Influenza - Production of a live attenuated influenza virus vaccine
With a novel method it is possible for the first time to produce a live attenuated influenza A virus vaccine. The method is based on the production of specific mutants of influenza viruses which in vivo are in fact immunogenic, but not pathogenic. Their genome largely corresponds with that of the cu....
Technology:
Hollow fibres with coated inner cavities
The new procedure enables the production of tailor-made moulds with functional inner coatings. In contrast to previous production procedures, multiple coating of template fibres is not necessary any more. The novel procedure consists of solubilising or fluidising a first material in order to solubil....
Life science:
Protein-rich foodstuff
The invention is for a protein-rich plant foodstuff and a process for its production. The aim of the invention is to create a foodstuff that has the same amount of protein but lower fat content and is fruit-based and can be cultivated in central Europe. The residues of rape oil production can be use....
Technology:
Non-wovens consisting of oriented mesotubes and nanotubes
Meso- and nanotubes with different layers have been used for some time for the production of hollow fibres and non-wovens. These non-wovens and the hollow fibres are suitable as separation media as well as for storage and are used in microelectronics, optics and catalyst technology. Up to now, the c....
Technology:
Tubes with inner diameters on the scale of nanometers
Hollow fibres with inner diameters under 0,1 mm are versatile materials, which are already being used as separation and storage media, for the treatment of water as well as in micro-electronics and optics, for catalyst technology as well as for special fibres of the textile industry. Using previous ....
