  • Patent number: 10585088
    Abstract: Processes and compositions are described for preparing new, colloidally stable, coated nanomagnetic particles useful for both in-vitro and in-vivo biomedical applications, including cell targeting and capturing cells, microorganisms, and cellular organelles or entities such as exosomes. These nanomagnetic particles can also be used as imaging contrast agents due to their small size and high magnetic moment. The nanomagnetic particles include a series of sequentially added, stabilizing surface coatings rendered onto nano-sized magnetic crystal clusters (e.g., magnetite particles) to impart colloidal stability in complex biological samples with minimal leaching of the coating materials, high binding capacity, and low non-specific binding. Another benefit of this invention is the ability to utilize both external and internal magnetic field-generating separation devices to effect separation of the magnetic nanoparticles.

  • Patent number: 10563572
    Abstract: A charging device for an internal combustion engine, having an exhaust turbocharger and a recuperation-charger having a compressor-turbine and an electromechanical motor-generator coupled thereto. The high-pressure side of the compressor-turbine is connectable, by a valve arrangement, to the outside air supply line before the exhaust turbocharger on one side and on the other side, to the charge air supply line after the exhaust turbocharger. Outside air can be suctioned or charge air blasted via the low-pressure side of the compressor-turbine. The recuperation-charger is switched, by the valve arrangement and the motor-generator, between a standard mode, an amplifier mode and a recuperation mode, wherein the recuperation-charger operates on one side in the amplifier mode, driven by the motor-generator, as a compressor for pressure increase in the outside air supply line or, on another side, driven by the charge air flow, acts as a turbine for energy recovery by the motor-generator.
