Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing a colloidal dispersion of Kraft lignin (KL) nanoparticles, said method comprising the steps of (a) providing KL; (b) dissolving said KL into a solvent, to obtain a solution having a concentration of Kraft lignin of at least 15 mg/ml; and (c) mixing said solution with an antisolvent under mixing conditions, to provide a colloidal dispersion of nanoparticles. Said method is remarkable in that the solvent used in step (b) of dissolving said KL is one or more organic solvents, and in that step (c) of mixing is performed by the addition of the solution of step (b) into an antisolvent being or comprising water. The disclosure also relates to spherical KL nanoparticles with an average diameter size ranging from 9 nm up to 70 nm. The disclosure further relates to various uses of said spherical KL nanoparticle.

Abstract: A post-discharge plasma coating device for a wired substrate comprising an inner tubular electrode on an inner tubular wall for receiving the substrate and a precursor moving axially in a working direction; an outer tubular electrode coaxial with, and surrounding, the inner tubular electrode. The inner and outer electrodes are configured to be supplied with an electrical power source for producing a plasma when a plasma gas is supplied between the electrodes and is thereby excited, the plasma excited gas flowing axially in the working direction and reacting with the precursor in a coating area at the end of the inner tubular wall in the direction. The inner tubular wall extends axially towards the coating area at least until, in various instances beyond, the end of the outer electrode, in the working direction and at least one dielectric tubular wall extends axially between the inner tubular electrode and the outer tubular electrode.

Abstract: A system for incubating one or more cells and/or organotypic cultures for biological investigation, in particular for toxicology assessment, comprising a bio-incubator and a pressure system fluidly connected with the bio-incubator. The pressure system is a cyclic gas pressure system configured for cyclically varying the gas pressure in the bio-incubator between a negative pressure and a positive pressure compared to the atmospheric pressure, so as to reproduce the pressure conditions in lungs of a living mammal. The system is remarkable in that the cyclic gas pressure system comprises a feedthrough with a pipe configured to deviate the air influx from the one or more cells and/or organotypic cultures.
