EMBRACE System Demonstrator

Within the EMBRACE project an advanced communications system and network was developed. It uses the DVB technology for the high-speed downlink and a novel multi-frequency TDMA system for the return link. The return link is scaleable to accommodate the variety of data rates. Emphasis was put on providing quality of service (QoS) in wireless IP networks. Site diversity is used to increase the ava...

A highly sensitive liquid chromatographic mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method for determination of pantoprazole in rat plasma using omeprazole as the internal standard (IS) was developed. Plasma samples were precipitated by acetonitrile and separated on a Zorbax SB-C18 column with gradient profile at a flow of 0.4 mL/min. Detection was carried out by SIM mode on an ion-trap LC-MS/MS system wit...
