Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for promoting the adhesion of cells to a substrate to which these cells usually have no or only low affinity, wherein the adhesion of the cells to the substrate is promoted by supplying the cells with the non-muscle myosin II inhibitor Blebbistatin so as to enable the cells to attach to surfaces to which they otherwise would not have sufficient affinity. Surprisingly, supplying the cells with the inhibitor enhances the capability of these cells to attach to surfaces to which they usually have no or only low affinity, for example, PTFE (Teflon®). The invention further concerns uses of the non- muscle myosin II inhibitor Blebbistatin and devices having at least one surface which is coated with cells that have no or only low affinity to said surface.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of bicyclic amidine compounds of formula (I) as defined in the description, and the N-oxides, and salts thereof for combating harmful fungi, and also to compositions and seed comprising at least one such compound. The invention also relates to novel bicyclic amidines and processes and intermediates for preparing these compounds.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and device for cultivating attachment-dependent cells in the presence of microcarriers in a flexible cultivation container. In particular, the invention concerns a cultivation method using a flexible, scalable, disposable, substantially gas-permeable and non-liquid-permeable container for expansion of adherent cells on microcarriers. According to the invention, cultivation of the cells is accomplished under orbital shaking at 8 rpm or more than 8 rpm.
Abstract:
The invention relates to compounds of Formula (I) wherein Z, R 1-3 and A have the meaning as cited in the description and the claims. Said compounds are useful as DPP-IV inhibitors. The invention also relates to the preparation of such compounds as well as the production and use thereof as medicament.
