Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
53 words
A process for sanitizing psyllium hydrophilic mucilloid without substantially affecting the useful properties, comprising subjecting psyllium hydrophilic mucilloid to moist heat such that the internal product temperature is from about 80°C to about 120°C, under conditions such that the pressure is above about 500 psi while concurrently extruding to ambient temperature and pressure.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
53 words
A process for sanitizing psyllium hydrophilic mucilloid without substantially affecting the useful properties, comprising subjecting psyllium hydrophilic mucilloid to moist heat such that the internal product temperature is from about 80°C to about 120°C, under conditions such that the pressure is above about 500 psi while concurrently extruding to ambient temperature and pressure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
15 words
A process according to Claim 1 where the internal product temperature is 100°C to 120°C.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
10 words
A psyllium hydrophilic mucilloid composition prepared according to Claim 1.
