Abstract:
Readings of a characteristic of the yarn along the longitudinal direction of the yarn are detected. Values of a yarn parameter are determined from the readings. An event field contains a quadrant of a two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, whose abscissa defines an extension of yarn parameter values in the longitudinal direction and whose ordinate defines a deviation of the yarn parameter from a desired value. Densities of events in the event field are determined from the values of the yarn parameter and their extensions in the longitudinal direction. A yarn body is represented as an area in the event field. The area on the one hand is delimited by the abscissa, on the other hand by the ordinate and further by a line in the event field that substantially follows a constant event density. The representation of the yarn body permits a clearing limit to be defined in a rapid and rational manner.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a joining element (10), especially a suture material for surgical use. The joining element (10) is composed of a first material (12) that is essentially rigid during impingement by a relatively short-lasting tensile load on opposite sides as well as a second material (11) which is connected to the first material. The second material is substantially rigid during impingement by said tensile load on opposite sides while contracting slowly during a second period of time that is longer than the first period of time.

Abstract:
For the production from a liquid food of an at least partially foamed food, in particular at least partially foamed milk or a milk product, the liquid food, which is contained in a container (1) or a capsule-type formation, is expelled from the container or the capsule, and at least partially foamed and subsequently expelled by generating an at least partially turbulent flow.

Abstract:
Described is a method for electrochemically patterning a microelectrode array (MEA) with at least two different kinds of macromolecules. Said method comprising the steps of: providing a platform with a surface that comprises individually addressable conductive microelectrode surfaces; covering said platform surface with an adlayer of resistant polymer; desorbing said adlayer from a first kind of conductive microelectrodes intended for the selective adsorption of a first kind of macromolecules, in particular proteins, by applying a potential; subjecting the desorbed surfaces to the first macromolecule under conditions such that said first macromolecule adsorbs to said desorbed surfaces, and repeating the desorption/adsorption steps with a second or further kind of macromolecules until all kinds of desired macromolecules are adsorbed. A microchip array produced by the inventive method is also described. Such chip arrays can be used to study a large diversity of biological interactions, e.g. protein-protein interactions, protein-cell interactions, protein-nucleic acid interactions, etc.
