Abstract: A method for producing plant protection or plant-strengthening agent for fighting against bacterial and/or fungal plant diseases, in particular against a fire blight consisting in adding capable to proliferate fungal structures into an acid medium for treating plants.

Abstract: The present invention provides isolated full-length nucleic acid molecules encoding the novel PDE protein of the invention, and methods for uses thereof. The nucleic acid molecules of the invention also include peptide nucleic acids (PNA), and antisense molecules that react with the nucleic acid molecules of the invention. The invention also relates to agonists, antibodies, antagonists or inhibitors of the activity of novel PDE proteins. These compositions are useful for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment of conditions associated with the presence or the deficiency of novel PDE proteins.

Abstract: A system for converting fuel and air into reformate with a reformer which has a reaction space, a nozzle for supplying a fuel/air mixture to the reaction space, and a fuel feed for supplying fuel to the nozzle. In the reaction space, there is a breaker body for a fuel/air mixture supplied through the nozzle.

Abstract: A system for converting fuel and air into reformate with a reformer which has a reaction space, a nozzle for supplying a fuel/air mixture to the reaction space, and a fuel feed for supplying fuel to the nozzle (14). The nozzle is a Venturi nozzle with an air inlet area and a diffusor area which extends downstream with respect to the air inlet area.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for converting fuel and air into reformate with a reformer which has a reaction space, a nozzle for supplying a fuel/air mixture to the reaction space, and a fuel feed for supplying fuel to the nozzle. In the invention, the air inlet area of the nozzle is provided with air guidance means which impart a swirl to the in-flowing air.

Abstract: A heating device (1) is provided with a sleeve member (14) surrounding a burner element (10) of the heating device, such that a combustion air chamber (15), having a predetermined volume coordinated to the respective configuration of the burner, is obtained between the burner element (10) and the sleeve member (14). The sleeve member (14) may be radially divided into two parts (14a, 14b), which parts are tightened against each other for sealing purposes. At a front end, the combustion air chamber (15) is defined by a cover (16) having an inlet opening (17) for the combustion air, which inlet opening is sealed relative to the environment and is connected with the outlet of a combustion air blower. The sleeve member (14) may be made of a light metal, such as aluminum or an aluminum alloy.
