Abstract: The invention relates to a method for creating a surface structure on a mold, wherein first structural elements are created using a laser structuring process in a first step, and second structural elements, which are smaller than the first structural elements, are created using an anodic oxidation process in another step following the laser structuring process. The invention further relates to a mold of said type and finally to a plastic film or a plastic component having a surface structure as well as to a method for the production thereof.

Abstract: The invention concerns novel Lactobacillus strains and the uses thereof, in particular for preserving foods, animal feedstuff, pharmaceutical compositions and/or cosmetic compositions.

Abstract: A method for controlling a drive having at least one converter, at least one motor and an assigned drive control, wherein a failsafe CPU is operated separately from the drive control and only processes safety-relevant information, where a number of safety functions are implemented by the failsafe CPU such that the safety-relevant functions of the drive are implemented in a simple and reliable manner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a combined method for gentle molecular surface functionalisation of the very thin, selectively-acting separating layer which preferably consists of aromatic polyamides, polyurethanes and/or polyureas, of thin-film composite membranes for reverse osmosis (hyperfiltration) and for nanofiltration, subsequently collectively termed water-filtration membranes, in order to achieve a passive antifouling effect without impairing the selectivity of the water-selective separating layer made of polyamides and the water-permeability of the membrane.

Abstract: Described are microorganisms which are, in a first aspect, able to stimulate the growth of microorganisms of the resident skin microbial flora and which do not stimulate the growth of microorganisms of the transient pathogenic micro flora. In a second aspect microorganisms are described which are able to inhibit the growth of microorganisms of the transient pathogenic skin micro flora and which do not inhibit the growth of microorganisms of the resident skin micro flora. Also described are compositions comprising such microorganisms as well as the use of such microorganisms in cosmetic, prophylactic or therapeutic applications.

Abstract: A three-dimensional, porous structure made of fragments of a nanofibre web is provided. Furthermore, a method for the production of a three-dimensional, porous structure made of nanofibre web fragments is proposed. The three-dimensional, porous structure is used for example in medicine, preferably in regenerative medicine. Furthermore, the structure according to the invention made of fragments of a nanofibre web can be used for the treatment of tissue damage, for the immobilisation of biological cells, for the construction of biological tissue and as a biological filler in vitro and also in vivo.

Abstract: A laboratory centrifuge according to the invention provides much better de-mixing rates of centrifuged samples since providing at least one rotation compressor introduces substantially less vibration into the laboratory centrifuge, so that much lower remixing rates are provided.

Abstract: Described are compositions and kits comprising: (i) microorganisms which are able to stimulate the growth of microorganisms of the resident skin microbial flora and which do not stimulate the growth of microorganisms of the transient pathogenic micro flora and (ii) microorganisms which are able to inhibit the growth of one or more microorganisms of the transient pathogenic skin micro flora and which do not inhibit the growth of microorganisms of the healthy normal resident skin micro flora, in order to protect the skin against pathogenic microorganisms and to treat skin diseases. The present invention also relates to uses of the above mentioned microorganisms and to methods for the production of compositions and kits comprising such microorganisms.
