A novel method for enhanced detection of hemolytic activity of gram-positive pathogenic microorganisms

Many Gram-positive bacteria such as are significant pathogens of both animals and humans. Reliable detection of hemolytic activity is a cornerstone for diagnosis of the pathogenic properties of these bacteria.
Here an improved diagnostic test that enables reliable detection of pathogenic Gram-positive bacteria by enhancing hemolytic zones on blood agar plates is presented.

We are still a far cry from a sustainable energy supply: in 2014, 71 percent of all privately-owned apartments and houses in Switzerland were heated with…

PEG-anchor: Anchor plate for the temporary fixation of hollow organs

The present invention generally applies to the fixation of hollow organs such as the stomach or the baldder to an outer structure, e.g. to the abdominal wall. The main field of application is in particular the percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) sonde.

PEG-sondes are applied by various techniques, especially by the so-called pull-through and the direct punctation (or push) technique. The latter is predominantly applied, when a stenosis of the upper gastrointestinal tract by a tumor prohibits oral access due to the consumption of space, but also due to the fact that the pull-through method is discussed in the literature to cause inoculation metastasis.

Commercial Opportunities
