It generalises the method proposed by Liao et al. (Bochev et al., 1996; Cai et al., 2004; Liao and Anderson, 1992) [4], [6], [20]. In this article, we employ the BDM as core of a new multilevel deformation method (MDM) which leads to vast improvements regarding robustness, accuracy and speed. We achieve this by splitting up the deformation process in a sequence of easier subproblems and by exploiting grid hierarchy. Being of optimal asymptotic complexity, we experience speed-ups up to a factor of 15 in our test cases compared to the BDM. This gives our MDM the potential for tackling large grids and time-dependent problems, where possibly the grid must be dynamically deformed once per time step according to the user's needs. Moreover, we elaborate on implementational aspects, in particular efficient grid searching, which is a key ingredient of the BDM.

Wie bei anderen lignocellulosehaltigen nachwachsenden Rohstoffen erfordert die Verwertung der im Gras enthaltenen Polysaccharide einen mehrstufigen Prozess aus Vorbehandlung, Hydrolyse und Fermentation. In Gräsern ist die Hemicellulose mitP henolcarbonsäuren wie Ferula- und p-Coumarsäure verestert, die die enzymatische Hydrolyse der Cellulose und Hemicellulose ebenso effektiv behindern wie Lignin. Anders als bei holzigen Rohstoffen ermöglicht dieser Aufbau aber eine enzymatische Vorbehandlung, mit der die Phenolcarbonsäuren abgespalten werden können. Da die bei der Vorbehandlung eingesetzten Enzyme in ihrer natürlichen Funktion synergistisch mit cellulytischen Enzymen zusammenarbeiten, besitzen sie ähnliche Optima wie die für die Hydrolyse der Polysaccharide eingesetzten Cellulasen und Hemicellulasen. Diese Eigenschaft ermöglicht die Integration von Vorbehandlung und Hydrolyse in einem einzigen Verfahrensschritt. Durch die Einführung der enzymatischen Vorbehandlung konnte das in der Literatur bekannte SSF-Verfahren für die Herstellung von Ethanol aus Gräsern um die Vorbehandlungsstufe erweitert werden. Das so realisierte simultaneous pretreatment, saccharification and fermentation (SPSF)-Verfahren stellt eine vollständige Integration der drei für die Nutzung von Lignocellulose nötigen Verfahrensschritte in der grünen Bioraffinerie dar.

Da diese limitiert sind, werden im Hinblick auf die Nachhaltigkeit alternative, erneuerbare Rohstoffquellen intensiv untersucht. Vielversprechend in diesem Kontext sind die in Lignocellulose enthaltenen Zucker, die beispielsweise zur Produktion von Ethanol genutzt werden können. In der Regel sind für eine Lig-nocellulose-Bioraffinerie mehrere Prozessschritte notwendig: Vorbehandlung, Verzuckerung und Fermentation. Um diesen Prozess einfacher zu gestalten, ist es möglich, die Verzuckerung und die Fermentation in einem Schritt durchzuführen (SSF). Als Substrat wird hier Cellulose-Faserstoff verwendet, der durch das Organosolv-Verfahren aufgeschlossen wurde. Die Hydrolyse erfolgt mit kommerziell erhältlichen Enzymen und für die Fermentation zu Ethanol werden zwei Hefen verwendet. Beim SSF-Verfahren konnte, im Vergleich zur entkoppelten Verfahrensweise, trotz bestehender Unterschiede in den Temperatur-Optima von Enzymen und Hefen eine Steigerung in der Ethanol-Ausbeute von 0,15 auf 0,2 gg⁻¹ beobachtet werden. Um wirtschaftliche Ausbeuten und Konzentrationen des Produkts erzielen zu können, ist es notwendig den Prozess weiter zu optimieren. Im Einzelfall muss überprüft werden, ob diese Verfahrensweise auch für die Produktion anderer interessanter Stoffe (wie Itaconsäure, Bernsteinsäure) geeignet ist.

Tonnen jährlich an. Dieses Nebenprodukt wurde trotz seines Reichtums an Milchzucker und Proteinen lange Zeit kaum industriell weiterverarbeitet und stellte ein bedeutendes Problem bei der Abwasserreinigung dar. Derzeit kommen meist kosten- und reinigungsintensive Membranfiltrationsverfahren bei der Auftrennung von Molke in ihre Hauptkomponenten Lactose und Molkenprotein zum Einsatz. Die Produkte finden vorwiegend in der Nahrungsmittelindustrie Anwendung als Süßungsmittel, Proteinzusatz oder Texturbildner. Die Mehrheit des Proteins wird dabei als Konzentrat bzw. Proteinpulver verarbeitet. Wegen der antibakteriellen, antiviralen und weiteren wertvollen physiologischen Eigenschaften der Molkeproteine stellt eine weitere Aufreinigung der einzelnen Molkeproteine für die pharmazeutische Industrie einen naheliegenden zusätzlichen Wertschöpfungsschritt dar. In Kooperation mit der Süd Chemie AG wurde damit begonnen, ein Verfahren zu entwickeln, das kostengünstige mineralische Adsorbentien verwendet. Bisher konnte die Abtrennung von Lactose von den Molkenproteinen aus verdünntem Molkekonzentrat in einem Verfahrensschritt ohne Vorbehandlung des Rohstoffs erfolgreich realisiert werden.

T1 - The balance of renewable sources and user demands in grids : power electronics for modular battery energy storage systems JF - IEEE transactions on power electronics N2 - The continuously growing amount of renewable sources starts compromising the stability of electrical grids. Contradictory to fossil fuel power plants, energy production of wind and photovoltaic (PV) energy is fluctuating. Although predictions have significantly improved, an outage of multi-MW offshore wind farms poses a challenging problem. One solution could be the integration of storage systems in the grid. After a short overview, this paper focuses on two exemplary battery storage systems, including the required power electronics. The grid integration, as well as the optimal usage of volatile energy reserves, is presented for a 5- kW PV system for home application, as well as for a 100- MW medium-voltage system, intended for wind farm usage. The efficiency and cost of topologies are investigated as a key parameter for large-scale integration of renewable power at medium- and low-voltage.

Im Gegensatz zu klassischen Adsorbermaterialien können magnetisierbare Partikel mit sehr geringen Durchmessern verwendet werden. Zur deren Abtrennung ist jedoch ein hoher Magnetfeldgradient notwendig. Dieser wird in der Regel durch in der Trennkammer bzw. dem Magnetfeld eingebrachte magnetisierbare Drähte realisiert. Bei der Auslegung der Drahtgitter ist ein Kompromiss zwischen Abtrennrate und Durchlässigkeit nötig. Die Ausrichtung der Drähte in Relation zum Magnetfeld, deren Abstand sowie die geometrische Anordnung können hierbei variiert werden. Zum Verständnis der Einflüsse auf das sich ausbildende Magnetfeld und die Fluiddynamik wurden Simulationen mit der Finite-Elemente-Methode durchgeführt und experimentell überprüft. Hierfür wurden die Drähte unter Variation von Anzahl, Richtung und Anordnung in den Hochgradient-Magnetseparator eingebracht. Erste Verifizierungen der Simulationen zeigen, dass die in Magnetfeldrichtung ausgerichteten Drähte (x-Achse) über die geringste Partikelrückhaltefähigkeit verfügen. Die Drähte der y- und z-Achse halten den größten Anteil der Magnetpartikel zurück, wobei die Drähte in y-Richtung den höchsten Feldgradienten ausbilden. Des Weiteren konnte gezeigt werden, dass eine rhomboedrische Drahtanordnung der kubischen vorzuziehen ist.

To understand how chronic drought affects tree growth and tree-ring δ13C values, we studied mature Scots pine in an irrigation experiment in an inner-Alpine valley. Tree growth and isotope analyses were carried out at the annual and seasonal scale. At the seasonal scale, maximum δ13C values were measured after the hottest and driest period of the year, and were associated with decreasing growth rates. Inter-annual δ13C values in early- and latewood showed a strong correlation with annual climatic conditions and an immediate decrease as a response to irrigation. This indicates a tight coupling between wood formation and the freshly produced assimilates for trees exposed to chronic drought. This rapid appearance of the isotopic signal is a strong indication for an immediate and direct transfer of newly synthesized assimilates for biomass production. The fast appearance and the distinct isotopic signal suggest a low availability of old stored carbohydrates. If this was a sign for C-storage depletion, an increasing mortality could be expected when stressors increase the need for carbohydrate for defence, repair or regeneration.

Insights into plant adjustments to changing environmental conditions have mainly been obtained through structural and functional comparative studies between taxa or within taxa on contrasting sites or along environmental gradients. Yet, a gap exists regarding the study of hydraulic adjustments in response to environmental changes over the lifetimes of plants. In trees, dated tree-ring series are often exploited to reconstruct dynamics in ecological conditions, and recent work in which wood-anatomical variables have been used in dendrochronology has produced promising results. Environmental signals identified in water-conducting cells carry novel information reflecting changes in regional conditions and are mostly related to short, sub-annual intervals. Although the idea of investigating environmental signals through wood anatomical time series goes back to the 1960s, it is only recently that low-cost computerized image-analysis systems have enabled increased scientific output in this field. We believe that the study of tree-ring anatomy is emerging as a promising approach in tree biology and climate change research, particularly if complemented by physiological and ecological studies. This contribution presents the rationale, the potential, and the methodological challenges of this innovative approach.

A challenge, however, is to avoid cross talk among sensing units in an array with multiple sensors located on a small area. In this letter, we describe an array of 16 sensing units of a light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS), which was made with layer-by-layer (LbL) films of a poly(amidomine) dendrimer (PAMAM) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), coated with a layer of the enzyme penicillinase. A visual inspection of the data from constant-current measurements with liquid samples containing distinct concentrations of penicillin, glucose, or a buffer indicated a possible cross talk between units that contained penicillinase and those that did not. With the use of multidimensional data projection techniques, normally employed in information visualization methods, we managed to distinguish the results from the modified LAPS, even in cases where the units were adjacent to each other. Furthermore, the plots generated with the interactive document map (IDMAP) projection technique enabled the distinction of the different concentrations of penicillin, from 5 mmol L−1 down to 0.5 mmol L−1. Data visualization also confirmed the enhanced performance of the sensing units containing carbon nanotubes, consistent with the analysis of results for LAPS sensors. The use of visual analytics, as with projection methods, may be essential to handle a large amount of data generated in multiple sensor arrays to achieve high performance in miniaturized systems Y1 - 2010 U6 - https://doi.org/10.1021/ac9024076 SN - 0003-2700 VL - 82 IS - 1 SP - 61 EP - 65 PB - ACS Publications CY - Washington ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Grottke, O.

T1 - A new model for blunt liver injuries in the swine JF - European Surgical Research N2 - Background: To elaborate the impact of new haemostatic agents we developed an instrument for the pressure-controlled induction of blunt liver injuries in a porcine animal model. Materials and Methods: A dilutional coagulopathy of 80% of animal blood volume was induced in 9 anaesthetized pigs. Animals were randomly assigned to be injured with a force of 112 Newton (N) (n = 1), 224 ± 19 N (n = 4) or 355 ± 35 N (n = 4). The impact of injury was measured by blood loss, survival time and coagulation parameters. Liver histology was obtained to evaluate the degree of liver injury. Results: The profound haemodilution resulted in a significant alteration of all coagulation parameters. After inflicting the injury with 355 ± 35 N, both the survival time (30 ± 9 min; p = 0.006) and blood loss (68 ± 16 ml min–1, p = 0.002) were significantly different as compared to injuries with 224 ± 19 N (survival time: 76 ± 20 min, blood loss: 23 ± 4 ml min–1). In contrast, an injury with 112 N led to an insignificant blood loss of only 239 ml. Conclusion: We developed a pressure-controlled clamp that allows for the induction of blunt liver traumas with highly reproducible injuries with a positive correlation with blood loss and survival.

Measurements are performed at a jet to cross-stream momentum ratio of 1 and a Reynolds number, based on the jet diameter and jet velocity, of 1600. The suitability to combine side, top and end views is analyzed statistically. The statistical theory of testing hypotheses, pertaining to the joint distribution of the averaged velocity along intersecting observation planes, is employed. Overall, the averaged velocity fields of the varying observation planes feature homogeneity at a 0.05 significance level. Minor discrepancies are related to the given experimental conditions. By use of image maps, averaged and instantaneous velocity fields, an attempt is made to elucidate the flow physics and a kinematically consistent vortex model is proposed. In the time-averaged flow field, the principal vortical systems were identified and the associated mixing visualized. The jet trajectory and physical dimensions scale with the momentum ratio times the jet diameter. The jet/cross-flow mixture converging upon the span-wise centre-line, the lifting action of the Counter Rotating Vortex Pair and the reversed flow region contribute to the high entrainment and mixedness. It is shown that the jet width is larger on the downstream side as compared to the upstream side of the centre-streamline. The deepest penetration of the particles on the outer boundary occurs in the centre-plane. Meanwhile, with increasing off-centre position, the boundaries all lay further from the centre-line position than does the boundary in the centre-plane, corresponding to a kidney-like shape of the flow cross-section. The generation of the Counter Rotating Vortex Pair and the instability mechanism is documented by instantaneous image maps and vector fields. The necessary circulation for the Counter Rotating Vortex Pair originates from a combined effect of steady in-hole, hanging and wake vortices. The strong cross-flow and jet interaction induces a three-dimensional waving, the stream-wise Counter Rotating Vortex Pair pair, leading to the formation of Ring Like Vortices. A secondary Counter Rotating Vortex Pair forms on top of the primary Counter Rotating Vortex Pair, resulting in mixing by "puffs". Overall, Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry proofed capable of elucidating the Jet in Cross-Flow complex flow field. The gained insight in the mixing process will definitely contribute to the "Micromix" hydrogen combustion optimization.

Volume 5: Industrial and Cogeneration; Microturbines and Small Turbomachinery; Oil and Gas Applications; Wind Turbine Technology N2 - For more than a decade up to now there is an ongoing interest in small gas turbines downsized to micro-scale. With their high energy density they offer a great potential as a substitute for today’s unwieldy accumulators, found in a variety of applications like laptops, small tools etc. But micro-scale gas turbines could not only be used for generating electricity, they could also produce thrust for powering small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or similar devices. Beneath all the great design challenges with the rotating parts of the turbomachinery at this small scale, another crucial item is in fact the combustion chamber needed for a safe and reliable operation. With the so called regular micromix burning principle for hydrogen successfully downscaled in an initial combustion chamber prototype of 10 kW energy output, this paper describes a new design attempt aimed at the integration possibilities in a μ-scale gas turbine. For manufacturing the combustion chamber completely out of stainless steel components, a recuperative wall cooling was introduced to keep the temperatures in an acceptable range. Also a new way of an integrated ignition was developed. The detailed description of the prototype’s design is followed by an in depth report about the test results. The experimental investigations comprise a set of mass flow variations, coupled with a variation of the equivalence ratio for each mass flow at different inlet temperatures and pressures. With the data obtained by an exhaust gas analysis, a full characterisation concerning combustion efficiency and stability of the prototype chamber is possible.

Usually, Golog interpreter are implemented in Prolog, which is not available for our target plat¬form, the bi-ped robot platform Nao. In this paper we sketch our first approach towards a prototype implementation of a Golog interpreter in the scripting language Lua. With the example of the elevator domain we discuss how the basic action theory is specified and how we implemented fluent regression in Lua. One possible advantage of the availability of a Non-Prolog implementation of Golog could be that Golog becomes avail¬able on a larger number of platforms, and also becomes more attractive for roboticists outside the Cognitive Robotics community.

T1 - Numerical Modeling of Flow-Related Thrombus Formation under Physiological and Non-Physiological Flow Conditions T2 - Acta Physiologica N2 - Aims: Thrombotic complications due to activation of platelets and plasmatic clotting factors belong still to the most investigated topics in the field of study of patho-physiological mechanisms. Mathematical modeling of thrombotic reactions is established and validated in test cases. Aim of this study is to experimentally evaluate and computationally simulate platelets under the influence of well-defined shear flow conditions. Platelet behaviour and reactions are experimentally reproduced, measured and used for validation of the numerical simulation. Methods: A mathematical model of platelet activation, adhesion and aggregation has been implemented into a finite element CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) code. The approach is based on the advective and diffusive transport equations for resting platelets, activated platelets and platelet released agonists. Adhesion rates for the reactive surfaces depend on the hemocompatibility properties of the surface and the local shear rate. Experiments with citrate-anticoagulated freshly-drawn whole blood are performed in a perfusion flow chamber as well as in a system of rotating cylinders for Couette and Taylor-vortex flow. Different biomaterials are used. The activation, drop of platelet concentration, adhesion and aggregation are quantified using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and flow cytometry. Results: Regions and flow conditions with a high potential for thrombus growth could be identified. The experiments clearly show the influence of the blood contacting material and flow properties. By means of SEM diverse platelet adhesion patterns are observed. Numerical analysis can explain the patterns and the degree of thrombus formation. Conclusion: The numerical method shows good agreement with experimental data indicating a possible prediction of initiation of activation and detection of the local adhesion areas in connection with the role of Von-Willebrand-Factor.

The main problem with robotics software usually is that it runs on a particular platform and transferring source code to another platform is crucial. In this paper, we present our software framework Fawkes which follows the component-based software design paradigm by featuring a clear component concept with well-defined communication interfaces. We deployed Fawkes on several different robot platforms ranging from service robots to biped soccer robots. Following the component concept with clearly defined communication interfaces shows great benefit when porting robot software from one robot to the other. Fawkes comes with a number of useful plugins for tasks like timing, logging, data visualization, software configuration, and even high-level decision making. These make it particularly easy to create and to debug productive code, shortening the typical development cycle for robot software.

In between is a layer with monitoring and reporting functionality. In this paper we propose a behaviour engine for this middle layer which, based on formalism of hybrid state machines (HSMs), bridges the gap between high-level strategic decision making and low-level actuator control. The behaviour engine has to execute and monitor behaviours and reports status information back to the higher level. To be able to call the behaviours or skills hierarchically, we extend the model of HSMs with dependencies and sub-skills. These Skill-HSMs are implemented in the lightweight but expressive Lua scripting language which is well-suited to implement the behaviour engine on our target platform, the humanoid robot Nao.

Logic-based approaches like the programming and planing language Golog and it successors has been successfully used for such decision-making problems. A drawback of this particular programing language is that their interpreter usually are written in Prolog and run on a Prolog back-end. Such back-ends are usually not available or feasible on resource-limited robot systems.

It is based on solar electric propulsion, as being currently used on the DAWN spacecraft, and other flight-proven technology. First, we have selected a set of mission objectives, the prime objective being the detection of water -especially subsurface water -to provide evidence for the Trojans' formation at large solar distances. Based on DAWN and other comparable missions, we have determined suitable payload instruments to achieve these objectives. Afterwards, we have designed a spacecraft that is able to carry the selected payload to the Trojan region and rendezvous successively with three target bodies within a maximum mission duration of 15 years. Accurate low-thrust trajectories have been obtained with a global low-thrust trajectory optimization program (InTrance). During the transfer from Earth to the first target, the spacecraft is propelled by two RIT-22 ion engines from EADS Astrium, whereas a single RIT-15 is used for transfers within the Trojan region to reduce the required power. For power generation, the spacecraft uses a multi-junction solar array that is supported by concentrators. To achieve moderate mission costs, we have restricted the launch mass to a maximum of 1600 kg, the maximum interplanetary injection capability of a Soyuz/Fregat launcher. Our final layout has a mass of 1400 kg, yielding a margin of about 14%. Nestor (a member of the L4-population) was determined as the first mission target. It can be reached within 4.6 years from launch. The fuel mass ratio for this transfer is about 35%. The stay time at Nestor is 1.2 years. Eurymedon was selected as the second target (transfer time 3.5 years, stay time 3.0 years) and Irus as the third target (transfer time 2.2 years). The transfers within the Trojan L4-population can be accomplished with fuel mass ratios of about 3% for each trajectory leg. Including the stay times in orbit around the targets, the mission can be accomplished within a total duration of about 14.5 years. According to our mission analysis, it is also feasible to fly to the L5-population with similar flight times. It has to be noted that -for a first analysis -we have taken only the named targets into account. Allowing also rendezvous with unnamed objects will very likely decrease the mission duration. Based on a scaling of DAWN's mission costs (due to comparable scientific instruments and mission objectives), and taking into account the longer mission duration and the potential re-use of already developed technology, we have estimated that these three rendezvous can be accomplished with a budget of about 250 Million Euros, i.e. about 25% of ROSETTA's budget.

Sie konzentrieren die Strahlung der Sonne, erzeugen Wärme und wandeln diese mit konventioneller Kraftwerkstechnik in Strom um. Die Wärme kann auch gespeichert werden, so dass der Betrieb während des Durchzugs von Wolken möglich ist und bis in die Abendstunden hinein verlängert werden kann. Zu den solarthermischen Kraftwerken gehören neben der Parabolrinne und dem Solarturm der Fresnel-Kollektor und die Dish-Stirling-Systeme. Im Zuge einer späteren Vergrößerung des Solarfeldes von Solarkraftwerken kann mithilfe von thermischen Energiespeichern die solare Energieerzeugung bei gleichbleibender Kraftwerksleistung sukzessiv bis um den Faktor 3 erweitert werden. Es besteht so die Möglichkeit einer massiven Substitution von fossilen Brennstoffen.Bei den ersten solarthermischen Speichern für die SEGS-Parabolrinnekraftwerke wurde Öl als Speichermedium eingesetzt. Ein weiteres Speichermedium ist Salzschmelze, die im Andasol-1-Projekt in Spanien sowie bei Solarturmkraftwerken eingesetzt wird. Beton ist ein weiteres mögliches Speichermaterial für Parabolrinnensysteme. Eine weitere Alternative bei einem Solarturmkraftwerk mit Luft als Wärmeträgermedium ist die Verwendung von keramischen Feuerfestmaterialien in Form von Schüttungen oder stapelbaren, porösen Elementen.

The power plant for experimental and demonstration purposes in the town of Jülich started supplying electric energy in the beginning of 2008. The central receiver plant features as central innovation an open volumetric receiver, consisting of porous ceramic elements that simultaneously absorb the concentrated sunlight and transfer the heat to ambient air passing through the pores so that an average temperature of 680°C is reached. The subsequent steam cycle generates up to 1.5 MWe. A main field of research at the SIJ is the optimization of the absorber structures. To analyze the capability of new absorber specimens a special test facility was developed and set up in the laboratory. A high-performance near-infrared radiator offers for single test samples a variable and repeatable beam with a power of up to 320 kW/m² peak. The temperatures achieved on the absorber surface can reach more than 1000°C. To suck ambient air through the open absorber - like on the tower - it is mounted on a special blower system. An overview about the test facility and some recent results will be presented.

Assuring the provenance of workflows will likely become even more important with respect to the incorporation of human tasks to standard workflows by emerging standards such as WS-HumanTask. This paper addresses this trend by an actor-based workflow approach that actively support provenance. It proposes a framework to track and store provenance information automatically that applies for various workflow management systems. In particular, the introduced provenance framework supports the documentation of workflows in a legally binding way. The authors therefore use the concept of layered XML documents, i.e. history-tracing XML. Furthermore, the proposed provenance framework enables the executors (actors) of a particular workflow task to attest their operations and the associated results by integrating digital XML signatures.

In those scenarios the dedicated resources execute submitted jobs according to the request of a workflow engine or Grid wide scheduler. This approach has various limitations, particularly if human interactions should be integrated in workflow execution. To support human interactions with the benefit of enabling inter organizational computation and community approaches, this poster paper proposes the idea of a pull-based task distribution strategy. Here, heterogeneous resources, including human interaction, should actively select tasks for execution from a central repository. This leads to special demands regarding security issues like access control. In the established push-based job execution the resources are responsible for granting access to workflows and job initiators. In general this is done by access control lists, where users are explicitly mapped to local accounts according to their policies. In the pull-based approach the resources actively apply for job executions by sending requests to a central task repository. This means that every resource has to be able to authenticate against the repository to be authorized for task execution. In other words the authorization is relocated from the resources to the repository. The poster paper introduces current work regarding to the mentioned security aspects in the pull-based approach within the scope of the project “HiX4AGWS”.

Zur Messung der Elektrolytleitfähigkeit wurde das Layout von Interdigitalelektroden angepasst, um in vergleichsweise gut leitenden Elektrolyten zu messen. Durch Quervernetzung von Glucose-Oxidase mit Glutaraldehyd und Immobilisierung auf einer Platinelektrode wurde ein amperometrischer Glucosesensor mit einem linearen Messbereich von bis zu 2 mM und einer Sensitivität von 168 nA/mM realisiert.

T1 - Die Rolle des Respirationsquotienten in der Zellkulturfermentation T2 - Chemie Ingenieur Technik N2 - In der biopharmazeutischen Industrie werden rekombinante Proteine und monoklonale Antikörper in Zellkulturfermentationen produziert, da nur humane oder tierische Zelllinien über die Fähigkeit der Glykosylierung verfügen. Um hohe Produktausbeuten in ausgezeichneter Qualität zu erzielen, ist eine funktionstüchtige Prozesskontrolle unerlässlich. Hierzu wurde in Kooperation mit der Firma Hitec Zang GmbH die HiSense� Präzisionsabgasanalytik entwickelt, die auf Basis der vollautomatischen Ermittlung des Respirationsquotienten (RQ; Verhältnis vonKohlendioxidbildungsrate (CER) zu Sauerstoffaufnahmerate (OTR)) einen Fermentationsprozess nicht-invasiv überwacht. Der RQ kann in Hybridoma- und CHO-Zellen (s. Abb.) in sowohl serumhaltigen als auch serumfreien Medien erfolgreich ermittelt werden. Hier spiegeln die CER und die OTR das Wachstumsverhalten der kultivierten CHO-Zellen wider. Der RQ nimmt dabei Werte zwischen 0,9 und 1,2 an. Dies lässt auf verschiedene Stoffwechselaktivitäten schließen. Da die momentane industrielle Prozesskontrolle auf gemessenen Sauerstoffaufnahmeraten oder entsprechende Offline-Analytiken der Metaboliten basieren, soll durch die vollautomatische RQ-Ermittlung ein neues Verfahren zur Fermentationsüberwachung etabliert werden. Bisher war diese, in bakteriellen Kultivierungen standardisierte Methode, aufgrund der schwierigen CER-Berechnung bei Zellkulturen keine adäquate Alternative.
