Abstract: A matrix for the cultivation of biological cells and differentiation into neuronal cells consists of a polymer base body having a structured surface with a microstructure and a nanostructure embedded therein.

Abstract: A bearing assembly for a charging apparatus. The bearing assembly comprises a bearing housing and a shaft. The bearing assembly further comprises a compressor-side bearing bushing and a turbine-side bearing bushing which together support the shaft inside a bearing bore of the bearing housing. The bearing assembly is configured to supply unequal amounts of lubricant to a compressor-side outer lubrication gap of the compressor-side bearing bushing and to a turbine-side outer lubrication gap of the turbine-side bearing bushing. The bearing assembly is further configured to supply unequal amounts of lubricant to a compressor-side inner lubrication gap of the compressor-side bearing bushing and to a turbine-side inner lubrication gap of the turbine-side bearing bushing.

The bearing assembly further comprises a compressor-side bearing bushing and a turbine-side bearing bushing which together support the shaft inside a bearing bore of the bearing housing. The compressor-side bearing bushing is configured differently than the turbine-side bearing bushing.

Abstract: Described is a vaccine composition comprising an effective amount of at least one polypeptide selected from the group of IdeSsuis, rIdeSsuis, an analogue or a fragment thereof, or a polynucleotide encoding the same. This vaccine composition is used in the prophylactic, metaphylactic or therapeutic treatment of a Streptococcus suis infections in pigs or humans.

Abstract: A device and method are provided for protection during ascent, in particular, for climbing electricity poles, trees or other high structures. The device, including a non-fixed rope that is to be carried by the ascending person, includes a retaining means for fixing the device to a fixed anchoring point in a predetermined position. A structural configuration enables the introduction of the rope into the device, fixed in the predetermined position, from below. A first redirecting means is provided by which the rope can be guided through the device on a curved path. A mechanism automatically locks off the rope when the speed of movement of the rope through the device exceeds a predetermined limit value. A second redirecting means is provided by which the rope emerging from the device can be guided out of the device in the direction of ascent. A laterally arranged flat first bearing surface is provided.
