Structural changes during biodegradation, such as an increase in brittleness or crystallinity, can be detected by carefully observing characteristic changes in DSC profiles. Until now, DSC profiles have not been used to draw quantitative conclusions about biodegradation. A new method is presented for quantifying the biodegradation using DSC data, whereby the results were validated using two reference methods. The proposed method is applied to evaluate the biodegradation of three polymeric biomaterials: polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), cellulose acetate (CA) and Organosolv lignin. The method is suitable for the precise quantification of the biodegradability of PHB. For CA and lignin, conclusions regarding their biodegradation can be drawn with lower resolutions. The proposed method is also able to quantify the biodegradation of blends or composite materials, which differentiates it from commonly used degradation detection methods.}, language = {en} } @article{EngelGemuendeHoltmannetal.2019, author = {Engel, Mareike and Gem{\"u}nde, Andre and Holtmann, Dirk and M{\"u}ller-Renno, Christine and Ziegler, Christiane and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Clostridium acetobutylicum's connecting world: cell appendage formation in bioelectrochemical systems}, series = {ChemElectroChem}, journal = {ChemElectroChem}, number = {Accepted Article}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {2196-0216}, doi = {10.1002/celc.201901656}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{Delaittre2019, author = {Delaittre, Guillaume}, title = {Telechelic Poly(2-Oxazoline)s}, series = {European Polymer Journal}, journal = {European Polymer Journal}, number = {In Press, Journal Pre-proof, 109281}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0014-3057}, doi = {10.1016/j.eurpolymj.2019.109281}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{EngelBayerHoltmannetal.2019, author = {Engel, Mareike and Bayer, Hendrik and Holtmann, Dirk and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Flavin secretion of Clostridium acetobutylicum in a bioelectrochemical system - Is an iron limitation involved?}, series = {Bioelectrochemistry}, journal = {Bioelectrochemistry}, number = {In Press, Accepted Manuscript}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1567-5394}, doi = {10.1016/j.bioelechem.2019.05.014}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{SchiffelsSelmer2019, author = {Schiffels, Johannes and Selmer, Thorsten}, title = {Combinatorial assembly of ferredoxin-linked modules in Escherichia coli yields a testing platform for Rnf-complexes}, series = {Biotechnology and Bioengineering}, journal = {Biotechnology and Bioengineering}, number = {accepted article}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, doi = {10.1002/bit.27079}, pages = {1 -- 36}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HoffmannNierenGaebetal.2019, author = {Hoffmann, Katharina and Nieren, Monika and G{\"a}b, Martina and Kasper, Anna and Elbers, Gereon}, title = {The potential of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for the environmental biomonitoring of plants}, series = {International conference on Life Sciences and Technology}, volume = {276}, booktitle = {International conference on Life Sciences and Technology}, number = {012009}, issn = {1755-1315}, doi = {10.1088/1755-1315/276/1/012009}, pages = {1 -- 3}, year = {2019}, abstract = {In the current environmental condition, the increase in pollution of the air, water, and soil indirectly will induce plants stress and decrease vegetation growth rate. These issues pay more attention to be solved by scientists worldwide. The higher level of chemical pollutants also induced the gradual changes in plants metabolism and decreased enzymatic activity. Importantly, environmental biomonitoring may play a pivotal contribution to prevent biodiversity degradation and plants stress due to pollutant exposure. Several previous studies have been done to monitor the effect of environmental changes on plants growth. Among that, Near Infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) offers an alternative way to observe the significant alteration of plant physiology caused by environmental damage related to pollution.

Here, we have investigated the temporal sequence of molecular and pathological perturbations at early stages of phenobarbital (PB) mediated liver tumor promotion in vivo. Molecular profiling (mRNA, microRNA [miRNA], DNA methylation, and proteins) of mouse liver during 13 weeks of PB treatment revealed progressive increases in hepatic expression of long noncoding RNAs and miRNAs originating from the Dlk1-Dio3 imprinted gene cluster, a locus that has recently been associated with stem cell pluripotency in mice and various neoplasms in humans. PB induction of the Dlk1-Dio3 cluster noncoding RNA (ncRNA) Meg3 was localized to glutamine synthetase-positive hypertrophic perivenous hepatocytes, sug- gesting a role for β-catenin signaling in the dysregulation of Dlk1-Dio3 ncRNAs. The carcinogenic relevance of Dlk1-Dio3 locus ncRNA induction was further supported by in vivo genetic dependence on constitutive androstane receptor and β-catenin pathways. Our data identify Dlk1-Dio3 ncRNAs as novel candidate early biomarkers for mouse liver tumor promotion and provide new opportunities for assessing the carcinogenic potential of novel compounds.}, language = {en} } @incollection{HendersonWolfScheer2009, author = {Henderson, Colin J. and Wolf, C.

A further major application is in the area of preclinical development where such models can be used to define pathways of chemical toxicity, and the pathways that regulate drug disposition. One major application of this approach is the humanisation of mice for the proteins that control drug metabolism and disposition. Such models can have numerous applications in the development of drugs and in their more sophisticated use in the clinic.}, language = {en} }
