  • Patent number: 11572415
    Abstract: The application pertains to a trispecific antibody molecule which may comprise a diabody-unit integrated into a polypeptide chain having at least six variable domains linked one after another. In certain instances two single-chain Fv (scFv) fragments are distally connected to the diabody-unit providing two further antigen binding sites (FIGS. 1 and 2).

  • Publication number: 20210253698
    Abstract: The invention relates to multispecific antigen-binding proteins for engaging natural killer (NK) cells for triggering NK cell cytotoxicity by engaging the CD16A (Fc?RIIIA)expressed on NK cells, wherein the antigen-binding protein comprises at least two CD16A antigen-binding moieties and at least a further target antigen-binding moiety. The CD16A antigen-binding moiety comprises light chain and heavy chain variable regions linked one after another in a polypeptide chain and the variable region at the N-terminus of the polypeptide chain comprising the CD16A antigen-binding moiety is a light chain variable region.

  • Patent number: 7074315
    Abstract: In the production of printed circuit boards it is required that organic protective coatings adhere tightly on the copper surfaces. Accordingly, matt layers of copper are to be preferred over lustrous coatings. The bath in accordance with the invention serves to deposit matt layers of copper and has the additional advantageous property that the layers may also be deposited with sufficient coating thickness in very narrow bore holes at average cathode current density. For this purpose the bath contains at least one polyglycerin compound selected from the group comprising poly(1,2,3-propantriol), poly(2,3-epoxy-1-propanol) and derivatives thereof.
