Abstract: A dynamic simulation test platform for ultra-high-speed evacuated tube magnetic levitation (maglev) transportation includes an evacuated tube having a transition section and a vacuum section, a vacuum maintaining system, a motor supporting platform, and a model train. One end of the evacuated tube is provided with a first isolation door, and the other end is closed. A second isolation door is provided inside the evacuated tube. The vacuum maintaining system is connected to the transition section and the vacuum section. The motor supporting platform is provided in the evacuated tube and extends outside the transition section. The motor supporting platform is provided with a stator winding and a permanent-magnet track. A mover and a cryogenic dewar are provided at a bottom of the model train. The cryogenic dewar is provided with a superconducting bulk. A test method using the test platform is further provided.

Abstract: There is provided yeast cell walls comprising vitamin D2. The vitamin D may be added vitamin D2 or obtained by treatment of a yeast cells walls fraction with UV light or by treatment of a yeast with UV light followed by autolysis and/or hydrolysis and separation. There is also provided uses of the yeast cell walls.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel stabilized liquid yeast preparation which contains a polyhydroxy compound, preferably glycerol, and a gum, comprising carob, guar, tragacanth, arabic or xanthan gum, preferably xanthan gum. The invention also relates to a method for producing said preparation as well as the use of the same.

Abstract: The invention concerns yeast preparations having improved antioxidant properties, characterized in that they comprises yeasts concurrently enriched in glutathione and selenium, by at least 15 mg/g of dry matter and selenium by at least 500 ppm advantageously of the order of 2000 ppm. The invention is applicable as antioxidant additives, in particular as foods or nutrients, or functional foods for humans and animals and in cosmetics.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel yeast. More specifically, a novel yeast that is enriched for Vitamin D. In one aspect, the invention comprises a yeast that retains its gassing power after UV irradiation and that can be used to produce breads and other baked products with significant levels of vitamin D, in particular Vitamin D2. The invention also relates to a method of producing a novel D2 enriched yeast as well methods of using the novel yeast of the invention.
