An array of electrodes on which cells could be grown directly was fabricated using silicon anisotropic etching and a thick-photoresist process and employed for the detection of nitric oxide (NO) released from a population of adherently growing human umbili ...
Fas-induced death of motoneurons in vitro has been shown to involve two signaling cascades that act together to execute the death program: a Fas-Daxx-ASK-1-p38 kinase-nNOS branch, which controls transcriptional and post-translational events, and the second ...
Microfluidic devices are a promising new tool for studying and optimizing (bio)chemical reactions and analyses. Many (bio)chemical reactions require accurate temperature control, such as for example thermocycling for PCR. Here, a new integrated temperature ...
The first part of this laboratory study deals with heterogeneous reactions of bromine- and chlorine-containing species relevant to the atmosphere with solid model alkali salt substrates. The second part of this work treats the heterogeneous interaction of ...
Electronic states and solvation of Cu and Ag aqua ions are investigated by comparing the Cu2+ + e- -> Cu+ and Ag2+ + e- -> Ag+ redox reactions using d. functional-based computational methods. The coordination no. of aq. Cu2+ is found to fluctuate between 5 ...
This thesis presents the different steps in the development of a multiple diagnostic experimental setup and the results concerning the kinetics of condensation and evaporation of water over pure ice, as well as ice films doped with a known amount of atmosp ...
A thermodynamic model, the Gibbs Free-Energy Minimization model (GFEMN), was used to simulate the partitioning of PM2.5 nitrate aerosol and nitric acid using highly time-resolved inorganic measurements collected at the Pittsburgh Air Quality Study during J ...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the barrier efficiency of a thick thermal spray deposit on the alpha-titanium alloy, Ti-5Al-2.4Sn against hydrogen penetration. Therefore, a duplex coating has been applied by plasma spraying using a Sulzer Metc ...
The influence of substrate compn. on the yield, nature, and compn. of exopolysaccharides (EPS) produced by the food-grade strain G. xylinus I-2281 was investigated during controlled cultivations on mixed substrates contg. acetate and either glucose, sucros ...
Aq. solns. of formic acid were exptl. investigated in a modified sweeping gas membrane distn. (SGMD) configuration. A thermostated sweeping gas was used in order to enhance the mass transfer performance. A new tubular module was designed and built for this ...
