The addressing is achieved by a modulated and focused light source illuminating the semiconductor and generating a concentration-depending photocurrent. This work introduces a LAPS set-up that is able to monitor the electrical impedance in addition to the photocurrent. The impedance spectra of a LAPS structure, with and without illumination, as well as the frequency behaviour of the LAPS measurement are investigated. The measurements are supported by electrical equivalent circuits to explain the impedance and the LAPS-frequency behaviour. The work investigates the influence of different parameters on the frequency behaviour of the LAPS. Furthermore, the phase shift of the photocurrent, the influence of the surface potential as well as the changes of the sensor impedance will be discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{PoghossianWeilCherstvyetal.2013, author = {Poghossian, Arshak and Weil, M. and Cherstvy, A.

The PEMs were deposited directly onto the SiO2 surface without any precursor layer or drying procedures. Anionic poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) and cationic weak polyelectrolyte poly(allylamine hydrochloride) have been chosen as a model system. The effect of the ionic strength of the solution, polyelectrolyte concentration, number and polarity of the PE layers on the characteristics of the PEM-modified EIS sensors have been studied by means of capacitance-voltage and constant-capacitance methods. In addition, the thickness, surface morphology, roughness and wettabilityof the PE mono- and multilayers have been characterised by ellipsometry, atomic force microscopy and water contact-angle methods, respectively. To explain potential oscillations on the gate surface and signal behaviour of the capacitive field-effect EIS sensor modified with a PEM, a simplified electrostatic model that takes into account the reduced electrostatic screening of PE charges by mobile ions within the PEM has been proposed and discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{SchusserLeinhosBaeckeretal.2013, author = {Schusser, Sebastian and Leinhos, Marcel and B{\"a}cker, Matthias and Poghossian, Arshak and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Impedance spectroscopy: A tool for real-time in situ monitoring of the degradation of biopolymers}, series = {Physica Status Solidi (A)}, volume = {210}, journal = {Physica Status Solidi (A)}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1521-396X ; 0031-8965}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201200941}, pages = {905 -- 910}, year = {2013}, abstract = {Investigation of the degradation kinetics of biodegradable polymers is essential for the development of implantable biomedical devices with predicted biodegradability.

PDLLA films were deposited on the sensor structure from a polymer solution by using the spin-coating method. The degradation kinetics of PDLLA films have been studied in alkaline solutions of pH 9 and 12 by means of an impedance spectroscopy (IS) method. Any changes in a polymer capacitance/resistance induced by water uptake and/or polymer degradation will modulate the global impedance of the polymer-covered sensor that can be used as an indicator of the polymer degradation. The degradation rate can be evaluated from the time-dependent impedance spectra. As expected, a faster degradation has been observed for PDLLA films exposed to pH 12 solution.}, language = {en} } @article{HuckSchiffelsHerreraetal.2013, author = {Huck, Christina and Schiffels, Johannes and Herrera, Cony N. and Schelden, Maximilian and Selmer, Thorsten and Poghossian, Arshak and Baumann, Marcus and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Metabolic responses of Escherichia coli upon glucose pulses captured by a capacitive field-effect sensor}, series = {Physica Status Solidi (A)}, volume = {210}, journal = {Physica Status Solidi (A)}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {0031-8965}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201200900}, pages = {926 -- 931}, year = {2013}, abstract = {Living cells are complex biological systems transforming metabolites taken up from the surrounding medium.

In the present study, metabolic responses of the model bacterium Escherichia coli in suspension, layered onto a capacitive field-effect structure, were examined to pulses of glucose in the concentration range between 0.05 and 2 mM. It was found that acidification of the surrounding medium takes place immediately after glucose addition and follows Michaelis-Menten kinetic behavior as a function of the glucose concentration.

These sensors are built up in form of a differential set-up of a catalytically active and passive temperature-sensitive structure. Although, various types of catalytically active dispersions have been studied, the passivation layer has to be established and therefore, chemically as well as physically characterised. In the present work, fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP), perfluoralkoxy (PFA) and epoxy-based SU-8 photoresist as temperature-stable polymeric materials have been investigated for sensor passivation in terms of their chemical inertness against H₂O₂, their hygroscopic properties as well as their morphology. The polymeric materials were deposited via spin-coating on the temperature-sensitive structure, wherein spin-coated FEP and PFA show slight agglomerates. However, they possess a low absorption of humidity due to their hydrophobic surface, whereas the SU-8 layer has a closed surface but shows a slightly higher absorption of water.

The conventional chemical imaging system based on the light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS), however, required a long time to obtain a chemical image, due to the slow mechanical scan of a single light beam. For high-speed imaging, a plurality of light beams modulated at different frequencies can be employed to measure the ion concentrations simultaneously at different locations on the sensor plate by frequency division multiplex (FDM). However, the conventional measurement geometry of back-side illumination limited the bandwidth of the modulation frequency required for FDM measurement, because of the low-pass filtering characteristics of carrier diffusion in the Si substrate. In this study, a high-speed chemical imaging system based on front-side-illuminated LAPS was developed, which achieved high-speed spatiotemporal recording of pH change at a rate of 70 frames per second.}, language = {en} } @article{IkenAhlbornGerlachetal.2013, author = {Iken, Heiko and Ahlborn, K. and Gerlach, F. and Vonau, W. and Zander, W. and Schubert, J. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Development of redox glasses and subsequent processing by means of pulsed laser deposition for realizing silicon-based thin-film sensors}, series = {Electrochimica acta}, journal = {Electrochimica acta}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-3859 (E-Journal); 0013-4686 (Print)}, pages = {Available online 30.8.2013}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{KraemerBongaertsBovenbergetal.2003, author = {Kr{\"a}mer, Marco and Bongaerts, Johannes and Bovenberg, Roel and Kremer, Susanne and M{\"u}ller, Ulrike and Orf, Sonja and Wubbolts, Marcel and Raeven, Leon}, title = {Metabolic engineering for microbial production of shikimic acid}, series = {Metabolic engineering}, volume = {Vol. 5}, journal = {Metabolic engineering}, number = {Iss. 4}, issn = {1096-7184 (E-Journal); 1096-7176 (Print)}, pages = {277 -- 283}, year = {2003}, language = {en} } @article{PolenKraemerBongaertsetal.2005, author = {Polen, T. and Kr{\"a}mer, Marco and Bongaerts, Johannes and Wubbolts, Marcel and Wendisch, V.

These strains can efficiently secrete proteins into the culture medium using the general secretion (Sec) pathway. A characteristic feature of all secreted proteins is their N-terminal signal peptides, which are recognized by the secretion machinery. Here, we have studied the production of an industrially important secreted protease, namely, subtilisin BPN′ from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. One hundred seventy-three signal peptides originating from B. subtilis and 220 signal peptides from the B. licheniformis type strain were fused to this secretion target and expressed in B. subtilis, and the resulting library was analyzed by high-throughput screening for extracellular proteolytic activity. We have identified a number of signal peptides originating from both organisms which produced significantly increased yield of the secreted protease. Interestingly, we observed that levels of extracellular protease were improved not only in B. subtilis, which was used as the screening host, but also in two different B. licheniformis strains. To date, it is impossible to predict which signal peptide will result in better secretion and thus an improved yield of a given extracellular target protein. Our data show that screening a library consisting of homologous and heterologous signal peptides fused to a target protein can identify more-effective signal peptides, resulting in improved protein export not only in the original screening host but also in different production strains.}, language = {en} } @article{DeppeBongaertsO'Connelletal.2011, author = {Deppe, Veronika Maria and Bongaerts, Johannes and O'Connell, Timothy and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and Meinhardt, Friedhelm}, title = {Enzymatic deglycation of Amadori products in bacteria}, series = {Applied microbiology and biotechnology}, volume = {Vol. 90}, journal = {Applied microbiology and biotechnology}, number = {Iss. 2}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1432-0614 (E-Journal); 0171-1741 (Print); 0175-7598 (Print); 0340-2118 (Print)}, pages = {399 -- 406}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{DeppeKlatteBongaertsetal.2011, author = {Deppe, Veronika Maria and Klatte, Stephanie and Bongaerts, Johannes and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and O'Connell, Timothy and Meinhardt, Friedhelm}, title = {Genetic control of Amadori product degradation in Bacillus subtilis via regulation of frlBONMD expression by FrlR}, series = {Applied and environmental microbiology}, volume = {Vol. 77}, journal = {Applied and environmental microbiology}, number = {No. 9}, publisher = {American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)}, address = {New York}, issn = {1098-5336 (E-Journal); 0003-6919 (Print); 0099-2240 (Print)}, pages = {2839 -- 2846}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{BongaertsEsserLorbachetal.2011, author = {Bongaerts, Johannes and Esser, Simon and Lorbach, Volker and Al-Momani, L{\´o}ay and M{\"u}ller, Michael A. and Franke, Dirk and Grondal, Christoph and Kurutsch, Anja and Bujnicki, Robert and Takors, Ralf and Raeven, Leon and Wubbolts, Marcel and Bovenberg, Roel and Nieger, Martin and Sch{\"u}rmann, Melanie and Trachtmann, Natalie and Kozak, Stefan and Sprenger, Georg A. and M{\"u}ller, Michael}, title = {Diversity-oriented production of metabolites derived from chorismate and their use in organic synthesis}, series = {Angewandte Chemie International Edition}, volume = {Vol. 50}, journal = {Angewandte Chemie International Edition}, number = {Iss. 34}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1521-3773 (E-Journal); 0570-0833 (Print); 1433-7851 (Print)}, pages = {7781 -- 7786}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{BorgmeierBongaertsMeinhardt2012, author = {Borgmeier, Claudia and Bongaerts, Johannes and Meinhardt, Friedhelm}, title = {Genetic analysis of the Bacillus licheniformis degSU operon and the impact of regulatory mutations on protease production}, series = {Journal of biotechnology}, volume = {159}, journal = {Journal of biotechnology}, number = {1-2}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-4863 (E-Journal); 0168-1656 (Print)}, doi = {10.1016/j.jbiotec.2012.02.011}, pages = {12 -- 20}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Disruption experiments targeted at the Bacillus licheniformis degSU operon and GFP-reporter analysis provided evidence for promoter activity immediately upstream of degU. pMutin mediated concomitant introduction of the degU32 allele - known to cause hypersecretion in Bacillus subtilis - resulted in a marked increase in protease activity. Application of 5-fluorouracil based counterselection through establishment of a phosphoribosyltransferase deficient Δupp strain eventually facilitated the marker-free introduction of degU32 leading to further protease enhancement achieving levels as for hypersecreting wild strains in which degU was overexpressed. Surprisingly, deletion of rapG - known to interfere with DegU DNA-binding in B. subtilis - did not enhance protease production neither in the wild type nor in the degU32 strain. The combination of degU32 and Δupp counterselection in the type strain is not only equally effective as in hypersecreting wild strains with respect to protease production but furthermore facilitates genetic strain improvement aiming at biological containment and effectiveness of biotechnological processes.}, language = {en} } @article{ScheeleOertelBongaertsetal.2013, author = {Scheele, Sandra and Oertel, Dan and Bongaerts, Johannes and Evers, Stefan and Hellmuth, Hendrik and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and Bott, Michael and Freudl, Roland}, title = {Secretory production of an FAD cofactor-containing cytosolic enzyme (sorbitol-xylitol oxidase from Streptomyces coelicolor) using the twin-arginine translocation (Tat) pathway of Corynebacterium glutamicum}, series = {Microbial biotechnology}, journal = {Microbial biotechnology}, publisher = {Wiley-Blackwell}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {1751-7915}, pages = {202 -- 206}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{WilmingBegemannKuhneetal.2013, author = {Wilming, Anja and Begemann, Jens and Kuhne, Stefan and Regestein, Lars and Bongaerts, Johannes and Evers, Stefan and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and B{\"u}chs, Jochen}, title = {Metabolic studies of γ-polyglutamic acid production in Bacillus licheniformis by small-scale continuous cultivations}, series = {Biochemical engineering journal}, volume = {Vol. 73}, journal = {Biochemical engineering journal}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-295X (E-Journal); 1369-703X (Print)}, pages = {29 -- 37}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{VoigtSchroeterJuergenetal.2013, author = {Voigt, Birgit and Schroeter, Rebecca and J{\"u}rgen, Britta and Albrecht, Dirk and Evers, Stefan and Bongaerts, Johannes and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and Schweder, Thomas and Hecker, Michael}, title = {The response of Bacillus licheniformis to heat and ethanol stress and the role of the SigB regulon}, series = {Proteomics}, volume = {Vol. 13}, journal = {Proteomics}, number = {Iss. 14}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1615-9861 (E-Journal); 1615-9853 (Print)}, pages = {2140 -- 2146}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{RachingerBauchStrittmatteretal.2013, author = {Rachinger, Michael and Bauch, Melanie and Strittmatter, Axel and Bongaerts, Johannes and Evers, Stefan and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and Daniel, Rolf and Liebl, Wolfgang and Liesegang, Heiko and Ehrenreich, Armin}, title = {Size unlimited markerless deletions by a transconjugative plasmid-system in Bacillus licheniformis}, series = {Journal of biotechnology}, volume = {Vol. 164}, journal = {Journal of biotechnology}, number = {Iss. 4}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-4863 (E-Journal); 0168-1656 (Print)}, pages = {365 -- 369}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{WiegandDietrichHerteletal.2013, author = {Wiegand, Sandra and Dietrich, Sascha and Hertel, Robert and Bongaerts, Johannes and Evers, Stefan and Volland, Sonja and Daniel, Rolf and Liesegang, Heiko}, title = {RNA-Seq of Bacillus licheniformis: active regulatory RNA features expressed within a productive fermentation}, series = {BMC genomics}, volume = {Vol. 14}, journal = {BMC genomics}, publisher = {BioMed Central}, address = {London}, issn = {1471-2164}, pages = {667}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{BandodkarMolinnusMirzaetal.2014, author = {Bandodkar, Amay J. and Molinnus, Denise and Mirza, Omar and Guinovart, Tomas and Windmiller, Joshua R. and Valdes-Ramirez, Gabriela and Andrade, Francisco J. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Wang, Joseph}, title = {Epidermal tattoo potentiometric sodium sensors with wireless signal transduction for continuous non-invasive sweat monitoring}, series = {Biosensors and bioelectronics}, volume = {54}, journal = {Biosensors and bioelectronics}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-4235 (E-Journal); 0956-5663 (Print)}, doi = {10.1016/j.bios.2013.11.039}, pages = {603 -- 609}, year = {2014}, abstract = {This article describes the fabrication, characterization and application of an epidermal temporary-transfer tattoo-based potentiometric sensor, coupled with a miniaturized wearable wireless transceiver, for real-time monitoring of sodium in the human perspiration. Sodium excreted during perspiration is an excellent marker for electrolyte imbalance and provides valuable information regarding an individual's physical and mental wellbeing. The realization of the new skin-worn non-invasive tattoo-like sensing device has been realized by amalgamating several state-of-the-art thick film, laser printing, solid-state potentiometry, fluidics and wireless technologies. The resulting tattoo-based potentiometric sodium sensor displays a rapid near-Nernstian response with negligible carryover effects, and good resiliency against various mechanical deformations experienced by the human epidermis. On-body testing of the tattoo sensor coupled to a wireless transceiver during exercise activity demonstrated its ability to continuously monitor sweat sodium dynamics. The real-time sweat sodium concentration was transmitted wirelessly via a body-worn transceiver from the sodium tattoo sensor to a notebook while the subjects perspired on a stationary cycle. The favorable analytical performance along with the wearable nature of the wireless transceiver makes the new epidermal potentiometric sensing system attractive for continuous monitoring the sodium dynamics in human perspiration during diverse activities relevant to the healthcare, fitness, military, healthcare and skin-care domains.}, language = {en} } @article{ReisertGeisslerFloerkeetal.2013, author = {Reisert, Steffen and Geissler, Hanno and Fl{\"o}rke, Rudolf and Weiler, Christian and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Characterisation of aseptic sterilisation processes using an electronic nose}, series = {International journal of nanotechnology}, volume = {Vol. 10}, journal = {International journal of nanotechnology}, number = {No. 5-7}, publisher = {Inderscience Enterprises}, address = {Gen{\`e}ve}, issn = {1475-7435 (Print) 7141-8151 (Online)}, pages = {470 -- 484}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{MiyamotoHirayamaWagneretal.2013, author = {Miyamoto, Ko-ichiro and Hirayama, Yuji and Wagner, Torsten and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo}, title = {Visualization of enzymatic reaction in a microfluidic channel using chemical imaging sensor}, series = {Electrochimica acta}, journal = {Electrochimica acta}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-3859 (E-Journal); 0013-4686 (Print)}, pages = {Publ. online}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @misc{IngebrandtWagnerSchoening2013, author = {Ingebrandt, Sven and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Engineering of functional interfaces / guest eds.

Both in its varied natural habitats and in industrial settings, B. licheniformis cells will be exposed to increases in the external osmolarity, conditions that trigger water efflux, impair turgor, cause the cessation of growth, and negatively affect the productivity of cell factories in biotechnological processes. We have taken here both systems-wide and targeted physiological approaches to unravel the core of the osmostress responses of B. licheniformis. Cells were suddenly subjected to an osmotic upshift of considerable magnitude (with 1 M NaCl), and their transcriptional profile was then recorded in a time-resolved fashion on a genome-wide scale. A bioinformatics cluster analysis was used to group the osmotically up-regulated genes into categories that are functionally associated with the synthesis and import of osmostress-relieving compounds (compatible solutes), the SigB-controlled general stress response, and genes whose functional annotation suggests that salt stress triggers secondary oxidative stress responses in B. licheniformis. The data set focusing on the transcriptional profile of B. licheniformis was enriched by proteomics aimed at identifying those proteins that were accumulated by the cells through increased biosynthesis in response to osmotic stress. Furthermore, these global approaches were augmented by a set of experiments that addressed the synthesis of the compatible solutes proline and glycine betaine and assessed the growth-enhancing effects of various osmoprotectants. Combined, our data provide a blueprint of the cellular adjustment processes of B. licheniformis to both sudden and sustained osmotic stress.}, language = {en} } @article{LeinhosSchusserBaeckeretal.2014, author = {Leinhos, Marcel and Schusser, Sebastian and B{\"a}cker, Matthias and Poghossian, Arshak and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Micromachined multi-parameter sensor chip for the control of polymer-degradation medium}, series = {Physica Status Solidi (A) : special issue on engineering and functional interfaces}, volume = {211}, journal = {Physica Status Solidi (A) : special issue on engineering and functional interfaces}, number = {6}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1521-396X (E-Journal); 1862-6319 (E-Journal); 0031-8965 (Print); 1862-6300 (Print)}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201330364}, pages = {1346 -- 1351}, year = {2014}, abstract = {It is well known that the degradation environment can strongly influence the biodegradability and kinetics of biodegradation processes of polymers.

The first step in the fermentation is a CoA-transfer to β-alanine. Subsequently, the resulting β-alanyl-CoA is deaminated by the enzyme β-alanyl-CoA:ammonia lyase (Acl) to reversibly form ammonia and acrylyl-CoA. We have determined the crystal structure of Acl in its apo-form at a resolution of 0.97 {\AA} as well as in complex with CoA at a resolution of 1.59 {\AA}. The structures reveal that the enyzme belongs to a superfamily of proteins exhibiting a so called "hot dog fold" which is characterized by a five-stranded antiparallel β-sheet with a long α-helix packed against it. The functional unit of all "hot dog fold" proteins is a homodimer containing two equivalent substrate binding sites which are established by the dimer interface. In the case of Acl, three functional dimers combine to a homohexamer strongly resembling the homohexamer formed by YciA-like acyl-CoA thioesterases.

In this work, the idea of facilitating the device-level simulation, instead of using an equivalent-circuit model, is presented for detailed analysis and optimization of the performance of the LAPS. Both carrier distribution and photocurrent response have been simulated to provide new insight into both amplitude-mode and phase-mode operations of the LAPS.

Several strains displayed protease activity on agar plates containing skim milk but were inactive in liquid media. Encapsulation of cells in alginate beads induced protease production. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia emerged as best performer under washing conditions. For identification of wash-active proteases, four extracellular serine proteases called StmPr1, StmPr2, StmPr3 and StmPr4 were cloned. StmPr2 and StmPr4 were sufficiently overexpressed in E. coli. Expression of StmPr1 and StmPr3 resulted in unprocessed, insoluble protein. Truncation of most of the C-terminal domain which has been identified by enzyme modeling succeeded in expression of soluble, active StmPr1 but failed in case of StmPr3. From laundry application tests StmPr2 turned out to be a highly wash-active protease at 45 °C. Specific activity of StmPr2 determined with suc-l-Ala-l-Ala-l-Pro-l-Phe-p-nitroanilide as the substrate was 17 ± 2 U/mg.

Attempts to efficiently express the enzyme in common expression hosts had failed. This study reports on the realization of overexpression in Escherichia coli after structural modification of HP70. Modelling of HP70 resulted in a two-domain structure, comprising the catalytic domain and a C-terminal domain which includes about 100 amino acids. On the basis of the modelled structure the enzyme was truncated by deletion of most of the C-terminal domain yielding HP70-C477. This structural modification allowed effective expression of active enzyme using E. coli BL21-Gold as the host. Specific activity of HP70-C477 determined with suc-l-Ala-l-Ala-l-Pro-l-Phe-p-nitroanilide as the substrate was 30 ± 5 U/mg compared to 8 ± 1 U/mg of the native enzyme. HP70-C477 was most active at 40 °C and pH 7-11; these conditions are prerequisite for a potential application as detergent enzyme. Determination of kinetic parameters at 40 °C and pH = 9.5 resulted in KM = 0.23 ± 0.01 mM and kcat = 167.5 ± 3.6 s⁻¹. MS-analysis of peptide fragments obtained from incubation of HP70 and HP70-C477 with insulin B indicated that the C-terminal domain influences the cleavage preferences of the enzyme. Washing experiments confirmed the high potential of HP70-C477 as detergent protease.}, language = {en} }
