Abstract: A system, method and device are disclosed for bio-processing a feed stream and providing a constant output by operating a continuous single-pass tangential-flow process. The single-pass process provides high conversion concentration while operating at relatively low feed flow rates, and the process can also be used to provide constant output diafiltration.
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for extracting mycotoxins from grain and other food products or from feed and its subsequent quantification. Fields of application are the food industry, the animal feed industry or biotechnology. The objective of the present invention is to develop an extraction method with which it is possible to uniformly extract mycotoxins with different dissolving properties. It was found that with the aid of aqueous, buffered naphthyl and/or phenyl compounds or their heterocyclical analogues, both hydrophobic and hydrophilic mycotoxins can be extracted. The method according to the invention is characterized in that the buffered solutions of naphthyl and/or phenyl compounds and/or their heterocyclical analogues, which carry at least one sulphonic acid or at least one carbonate acid group, are brought into contact with the grain or other food products or animal feed, the aqueous solution is then separated and the content of the extracted mycotoxins in the aqueous solution is determined.

Abstract: Filtration apparatus for the assay of biological and biochemical reactants, for example, is provided and includes a substrate such as a plate having one or more wells open at each end, and a porous membrane positioned in each well forming a discrete filtering area. The filtration apparatus includes a seal that is in a compressible relationship with the face of the porous membrane, the surface of the compression element, and the well wall. Each well includes a compression element, such as an internal well insert or sleeve, which compresses the seal so that the seal contacts the membrane face, the surface of the compression element, and the well wall in a liquid-tight manner. The compression element may be configured so that it is fixed in the well such as by an interference fit with the well wall or by bonding to a surface of the substrate.
