A method and a system is disclosed for the modulation of various characteristics of probiotic cells and for the production of probiotics having altered characteristics. Such altered characteristics include increased resistance to various stresses, drugs and chemical agents, as well as aggregation. Such a method and a system are useful for the production of probiotics with altered characteristics, which may for example provide health benefits when present in the gastrointestinal tract of an animal.

A system utilizing cell immobilization in anaerobic continuous-flow cultures for modelling the gastrointestinal system is described. Microbial cells derived from flora, e.g. in fresh faecal samples, are used as the source of inocula for immobilisation in a mixed gel of gellan and xanthan. The beads produced are then introduced in a single or multi-stage chemostat fed with a nutrient media, and the composition and metabolic activities of the flora are monitored over time in reactors operated with conditions simulating the characteristics of different segments of the gastrointestinal tract. The conditions of this intestinal fermentation model are more akin to that for the gastrointestinal system, in which cells are naturally in the immobilized state, entrapped in fibrous particles or forming biofilms on the intestine epithelium. A use of such a system for studying various aspects of the gastrointestinal tract is also described.

The invention relates to a mixture comprising by weight, to give a total of 100%, 99-10% a polyamide block and polyether block copolymer (A) predominately consisting of lauryl lactam radicals, 1-99% at least on type of polymer (B) selected from polyamides other than polyamide 12, copolyamides which do not consist of the lauryl lactam radicals and the polyamide block and polyether block copolymers whose polyamide blocks do not predominantly consist of the lauryl lactam radicals. The articles, for example, films, foils, strings and tubes made from the inventive mixture are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to thermoplastic polyesters, which comprise, by weight: (i) a thermoplastic polyester; (ii) an impact modifier comprising: (a) a core-shell copolymer (A); (b) an ethylene copolymer (B) chosen from ethylene-unsaturated carboxylic acid anhydride copolymers (B1), ethylene-unsaturated epoxide copolymers (B2) and blends thereof; (iii) the (B)/(A) ratio being between 40/60 and 10/90 for proportions of impact modifier between 18 and 40% in 82 to 60% of polyester, respectively; (iv) the (B)/(A) ratio being between 40/60 and 25/75 for proportions of impact modifier between 2 and 18% in 98 to 82% of polyester, respectively. It is particularly useful for PET and PBT.
摘要:
Mutacin are bactericidal substances of proteinaceous natures produced by Streptococcus mutans. Lantibiotics are antibacterial substances containing posttranslationnally modified amino acids such as lanthionine. The present invention teaches a simple method of purifying mutacin B-Ny266 from Streptococcus mutans strain Ny266 to homogeneity. The present invention further teaches the primary amino acid sequence of mutacin B-Ny266 as well as its proposed modified structure. Further, the present invention teaches compositions comprising mutacin B-Ny266 as well as methods for the treatment and/or prophylaxy of bacterial infections comprising an administration of a suitable dose of composition comprising mutacin B-Ny266.
摘要:
A structure made of a fluoropolymer layer and directly attached to one of its sides a tie layer based on a polyamide which results from the condensation of at least one diacid and at least one diamine of the following formula (1): in which R1 represents H or -Z1-NH2 and Z1 represents an alkyl, a cycloalkyl or an aryl having up to 15 carbon atoms and R2 represents H or -Z2-NH2 and Z2 represents an alkyl, a cycloalkyl or an aryl having up to 15 carbon atoms, it being possible for R1 and R2 to be identical or different. The tie resin may also be a copolymer having polyamide blocks and polyether blocks, the polyamide blocks resulting from condensation of at least one diacid and at least one diamine of formula (1). The invention also relates to a structure comprising a fluoropolymer layer, the tie layer and a substrate layer, respectively, as well as to a structure comprising a tie layer, respectively. This structure may be placed between two substrate layers and may be in the form of a sheet, film, profile or tube. It is particularly useful in the form of a tube for transporting gasoline between the tank and the injection device in motor-vehicle engines.
摘要:
A multilayer structure based on polyamides, comprising: a first layer (1) formed from a polyamide P1 or from a blend of a polyamide P1 and a polyolefin PO1 having a P1 polyamide matrix, optionally, a layer (2a) formed from EVOH; a layer (2) formed from a blend of PA-6/12 copolyamides, one comprising by weight more 6 than 12 and the other more 12 than 6; a layer (3) formed from a polyamide P3, it being possible for P1 and P3 to be identical or different, the layers (1), (2), (2a) and (3) being successive and adhering to one another in their respective contact regions.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a multilayer structure comprising a transparent polyamide-based layer and a layer based on a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). The invention also relates to a decorated article consisting of an object to which the above structure has been bonded, the polyamide layer being on the outside. According to another embodiment, the polyamide/TPU structures may be bonded to a polyurethane foam or to a polyurethane resin. It is also possible to overmould the polyurethane foam or the polyurethane resin to the polyamide/TPU structure placed in a mould, the polyamide layer being adjacent to the mould wall. The structure obtained is useful, for example for making skis or sports shoes. The invention also relates to these structures. Advantageously, the polyamide layer is semicrystalline. Advantageously, the TPU layer is transparent. Each of the layers may be formed from several layers.
