Abstract: A motor vehicle has an exterior coating. A fluorescing and/or phosphorescing substance is added to the exterior coating or forms a part of the exterior coating. The fluorescing and/or phosphorescing substance serves to emit light, in particular red, green and/or blue light, in a visible range upon irradiation by light in an invisible range.

Abstract: A display device for a vehicle includes a transparent window with a light emission layer intended to separate the interior of the vehicle for emitting visible light when light is beamed onto the light emission layer, a light source for beaming light onto the window, a reflector mounted in a light path between the light source and the window to reflect the light generated by the light source and an adjustable image generator located between the light source and the reflector.

Abstract: A key for a motor vehicle includes an access module for unlocking or opening a door of the motor vehicle or for starting the motor vehicle. The key has a memory module for storing user data and a data transfer module for a wireless access to the memory module. The memory module is a rewritable memory module which can be removed by a user. A data transfer system for a motor vehicle and a method for transferring data to or from a motor vehicle are also provided.

Abstract: A display arrangement for a vehicle has, in particular, a multipurpose instrument or is configured as a multipurpose instrument. The display arrangement includes a first display device to display information concerning operation of the vehicle, a glass with adjustable transparency arranged in front of the first display device, with reference to the viewing direction of the display arrangement, and a second display device to display information concerning operation of the vehicle or additional information concerning operation of the vehicle.

Abstract: A motor vehicle has a passenger compartment with an interior covering formed with a display region. The display regions is configured to emit visible light upon irradiation thereof with light in an invisible range or an at least virtually invisible range. There is also provided a projection assembly for displaying information or images in the display region by irradiating the display region with such light in the invisible range or the at least virtually invisible range.

Abstract: This relates to filter columns for isolating nucleic acids, particularly at small elution volumes. The filter column is adapted for stable placement within the upper portion of standard plastic collection tubes of various sizes. The body of the filter column has a number of surfaces to accommodate placement within variously sized collection tubes. The filter column contains nucleic acid-specific filter which can be located at alternate regions within the filter column, providing different filter surface areas and loading volume capacities using the same column body. The filter column has an opening on an upper end adapted to be sealed by a cap. A method for recovering nucleic acids using such filter column is also provided.
