This work presents a new approach for the development of biosensors using tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) nanotubes or coat proteins (CPs) as enzyme nanocarriers. Sensor chips combining an array of Pt electrodes loaded with glucose oxidase (GOD)-modified TMV nanotubes or CP aggregates were used for amperometric detection of glucose as a model system for the first time. The presence of TMV nanotubes or CPs on the sensor surface allows binding of a high amount of precisely positioned enzymes without substantial loss of their activity, and may also ensure accessibility of their active centers for analyte molecules. Specific and efficient immobilization of streptavidin-conjugated GOD ([SA]-GOD) complexes on biotinylated TMV nanotubes or CPs was achieved via bioaffinity binding. These layouts were tested in parallel with glucose sensors with adsorptively immobilized [SA]-GOD, as well as [SA]-GOD crosslinked with glutardialdehyde, and came out to exhibit superior sensor performance. The achieved results underline a great potential of an integration of virus/biomolecule hybrids with electronic transducers for future applications in biosensorics and biochips.}, language = {en} } @article{HacklAndermahrStaatetal.2017, author = {Hackl, M. and Andermahr, J. and Staat, Manfred and Bremer, I. and Borggrefe, J. and Prescher, A. and M{\"u}ller, L.

However, although it is generally accepted that LAPS measurements are spatially resolved, the light-addressability feature of LAPS devices has not been discussed in detail so far. In this work, an extended electrical equivalent-circuit model of the LAPS has been presented, which takes into account possible cross-talk effects due to the capacitive coupling of the non-illuminated region. A shunting effect of the non-illuminated area on the measured photocurrent and addressability of LAPS devices has been studied. It has been shown, that the measured photocurrent will be determined not only by the local interfacial potential in the illuminated region but also by possible interfacial potential changes in the non-illuminated region, yielding cross-talk effects. These findings were supported by the experimental investigations of a penicillin-sensitive multi-spot LAPS and a metal-insulator-semiconductor LAPS as model systems.}, language = {en} } @article{Laack2017, author = {Laack, Walter van}, title = {Neurophysiologisch ist das nicht alles zu erkl{\"a}ren : Nahtoderfahrungen aus wissenschaftlicher Sicht}, series = {Der Allgemeinarzt}, volume = {38}, journal = {Der Allgemeinarzt}, number = {1}, publisher = {Universimed Deutschland GmbH}, address = {Mainz}, issn = {0172-7249}, pages = {4 -- 7}, year = {2017}, language = {de} } @article{KatzPoghossianSchoening2017, author = {Katz, Evgeny and Poghossian, Arshak and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Enzyme-based logic gates and circuits - analytical applications and interfacing with electronics}, series = {Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry}, volume = {409}, journal = {Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1618-2650}, doi = {10.1007/s00216-016-0079-7}, pages = {81 -- 94}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The paper is an overview of enzyme-based logic gates and their short circuits, with specific examples of Boolean AND and OR gates, and concatenated logic gates composed of multi-step enzyme-biocatalyzed reactions.

Despite the fact that the enzyme-based logic gates are primarily considered as components of future biomolecular computing systems, their biosensing applications are promising for immediate practical use. Analytical use of the enzyme logic systems in biomedical and forensic applications is discussed and exemplified with the logic analysis of biomarkers of various injuries, e.g., liver injury, and with analysis of biomarkers characteristic of different ethnicity found in blood samples on a crime scene. Interfacing of enzyme logic systems with modified electrodes and semiconductor devices is discussed, giving particular attention to the interfaces functionalized with signal-responsive materials.

The trigonelline species containing quarterized pyridine groups produced positive charge on the electrode surface regardless of the pH value, while the phenylboronic acid species were neutral below pH 8 and negatively charged above pH 9 (note that their pKa=8.4). The total charge on the monolayer-modified electrode was positive at the neutral pH and negative at pH > 9. Note that 4-carboxyphenylboronic acid was attached to the electrode surface in molar excess to trigonelline, thus allowing the negative charge to dominate on the electrode surface at basic pH. Negatively charged fluorescent dye-labeled insulin (insulin-FITC) was loaded on the modified electrode surface at pH 7.0 due to its electrostatic attraction to the positively charged interface. The local pH in close vicinity to the electrode surface was increased to ca. 9-10 due to consumption of H+ ions upon electrochemical reduction of oxygen proceeding at the potential of -1.0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) applied on the modified electrode. The process resulted in recharging of the electrode surface to the negative value due to the formation of the negative charge on the phenylboronic acid groups, thus resulting in the electrostatic repulsion of insulin-FITC and stimulating its release from the electrode surface. The insulin release was characterized by fluorescence spectroscopy (using the FITC-labeled insulin), by electrochemical measurements on an iridium oxide, IrOx, electrode and by mass spectrometry. The graphene-functionalized carbon fiber electrode demonstrated significant advantages in the signal-stimulated insulin release comparing with the carbon fiber electrode without the graphene species.}, language = {en} } @article{LanzlKotliar2017, author = {Lanzl, I. and Kotliar, Konstantin}, title = {K{\"o}nnen Anti-VEGF-Injektionen Glaukom oder okul{\"a}re Hypertension verursachen?}, series = {Klinische Monatsbl{\"a}tter f{\"u}r Augenheilkunde}, volume = {234}, journal = {Klinische Monatsbl{\"a}tter f{\"u}r Augenheilkunde}, number = {2}, publisher = {Thieme}, address = {Stuttgart}, issn = {0023-2165}, doi = {10.1055/s-0043-101819}, pages = {191 -- 193}, year = {2017}, language = {de} } @article{HacklWegmannKahmannetal.2017, author = {Hackl, Michael and Wegmann, Kilian and Kahmann, Stephanie Lucina and Heinze, Nicolai and Staat, Manfred and Neiss, Wolfram F. and Scaal, Martin and M{\"u}ller, Lars P.}, title = {Radial shortening osteotomy reduces radiocapitellar contact pressures while preserving valgus stability of the elbow}, series = {Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy}, volume = {25}, journal = {Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy}, number = {7}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1433-7347}, doi = {10.1007/s00167-017-4468-z}, pages = {2280 -- 2288}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{ZangeSchopenAlbrachtetal.2017, author = {Zange, Jochen and Schopen, Kathrin and Albracht, Kirsten and Gerlach, Darius A. and Frings-Meuthen, Petra and Maffiuletti, Nicola A. and Bloch, Wilhelm and Rittweger, J{\"o}rn}, title = {Using the Hephaistos orthotic device to study countermeasure effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation and dietary lupin protein supplementation, a randomised controlled trial}, series = {Plos one}, volume = {12}, journal = {Plos one}, number = {2}, doi = {10.1371/journal.pone.0171562}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchreiberKraftZuendorf2017, author = {Schreiber, Marc and Kraft, Bodo and Z{\"u}ndorf, Albert}, title = {Metrics Driven Research Collaboration: Focusing on Common Project Goals Continuously}, series = {39th International Conference on Software Engineering, May 20-28, 2017 - Buenos Aires, Argentina}, booktitle = {39th International Conference on Software Engineering, May 20-28, 2017 - Buenos Aires, Argentina}, pages = {8 Seiten}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Research collaborations provide opportunities for both practitioners and researchers: practitioners need solutions for difficult business challenges and researchers are looking for hard problems to solve and publish. Nevertheless, research collaborations carry the risk that practitioners focus on quick solutions too much and that researchers tackle theoretical problems, resulting in products which do not fulfill the project requirements. In this paper we introduce an approach extending the ideas of agile and lean software development. It helps practitioners and researchers keep track of their common research collaboration goal: a scientifically enriched software product which fulfills the needs of the practitioner's business model. This approach gives first-class status to application-oriented metrics that measure progress and success of a research collaboration continuously. Those metrics are derived from the collaboration requirements and help to focus on a commonly defined goal. An appropriate tool set evaluates and visualizes those metrics with minimal effort, and all participants will be pushed to focus on their tasks with appropriate effort. Thus project status, challenges and progress are transparent to all research collaboration members at any time.}, language = {en} }
