The invention describes a compact device having, in a housing, a chamber which is closable by a flap, one wall of which chamber having at least one first guidance element and at least one first fixation element, as well as two spaced-apart first contact elements which are fixedly connected to electrical connectors of a generator by electrical leads. Further, the device has at least one carrier having at least one second guidance element which, when the carrier is arranged against the wall, engages the first guidance elements and aligns the carrier in a predetermined position with respect to the wall. The carrier has at least one second fixation element that is aligned to match with the at least one first fixation element upon engagement of the first and second guidance elements, such that, when the first and second guidance elements are engaged, the first and second fixation elements are aligned to match one another and can be secured to one another.

The invention relates to a flow cell having a tube piece which extends along a longitudinal axis and within which a first electrode is coaxially arranged. The tube piece is formed by a first tube section and by a second tube section and by a second electrode which is arranged between the first and the second tube sections and which is circumferentially closed, so that its inner surface forms a part of the tube piece.

The disclosure relates to variable power modular electronic systems for generating unipolar and bipolar electrical pulses and associated uses thereof. In an embodiment, such a system includes one or more pulse generators for generating electrical pulses that can be connected in series; a charging circuit for charging the pulse generators; and a controller communicatively coupled to the pulse generators and the charging circuit.

Electrochemical processes and systems for preserving perishable food are described. The process and system allow for the preservation of perishable food in the presence of water moisture, melanin, or a precursor, derivative, analog, or variant of melanin, and electromagnetic energy, such as visible or invisible light energy. There exists a need in the art for improved methods and processes for preserving perishable foods that overcome certain disadvantages associated with known methods for preserving perishable food, such as addition of preservatives, refrigeration/freezing, drying/dehydration of food, and storage under vacuum. The invention satisfies this need by providing a process and system for preserving perishable food in the presence of water moisture, electromagnetic energy, and melanin, melanin precursors, melanin derivatives, melanin analogs, or melanin variants.
