A food packaging system has a housing that includes a food receptacle. The food receptacle includes a food product that is available for purchase. A slot formed in the housing, and an induction heating element is positioned in the slot.

The invention relates to a device for tabletting a powdered, liquid, pasty, encapsulated or granular active ingredient composition, having a magazine which has a plurality of active ingredient containers each with an individually controllable dosing device and a nozzle for the active ingredient outlet, wherein the magazine is adjustable between a plurality of setting positions relative to at least one die chamber, wherein in each of the setting positions at least one of the nozzles faces an opening of the die chamber. A corresponding method is further described.

The present invention relates to a kit comprising: a) a bag having an outlet, the outlet being closable and openable; b) a solid and/or liquid active agent precursor; and c) means for releasing a gaseous active agent or a gaseous active agent mixture from the active agent precursor; a method for producing a gaseous active agent or a gaseous active agent mixture comprising the steps: a) providing the kit; b) providing the solid and/or liquid active ingredient precursor in the bag; and c) releasing the gaseous active ingredient or the gaseous active ingredient mixture from the solid and/or liquid active ingredient precursor with the aid of the means for releasing a gaseous active ingredient or a gaseous active ingredient mixture, and a gaseous composition obtainable by the process.

A microfluidic device for performing physical, chemical or biological treatment to at least one packet without contamination.

A molecular diagnostics apparatus which is adapted to perform DNA chain replication to one sample is provided, including a bracket, a central control module, a central control module coil, a rotational carrier, a detection module and a detection module coil. The central control module is disposed on the bracket. The central control module coil is coupled to the central control module. The rotational carrier is adapted to be rotated relative to the bracket, wherein the sample is disposed on the rotational carrier. The detection module is disposed on the rotational carrier. The detection module coil is coupled to the detection module. In a charging mode, the central control module makes the central control module coil provide an induced electromotive force. The detection module coil generates an induced current according to the induced electromotive force. The induced current is supplied to the detection module.

A method of making and using a medical delivery device includes forming a first compartment to contain at least a portion of an activator, where forming the first compartment includes forming a first wall with a first ferrous material such that the first wall disintegrates in response to first electromagnetic radiation received by the first ferrous material. Upon contact, the activator activates one or more molecular nanomachines. The method also includes forming a second compartment adjacent to the first wall of the first compartment to contain the one or more molecular nanomachines. The second compartment includes a second wall that includes a second ferrous material. The second wall is configured to disintegrate and release one or more activated molecular nanomachines into a patient in response to second electromagnetic radiation received by the second ferrous material.

Instruments, methods, and kits are disclosed for performing fast thermocycling.

A food packaging system has a housing that includes a food receptacle. The food receptacle includes a food product that is available for purchase. A slot formed in the housing, and an induction heating element is positioned in the slot.

The present invention describes a versatile, robust and environmentally controlled platform with a linear temperature gradient for massively parallel chemical or biochemical processing. This apparatus is capable of probing the phase transition behavior of macromolecules in solution, both thermodynamically and kinetically. This includes- but is not limited to- liquid/liquid phase transition behavior of antibody solutions and in situ gelation of thermo-responsive polymers. The device can be operated in a multiplex fashion using a controlled temperature gradient architecture and visualized by dark field microscopy or by other optical intensity measurements.

Provided is a safety cabinet that reduces a temperature change between a storage environment temperature and a temperature in the safety cabinet to reduce damage to cultured microorganisms, cultured cells, or the like. The safety cabinet that includes a front panel and an operation opening in front of an operation space and an operation stage below the operation space and supplies purified air into the operation space from above, in which the operation stage is provided with a temperature-regulatable portion of which a temperature is regulatable.
