Biomimetic materials in tissue engineering
Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Mikaël Martino, Jennifer Patterson
Biomaterial matrices are being developed that mimic the key characteristics of the extracellular matrix, including presenting adhesion sites and displaying growth factors in the context of a viscoelastic hydrogel. This review focuses on two classes of mate ...
Elsevier2010A Generic Approach by Non-linear Optimisation for Complex Processes Application Example Coordinated Control in Combined Sewer Networks
The algorithm based on nonlinear optimisation as presented in this paper is applicable to the control of complex processes. The systematic approach is doing without the formulation of rules. In case of competing control targets a weighting in the sense of ...
2009Selecting control genes for RT-QPCR using public microarray data
Darlene Goldstein, Mauro Delorenzi, Vlad Popovici
Background: Gene expression analysis has emerged as a major biological research area, with real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-QPCR) being one of the most accurate and widely used techniques for expression profiling of selected genes. In o ...
2009Assessment of successful experiments and limitations of phytotechnologies: contaminant uptake, detoxification and sequestration, and consequences for food safety
The term "phytotechnologies" refers to the application of science and engineering to provide solutions involving plants, including phytoremediation options using plants and associated microbes to remediate environmental compartments contaminated by trace e ...
2009Metabolism of sulphonated anthraquinones in rhubarb, maize and celery: the role of cytochromes P450 and peroxidases
Sulphonated anthraquinones are precursors of many synthetic dyes and pigments, recalcitrant to biodegradation, and thus contaminating many industrial effluents and rivers. In the development of a phytotreatment to remove sulphonated aromatic compounds, rhu ...
Springer-Verlag2009Stability of enhanced yield and metal uptake by sunflower mutants for improved phytoremediation
Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Erika Nehnevajova, Cécile Bourigault
Plant biomass and metal shoot accumulation are key factors for efficient phytoextraction. In a previous study, chemical mutagenesis has been used to improve the phytoextraction potential of sunflowers. The main goal of the present study was to assess the s ...
2009Synthetic Studies on (-)-Lemonomycin: An Efficient Asymmetric Synthesis of Lemonomycinone Amide
Asym. synthesis of lemonomycinone amide was accomplished from readily accessible starting materials. Enantioselective alkylation of N-(diphenylmethylene)glycine tert-Bu ester by 5-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy-2,4-dimethoxy-3-methylbenzyl bromide in the prese ...
2009Recent knowledge and innovations related to hexofuranosides: structure, synthesis and applications
Hexofuranosides are widely spread in nature, and notably in numerous pathogenic microorganisms. This particular five-membered ring for hexosides leads to novel biological properties and, as usual in glycochemistry, to completely different reactivity and se ...
2008Effect of the electronic structure of carbon nanotubes on the selectivity of electrochemical functionalization
Klaus Kern, Marko Burghard, Kannan Balasubramanian
The functionalization of carbon nanotubes through electrochemical routes is gaining importance due to the high degree of control achievable and the ability to render the tubes with a variety of chemical and biological species. In this article, we report sy ...
2008In vitro breeding of Brassica juncea L. to enhance metal accumulation and extraction properties
Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Erika Nehnevajova
In vitro breeding and somaclonal variation were used as tools to improve the potential of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L.) to extract and accumulate toxic metals. Calli from B. juncea were cultivated on a modified MS medium supplemented with 10–200 μM C ...
