A method of unambiguous identification and authentication of products for the purpose of better recognition of product forgeries and controlling product piracy, including applying to/into the product an identification substance admixture which contains paramagnetic phases or identifying a product which contains an identification substance admixture containing paramagnetic phases and has an ESR fingerprint spectrum that permits unambiguous identification of the product. Such an ESR fingerprint spectrum is easily measurable, but can be copied or forged only with difficulty. The method relates to an individualizable 'femto tag' for femto ledgers and forms an important interface for what are known as “Internet of Things” (IOT).

Unique identification and authentication of products

The present invention is directed to bioresorbable polymers to be used as bone and tissue adhesives. The present invention is also directed to the synthesis of bioresorbable polymeric molecules bearing adhesive moieties and the use of such compounds in methods to glue and stabilize fractured bones and damaged tissues. The present invention is also directed to the use of such compounds as adhesive sealants for applications in wound care. The present invention is also directed to the use of such compounds as biodegradable ink for applications in tissue engineering and 3D printing. The present invention also relates to the use of such compounds as drug delivery platforms.

Biodegradable bone glue

The present invention is directed to bioresorbable polymer blend compositions with tunable mechanical properties for manufacturing medical devices. These blends are multicomponent blends, comprise multiple polymer components and may or may not require additives in the form of fibers or particles for the potential enhancement of mechanical and/or biological properties.

Biodegradable polymer blends for manufacturing medical devices

The present invention comprises a polymer and/or polymer composite based sleeve to be fitted between an extended body, such the neck, trunnion, and/or stem of a hip implant, and a receiving body, such as a femoral head in a hip implant, that reduces wear, decreases toxic material from wear debris, enhances the mechanical connection of the extension and receiving body, reduces or eliminates impingement with receiving body, delocalize stress concentrations, and may also serve as a modifying junction between an extension and receiving body of unmatched size. The polymeric based sleeve presently disclosed comprises an inert and/or biologically favorable material which may be used in its virgin form or contain biocompatible additives. In order to best match patient and implant requirements, modifications may be made in the length, thickness, composition, as well as the presence of a taper, or lack thereof, in order to be compatible with existing devices.

Polymer sleeve for inhibiting stem wear and improving taper-lock in modular and non-modular orthopedic implants and the fabrication and processing thereof

A body has multiple phases, which have different electron spin resonance spectra that do not result from the simple combination of the ESR spectra of each individual phase.

Masking and subsequently visualising ESR signals using the combination of two materials

The present invention relates to a hydantoinase having an amino acid sequence selected from (i) or (ii), with (i) amino acid sequence selected from SEQ ID NO: 6-20 and SEQ ID NO: 73-119 (ii) amino acid sequence wherein in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 6-20 and SEQ ID NO: 73-119, 1 to 75 amino acid residues have been substituted, deleted, inserted and/or added, and wherein further the catalytic activity of the hydantoinase is higher by a factor of at least 1.2 than the catalytic activity of the hydantoinase having amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 1. The present invention further relates to a process for preparing amino acids, wherein said hydantoinase is used.

The present invention relates to a hydantoinase having an amino acid sequence selected from (i) or (ii), with (i) amino acid sequence selected from SEQ ID NO: 6-20 and SEQ ID NO: 73-119 (ii) amino acid sequence wherein in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 6-20 and SEQ ID NO: 73-119, 1 to 75 amino acid residues have been substituted, deleted, inserted and/or added, and wherein further the catalytic activity of the hydantoinase is higher by a factor of at least 1.2 than the catalytic activity of the hydantoinase having amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 1, The present invention further relates to a process for preparing amino acids, wherein said hydantoinase is used.

The present invention refers to a method for the preparation of 2-keto carboxylic acid having the general formula R&#x2014;CO&#x2014;COOH, wherein Ris a branched alkyl group having 3 to 7 carbon atoms, or a salt thereof, comprising a fermentation step wherein a microorganism is grown in a culture medium in order to provide a culture broth containing 2-keto carboxylic acid or a salt thereof.

Method for the preparation of 2-keto carboxylic acid

The present invention relates to a cell, which has been genetically modified relative to its wild type, so that in comparison with its wild type it is able to produce more &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acids, more &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acid esters or more lactams derived from &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acids, starting from carboxylic acids or carboxylic acid esters. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for the production of a genetically modified cell, the cells obtainable by this method, a method for the production of &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acids, of &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acid esters or of lactams derived from &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acids, the &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acids, &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acid esters or lactams derived from &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acids obtainable by this method, a method for the production of polyamides based on &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acids or based on lactams and the polyamides obtainable by this method.

&#x3c9;-Aminocarboxylic acids, &#x3c9;-aminocarboxylic acid esters, or recombinant cells which produce lactams thereof

A process for integrated utilization of the energy and material contents of hydrolysates and solids obtained in the enzymatic hydrolysis of renewable raw materials, in which the resulting hydrolysis solution is used as a carbon source in fermentations and the unhydrolysed solids are sent to biogas production.
