Aspects of biofilm formation, analysis and removal in aqueous solutions have been thoroughly discussed in literature. In contrast, microbial communities on air-exposed (dry) surfaces have received significantly less attention. Diverse surface sampling methods have been developed in order to address various surfaces and microbial groups, but they notoriously show poor repeatability, low recovery rates and suffer from lack of mutual consistency. Quantitative sampling for viable microorganisms represents a particular challenge, especially on porous and irregular surfaces. Therefore, it is essential to examine in depth the factors involved in microorganisms' recovery efficiency and accuracy depending on the sampling technique used. Microbial colonization, retention and community composition on different dry surfaces are very complex and rely on numerous physicochemical and biological factors. This study is devoted to analyze and review the (a) physical phenomena and intermolecular forces relevant for microbiological surface sampling; (b) challenges and problems faced by existing sampling methods for viable microorganisms and (c) current directions of engineering and research aimed at improvement of quality and efficiency of microbiological surface sampling.}, language = {en} } @article{DigelDachwaldArtmannetal.2009, author = {Digel, Ilya and Dachwald, Bernd and Artmann, Gerhard and Linder, Peter and Funke, O.}, title = {A concept of a probe for particle analysis and life detection in icy environments}, pages = {1 -- 24}, year = {2009}, language = {en} } @article{DigelDemirciTemizArtmannetal.2004, author = {Digel, Ilya and Demirci, Taylan and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l and Nishikawa, K.}, title = {Free Radical Nature of the Bactericidal Effect of Plasma-Generated Cluster Ions (PCIs)}, series = {Biomedizinische Technik. 49 (2004), H.

This thematic review focuses first on plaque formation mechanisms and then on the plaque removal effectiveness of ultrasonic toothbrushes and their potential in preventing oral diseases like periodontitis, gingivitis, and caries. We overviewed the physical effects that occurred during brushing and tried to address the question of whether ultrasonic toothbrushes effectively reduced the microbial burden by increasing the hydrodynamic forces. The results of published studies show that electric toothbrushes, which combine ultrasonic and sonic (or acoustic and mechanic) actions, may have the most promising effect on good oral health. Existing ultrasonic/sonic toothbrush models do not significantly differ regarding the removal of dental biofilm and the reduction of gingival inflammation compared with other electrically powered toothbrushes, whereas the manual toothbrushes show a lower effectiveness.}, language = {en} } @article{DigelKurulganDemirciLinderetal.2007, author = {Digel, Ilya and Kurulgan Demirci, Eylem and Linder, Peter and Kayser, Peter}, title = {Decrease in extracellular collagen crosslinking after NMR magnetic field application in skin fibroblasts}, series = {Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing. 45 (2007), H. 1}, journal = {Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing. 45 (2007), H. 1}, isbn = {1741-0444}, pages = {91 -- 97}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{DigelMaggakisKelemenZerlinetal.2006, author = {Digel, Ilya and Maggakis-Kelemen, Christina and Zerlin, Kay and Linder, Peter}, title = {Body temperature-related structural transitions of monotremal and human hemoglobin}, series = {Biophysical Journal. 91 (2006), H. 8}, journal = {Biophysical Journal. 91 (2006), H. 8}, isbn = {1542-0086}, pages = {3014 -- 3021}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @incollection{DigelMansurovBiisenbaevetal.2012, author = {Digel, Ilya and Mansurov, Zulkhair and Biisenbaev, Makhmut and Savitskaya, Irina and Kistaubaeva, Aida and Akimbekov, Nuraly and Zhubanova, Azhar}, title = {Heterogeneous Composites on the Basis of Microbial Cells and Nanostructured Carbonized Sorbents}, series = {Composites and Their Applications}, booktitle = {Composites and Their Applications}, editor = {Hu, Ning}, publisher = {Intech}, address = {London}, isbn = {978-953-51-0706-4}, doi = {10.5772/47796}, pages = {249 -- 272}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The fact that microorganisms prefer to grow on liquid/solid phase surfaces rather than in the surrounding aqueous phase was noticed long time ago [1]. Virtually any surface - animal, mineral, or vegetable - is a subject for microbial colonization and subsequent biofilm formation. It would be adequate to name just a few notorious examples on microbial colonization of contact lenses, ship hulls, petroleum pipelines, rocks in streams and all kinds of biomedical implants. The propensity of microorganisms to become surface-bound is so profound and ubiquitous that it vindicates the advantages for attached forms over their free-ranging counterparts [2]. Indeed, from ecological and evolutionary standpoints, for many microorganisms the surface-bound state means dwelling in nutritionally favorable, non-hostile environments [3]. Therefore, in most of natural and artificial ecosystems surface-associated microorganisms vastly outnumber organisms in suspension and often organize into complex communities with features that differ dramatically from those of free cells [4].}, language = {en} } @incollection{DigelSadykovTemizArtmannetal.2015, author = {Digel, Ilya and Sadykov, R. and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l and Artmann, Gerhard}, title = {Changes in intestinal microflora in rats induced by oral exposure to low lead (II) concentrations}, series = {Lead Exposure and Poisoning: Clinical Symptoms, Medical Management and Preventive Strategies}, booktitle = {Lead Exposure and Poisoning: Clinical Symptoms, Medical Management and Preventive Strategies}, publisher = {Nova Science Publ.}, isbn = {9781634826990}, pages = {75 -- 99}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{DigelTemizArtmann2011, author = {Digel, Ilya and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l}, title = {The emperor's new body : seeking for a blueprint of limb regeneration in humans}, series = {Stem cell engineering : principles and applications / Gerhard M.
