Haus M is a multi-family building composed of twenty-nine dwellings and a kindergarten. The building and its energy systems have been modelled in Modelica consid-ering a typical occupancy profile based on the habits of the tenants and questionnaires.

Stem cells and immortalized cells have considerable therapeutic potential but present risks of malignant transformation. Cell microencapsulation allows transplantation without immunosuppression. We have developed a method for microencapsulating livin

Alginate–poly- l -lysine–alginate (APA) microcapsules are currently being investigated as a means to immuno-isolate transplanted cells, but their biocompatibility is limited. In this study, we verified the hypothesis that poly- l -lysine (PLL), w

Microencapsulation in semi-permeable membranes protects transplanted cells against immune destruction. Microcapsule strength is critical. We describe a method to microencapsulate living cells in alginate-poly-L-lysine (PLL)-alginate membranes with co

A family of bull seminal plasma (BSP) phospholipid-binding proteins (BSP proteins), potentiate heparin- and HDL-induced capacitation. The homologous proteins have been purified from stallion and boar seminal plasma, and detected in low concentrations

Over the past 60 years, egg yolk (EY) has been routinely used in both liquid semen extenders and those used to cryopreserve sperm. However, the mechanism by which EY protects sperm during liquid storage or from freezing damage is unknown. Bovine semi

BSP-A1, BSP-A2, BSP-A3, and BSP-30-kDa are four major proteins of bovine seminal plasma (BSP protein family). These heparin- and phosphatidylcholine-binding proteins potentiate the capacitation of spermatozoa. Here we determined the complete sequence

Alginate, a polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweed, is widely used for the microencapsulation of islets of Langerhans, allowing their transplantation without immunosuppression. This natural polymer is known to be largely contaminated. The implan

Alginate is frequently used for cell encapsulation, but its biocompatibility is neither optimal nor reproducible. Purifying the alginate is critical for achieving a suitable biocompatibility. However, published purification methods vary in efficiency

The characteristics of the microcapsule surface, which interacts directly with the host macrophages, may have a role in the biocompatibility of alginate-poly-L-lysine (PLL)-alginate (APA) microcapsule. The objectives of the study were: 1) to develop
