  • Publication number: 20220211046
    Abstract: Process for making liquid dispersion formulations comprising a) At least one type of bacterium spores, b) An aqueous continuous phase comprising at least one glycol, wherein said glycol is comprised in the formulation in a weight amount that exceeds the weight amount of water, c) optionally at least one surface active compound S, and d) Optionally further auxiliaries, B. Providing a solid powder of Bacterium spores, B1. Dispersing said spores in a continuous phase comprising at least one glycol, wherein the weight ratio of said at least one glycol to water is below or equal to 1:1, B2. Adding further glycol to the dispersion obtained in step B 1. to obtain a ratio of said at least one glycol to water from 4:1 to 1.2:1, C. Adding at least one surfactant S, D. Optionally adding at least one thickener, E. Optionally adding further auxiliaries, Wherein steps C), D) and E) can be carried out at any time during the process.

  • Publication number: 20050051570
    Abstract: The dispensing of sample liquids is performed, particularly in case of high-throughput screening, by means of automatic dosing devices. Between individual dosing processes, the standstill of the dosing device may lead to an outgassing of the sample liquid existing in the dosing device, and to crystallization. In order to improve the operational safety, it is provided according to the method of the invention that a stand-by routine is initiated after termination of a dosing process. In the stand-by routine, liquid is dispensed via a dosing orifice of the dosing device. The dispensing step is repeated after a predetermined period of time.
