These include affecting structure and function of organs and cells, changing metabolic functions, raising body temperature, triggering the coagulation cascade, modifying hemodynamics and causing septic shock. Because of this toxicity, the removal of even minute amounts is essential for safe parenteral administration of drugs and also for septic shock patients' care. The absence of a general method for endotoxin removal from liquid interfaces urgently requires finding new methods and materials to overcome this gap. Nanostructured carbonized plant parts is a promising material that showed good adsorption properties due to its vast pore network and high surface area. The aim of this study was comparative measurement of endotoxin- and blood proteins-related adsorption rate and adsorption capacity for different carboneous materials produced at different temperatures and under different surface modifications. As a main surface modificator, positively cbarged polymer, polyethileneimine (PEl) was used. Activated carbon materials showed good adsorption properties for LPS and some proteins used in the experiments. During the batch experiments, several techniques (dust removal, autoclaving) were used and optimized for improving the material's adsorption behavior. Also, with the results obtained it was possible to differentiate the materials according to their adsorption capacity and kinetic characteristics. Modification of the surface apparently has not affected hemoglobin binding to the adsorbent's surface. Obtained adsorption isotherms can be used as a powerful tool for designing of future column-based setups for blood purification from LPS, which is especially important for septic shock treatment.}, subject = {Kohlenstofffaser}, language = {en} } @article{AkimbekovDigelOHerasetal.2014, author = {Akimbekov, N.Sh. and Digel, Ilya and O´Heras, C. and Tastambek, K.T. and Savitskaya, I.S. and Ualyeva, P.S. and Mansurov, Z.A. and Zhubanova, A.A.}, title = {Adsorption of bacterial lipopolysaccharides on carbonized rice husks obtained in the batch experiments}, series = {Experimental Biology}, volume = {60}, journal = {Experimental Biology}, number = {1/2}, publisher = {Al-Farabi Kazakh National University}, address = {Almaty}, issn = {1563-0218}, pages = {144 -- 148}, year = {2014}, abstract = {The scope of this study is the measurement of endotoxin adsorption rate for carbonized rice husk.

The study aims to develop a cocultivation system of BC and prebiotic producers to obtain BC-based composite material with prebiotic activity. In this study, pullulan (PUL) was found to stimulate the growth of the probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG better than the other microbial polysaccharides gellan and xanthan. BC/PUL biocomposite with prebiotic properties was obtained by cocultivation of Komagataeibacter xylinus and Aureobasidium pullulans, BC and PUL producers respectively, on molasses medium. The inclusion of PUL in BC is proved gravimetrically by scanning electron microscopy and by Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy.

This article describes the microbiological synthesis, modification, and characterization of the obtained BC-nanocomposites originating from symbiotic consortium Medusomyces gisevii. Two BC-modifications have been obtained: BC-Ag and BC-calcium phosphate (BC-Ca3(PO4)2). Structure and physicochemical properties of the BC and its modifications were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and infrared Fourier spectroscopy as well as by measurements of mechanical and water holding/absorbing capacities. Topographic analysis of the surface revealed multicomponent thick fibrils (150-160 nm in diameter and about 15 µm in length) constituted by 50-60 nm nanofibrils weaved into a left-hand helix. Distinctive features of Ca-phosphate-modified BC samples were (a) the presence of 500-700 nm entanglements and (b) inclusions of Ca3(PO4)2 crystals. The samples impregnated with Ag nanoparticles exhibited numerous roundish inclusions, about 110 nm in diameter. The boundaries between the organic and inorganic phases were very distinct in both cases. The Ag-modified samples also showed a prominent waving pattern in the packing of nanofibrils. The obtained BC gel films possessed water-holding capacity of about 62.35 g/g. However, the dried (to a constant mass) BC-films later exhibited a low water absorption capacity (3.82 g/g). It was found that decellularized BC samples had 2.4 times larger Young's modulus and 2.2 times greater tensile strength as compared to dehydrated native BC films. We presume that this was caused by molecular compaction of the BC structure.}, language = {en} } @article{DigelAkimbekovRogachevetal.2023, author = {Digel, Ilya and Akimbekov, Nuraly and Rogachev, Evgeniy and Pogorelova, Natalia}, title = {Bacterial cellulose produced by Medusomyces gisevii on glucose and sucrose: biosynthesis and structural properties}, series = {Cellulose}, journal = {Cellulose}, publisher = {Springer Science + Business Media}, address = {Dordrecht}, issn = {1572-882X (Online)}, doi = {10.1007/s10570-023-05592-z}, pages = {15 Seiten}, year = {2023}, abstract = {In this work, the effects of carbon sources and culture media on the production and structural properties of bacterial cellulose (BC) synthesized by Medusomyces gisevii have been studied.

Parameters of the culture media (titratable acidity, substrate conversion degree etc.) were monitored daily for 20 days of cultivation. The BC pellicles produced on different carbon sources were characterized in terms of biomass yield, crystallinity and morphology by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), atomic force microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Our results showed that Medusomyces gisevii had higher BC yields in media with sugar concentrations close to 10 g L-1 after a 18-20 days incubation period. Glucose in general lead to a higher BC yield (173 g L-1) compared to sucrose (163.5 g L-1). The BC crystallinity degree and surface roughness were higher in the samples synthetized from sucrose. Obtained FE-SEM micrographs show that the BC pellicles synthesized in the sucrose media contained densely packed tangles of cellulose fibrils whereas the BC produced in the glucose media displayed rather linear geometry of the BC fibrils without noticeable aggregates.}, language = {en} } @article{DigelTemizArtmannNishikawaetal.2005, author = {Digel, Ilya and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l and Nishikawa, K. and Cook, M.}, title = {Bactericidal effects of plasma-generated cluster ions}, series = {Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing. 43 (2005), H. 6}, journal = {Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing. 43 (2005), H. 6}, isbn = {1741-0444}, pages = {800 -- 807}, year = {2005}, language = {en} } @article{MansurovDigelBiisenbaevetal.2012, author = {Mansurov, Z. and Digel, Ilya and Biisenbaev, M. and Savistkaya, I. and Kistaubaeva, A. and Akimbekov, N. and Zhubanova, A.}, title = {Bio-composite material on the basis of carbonized rice husk in biomedicine and environmental applications}, series = {Eurasian Chemico-Technological Journal}, volume = {14}, journal = {Eurasian Chemico-Technological Journal}, number = {2}, publisher = {Institute of Combustion Problems}, address = {Almaty}, issn = {2522-4867}, doi = {10.18321/ectj105}, pages = {115 -- 131}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{AkimbekovDigelTastambeketal.2013, author = {Akimbekov, N.
