Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an at least partly hollow MEMS structure. In a first step one or more through-going openings is/are provided in core material. The one or more through-going openings is/are then covered by an etch-stop layer. After this step, a bottom electrically conducting layer, one or more electrically conducting vias and a top electrically conducting layer are created. The bottom layer is connected to the vias and vias are connected to the top layer. The vias are formed by filling at least one of the one or more through-going openings. The method further comprises the step of creating bottom and top conductors in the respective bottom and top layers. Finally, excess core material is removed in order to create the at least partly hollow MEMS structure which may include a MEMS inductor.

Abstract: An absorbent wound care device comprising an absorbent element and an active agent, said absorbent element having a proximal and a distal surface, wherein the active agent is positioned on the proximal surface of the absorbent element and wherein the active agent is positioned in a zone having an exact defined area covering a central portion of the absorbent element, and wherein said area of the zone covers only a portion of the proximal surface of the absorbent layer, and a method of preparing such device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel diarylurea derivatives useful as chloride channel blockers. In other aspects the invention relates to the use of these compounds in a method for therapy, such as for the treatment of bone metabolic diseases, diseases responsive to modulation of the mast cell or basophil activity, diseases responsive to inhibition of angiogenesis, or sickle cell anaemia, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention.
