Abstract: An exhaust muffler has an exhaust inlet, an exhaust outlet, as well as a catalytic converter which, in the flow direction, is disposed between the exhaust inlet and the exhaust outlet. The catalytic converter has at least one throughflow body which includes at least one wire body. At least one first component region of the throughflow body is coated with a catalytically functioning coating. The throughflow body moreover has a second component region which in terms of volume has a smaller quantity of catalytically functioning coating than the first component region.

Abstract: A mixture formation unit has a base body in which an intake channel section is formed. The intake channel section extends from a first end side of the base body to a second end side of the base body. The mixture formation unit has at least one rectilinearly extending channel which opens into the intake channel section. The channel opens at the first end side of the base body. The mixture formation unit is preferably provided for a two stroke engine whose intake channel is divided downstream of the mixture formation unit into a mixture channel and an air channel.

Abstract: A method determines a specific control parameter range of an autonomous mobile green area maintenance robot for an area to be treated having a specific shape and a specific size. A method operates an autonomous mobile green area maintenance robot on an area to be treated having a specific shape and a specific size using such a method. A system, in particular for carrying out such a method, and an autonomous mobile green area maintenance robot, are provided.

Abstract: The present invention refers to bisphosphonate and phosphonate/phosphate compounds of Formulae I and its use as inhibitors of aSMase enzyme activity.

Abstract: The invention relates to assays for assessing miRNA maturation effector (preferably: inhibitor) efficacy, and to substances useful for influencing, particularly for inhibiting, maturation of miRNA. According to the invention there is provided assay of miRNA processing inhibitor efficacy, comprising the steps of: a) providing a target miRNA precursor, b) providing a potential inhibitor of one or more processing steps of the target miRNA precursor, c) bringing together of the target miRNA precursor and the potential inhibitor under miRNA maturation conditions, and d) determining inhibition efficiency. The assay of the present invention allows for a very fast and easy assessment of the efficacy of a potential inhibitor in inhibiting processing of a miRNA precursor into miRNA.
