  • Patent number: 9730458
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of an enzymatic method for treating flour, semolina and protein extracts derived from cereals known to stimulate a pathological immune response in patients affected by Celiac Disease (CD). Said treatment drastically reduces or completely eliminates the toxicity of gluten or similar products derived from other cereals. The method uses the catalytic activity of microbial transglutaminase and, in particular, its ability to bind proteins in cereal flour or semolina to an alkylated (C1-C4) derivative of lysine. After the treatment said proteins extracted from flour show a substantially lowered immuno-stimulatory activity in celiac patients T lymphocytes.

  • Patent number: 7669923
    Abstract: A seat, especially an aircraft passenger seat, has seat components such as a seat part, a seat back (3), and a shell body (5). The shell body forms at least a partially rear enclosure (9) of the seat part and the seat back (3). With an adjusting mechanism, the seat part and the seat back (3) can be adjusted in position relative to one another and relative to the rear enclosure (9). The distance between the rear enclosure and the seat back (3) is variable. A cover assembly (31, 45) bridges a distance formed by the variable distance between the seat back (3) and enclosure (9) between formed gaps.
