The determination of ions in solution by means of a simple and inexpensive sensor array is, therefore, a promising task. In this work, a sensor array with heavy metal-sensitive chalcogenide glass membranes for the simultaneous detection of the four ions Ag⁺, Cu2⁺, Cd2⁺, and Pb2⁺ in solution is realized. The results of the physical characterization by means of microscopy, profilometry, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) as well as the electrochemical characterization by means of potentiometric measurements are presented.

Using novel methodology of rPWV assessment this finding was confirmed and investigated whether it might relate to the increased blood pressure usually accompanying the aging process, rather than to the aging itself. Methods: A total of 12 young 25.5-year-old (24.0-28.8) [median(1st quartile-3rd quartile)] and 12 senior 68.5-year-old (63.8-71.8) anamnestically healthy volunteers; and 12 senior 63.0-year-old (60.8-65.0) validated healthy volunteers and 12 young 33.0-year-old (29.5-35.0) hypertensive patients were examined. Time-dependent alterations of vessel diameter were assessed by the Dynamic Vessel Analyzer in a retinal artery of each subject. The data were filtered and processed using mathematical signal analysis and rPWVs were calculated. Results: rPWV amounted to 1200 (990-1470) RU (relative units)/s in the hypertensive group and to 1040 (700-2230) RU/s in anamnestically healthy seniors. These differed significantly from rPWVs in young healthy group (410 [280-500] RU/s) and in validated healthy seniors (400 [320-510] RU/s). rPWV associated with age and mean arterial pressure (MAP) in the pooled cohort excluded validated healthy seniors. In a regression model these associations remain when alternately adjusted for MAP and age. When including validated healthy seniors in the pooled cohort only association with MAP remains. Conclusions: Both aging (with not excluded cardiovascular risk factors) and mild hypertension are associated with elevated rPWV. rPWV increases to a similar extent both in young mildly hypertensive subjects and in aged anamnestically healthy persons. Healthy aging is not associated with increased rPWV.}, language = {en} } @article{KotliarNagelVilseretal.2010, author = {Kotliar, Konstantin and Nagel, Edgar and Vilser, Walthard and Seidova, Seid-Fatima and Lanzl, Ines}, title = {Microstructural alterations of retinal arterial blood column along the vessel axis in systemic hypertension}, series = {Investigative Ophthalmology \& Visual Science, IOVS}, volume = {51}, journal = {Investigative Ophthalmology \& Visual Science, IOVS}, number = {4}, publisher = {ARVO}, address = {Rockville, Md.}, issn = {0146-0404}, doi = {10.1167/iovs.09-3649}, pages = {2165 -- 2172}, year = {2010}, abstract = {Purpose: Image analysis by the retinal vessel analyzer (RVA) observes retinal vessels in their dynamic state online noninvasively along a chosen vessel segment. It has been found that high-frequency diameter changes in the retinal artery blood column along the vessel increase significantly in anamnestically healthy volunteers with increasing age and in patients with glaucoma during vascular dilation. This study was undertaken to investigate whether longitudinal sections of the retinal artery blood column are altered in systemic hypertension. Methods: Retinal arteries of 15 untreated patients with essential arterial hypertension (age, 50.9 ± 11.9 years) and of 15 age-matched anamnestically healthy volunteers were examined by RVA. After baseline assessment, a monochromatic luminance flicker (530-600 nm; 12.5 Hz; 20 s) was applied to evoke retinal vasodilation. Differences in amplitude and frequency of spatial artery blood column diameter change along segments (longitudinal arterial profiles) of 1 mm in length were measured and analyzed using Fourier transformation. Results: In the control group, average reduced power spectra (ARPS) of longitudinal arterial profiles did not differ when arteries changed from constriction to dilation. In the systemic hypertension group, ARPS during constriction, baseline, and restoration were identical and differed from ARPS during dilation (P < 0.05). Longitudinal arterial profiles in both groups showed significant dissimilitude at baseline and restoration (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The retinal artery blood column demonstrates microstructural alterations in systemic hypertension and is less irregular along the vessel axis during vessel dilation. These microstructural changes may be an indication of alterations in vessel wall rigidity, vascular endothelial function, and smooth muscle cells in this disease, leading to impaired perfusion and regulation.}, language = {en} } @article{LanzlSeidovaMaieretal.2011, author = {Lanzl, Ines M. and Seidova, Seid-Fatima and Maier, Mathias and Schmidt-Trucks{\"a}ss, Arno and Halle, Martin and Kotliar, Konstantin}, title = {Dynamic retinal vessel response to flicker in age-related macular degeneration patients before and after vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor injection}, series = {Acta Ophthalmologica}, volume = {89}, journal = {Acta Ophthalmologica}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {1755-3768}, pages = {472 -- 479}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{KotliarMaierBaueretal.2008, author = {Kotliar, Konstantin and Maier, Mathias and Bauer, Svetlana and Feucht, Nikolaus and Lohmann, Chris and Lanzl, Ines}, title = {Intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide and intraocular pressure: author's reply}, series = {Acta Ophthalmologica}, volume = {86}, journal = {Acta Ophthalmologica}, number = {6}, publisher = {-}, isbn = {1755-3768}, pages = {692 -- 693}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{KotliarNagelVilseretal.2008, author = {Kotliar, Konstantin and Nagel, Edgar and Vilser, Walthard and Lanzl, Ines M.}, title = {Functional in vivo assessment of retinal artery microirregularities in glaucoma / Kotliar, Konstantin E. ; Nagel, Edgar ; Vilser, Walthard ; Lanzl, Ines M.}, series = {Acta Ophthalmologica. 86 (2008), H. 4}, journal = {Acta Ophthalmologica. 86 (2008), H. 4}, publisher = {-}, isbn = {1755-3768}, pages = {424 -- 433}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{KotliarMaierBaueretal.2007, author = {Kotliar, Konstantin and Maier, Mathias and Bauer, Svetlana and Feucht, Nikolaus}, title = {Effect of intravitreal injections and volume changes on intraocular pressure: clinical results and biomechanical model / Kotliar, Konstantin ; Maier, Mathias ; Bauer, Svetlana ; Feucht, Nikolaus ; Lohmann, Chris ; Lanzl, Ines}, series = {Acta Ophthalmologica Scandinavica. 85 (2007), H. 7}, journal = {Acta Ophthalmologica Scandinavica. 85 (2007), H. 7}, publisher = {-}, isbn = {1755-3768}, pages = {777 -- 781}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{BohrnStuetzFuchsetal.2012, author = {Bohrn, U. and St{\"u}tz, E. and Fuchs, K. and Fleischer, M. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Wagner, P.}, title = {Monitoring of irritant gas using a whole-cell-based sensor system}, series = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical}, volume = {175}, journal = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0925-4005}, doi = {10.1016/j.snb.2012.05.088}, pages = {208 -- 217}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Cell-based sensors for the detection of gases have long been underrepresented, due to the cellular requirement of being cultured in a liquid environment.
