Most biomass pretreatment processes for monosaccharide production are run at low-solid concentration (<10wt%) and use significant amounts of chemical catalysts. Biphasic CO 2-H 2O mixtures could provide a more sustainable pretreatment medium while using ...
We present a novel microfluidic approach for on-line analysis of cell metabolism by simultaneous measurement of two important indicators (glucose and lactate) in a small volume (100 µl) of cell-culture medium. The in-vitro study of cell metabolism is espec ...
The effect of CuCl2 and EDTA on increasing the sensitivity of enzyme biosensors was evaluated. The experiments revealed that successive exposure of these solutions to our biosensors can increase the sensitivity of the glucose and lactate biosensors up to 8 ...
L'Homo Digitalo-Informaticus est le produit de nos jours. La borne wifi lui ouvre les portes de son univers. Elle l'éloigne d'une réalité palpable en laquelle il ne croit plus. Enclin à un défaitisme chronique, il se caractérise de deux manières: celui qui ...
Face to the increasing demand for energy, the declining availability of fossil fuels and the periodical tensions in the geopolitical context of oil-producing countries have raised serious concerns in the governments worldwide as well as in the public opini ...
Background: The control of the functional pancreatic beta-cell mass serves the key homeostatic function of releasing the right amount of insulin to keep blood sugar in the normal range. It is not fully understood though how beta-cell mass is determined. ...
To maintain brain function, the combustion of glucose for the generation of energy (ATP) is essential, yet the brain maintains fuel storage in the form of glial glycogen. Although brain glycogen levels are lower than those in the liver, they exceed the nor ...
The retention, diffusion and structural properties of 2–4 nm nanoporous alumina membranes were investigated in view of their integration as size-selective interface in a glucose sensor. These membranes exhibit remarkable glucose diffusion properties with o ...

Nascent polypeptides entering the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are covalently modified with pre-assembled oligosaccharides. The terminal glucose and mannose residues are immediately removed after transfer of the oligosaccharide onto newly synthesized polypep ...
