This year again people are suffering from severe natural disasters. Where tidal waves, earthquakes or severe storms wreak havoc in towns, villages and…
pH-biosensors based on compounds with pH-sensitive enolic groups for magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy and their uses. Possible medical applications for pH imaging with this new pH sensor are extremely numerous since many pathologies cause changes in pH. Good examples are tumors, inflammation and ischemia. Furthermore, the application as a very precise pH sensor for in vitro NMR-spectroscopy is possible, e.g. for response-to-treatment monitoring of treatments applied to cell lines.

With their broad field of application in basic research, diagnostics and therapy, antibodies represent one of the most important groups of proteins in biotechnology. However, due to their complex folding and assembly, industrial production of antibodies is costly. Consequently, improving antibody properties is of high commercial interest. The present technology here improves antibody´s biophysical properties by introducing two intra-molecular modifications in the antibody structure. This results in an significantlyenhancedstabilityandsecretion.
