Abstract: An ultrathin, porous, and mechanically stable nonwoven fabric, a method for manufacturing the fabric, and the fabric's use are described. A nonwoven fabric is described having a thickness of less than 30 ?m, which is chemically and/or thermally bonded, whose maximum tensile load in at least one direction is at least 15 N/5 cm, whose stretching in this direction at maximum tensile load is 35% at the most, and which has a porosity of at least 25%. This nonwoven fabric may be used as a separator material or as a carrier material for diaphragms.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thermally bound non-woven material containing a low-shrinkage dual-component core-sheath fiber consisting of a crystalline polyester core and a crystalline polyester sheath which has a melting point at least 10° C. lower than the core, the heat-shrinkage characteristic of said fiber being less than 10% at 170° C.

Abstract: The invention concerns plasma separation on a microliter scale. The method/system according to the invention is able to provide plasma in the range of several microliters within a very short time as it is required, for example, in modern analyses by carrier-bound test elements. Plasma separation and plasma release is carried out in two separate consecutive steps of the method using the device according to the invention such that hemolysis during plasma separation can be avoided despite an accelerated procedure. The device comprises a disposable unit in which the device is characterized by an economical and simple method of production.

Abstract: Disposable unit for single use for the analysis of biological liquids, in particular cell suspensions such as blood, urine, or sperm, with a diluent chamber (5), a sample dosage device (6), and a measuring chamber (7). The sample dosage device (6) has a dosage element (8) into which a dosage capillary (13) is integrated. The dosage element (8) is situated movably in a dosage element chamber (12) in such a manner that one opening (14) of the dosage capillary (13) is connected to a sample loading zone (17) of the disposable unit (2) when the dosage element (8) is in its first position, and when it is in its second position, the diluent chamber (5) and the measuring chamber (7) are connected to one another via the dosage capillary (13). The measuring chamber (7) has a ventilation valve (35) which is permeable to gas but impermeable to the sample liquid, so that the chamber is completely filled free of any bubbles with the liquid (36) flowing into it.
