Abstract: A nutritional composition comprising phospholipids, sphingolipids and cholesterol for the prevention of obesity and/or diabetes is provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a nutritional composition for infants and/or toddlers comprising a lipid component which has a lipid globules coated with polar lipids. The composition can be used to prevent obesity and/or improve body composition later in life. Said liquid comprises 10-50 wt % vegetable liquids based on the dry weight of the composition, and (i) 0.5-20 wt % phospholipids based on total weight or (ii) 0.6-25 wt % of polar lipids based on total lipids, wherein polar lipids are the sum of phospholipids, glycosphingolipids and cholesterol, and said composition comprises lipid globules with a core comprising said vegetable lipids and a coating comprising said phospholipids or polar lipids.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a nutritional composition for infants and/or toddlers comprising a lipid component which has a large lipid globule size. The composition can be used to prevent obesity and/or improve body composition later in life. Said lipid component comprises 10-50 wt % vegetable lipids, and the lipid globules have a volume-weighted diameter above 1.0 m and/or a diameter of 2-12 m in an amount of at least 45 vol %.

Abstract: An electrical contacting device for electrical physical contact with a specimen, particularly wafers, taking place in a contacting direction, with at least one conductor substrate which can be electrically connected to a testing device, at least one contact distance transformer and at least one contact head having electrical contact elements, particularly resilient contact elements, preferably serving to compensate different physical contact distances existing in the contacting direction particularly at the contact elements.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for feeding and to compositions to be administered to infants delivered via caesarian section and in particular to the use of a) at least two different microorganisms; or b) at least one microorganism and at least one indigestible oligosaccharide; or c)at least two different Bifidobacteria species, subspecies or strains for the manufacture of a composition for enteral administration to an infant delivered via caesarean section. Thereby it is possible to stimulate the healthy development of the intestinal flora of said infants.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for feeding and stimulating the health of infants delivered via caesarean section comprising administering long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and/or nucleotides.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an improved balance of the essential branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine in infant formula.

Abstract: A food or supplement for pregnant women comprising water soluble, non-digestible saccharides is described. The composition is used to improve the flora and/or immune system of the pregnant women, to improve the immune system of the infant and to improve the intestinal flora of the infant after birth.

Abstract: An electrical testing apparatus for testing an electrical test sample. The apparatus includes a conductor substrate which is electrically connected via a contact spacing converter to a test head. The conductor substrate is mechanically connected to a first stiffening device and is thereby stiffened. At least one spacer which penetrates the conductor substrate is mechanically connected to the contact spacing converter and is held on the first stiffening device via at least one tilt adjusting arrangement.

Abstract: The present invention relates to human milk fortifiers comprising high protein content and long chain poly-unsaturated fatty acids. Use of such human milk fortifier improves the body adipose tissue distribution by increasing the subcutaneous adipose tissue mass, while at the same time not increasing visceral adipose tissue.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition for the treatment and/or prevention of infection by gastrointestinal pathogens, in particular Helicobacter pylori and/or a disease associated with infection by said gastrointestinal pathogen in mammals.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a composition for feeding low birthweight infants (LBW infants), very low birthweight infants (VLBW infants), extremely low birthweight infants (ELBW infants) and preterm infants for improving oral tolerance.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an improved balance of the essential branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine in infant formula.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of nutritional compositions enriched in glutamineto improve structural brain development in preterm and/or low birth weight infants.

Abstract: Door handle assembly (1) for a vehicle, including a door handle (2) for actuating a door lock (6), which can be moved by external power from a level rest position to an exposed operative position, and a lock cylinder (3) placed adjacent to the door handle (2) for locking and unlocking the door lock (6). The lock cylinder (3) can be covered by a cover plate (4) which, when actuated by hand, exposes the lock cylinder (3) and allows switch of the door handle (2) from the rest position to the operative position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of nutritional compositions enriched in glutamine to improve structural and functional brain development in preterm and/or low birth weight infants.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a nutritional composition for infants and/or toddlers comprising a lipid component which has a lipid globules coated with phospholipids. The composition is used for increasing bone mineral content, bone mineral density, preventing osteoporosis, and/or preventing ostopenia.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preventing obesity later in life by administering a certain nutritional composition to an infant between 0 and 36 months of age.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and composition for the treatment and/or prevention of infection, said method comprising orally administering a composition to a mammal, said composition comprising a galactose containing indigestible oligosaccharide and immunoglobulin from the milk or colostrum of hyperimmunized cows.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preventing obesity later in life by administering a certain nutritional composition to an infant with the age between 0 and 36 months. The composition comprises linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid.
