The wind farm aircraft beacon system also comprises a switching device for switching at least one of the aircraft beacon devices on or off on the basis of the flying object positions.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to an extracorporeal perfusion apparatus comprising an extracorporeal blood circuit for conveying blood, a filtrate circuit for conveying blood plasma, and a controller, wherein the filtrate circuit is connected to the extracorporeal blood circuit by means of a filter, wherein the filter has a sieving coefficient of 5% for substances having a molar mass of 340,000 g/mol (relative molecular mass of 340 kDa), and wherein a depletion agent comprising a first carrier having a neutral, hydrophobic surface is arranged in the filtrate circuit, wherein the perfusion apparatus comprises a dispensing means for feeding an endotoxin-binding lipopeptide into the extracorporeal blood circuit, wherein the endotoxin-binding lipopeptide is selected from the group consisting of polymyxins, polymyxin derivatives, prodrugs thereof, and a combination thereof.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of controlling a flight obstacle lighting arrangement, wherein a receiver co-operates with a switching device for the flight obstacle lighting arrangement. According to the invention it is proposed that the receiver upon receiving a first predetermined signal controls the switching device in such a way that the flight obstacle lighting arrangement is switched off.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sorption agent for removing endotoxins from a biological fluid, comprising a water-insoluble, porous carrier having a neutral hydrophobic surface wherein the surface of the carrier has an adsorptive coating made of polymyxin and albumin, wherein polymyxin and albumin are bonded to the surface of the carrier in a noncovalent manner. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a sorption agent. The sorption agent is used in extracorporeal blood purification, in particular in order to treat individuals, who have sepsis.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of controlling the flight lighting arrangement of a wind park by means of acoustic monitoring or wind park comprising one or more wind power installations, wherein the wind park has an acoustic monitoring device having a microphone arrangement, wherein the microphone arrangement records sound signals, noises or the like from the environment of the wind park and said sound signals are processed in a signal processing device connected to the microphone arrangement, wherein there is provided a switching device for switching on a flight lighting arrangement of at least one wind power installation of the wind park and the switching device is coupled to and controlled by the signal processing device so that the signal processing device causes the switching device to switch on the flight lighting arrangement if a sound signal of a flying object, for example an aircraft or a helicopter, is detected by means of the acoustic monitoring device, and/or a predetermined sound signal (for exa
