A chip-holder for holding a micro-fluidic chip has a fixer for detachably fixing the micro-fluidic chip in the chip-holder and at least one process control device configured to support control or monitoring of a chemical process in the micro-fluidic chip, wherein the chip-holder is configured such that the process control device and the micro-fluidic chip are directly and detachably coupled when the micro-fluidic chip is fixed in the chip-holder. Such a chip-holder brings along the advantage that the micro-fluidic chip can easily be removed and exchanged while the process control device can be reused. This reduces running costs of a chemical microreactor system drastically and allows for a very flexible usage of a chemical microreactor system.

Chip-holder for a micro-fluidic chip

A vehicle interior is monitored by storage of sample signals in a memory of a computer and comparison of at least one stored sample signal with a signal picked up on a detector of sound waves from the interior of the vehicle. An identity or similarity test is conducted by the computer and an alarm device is triggered when the predetermined degree of similarity is reached to signal an incursion.

Method of monitoring a vehicle interior

The invention relates to a monitoring device for a control unit having a ety chain. In accordance with the invention, the monitoring device has a testable switching device which is provided with input and output terminals such that a monitoring loop may be set up from a plurality of testable switching devices and a sequence of digital signals can, in particular, be transmitted via this loop as a continuous signal so that a 'digital stand-by current loop' is obtained.
