Several major centers of massive spread of invasive plant pests have been found in urban dendroflora of this region. The degree of damage of seven most wide-spread aboriginal tree species was found to range from 21.4±1.1 to 85.4±1.8\%. In particular, the integrity of the native communities of sycamore (Platanus spp.), willow (Salix spp.), poplar (Populus spp.) and elm (Ulmus spp.) is highly endangered. Our taxonomic analysis of the most dangerous tree pests of the region has revealed them as neobiontic xylophilous insects such as Cossus cossus L. (Order: Lepidoptera L.) Monochamus urussovi Fisch., Monochamus sutor L., Acanthocinus aedelis L. and {\~N}etonia aureate L. (Order: Coleoptera L.). We relate the origin of this threatening trend with the import of industrial wood in the mid 90’s of the last century that was associated with high degree of the constructional work in the region. Because of the absence of efficient natural predators of the pest species, the application of microbiological methods of the pest control and limitation is suggested.}, language = {en} } @article{PogorelovaRogachevDigeletal.2020, author = {Pogorelova, Natalia and Rogachev, Evgeniy and Digel, Ilya and Chernigova, Svetlana and Nardin, Dmitry}, title = {Bacterial Cellulose Nanocomposites: Morphology and Mechanical Properties}, series = {Materials}, volume = {13}, journal = {Materials}, number = {12}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, isbn = {1996-1944}, doi = {10.3390/ma13122849}, pages = {1 -- 16}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a promising material for biomedical applications due to its unique properties such as high mechanical strength and biocompatibility. 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{AkimbekovQiaoDigeletal.2020, author = {Akimbekov, Nuraly S. and Qiao, Xiaohui and Digel, Ilya and Abdieva, Gulzhamal and Ualieva, Perizat and Zhubanova, Azhar}, title = {The effect of leonardite-derived amendments on soil microbiome structure and potato yield}, series = {Agriculture}, volume = {10}, journal = {Agriculture}, number = {Art. 147}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/agriculture10050147}, pages = {1 -- 17}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Humic substances originating from various organic matters can ameliorate soil properties, stimulate plant growth, and improve nutrient uptake. Due to the low calorific heating value, leonardite is rather unsuitable as fuel. However, it may serve as a potential source of humic substances. This study was aimed at characterizing the leonardite-based soil amendments and examining the effect of their application on the soil microbial community, as well as on potato growth and tuber yield. A high yield (71.1\%) of humic acid (LHA) from leonardite has been demonstrated. Parental leonardite (PL) and LHA were applied to soil prior to potato cultivation. The 16S rRNA sequencing of soil samples revealed distinct relationships between microbial community composition and the application of leonardite-based soil amendments. Potato tubers were planted in pots in greenhouse conditions. The tubers were harvested at the mature stage for the determination of growth and yield parameters. The results demonstrated that the LHA treatments had a significant effect on increasing potato growth (54.9\%) and tuber yield (66.4\%) when compared to the control. The findings highlight the importance of amending leonardite-based humic products for maintaining the biogeochemical stability of soils, for keeping their healthy microbial community structure, and for increasing the agronomic productivity of potato plants.}, language = {en} } @article{ArtmannDigelLinderetal.2008, author = {Artmann, Gerhard and Digel, Ilya and Linder, Peter and Porst, Dariusz}, title = {Mechanism of haemoglobin sensing body temperature}, series = {Tissue Engineering Part A. 14 (2008), H. 5}, journal = {Tissue Engineering Part A. 14 (2008), H. 5}, isbn = {1937-3341}, pages = {754 -- 754}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KurulganDemirciLinderDemircietal.2010, author = {Kurulgan Demirci, Eylem and Linder, Peter and Demirci, Taylan and Gierkowski, Jessica R. and Digel, Ilya and Gossmann, Matthias and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l}, title = {rhAPC reduces the endothelial cell permeability via a decrease of cellular mechanical contractile tensions : [abstract]}, year = {2010}, abstract = {In this study, the CellDrum technology quanitfying cellular mechanical tension on a pico-scale was used to investigate the effect of LPS (lipopolysaccharide) on HAoEC (Human Aortic Endothelial Cell) tension.}, subject = {Endothelzelle}, language = {en} } @article{DigelMaggakisKelemenZerlinetal.2006, author = {Digel, Ilya and Maggakis-Kelemen, Christina and Zerlin, Kay and Linder, Peter}, title = {Body temperature-related structural transitions of monotremal and human hemoglobin}, series = {Biophysical Journal. 91 (2006), H. 8}, journal = {Biophysical Journal. 91 (2006), H. 8}, isbn = {1542-0086}, pages = {3014 -- 3021}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @article{ZerlinKasischkeDigeletal.2007, author = {Zerlin, Kay and Kasischke, Nicole and Digel, Ilya and Maggakis-Kelemen, Christina and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l and Porst, Dariusz and Kayser, Peter and Linder, Peter and Artmann, Gerhard}, title = {Structural transition temperature of hemoglobins correlates with species' body temperature}, series = {European Biophysics Journal. 37 (2007), H. 1}, journal = {European Biophysics Journal. 37 (2007), H. 1}, isbn = {1432-1017}, pages = {1 -- 10}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{Digel2011, author = {Digel, Ilya}, title = {Primary thermosensory events in cells}, series = {Transient receptor potential channels / Md.
