Abstract: A housing for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine of a vehicle, includes at least two housing shell areas (12, 14) enclosing a housing interior (26) and connected to one another in a connection area (16). A first housing shell area (12) of the two housing shell areas has a first meshing formation (36) in the at least one connection area (16) and a second housing shell area (14) of the two housing shell areas has a second meshing formation (40) that meshes or can be caused to positive-lockingly mesh with the first meshing formation (36). The first meshing formation (36) includes at least one meshing opening (38) and the second meshing formation (40) includes at least one meshing strap (42) meshing with the at least one meshing opening (38) in association with the at least one meshing opening (38) of the first meshing formation (36).

Abstract: A connection unit connects an electrical supply line to a connection element of a heatable exhaust gas system. The connection unit has a housing having a connection element receiving region extending in the direction of a first housing axis (G1) and a supply line receiving region extending in the direction of a second housing axis (G2). The connection element receiving region is open in a first axial connection element receiving region end region for receiving the connection element protruding from an exhaust gas system and is closed off in a second axial connection element receiving region end region. The supply line receiving region is open to the connection element receiving region in a first axial supply line receiving region end region and is open in a second supply line receiving region end region for receiving an electrical supply line.

Abstract: A mixer for an exhaust gas duct system of an internal combustion engine includes a flow channel element (16) with a flow channel (14), through which exhaust gases can flow in a main direction of flow (S). At least one mixer element (12) in the flow channel element (16) is movable in the flow channel element (16) to change a mixing effect.

Abstract: A device for exhaust-gas treatment near an engine includes an annular structure and a guide structure disposed in an exhaust line. An inner wall forms an inner flow passage and an outer flow passage in the annular structure. The inner wall and the guide structure form a gap in such a way that only a limited secondary flow of the exhaust gas is conducted through the inner flow passage. A motor vehicle having the device is also provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of targeting a protein of interest to an intracellular hydrophobic inclusion body of a bacterial cell by means of a fusion protein comprising a hydrophobic targeting peptide operatively linked with said protein of interest; methods of microbial production of a lipophilic compound of interest by means of a recombinant bacterial host comprising intracellular inclusion bodies having at least one enzyme which is involved in the biosynthesis of said lipophilic compound targeted to said inclusion bodies; as well as corresponding fusion proteins, coding sequences, expression vectors and recombinant hosts.
