Publication number: 20130115639Abstract: The invention relates to a diagnostic method to detect a salmonellae infection and/or salmonellae contamination. Fields of use include medicine, veterinary medicine and various branches of industry. The goal of the invention is to develop a reliable test to identify salmonellae. It is based on the task of designing a method that allows the earliest possible identification and covers all important serovars. The diagnostic method to detect a salmonellae infection/contamination in accordance with the invention is characterised in that the SipC of all known salmonellae serovars excreted by the salmonellae can be identified in excretions of patients/animals, carcasses, eggs and food/animal feed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2011Publication date: May 9, 2013Applicant: BIOSERV ANALYTIK UND MEDIZINPRODUKTE GMBHInventors: Udo Meyer, Alain Steinmann, Heike Fahlandt, Babette Schulz

Patent number: 7578459Abstract: A method and apparatus for comminuting particulate material by interparticle comminution in a bed of particles are disclosed. The apparatus includes a vertical roller mill with a horizontal grinding table rotating about a vertical mill axis. At least one grinding roller presses resiliently against a bed of particulate material on the grinding track and applies a compressive force. The geometry of the mill is such that the roller engages the bed of particulate material with a substantially pure rolling action. This minimizes shear forces applied to the particle bed and minimizes the reduction of fines.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2008Date of Patent: August 25, 2009Assignees: Loesche GmbH, Anglo American Research Laboratories (PTY) LtdInventors: Richard Michael Viljoen, Jan Tjeerd Smit, Udo Meyer, Carlos Felipe Lozano-Vallejos

Publication number: 20050115257Abstract: A method and system of cooling hardware, sensing hardware, and supporting code streams that enables a non-redundant liquid cooling system to be used seemlessly in conjunction with an air cooling backup solution. The result offers system speed and reliability benefits of liquid cooling except for the brief occasions when the primary cooling system has failed and air cooling takes over. Until the liquid cooling is repaired, system clocks are automatically slowed to be compatible with the circuit speeds possible at the higher temperatures associated with air cooling. When the liquid cooling is repaired, the system clocks are automatically returned to their normal fast state. Depending on the circuit technology used, a supplied voltage may be varied while being air cooled.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2003Publication date: June 2, 2005Applicant: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Gary Goth, Daniel Kearney, Kevin Low, Udo Meyer, Scott Swaney
