part of the closed chamber including a retaining part made of a flexible membrane. One or more raised elements that face the membrane are associated with and forming part of the capsule. These element(s) are used to open the capsule due to a buildup of pressure therein. This rise in pressure causes relative engagement of the raised element(s) with the membrane until the membrane ruptures or is torn to release the formed beverage from the chamber. As the liquid of the beverage does not come into contact with the machine, hygiene is improved and cross-contamination is reduced when preparing a beverage from the capsule.
