Bio-Enhanced Neoligaments Graft Bearing FE002 Primary Progenitor Tenocytes: Allogeneic Tissue Engineering & Surgical Proofs-of-Concept for Hand Ligament Regenerative Medicine

Sandra Jaccoud, Corinne Scaletta, Philippe Abdel Sayed, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Cédric Peneveyre, Annick Jeannerat, Alexis Laurent, Joachim Meuli

Hand tendon/ligament structural ruptures (tears, lacerations) often require surgical reconstruction and grafting, for the restauration of finger mechanical functions. Clinical-grade human primary progenitor tenocytes (FE002 cryopreserved progenitor cell so ...

Industrial Biotechnology Conservation Processes: Similarities with Natural Long-Term Preservation of Biological Organisms

Philippe Abdel Sayed, Corinne Scaletta, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Alexis Laurent

Cryopreservation and lyophilization processes are widely used for conservation purposes in the pharmaceutical, biotechnological, and food industries or in medical transplantation. Such processes deal with extremely low temperatures (e.g., -196 degrees C) a ...

Optical gap and fundamental gap of oligoynes and carbyne

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Holger Frauenrath, Jan Cornelius Brauer, Stephen Schrettl, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Eric Albert Georges Bremond, Emmanuel Romaric Contal

The optoelectronic properties of various carbon allotropes and nanomaterials have been well established, while the purely sp-hybridized carbyne remains synthetically inaccessible. Its properties have therefore frequently been extrapolated from those of def ...

Mechanistic study of the photo‐generation of hydrogen by decamethylruthenocene

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Heron Vrubel, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Sunny Isaïe Maye, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier

Hydrogen evolution by decamethylruthenocene (Cp*2RuII) was studied in detail highlighting that metallocenes are capable of photo‐reducing hydrogen without the need of an additional sensitizer. Electrochemical, gas chromatographic and spectroscopic (UV/vis, ...

DORI Reveals the Influence of Noncovalent Interactions on Covalent Bonding Patterns in Molecular Crystals Under Pressure

Berend Smit, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Benjamin André René Meyer, Senja Dominique Barthel, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Amber Kashan Mace

The study of organic molecular crystals under high pressure provides fundamental insight into crystal packing distortions and reveals mechanisms of phase transitions and the crystallization of polymorphs. These solid-state transformations can be monitored ...

Overview and recommendations for regionalized life cycle impact assessment

Xun Liao, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Alexis Laurent

Purpose Regionalized life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) has rapidly developed in the past decade, though its widespread application, robustness, and validity still face multiple challenges. Under the umbrella of UNEP/SETAC Life Cycle Initiative, a dedicat ...

Extending the Scope of the Density Overlap Region Indicator

Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay

In this thesis, original applications of the Density Overlap Region Indicator (DORI), a density dependent bonding descriptor capable of simultaneously capturing covalent and noncovalent interactions, are discussed. The use of scalar fields, such as DORI, w ...

Salt-induced thermochromism of a conjugated polyelectrolyte

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Natalie Renuka Banerji, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Yauhen Sheima

We report here the photophysical properties of a water-soluble conjugated polythiophene with cationic side-chains. When dissolved in aqueous buffer solution (PBS, phosphate buffered saline), there is ordering of the polymer chains due to the presence of th ...

Photoproduction of Hydrogen by Decamethylruthenocene Combined with Electrochemical Recycling

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Grégoire Clément Gschwend, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier

The photoinduced hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) by decamethylruthenocene, Cp2RuII (Cp=C5Me5), is reported. The use of a metallocene to photoproduce hydrogen is presented as an alternative strategy to reduce protons without involving an additional phot ...
