  • Patent number: 12364592
    Abstract: An intraocular lens is provided which includes a single optical part, a haptic element, which is coupled to the optical part, and an optical main axis, which penetrates a front face and a rear face of the optical part, the haptic element having a first haptic part, which is in the form of a first ring and extends around the optical part, and at least one second haptic part, which is in the form of a second ring and extends around the optical part and is elastically movable relative to the first haptic part, at least one of the two rings being uneven in the peripheral direction about the optical main axis, at least one of the two rings having exactly two ring valleys and exactly two ring hills.

  • Patent number: 11358998
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a secretion-competent mutein of the ?-subunit of human Interleukin 27 and to a human heterodimeric Interleukin 27. The present invention further refers to a nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a secretion-competent mutein of the ?-subunit of human Interleukin 27 or the human heterodimeric Interleukin 27, to a host cell containing a nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a secretion-competent mutein of the ?-subunit of human Interleukin 27 or of the human heterodimeric Interleukin 27. The invention also refers to an immune modulator comprising a secretion-competent mutein of the ?-subunit of human Interleukin 27 or of the human heterodimeric Interleukin 27, to the respective use thereof as well as to a method of producing said secretion-competent muteins and to a secretion-incompetent mutein of the ?-subunit of mouse Interleukin 27 and a secretion-competent mutein of the ?-subunit of mouse Interleukin 27.

  • Patent number: 11117412
    Abstract: Lithographic printing plate precursors are prepared with a unique aluminum-containing substrate and one or more radiation-sensitive imageable layers. The aluminum-containing substrate is prepared by three separate and sequential anodizing processes to provide an inner aluminum oxide layer having an average dry thickness (Ti) of 500-1,500 nm and a multiplicity of inner pores having an average inner pore diameter (Di) larger than 0 and <15 nm. A formed middle aluminum oxide layer has a dry thickness (Tm) of 60-300 nm and a multiplicity of middle pores of average middle pore diameter (Dm) of 15-60 nm, arranged over the inner aluminum oxide layer. A formed outer aluminum oxide layer comprises a multiplicity of outer pores having an average outer pore diameter (Do) of 5-35 nm and an average dry thickness (To) of 30-150 nm, arranged over the middle aluminum oxide layer. Dm is larger than Do that is larger than Di.
