Abstract: A method for converting a multimer of human serum albumin into monomers thereof comprises the step of treating the multimer with an alkaline solution. This method permits the efficient and quite simple conversion of human serum albumin multimers into monomers thereof at a low cost. A method for preventing the uncorrected holding of human serum albumin during a process for converting a multimer of human serum albumin into monomers thereof by treating the multimer with an alkaline solution, comprises the step of treating the human serum albumin-containing solution with the alkaline solution in the presence of an SH group-containing compound. This method permits the efficient inhibition of any intra-molecular or inter-molecular uncorrected holding of human serum albumin, which is specifically caused in an oxidative atmosphere during the process for preparing HSA from the plasma or the process for preparing rHSA according to the gene recombination technique. Moreover, the method likewise permits the preparation of high purity human serum albumin having a reduced content of a novel substance, which is formed through the uncorrected holding of human serum albumin and becomes a cause of side effects such as allergy observed when it is administered to a patient.

Abstract: It is customary to use signals from a motor vehicle central control in order to operate braking equipment for motor vehicles which automatically produces braking forces for states of standstill of a motor vehicle which are capable of holding a motor vehicle at a standstill. The signals which are provided by the central control are used to determine whether or not the motor vehicle is at a standstill. It is consequently also necessary to operate the central control during a state of standstill for the motor vehicle in order to produce the required braking forces. The braking equipment can no longer be operated as desired if the central control fails or malfunctions. These problems are solved by the invention, which provides standstill recognition for motor vehicles which enables braking equipment which automatically produces braking forces during standstill to be automatically controlled.
