*N = new entries where reclassification into entries is involved; C = entries with modified file scope where reclassification of

documents from the entries is involved; Q = new entries which are firstly populated with documents via administrative transfers

from deleted (D) entries. Afterwards, the transferred documents into the Q entry will either stay or be moved to more appropriate

entries, as determined by intellectual reclassification; E= existing entries with enlarged file scope, which receive documents from

C or D entries, e.g. when a limiting reference is removed from the entry title; M = entries with no change to the file scope (no

reclassification); D = deleted entries; F = frozen entries will be deleted once reclassification of documents from the entries is

NOTES:

**No {curly brackets} are used for titles in CPC only subclasses, e.g. C12Y, A23Y; 2000 series symbol titles of

groups found at the end of schemes (orthogonal codes); or the Y section titles. The {curly brackets} are used for 2000

series symbol titles found interspersed throughout the main trunk schemes (breakdown codes).

For U groups, the minimum requirement is to include the U group located immediately prior to the N group or N group

array, in order to show the N group hierarchy and improve the readability and understanding of the scheme. Always

include the symbol, indent level and title of the U group in the table above.

All entry types should be included in the scheme changes table above for better understanding of the overall scheme

change picture. Symbol, indent level, and title are required for all types except “D” which requires only a symbol.

#“Transferred to” column must be completed for all C, D, F, and Q type entries. F groups will be deleted once

reclassification is completed.

When multiple symbols are included in the “Transferred to” column, avoid using ranges of symbols in order to be as

precise as possible.

For administrative transfer of documents, the following text should be used: “< administrative transfer to XX>” or

“<administrative transfer to XX and YY simultaneously>” when administrative transfer of the same documents is to

more than one place.

Administrative transfer to main trunk groups is assumed to be “invention information”, unless otherwise indicated, and

to 2000 series groups is assumed to be “additional information”.

2. A. DEFINITIONS (i.e. new or modified)

A23L3/00 (modified)

Preservation of foods or foodstuffs, in general, e.g. pasteurising, sterilising,

specially adapted for foods or foodstuffs (preservation of flour or bread

A21D; processes specially adapted for particular foods or foodstuffs, see the

relevant groups for the foods or foodstuffs in A23; preserving foods or

foodstuffs in association with packaging B65B55/00; preservation of alcoholic

beverages C12H)

Definition statement

Preservation of foods or foodstuffs in general, e.g. by pasteurising, sterilising, heating, freezing, drying, pressurising, irradiation or treatment with chemicals, specially adapted for foods or foodstuffs.

Relationship between large subject matter areas

In relation to preservation of foods or foodstuffs in general, this main group is the primary home for this subject-matter. However, preservation subject matter specifically adapted for certain foods can also be found in subclasses A21D, A23B, A23C, A23D, A23F, A23G or A23J. These subclasses relate to flour or dough (A21D), dairy products (A23C), edible oils or fats (A23D), coffee, tea or their substitutes (A23F), cocoa, chocolate, confectionery or ice-cream (A23G) and protein compositions (A23J). For example, preservation of flour or dough or bakery products is subject-matter for subclass A21D, and preservation of meat, fish, eggs, fruit, vegetables and edible seeds e.g. cereals is subject matter for subclass A23B. Preservation of milk or milk preparations is subject matter for subclass A23C. In relation to preservation, deciding between this main group and the other subclasses listed above is generally a matter of function or application. Where the particular preservation technology is the main point of interest classification is made in this main group, and where the application to particular foodstuffs is the main interest classification is made in the subclasses listed above. Some double-classification is evident, see also special rules of classification below.

Special rules of classification within this group

A23L3/00: general preservations methods for food. Specific methods for vegetables, meat, fish, eggs, cereals : A23B. Double classification (A23B/A23L3/00) is sometimes necessary. Non-limiting examples of situations where double classification is necessary :

General method for preserving food but with specific examples for fish, meat;

Specific method for preserving vegetables but a more specific subgroup exists in A23L3/00 for

the preservation method e.g. high pressure treatment.

Sterilisation and packaging : sterilisation of the food product before packaging (aseptic filling) : B65B55/00, sterilisation after packaging : A23L3/00. A61L2/00 for general (non-food) preservation methods Beverage preservation is generally classified both in A23L2/42 (et seq.) and A23L3/00, when the preservation method is not strictly limited to non-alcoholic beverages. Same rule apply in A23C (milk preservation). When classifying in A23L3/00, A23V2002/00 indexing system should also be used when appropriate, in accordance with A23V2002/00 classification rules.

Special rules of classification within this group

All specific examples should be classified as additional information e.g. formulation examples of a new sweetener in a chewing gum formulation, bakery product, yogurt, ice cream, chocolate, beverage should be classified in the corresponding subclasses in addition to the relevant subgroup for the sweetener itself. Dietetic beverages should also be classified in A23L33/00 or lower subgroups (in addition to A23L2/00) When classifying in A23L5/00, A23V2002/00 indexing system should also be used when appropriate in accordance with A23V2002/00 classification rules. Processes, apparatus/device for shaping food in general should be classified in A23P. A23L27/75 : includes cyclodextrin complexes A23L27/79: includes dissolvable flavoured films to placed in the mouth A23L27/30 : concerns sweetening agents. Sugars or other carbohydrates used for non-sweetening purposes (e.g. freezing point reducing agent, filler) are classified in A23L29/30, double classification is occasionally possible. A23L33/00: modification of nutritive value without additive e.g. by selection, specific treatment (e.g. cultivation, cooking, processing) A23L33/30: only dietetic methods e.g. special dietetic or dietary regimens, not only for losing weight A23L33/40: food formulations comprising at least all macronutrients (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates). Pre- or post-operative nutritional compositions, complete foods formulations for special purposes or population (infant, elderly, pregnancy, etc.) A23L33/10 : Functional food (food or dietary supplement with dietetic or therapeutic indication) are classified in A23L33/10 which is the main group for functional foods. A23L33/10 Also includes mixtures of additives and other additives not covered by subgroups A23L33/105 to A23L33/26. Those additives may also be classified in appropriate subgroups of A23L5/00 (e.g. A23L29/30 for sugars, A23L31/00 for fungi). Multiple classification for combination of ingredients is preferred when the ingredients are essential for the invention. In addition, Indexing Codes A23V2002/00 should be used for indicating a combination of additives and possibly together with their function. A23L33/135: is used for microorganism having an effect on health, generally probiotics. A23L29/065 is used when the microorganism is used for other purposes, e.g. flavouring, bioconversion of substances, fermentation. A23L13/42: comminuted meat is optional; additives in whole meat pieces are also classified here

* C = entries with modified file scope where reclassification of documents from the entries is involved; Q = new entries which

are firstly populated with documents via administrative transfers from deleted (D) entries. Afterwards, the transferred documents

into the Q entry will either stay or be moved to more appropriate entries, as determined by intellectual reclassification; D =

deleted entries.

NOTES:

Only C, D, and Q type entries are included in the table above.

When multiple symbols are included in the “To” column, avoid using ranges of symbols in order to be as precise as

possible.

For administrative transfer of documents, the following text should be used: “< administrative transfer to XX>” or

“<administrative transfer to XX and YY simultaneously>” when administrative transfer of the same documents is to

more than one place.

Administrative transfer to main trunk groups is assumed to be “invention information”, unless otherwise indicated, and

to 2000 series groups is assumed to be “additional information”.

NOTES:

The CRL tables above are used for changes to locations outside of the project scope. Changes to references in scheme

titles or definitions inside the project scope will be reflected in the “scheme change” template or one of the “definition”

templates.

In addition to other changes proposed in the tables above, in the column titled “Referenced subclass or group to be

changed,” referenced D symbols should indicate an action of “delete” or should indicate a replacement symbol and

referenced F symbols should indicate a replacement symbol.

When a reference is deleted, text related to that reference will also be deleted unless other references or a range of

references associated with the same text remain.
