Abstract: A system for electrical brain stimulation including a plurality of electrodes arranged around the patient's brain (either directly or indirectly through layers of dura, skull or skin) such that axes connecting each electrode pair intersect at a predetermined focal point, and a ground-independent switching circuit configured to selectively activate and deactivate electrodes via a plurality of ground-independent switches. Electrodes are sequentially activated and deactivated.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for microstructuring a substrate. In the method according to the invention a substrate with a region to be structured is provided, and then by applying colloid spheres into this region, a colloid sphere monolayer is formed. The thus applied colloid sphere monolayer exhibits a certain geometrical symmetry. Said colloid sphere monolayer is then illuminated with a beam of spatially modulated intensity distribution synchronized to said monolayer, thereby performing mechanical structuring in said region in conformity with a desired pattern through concentrating beam intensity via near-field effect behind said colloid sphere monolayer in the propagation direction of light.

Abstract: The invention relates to toxin peptides capable of selectively inhibiting a Kv1.3 potassium channel protein. The toxin peptides of the invention are modified anuroctonus scorpion toxin peptides.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a liquid anode radiation source (10) having the ability of turning upside down. The liquid anode radiation source (10) comprises a body (12) equipped with inlet and outlet having a wall (15) limiting the anode space (17), where the outlet connected to the inlet outside the body (12) will define a continuous flow path closing through the body, the inlet has a wall limiting an internal cross-section changing towards the anode space (17), wherein the cross-section of the inlet a deflector (11) is arranged in a position free of contacting the wall, filling out the cross-section partially and movable to the direction perpendicular to the cross-section; the liquid anode material (14) arranged in the flow path; the circulation unit inserted in the flow path in such a way that it can ensure the unidirectional movement of the anode material in the flow path.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for increasing biogas production of thermophilic anaerobe systems. More closely, a biomass containing a consortium comprising polymer-degrading, acetogenic and methanogenic microorganisms is inoculated with a microorganism culture before the start of or during biogas production. Said microorganism is a thermophilic, acetogenic, hydrogen producing bacterium. As an example, Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus is applied. According to the invention production if methane containing biogas is significantly increased. The invention is useful for intensifying biogas production and thereby increasing its feasibility.

Abstract: The invention relates to a recombinant Mycobacterium bovis which expresses at least one Chlamydophila pneumoniae antigen.
