We observed that a molecular brush of double-stranded DNA grafted onto synthetic diamond surfaces does not notably affect the heat-transfer resistance at the solid-to-liquid interface. In contrast to this, molecular brushes of single-stranded DNA cause, surprisingly, a substantially higher heat-transfer resistance and behave like a thermally insulating layer. This effect can be utilized to identify ds-DNA melting temperatures via the switching from low- to high heat-transfer resistance. The melting temperatures identified with this method for different DNA duplexes (29 base pairs without and with built-in mutations) correlate nicely with data calculated by modeling. The method is fast, label-free (without the need for fluorescent or radioactive markers), allows for repetitive measurements, and can also be extended toward array formats. Reference measurements by confocal fluorescence microscopy and impedance spectroscopy confirm that the switching of heat-transfer resistance upon denaturation is indeed related to the thermal on-chip denaturation of DNA.}, language = {en} } @article{GrandeMeffertSchoenbergeretal.2012, author = {Grande, Marion and Meffert, Elisabeth and Schoenberger, Eva and Jung, Stefanie and Frauenrath, Tobias and Huber, Walter and Hussmann, Katja and Moormann, Mareike and Heim, Stefan}, title = {From a concept to a word in a syntactically complete sentence: An fMRI study on spontaneous language production in an overt picture description task}, series = {NeuroImage}, volume = {61}, journal = {NeuroImage}, number = {3}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1522-2586}, doi = {10.1016/j.neuroimage.2012.03.087}, pages = {702 -- 714}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Spontaneous language has rarely been subjected to neuroimaging studies. This study therefore introduces a newly developed method for the analysis of linguistic phenomena observed in continuous language production during fMRI. Most neuroimaging studies investigating language have so far focussed on single word or — to a smaller extent — sentence processing, mostly due to methodological considerations. Natural language production, however, is far more than the mere combination of words to larger units. Therefore, the present study aimed at relating brain activation to linguistic phenomena like word-finding difficulties or syntactic completeness in a continuous language fMRI paradigm. A picture description task with special constraints was used to provoke hesitation phenomena and speech errors. The transcribed speech sample was segmented into events of one second and each event was assigned to one category of a complex schema especially developed for this purpose. The main results were: conceptual planning engages bilateral activation of the precuneus. Successful lexical retrieval is accompanied - particularly in comparison to unsolved word-finding difficulties - by the left middle and superior temporal gyrus. Syntactic completeness is reflected in activation of the left inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) (area 44). In sum, the method has proven to be useful for investigating the neural correlates of lexical and syntactic phenomena in an overt picture description task. This opens up new prospects for the analysis of spontaneous language production during fMRI.}, language = {en} } @article{GorissenStaatLaack2012, author = {Gorissen, P. and Staat, Manfred and Laack, Walter van}, title = {Experimentelle Kraftmessungen als Beitrag zur Wirksamkeitsbeurteilung von Schienbeinschonern im Fußballsport}, series = {OUP Zeitschrift f{\"u}r die orthop{\"a}dische und unfallchirurgische Praxis}, volume = {1}, journal = {OUP Zeitschrift f{\"u}r die orthop{\"a}dische und unfallchirurgische Praxis}, number = {1}, publisher = {Deutscher {\"A}rzte-Verlag}, address = {K{\"o}ln}, issn = {2193-5785}, doi = {10.3238/oup.2012.0010-0015}, pages = {10 -- 15}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Diese Studie besch{\"a}ftigte sich mit der D{\"a}mpfungswirkung von Schienbeinschonern, wie sie beim Fußball zum Einsatz kommen.
