Abstract: The invention relates to a triggering control device for occupant restraint systems in a vehicle whose triggering readiness can be influenced as a function of collision-relevant parameters. According to the invention, collision parameter detection comprises object detection, which can detect a collision object before a collision occurs in an area near the vehicle, and can determine at least a relative speed. Whenever a collision object is detected, a signal generator delivers a collision parameter signal that depends on the relative speed determined. In a preferred embodiment the collision parameter detection unit also determines the intrinsic speed of the vehicle and whenever no collision object is detected, the signal generator supplies a collision parameter signal influenced by the intrinsic speed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for obtaining .alpha.-2-SB-glycoprotein from physiological solutions thereof by binding to a bindable protein immobilized on an insoluble carrier, wherein the carrier-fixed protein is subsequently washed with a buffer solution of pH 6 to 8.5 and thereafter the .alpha.-2-SB-glycoprotein is eluted with a buffer solution with a pH of 9 or more and isolated from the eluate.
