Abstract: Provided is a test system including at least the following: permeabilising means and/or lysis of at least one pathogen and/or at least one cell, means for capturing and/or making parts of the pathogens and/or cells, means for localising, immobilising and/or enriching at least one component of a pathogen and/or a cell, means for image processing preferably including an optical magnifying unit, enabling an optical reading out of at least one means for localising, immobilising and/or enriching can be carried out.

Abstract: A modular satellite having a plurality of electronics boxes that accommodate electrical and/or electronic modules. The electronics boxes are or can be electrically connected with one another. The satellite is provided with a basis structural panel, a docking structure disposed on the basis structural panel, and a plurality of device carrier panels that are or can be connected with the docking structure. The docking structure has first electrical connection elements for an electrical connection with the electronics boxes. The device carrier panels have mechanical connection elements for holding the electronics boxes. The respective device carrier panel is configured, at least in certain regions, so that it can be tempered by means of integrated heat sources and/or heat sinks.

Abstract: The invention relates to a test system comprising at least one of the following means: permeabilising means (110) and/or lysis of at least one pathogen (10) and/or at least one cell (10), means for capturing (80) and/or making (90) parts (20 and/or 40 and/or 50) of the pathogens (10) and/or cells (10), means for localising, immobilising and/or enriching (120) at least one component (40 and/or 50 and/or 20 and/or 10) of a pathogen (10) and/or a cell (10), means for image processing (160) preferably comprising an optical magnifying unit (161), enabling an optical reading out of at least one means for localising, immobilising and/or enriching (120) can be carried out.

Abstract: A container for effecting at least one non-lethal change in inherent properties of a non-human biological system, such as a plant or a fungus, under the influence of zero gravity, comprising a carrier plate configured to receive two capacitor plates of a plate capacitor, wherein the plates are situated parallel to one another and in each case perpendicularly on the carrier plate, at least one sample container arranged horizontally on the carrier plate, adjacent to each of the two capacitor plates and configured to receive the biological system, and an electromagnet arranged substantially half way between the capacitor plates and, when seen from the carrier plate, arranged horizontally above the at least one sample container. Additionally, a European modular cultivation system for use in the International Space Station comprises a centrifuge, wherein the container is received in the centrifuge.
