P-PHOS – Highly Efficient Triplet Emitter for OLED Applications

Scientists of the Westfaelische-Wilhems University Muenster and Sensient developed dopants for Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLED). The tri and bi-dental platinum (II) complexes with phosphite or dianionic NNC/NNN ligands are triplet emitters with excellent quantum efficiencies.

OLEDs consist of electro-luminescent substances, embedded in a polymer matrix. To emit exzitones, an electric current, triggered energy transfer is needed. Useful electroluminescent dopants are metal complexes like platinum complexes. The quantum efficiencies depend on the electronic behavior of the ligands used.
Therefore useful and efficient substances like P-Phos are required.

GBA2 – Therapeutic use of the non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase 2

Mutations in the lysosomal enzyme ß-glucosidase 1 (GBA1) cause Gaucher’s disease, the most common lysosomal lipid storage disease in humans. When GBA1 is absent or impaired, glycosylceramide (GlcCer) accumulates within the macrophage lysosomes, leading to liver and spleen enlargement, bone lesions and in the most severe cases, impairment of central
nervous system functions.

Hot-air and Hot-steam wood composites production

Production process of wood composites combining hot air and hot steam. This reduces the production time, production line and enables the use of any current binder.

Production and Therapeutic use of active Formylglycine-Generating-Enzyme (FGE)

In a collaboration scientists from the University of Göttingen and of the University of Bielefeld developed a procedure for the production of recombinant isolated active eukaryotic full lenght C-alpha Formylglycine-Generating Enzyme (FGE) in selected eukaryotic cells for biotechnological and therapeutic uses.
