Thus, biomechanical analysis of textile devices has to include the impact of strain on stretchability and effective porosity. Prolift® and Prolift + M®, developed for tension free conditions, were tested by measuring stretchability and effective porosity applying mechanical strain. For comparison, we used Dynamesh-PR4®, which was designed for pelvic floor repair to withstand mechanical strain. Prolift® at rest showed moderate porosity with little stretchability but complete loss of effective porosity at strain of 4.9 N/cm. Prolift + M® revealed an increased porosity at rest, but at strain showed high stretchability, with subsequent loss of effective porosity at strain of 2.5 N/cm. Dynamesh PR4® preserved its high porosity even under strain, but as consequence of limited stretchability. Though in tension free conditions Prolift® and Prolift + M® can be considered as large pore class I meshes, application of mechanical strain rapidly lead to collapse of pores. The loss of porosity at mechanical stress can be prevented by constructions with high structural stability. Assessment of porosity under strain was found helpful to define requirements for pelvic floor devices. Clinical studies have to prove whether devices with high porosity as well as high structural stability can improve the patients' outcome.}, language = {en} } @article{HaselgruberMautnerThiele2010, author = {Haselgruber, Nikolaus and Mautner, Karin and Thiele, Jan}, title = {Usage Space Analysis for Reliability Testing}, series = {Quality and Reliability Engineering International}, volume = {26}, journal = {Quality and Reliability Engineering International}, number = {8}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {New York}, issn = {1099-1638}, doi = {10.1002/qre.1155}, pages = {877 -- 885}, year = {2010}, abstract = {During the development process of a complex technical product, one widely used and important technique is accelerated testing where the applied stress on a component is chosen to exceed the reference stress, i.e. the stress encountered in field operation, in order to reduce the time to failure. For that, the reference stress has to be known. Since a complex technical product may fail regarding numerous failure modes, stress in general is highly dimensional rather than scalar. In addition, customers use their products individually, i.e. field operation should be described by a distribution rather than by one scalar stress value. In this paper, a way to span the customer usage space is shown. It allows the identification of worst case reference stress profiles in significantly reduced dimensions with minimal loss of information. The application example shows that even for a complex product like a combustion engine, stress information can be compressed significantly. With low measurement effort it turned out that only three reference stress cycles were sufficient to cover a broad range of customer stress variety.}, language = {en} } @article{OehlschlaegerQuettingAlvarezetal.2009, author = {{\"O}hlschl{\"a}ger, Peter and Quetting, Michael and Alvarez, Gerardo and D{\"u}rst, Matthias and Gissmann, Lutz and Kaufmann, Andreas M.}, title = {Enhancement of immunogenicity of a therapeutic cervical cancer DNA-based vaccine by co-application of sequence-optimized genetic adjuvants}, series = {International Journal of Cancer}, volume = {125}, journal = {International Journal of Cancer}, number = {1}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {1097-0215}, pages = {189 -- 198}, year = {2009}, language = {en} } @article{OosterhuisOehlschlaegerBergetal.2011, author = {Oosterhuis, Koen and {\"O}hlschl{\"a}ger, Peter and Berg, Joost H. van den and Toebes, Mireille and Gomez, Raquel and Schumacher, Ton N. and Haanen, John B.}, title = {Preclinical development of highly effective and safe DNA vaccines directed against HPV 16 E6 and E7}, series = {International Journal of Cancer}, volume = {129}, journal = {International Journal of Cancer}, number = {2}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {1097-0215}, pages = {397 -- 406}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{OehlschlaegerSpiesAlvarezetal.2011, author = {{\"O}hlschl{\"a}ger, Peter and Spies, Elmar and Alvarez, Gerardo and Quetting, Michael and Groettrup, Marcus}, title = {The combination of TLR-9 adjuvantation and electroporation-mediated delivery enhances in vivo antitumor responses after vaccination with HPV-16 E7 encoding DNA}, series = {International Journal of Cancer. 128 (2011), H. 2}, journal = {International Journal of Cancer. 128 (2011), H. 2}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {1097-0215}, pages = {473 -- 481}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{LeursMezoOehlschlaegeretal.2012, author = {Leurs, Ulrike and Mezo, Gabor and {\"O}hlschl{\"a}ger, Peter and Orban, Erika and Marquard, Andrea and Manea, Marilena}, title = {Design, synthesis, in vitro stability and cytostatic effect of multifunctional anticancer drug-bioconjugates containing GnRH-III as a targeting moiety}, series = {Peptide Science}, volume = {98}, journal = {Peptide Science}, number = {1}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {New York, NY}, issn = {1097-0282}, doi = {10.1002/bip.21640}, pages = {1 -- 10}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Bioconjugates containing the GnRH-III hormone decapeptide as a targeting moiety are able to deliver chemotherapeutic agents specifically to cancer cells expressing GnRH receptors, thereby increasing their local efficacy while limiting the peripheral toxicity. However, the number of GnRH receptors on cancer cells is limited and they desensitize under continuous hormone treatment. A possible approach to increase the receptor mediated tumor targeting and consequently the cytostatic effect of the bioconjugates would be the attachment of more than one chemotherapeutic agent to one GnRH-III molecule. Here we report on the design, synthesis and biochemical characterization of multifunctional bioconjugates containing GnRH-III as a targeting moiety and daunorubicin as a chemotherapeutic agent. Two different drug design approaches were pursued. The first one was based on the bifunctional [4Lys]-GnRH-III (Glp-His-Trp-Lys-His-Asp-Trp-Lys-Pro-Gly-NH2) containing two lysine residues in positions 4 and 8, whose ϵ-amino groups were used for the coupling of daunorubicin. In the second drug design, the native GnRH-III (Glp-His-Trp-Ser-His-Asp-Trp-Lys-Pro-Gly-NH2) was used as a scaffold; an additional lysine residue was coupled to the ϵ-amino group of 8Lys in order to generate two free amino groups available for conjugation of daunorubicin. The in vitro stability/degradation of all synthesized compounds was investigated in human serum, as well as in the presence of rat liver lysosomal homogenate. Their cellular uptake was determined on human breast cancer cells and the cytostatic effect was evaluated on human breast, colon and prostate cancer cell lines. Compared with a monofunctional compound, both drug design approaches resulted in multifunctional bioconjugates with increased cytostatic effect.}, language = {en} } @article{PieperKlein2010, author = {Pieper, Martin and Klein, Peter}, title = {Numerical solution of the heat equation with non-linear, time derivative-dependent source term}, series = {International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering}, volume = {84}, journal = {International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering}, number = {10}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Chichester}, issn = {0029-5981}, doi = {10.1002/nme.2937}, pages = {1205 -- 1221}, year = {2010}, abstract = {The mathematical modeling of heat conduction with adsorption effects in coated metal structures yields the heat equation with piecewise smooth coefficients and a new kind of source term. This term is special, because it is non-linear and furthermore depends on a time derivative. In our approach we reformulated this as a new problem for the usual heat equation, without source term but with a new non-linear coefficient. We gave an existence and uniqueness proof for the weak solution of the reformulated problem. To obtain a numerical solution, we developed a semi-implicit and a fully implicit finite volume method. We compared these two methods theoretically as well as numerically. Finally, as practical application, we simulated the heat conduction in coated aluminum fibers with adsorption in the zeolite coating.

Blends of oligomeric and commercial PVAc show single glass transition temperatures which decrease with higher oligomer content and exhibit small negative deviations from Fox' linear additivity rule. This indicates plasticization and miscibility being mainly due to entropic effects.

Laser desorption/ionization (LDI) mass spectrometry facilitated successful examinations of NOM, as humic and fulvic acids in NOM are readily ionized by the nitrogen laser. In this study, hydrophobic NOMs (HPO NOMs) from river, reservoir and waste water were characterized by this technique. The effect of analytical variables like concentration, solvent composition and laser energy was investigated. The exact masses of small molecular NOM moieties in the range of 200-1200 m/z were determined in reflectron mode. In addition, spectra of post-source-decay experiments in this range showed that some compounds from different natural NOMs had the same fragmental ions. In the large mass range of 1200-15 000 Da, macromolecules and their aggregates were found in HPO NOMs from natural waters. Highly humic HPO exhibited mass peaks larger than 8000 Da. On the other hand, the waste water and reservoir water mainly had relatively smaller molecules of about 2000 Da. The LDI-MS measurements indicated that highly humic river waters were able to form large aggregates and membrane foulants, while the HPO NOMs from waste water and reservoir water were unlikely to form large aggregates.
