  • Method for coating surfaces with microparticles and nanoparticles with the aid of plasma methods
    Patent number: 8541065
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for coating surfaces with micro- and nanoparticles, the micro- and nanoparticles being chemically bonded to the surface, comprising the steps of pre-treatment of the surface with a plasma method, simultaneous or subsequent application of the micro- and nanoparticles to the surface, and subsequent fixation of the micro and nanoparticles on the surface using a plasma method, characterized in that the fixation of the micro- and nanoparticles takes place with the aid of anisothermal plasmas, the median electrical energy of which lies in the range of the bond dissociation energy of the micro- and nanoparticles, thus allowing the strength of the chemical bond between the surface and the micro- and nanoparticles to be variably set.
    Type: Grant

  • Micro/nanoparticle obtained from lipid-containing marine organisms for use in pharmaceutics and cosmetics
    Publication number: 20060233845
    Abstract: The invention relates to pharmaceutically or cosmetically active agents, which are obtained by converting biomasses consisting of lipid-containing marine organisms into microparticles and nanoparticles and which preferably have an average diameter of 10 nm 10 ?m. Possible fields of application of these agents include the field of medicine, the production of cosmetics or the production of foodstuffs and, in particular, the agents are used for the prophylaxis of nosocomial infections, accelerating cell growth and for inhibiting staphylococci.
