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{MansurovDigelBiisenbaevetal.2012, author = {Mansurov, Z. and Digel, Ilya and Biisenbaev, M. and Savistkaya, I. and Kistaubaeva, A. and Akimbekov, Nuraly S. 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{SavitskayaKistaubayevaDigeletal.2017, author = {Savitskaya, I.

For the validation, the result of the model and measurements are compared based on two respective point-sets and this requires the point-sets to be registered in one coordinate system. Point-set registration is a non-convex optimization problem that has widely been solved by the ordinary iterative closest point algorithm. However, this approach necessitates a good initialization without which it easily returns a local optimum, i.e. an erroneous registration. The globally optimal iterative closest point (Go-ICP) algorithm has overcome this drawback and forms the basis for the presented open-source tool that can be used for the validation of FE models using 3D full-field measurements. The capability of the tool is demonstrated using an application example from the field of biomechanics. Methodological problems that arise in real-world data and the respective implemented solution approaches are discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{DadfarCamozziDarguzyteetal.2020, author = {Dadfar, Dryed Mohammadali and Camozzi, Denise and Darguzyte, Milita and Roemhild, Karolin and Varvar{\`a}, Paola and Metselaar, Josbert and Banala, Srinivas and Straub, Marcel and G{\"u}ver, Nihan and Engelmann, Ulrich M. and Slabu, Ioana and Buhl, Miriam and Leusen, Jan van and K{\"o}gerler, Paul and Hermanns-Sachweh, Benita and Schulz, Volkmar and Kiessling, Fabian and Lammers, Twan}, title = {Size-isolation of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles improves MRI, MPI and hyperthermia performance}, series = {Journal of Nanobiotechnology}, volume = {18}, journal = {Journal of Nanobiotechnology}, number = {Article number 22}, publisher = {Nature Portfolio}, issn = {1477-3155}, doi = {10.1186/s12951-020-0580-1}, pages = {1 -- 13}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) are extensively used for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic particle imaging (MPI), as well as for magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH).

Transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering and nanoparticle tracking analyses show that the SPION fractions obtained upon size-isolation are well-defined and almost monodisperse. MRI, MPI and MFH analyses demonstrate improved imaging and hyperthermia performance for size-isolated SPION as compared to the polydisperse starting mixture, as well as to commercial and clinically used iron oxide nanoparticle formulations, such as Resovist® and Sinerem®. The size-isolation protocol presented here may help to identify SPION with optimal properties for diagnostic, therapeutic and theranostic applications.}, language = {en} } @article{SlabuRoethEngelmannetal.2019, author = {Slabu, Ioana and Roeth, Anjali A. and Engelmann, Ulrich M. and Wiekhorst, Frank and Buhl, Eva M. and Neumann, Ulf P. and Schmitz-Rode, Thomas}, title = {Modeling of magnetoliposome uptake in human pancreatic tumor cells in vitro}, series = {Nanotechnology}, volume = {30}, journal = {Nanotechnology}, number = {18}, issn = {1361-6528}, doi = {10.1088/1361-6528/ab033e}, pages = {184004}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{EngelmannShashaTeemanetal.2019, author = {Engelmann, Ulrich M. and Shasha, Carolyn and Teeman, Eric and Slabu, Iona and Krishnan, Kannan M.}, title = {Predicting size-dependent heating efficiency of magnetic nanoparticles from experiment and stochastic N{\´e}el-Brown Langevin simulation}, series = {Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials}, volume = {471}, journal = {Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials}, number = {1}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0304-8853}, doi = {10.1016/j.jmmm.2018.09.041}, pages = {450 -- 456}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{EngelmannSeifertMuesetal.2019, author = {Engelmann, Ulrich M. and Seifert, Julian and Mues, Benedikt and Roitsch, Stefan and M{\´e}nager, Christine and Schmidt, Annette M. and Slabu, Ioana}, title = {Heating efficiency of magnetic nanoparticles decreases with gradual immobilization in hydrogels}, series = {Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials}, volume = {471}, journal = {Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials}, number = {1}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0304-8853}, doi = {10.1016/j.jmmm.2018.09.113}, pages = {486 -- 494}, year = {2019}, language = {en} }
