IML-1 and IML-2
Germany also provided national life sciences experiments for IML-1 and IML-2. Radiation and gravitational sensitivity effects were studied on both missions while IML-1 also investigated cell cultivation and bioprocessing. Specific experiments on IML-2 included DARA's Slow Rotating Centrifuge Microscope and DLR's Biostack. The German COSIMA (Crystallization of Organic Substances in Microgravity Application) experiments have flown on both Chinese FSW and Russian Resurs-F recoverable capsules. Meanwhile, DLR's EXPRESS and Kayser-Threde's Biopan facilities are designed to make microgravity research, including life sciences, more affordable and more available.
