  • Patent number: 6514773
    Abstract: Subject matter of the invention is a method for detecting surface contamination by an analyte by wiping the analyte off the surface with the aid of a wiping surface, eluting the analyte from the wiping surface with an eluant, and detecting the analyte in the eluate in an immunological detection reaction, characterized in that: a) the surface to be tested for the analyte is wiped with a wiping surface, b) the wiping surface is brought into contact with the planar surface of a capillary active, chromatographic test strip which has an eluant application zone at its one end and a target zone at its other end whereby contact is made in an area between these two zones, c) eluting liquid is applied onto the zone provided for this purpose, said liquid moving toward the target zone passes the contact site with the wiping surface as a consequence of capillary forces, whereby analyte is taken up by the eluant, and d) in the target zone, the analyte is measured in an immunological binding reaction.

  • Patent number: 5980787
    Abstract: A protective element for an electrochemical accumulator is made of granular varistor material, the mean diameter of the grains of the varistor material being less than 1 .mu.m, in particular less than 250 nm and, for more than 60% of the grains of the varistor material, the grain size deviating by at most 40% from its statistical average. For the preparation of such grains, a dispersion is made up to form biochemical hollow bodies which have an internal diameter in accordance with the above requirements. The dispersion is admixed with salts which dissolve in the dispersion with the formation of intermediate ions of a substance forming an intermediate for a varistor material, the intermediate ion of a substance forming an intermediate for a varistor material being an intermediate ion of an element required for the varistor material or of a corresponding compound.

  • Patent number: 5811207
    Abstract: The invention relates to a charge exchange body with a large active surface as well as the method for its manufacture. The porous supporting structure of the charge exchange body is made of granular structural material, with the average diameter of the grains of the structural material being smaller than 1 .mu.m, especially smaller than 250 nm, and with the grain size differing by a maximum of 40% from its statistical average in more than 60% of the grains of the structural material. In order to make such grains, a dispersion is mixed with biochemical hollow bodies that have an inside diameter according to the above requirements. Salts are added to the dispersion and dissolve therein to form structural ions, with the structural ion being an ion of an element required for the structural material, or a corresponding compound.
