  • Patent number: 11970709
    Abstract: The present invention provides recombinant adenoviral vectors, immunogenic compositions thereof and their uses in medicine. In particular, the present invention provides an adenoviral vector comprising the genome of an adenovirus other than AdHu5 and AdY25, wherein the genome of the adenovirus has been modified such that the vector lacks the native E4 locus of the adenovirus and comprises heterologous E4Orfl, E4Orf2 and E4Orf3 coding regions from AdY25.

  • Patent number: 10262504
    Abstract: According to the card reading device (20) for a self-service terminal comprising a intake compartment (13) for a card (11) containing data to be read, wherein the self-service terminal comprises at least one sensor (6A, 6B) and an evaluator device connected hereto and the card reading device (20) is protected against manipulation attempts by arranging at least one sensor in the card reading device (20) and at least one linearly extending sensor arrangement (6A,6B) that is attached in the intake compartment (13), wherein the evaluator device (4) checks at least one spatial dimension (1,b) of the card via the sensor arrangement (6A, 6B). Preferably the sensor system is a sensor arrangement comprising a plurality of linearly extending sensor elements that extend in a first direction (X) or a second direction (Y) in relation to the card (11) retracted into the intake compartment (13).
