Abstract: In a reaction chamber, which constitutes a component of a process installation for obtaining foodstuffs or foodstuff components, biological products in harvested form that are whole or in pieces are subjected to pulsed electric fields as they pass through said reaction chamber, said electric fields forming pores in the cell walls so as to irreversibly open the latter, thus making the content of the cells more easily accessible. This is achieved by electrode groups, which can be energized to a high voltage and are located in the wall of a longitudinal passage of the reactor through which the process material is moved past grounded electrodes located in an opposing longitudinal wall area. Each electrode group is connected to an electric energy accumulator such as for example, a Marx generator, by means of a switch, in order to rapidly establish electric fields of multiple directions between the charged and the grounded electrodes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a closure element band (10) comprised of a multitude of in-line closure elements (12) provided for closing tubular packs. The closure elements (12) are connected to one another with material fit in a longitudinal direction whereby forming a one-piece closure element band (10). Each closure element (12) has a clamping finger section (14) with a clamping finger (22), a clamping slot section (18) with a clamping slot (28) and a separating zone (38) for detaching the closure element (12) from the closure element band (10). The clamping finger (22) can be inserted, in a longitudinal direction, into the clamping slot (28) in order to form a closure element ring. The clamping finger (22) and the clamping slot (28) have detent elements, which enable the closure element ring to be tightened and prevents the clamping finger (22) from coming out of the clamping slot (28). The closure elements can be joined by the clamping finger and the clamping slot in order to form a ring. To this end, the closure element band material, itself, has to have a sufficient level of tensile strength so that even corrosion-resistant plastics can be chosen as the material for the closure element band.

Abstract: In the present invention, a catheter comprises a resiliently biased projection and a detector which generates a signal which varies as a function of radial displacement of the resiliently biased projection relative to the longitudinal axis of the catheter. In a preferred example, the catheter comprises a resiliently biased projection comprising one plate of a variable capacitor, wherein the capacitance varies as a function of radial displacement of the resiliently biased projection. Thus, a signal processing system electrically coupled to the variable capacitor plate may be adapted to detect changes in the capacitance of the variable capacitor. This affords a method of studying the physiology and/or morphology of a vessel wall by detecting capacitance variations between capacitor plates inserted into the vascular tissue. The present invention allows dimensional characteristics of the vascular tissue to be determined. For example, the cross-section of a vascular lumen can be measured by measuring the capacitance between the plates of the variable capacitor and relating this to the distance between the plates. If the position of one of the plates in the lumen is known, for example, being positioned against one wall of the vessel, the resiliently biased projection, comprising the other plate of the variable capacitor, can bias itself against the opposing wall. The measured capacitance is directly proportional to the distance between the plates.
