  • Patent number: 11945686
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to monitoring a state of a physical passenger transport system. In an aspect, monitoring includes use of an updated digital double dataset that reproduces characterizing properties of components of the physical passenger transport system in an actual configuration of the passenger transport system after assembly and installation thereof in a building, in a machine-processable manner. At least one detection device is arranged in the physical passenger transport system, which detects a load profile which is transmitted to the updated digital double dataset. A set of rules is used to convert the load profile into modified characterizing properties of virtual components. Through the monitoring, changes and change trends on the components are tracked and evaluated using the updated digital double dataset by calculations and/or by static and dynamic simulations.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for selecting an expressed sequence from a library, comprising the following steps: Each of a plurality of eukaryotic cells comprising a cell wall comprises a nucleic acid sequence member of a library, which is expressed as a target membrane protein in said eukaryotic cells. The cell wall of the cells is permeabilized. The penneabilized cells are labeled with a ligand capable of binding to the target membrane protein. The ligand bears a detectable label. A subset of the labelled cells is selected as a function of detectable label present. Finally, an expressed nucleic acid sequence is isolated from said selection of cells in an isolation step.
