Besides the disadvantageous space-time yield, the risks of cross-contaminations and product loss grow fast with the complexity of the isolation procedure. A significant reduction of unit operations can be achieved by application of magnetic particles, especially if these are functionalized with affinity ligands. As magnetic susceptible materials are highly uncommon in biotechnological processes, target binding and selective separation of such particles from fermentation or reactions broths can be done in a single step. Since the magnetizable particles can be produced from iron salts and low priced polymers, a single-use implementation of these systems is highly conceivable. In this article, the principles of magnetizable particles, their synthesis and functionalization are explained. Furthermore, applications in the area of reaction engineering, microfluidics and downstream processing are discussed focusing on established single-use technologies and development potential.}, language = {en} } @article{AndingTabazaStaatetal.2013, author = {Anding, Ralf and Tabaza, Ruth and Staat, Manfred and Trenz, Eva and Lohmann, Philipp and Klinge, Uwe and Kirschner-Hermanns, Ruth}, title = {Introducing a method of in vitro testing of different anchoring systems used for female incontinence and prolapse surgery}, series = {BioMed research international}, volume = {Vol. 2013}, journal = {BioMed research international}, issn = {1110-7251 (E-Journal); 2314-6141 (E-Journal); 1110-7243 (Print); 2314-6133 (Print)}, pages = {Article ID 401417}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DupratDachwaldHilchenbachetal.2013, author = {Duprat, J. and Dachwald, Bernd and Hilchenbach, M. and Engrand, Cecile and Espe, C. and Feldmann, M. and Francke, Gero and G{\"o}r{\"o}g, Mark and L{\"u}sing, N. and Langenhorst, Falko}, title = {The MARVIN project: a micrometeorite harvester in Antarctic snow}, series = {44th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference}, booktitle = {44th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference}, year = {2013}, abstract = {MARVIN is an automated drilling and melting probe dedicated to collect pristine interplanetary dust particles (micrometeorites) from central Antarctica snow.}, language = {en} } @article{JungStaatMueller2013, author = {Jung, Alexander and Staat, Manfred and M{\"u}ller, Wolfram}, title = {Flight style optimization in ski jumping on normal, large, and ski flying hills}, series = {Journal of biomechanics}, volume = {Vol. 47}, journal = {Journal of biomechanics}, number = {Iss. 3}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-2380 (E-Journal); 0021-9290 (Print)}, pages = {716 -- 722}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{Laack2013, author = {Laack, Walter van}, title = {Our world is well ordered in measurement and number : or why natural constants are as they are}, series = {American Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences (AHSS)}, volume = {1}, journal = {American Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences (AHSS)}, number = {4}, issn = {2329-079X}, doi = {10.11634/232907811301390}, pages = {219 -- 221}, year = {2013}, abstract = {All the important natural constants can be logically explained with and derived from the first four ordinal numbers, 1, 2, 3 and 4, its addition to ten and finally the standard values for obviously maximal feasibility Ω and the optimum in our world, the Golden Section (GS), i.e. the number sequences 273 and 618.

Monitoring the responses of such cells to certain substrate concentrations is a challenging task and offers possibilities to gain insight into the vitality of a community influenced by the growth environment. Cell-based sensors represent a promising platform for monitoring the metabolic activity and thus, the "welfare" of relevant organisms. 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. In future, the presented setup can, therefore, be used to study substrate specificities on the enzymatic level and may as well be used to perform investigations of more complex metabolic responses. Conclusions and perspectives highlighting this system are discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{TranStaat2013, author = {Tran, Thanh Ngoc and Staat, Manfred}, title = {An Edge-Based Smoothed Finite Element Method for Primal-Dual Shakedown Analysis of Structures Under Uncertainties}, series = {Limit State of Materials and Structures : Direct Methods 2.

In this study, beta-zeolite-based adsorbent systems were examined, and their properties were compared to organic resins. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted with synthetic solutions of major polyphenols. Adsorption isotherms and desorption characteristics of individual adsorbent were determined based on these results. Maximum adsorption capacities were calculated using the Langmuir model. For example, the zeolites had capacities up to 203.2 mg/g for ferulic acid. To extend these results to a complex system, additional experiments were performed on rapeseed meal and wheat seed extracts as representative renewable resources. HPLC analysis showed that with 7.5\% w/v, which is regarded as the optimum amount of zeolites, zeolites A and B could bind 100\% of the major polyphenols as well as release polyphenols at high yields. Additionally, regeneration experiments were performed with isopropyl alcohol at 99°C to evaluate how zeolites regenerate under mild conditions. The results showed only a negligible loss of adsorption capacity and no loss of desorption capacity. In summary, it was concluded that beta-zeolites were promising adsorbents for developing new processes to isolate polyphenols from renewable resources.}, language = {en} } @article{Staat2013, author = {Staat, Manfred}, title = {Limit and shakedown analysis under uncertainty}, series = {International journal of computational methods : IJCM}, journal = {International journal of computational methods : IJCM}, publisher = {World Scientific Publishing}, address = {Singapore}, issn = {0219-8762}, pages = {Publ. online}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{SchusserMenzelBaeckeretal.2013, author = {Schusser, Sebastian and Menzel, S. and B{\"a}cker, Matthias and Leinhos, Marcel and Poghossian, Arshak and Wagner, P. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Degradation of thin poly(lactic acid) films: characterization by capacitance-voltage, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and contact-angle measurements}, series = {Electrochimica Acta}, volume = {Vol. 113}, journal = {Electrochimica Acta}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-3859 (E-Journal); 0013-4686 (Print)}, pages = {779 -- 784}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{MiciliValterOflazetal.2013, author = {Micili, Serap C. and Valter, Markus and Oflaz, Hakan and Ozogul, Candan and Linder, Peter and F{\"o}ckler, Nicole and Artmann, Gerhard and Digel, Ilya and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l}, title = {Optical coherence tomography : a potential tool to predict premature rupture of fetal membranes}, series = {Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.
