Abstract: The present invention relates to formulations comprising A) sphinganine and B) at least one active ingredient selected from the group creatine, creatinine, caffeine, carnitine, biotin, arjunolic acid, xymenynic acid, minoxidil, arginine and derivatives thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of 4-aminobutyric acid, also referred to as gamma-aminobutyric acid, in short GABA, to a process for the production of an extract comprising 4-aminobutyric acid, to a process for the preparation of a cosmetic formulation comprising 4-aminobutyric acid, and to the use of Cyanidium caldarium cells or cell components in cosmetic applications.

Abstract: A moveable plow for a locomotive suitable for operating in sandy environments is provided. The moveable plow comprises a body and a wearable lip. The body forms a curl at its top edge along substantially the entire body width to channel the flow of sand outwardly. The lip is removably affixed to the body and contacts a rail. The moveable plow is attached to a bogie by a pneumatically operated height adjusting mechanism that can raise or lower the moveable plow. The moveable plow and rail define a sweep angle equal to or greater than an angle of repose of the sand in the surrounding environment.

Abstract: The invention relates to genetically modified Pichia ciferrii cells, to the use thereof and to a method of producing sphingoid bases and sphingolipids.

Abstract: A sand plow system for a locomotive is described. The sand plow system may comprise an adjustable plow configured for vertical adjustment between a lowered position in which the adjustable plow is in contact with the rails and a raised position in which the adjustable plow is suspended above the rails. The sand plow system may further comprise a fixed plow disposed axially forward of the adjustable plow with respect to a longitudinal axis of the locomotive. The fixed plow may be vertically raised above the rails by a distance of less than 150 millimeters.
