Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for purifying a defined amount of nucleic acids from a nucleic acid-containing sample, which has at least the following steps: (a.) contacting the nucleic acid-containing sample with a defined amount of a nucleic acid binding phase with the following features: (i) the nucleic acid binding phase has nucleic acid binding ligands that have at least one protonatable group; (ii) the nucleic acid binding ligands are bound to a carrier; (iii) the nucleic acid binding phase has a surface with a low charge density, wherein the amount of nucleic acids in the sample exceeds the binding capacity of the amount of nucleic acid binding phase used; (b.) binding of the nucleic acids to the nucleic acid binding phase at a pH (binding pH) that is below the pKs value of at least one of the protonatable groups; (c.) elution of the nucleic acids at a pH that is above the binding pH, wherein a defined amount of nucleic acids is obtained.

Abstract: A seating element has an archable element with a first side to face an occupant of a seat when the seating element is installed in a seat and a second side opposite of the first side. A pneumatic arching element is arranged at the second side of the archable element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for enriching phosphopeptides. Said method is characterized in that a carrier is used which carries phosphate groups and/or phosphonate groups on the surface thereof. The phosphate groups and/or phosphonate groups are functionalized with zirconium ions and are bonded to the carrier by means of linker structures which have at least one alkyl chain containing at least 5 C atoms. Also disclosed are corresponding carriers and suitable kits for enriching phosphopeptides.

Abstract: Disclosed is a seat element (1) for a seat system, which extends substantially across an entire zone of a backrest and/or a seat area of a seat in a mounted state. Said seat element (1) comprises devices (12-21) for receiving functional elements in order to provide additional seat functions. Such a modular seat system makes it possible to create in a simple manner different fittings of a seat, especially a vehicle seat.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lumbar support comprising a plurality of pneumatically operated chambers (11-14) for adjusting the curvature of a seat back, wherein the lumbar support comprises two outer chambers (11, 12) and two central chambers (13, 14) in the longitudinal direction of the seat back, wherein the two central chambers (13, 14) are arranged over one another perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the seat back between the two outer chambers, wherein each outer chamber has an air connection to one of the two central chambers.

Abstract: Lumbar support for a seat backrest, comprising a support basket (10) extending in the longitudinal direction of the seat backrest, a frame (12) to which the support basket (10) is mounted and an adjustment device (11) which changes the position of the support basket relative to the frame, the adjustment device including a plurality of adjustment members (60) some of which are movable with respect to one another.
