Abstract: The invention relates to an application unit (10) for an agricultural application machine for applying granular material to an agriculturally used area (N), comprising a granular material portioning device (12) into which a granular material flow conveying bulk granular material can be introduced and by means of which portions (P) of granular material can be created from the granular material flow, the application unit (10) being equipped with an air separator (30) that allows air to be separated from the granular material flow.

Abstract: The invention relates to antibodies against SIRP? that are suitable for use in anti-cancer therapy. The invention also relates to the use of the anti-SIRP? antibodies in the treatment of human solid tumours and haematological malignancies, optionally in combination with other anti-cancer therapies.

Abstract: A method to operate an apparatus for feeding liquid metal to an evaporator device in a vacuum chamber, wherein the feed tube runs from a container adapted to contain a liquid metal to the evaporator device and wherein an electromagnetic pump is provided in the feed tube and a valve in the feed tube between the electromagnetic pump and the evaporator device. An at least partially gas permeable electromagnetic pump, which is enclosed in a pressure controlled enclosure, is used in the method wherein electromagnetic pump and the pressure controlled enclosure are controlled such that filling and draining of the evaporator device and feed tube can be done without affecting the vacuum pressure in the vacuum chamber.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies against SIRP? that are suitable for use in anti-cancer therapy. The invention further relates to the use of the anti-SIRP? antibodies in the treatment of human solid tumours and haematological malignancies, optionally in combination with other anti-cancer therapeutics. The anti-SIRPalpha antibodies described are more specific than known anti-SIRPalpha antibodies, whereas they show excellent affinity for both SIRPalpha1 and SIRPalphaBIT. In one embodiment the anti-SIRPalpha antibodies do not bind to SIRPgamma. In a second embodiment, the anti-SIRPalpha antibodies do not bind to SIRPgamma and do not bind to SIRPbeta1v1. In a third embodiment, the anti-SIRPalpha antibodies do not bind to SIRPgamma and do not bind to SIRPeta1v2. In a fourth embodiment, the anti-SIRPalpha antibodies do not bind to SIRPbeta1v1.

Abstract: A method to control the temperature of an electromagnetic pump in an apparatus wherein a liquid metal is supplied through a feed tube from a container adapted to contain a liquid metal to an evaporator device in a vacuum chamber, wherein the temperature of the electromagnetic pump is controlled by controlling one or more of the force exerted on the liquid metal in the container, the current of the electromagnetic pump, and/or the strength of the magnet field of the electromagnetic pump.

Abstract: An apparatus for feeding liquid metal to an evaporator device in a vacuum chamber, wherein the apparatus includes a container adapted to contain a liquid metal, a feed tube from the closed container to the evaporator device and an electromagnetic pump provided in the feed tube, and wherein the electromagnetic pump is placed in a vacuum enclosure.

Abstract: Described are a system and method for monitoring pre-prepared meals which can be assembled as a plurality of portions. Assembled pre-prepared meals can be monitored starting from their assembly up to the ultimate consumption. Pre-prepared meals are arranged on tray-like containers and a data carrier is fastened which contains meal-specific data. These meal-specific data can be read out at at least two reading stations to be able to keep a record of the conditions of manufacture, storage and/or cooling.

Abstract: A consumer unit (7) for converting inductively transmitted electric power. The device comprises at least one secondary coil (5) for accepting power from a alternating electromagnetic field. The secondary coil (5) is electrically connected to at least one consumer in which the electric power is converted. The consumer unit (7) is designed as a replaceable module for an induction furnace (25).
