Published: December 2016

AbstractThe integration of dynamic covalent bonds into macrocycles has been a tremendously successful strategy for investigating noncovalent interactions and identifying effective host–guest pairs. While numerous studies have focused on the dynamic responses of macrocycles and larger cages to various guests, the corresponding constitutionally dynamic chemistry of cryptands remains unexplored. Reported here is that cryptands based on orthoester bridgeheads offer an elegant entry to experiments in which a metal ion selects its preferred host from a dynamic mixture of competing subcomponents. In such dynamic mixtures, the alkali metal ions Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+, and Cs+ exhibit pronounced preferences for the formation of cryptands of certain sizes and donor numbers, and the selection is rationalized by DFT calculations. Reported is also the first self‐assembly of a chiral orthoester cryptate and a preliminary study on the use of stereoisomers as subcomponents.
Sandwichelemente mit UHPC‐Deckschichten und geschäumten PUR‐Kernschichten
Authors: Stark Alexander , Kueres Dominik , Hegger Josef 
Published: December 2016

AbstractModerne Gebäudehüllen sind dauerhafte und integrale Konstruktionen, die nach dem Prinzip der Funktionsaddition einen geringen Ressourcenverbrauch, günstige bauphysikalische Eigenschaften, Übernahme von Tragfunktionen, Modularität und architektonische Gestaltbarkeit vereinen. Innovative Sandwichkonstruktionen mit Betondeckschichten können diese Anforderungen erfüllen.Durch den Einsatz von Hochleistungsbetonen und korrosionsresistenten Bewehrungen aus Faserverbundwerkstoffen für die Deckschichten können in Kombination mit eingeschäumtem Polyurethan als Kernmaterial leistungsfähige Sandwichquerschnitte hergestellt werden. Um die Grundlagen für räumliche Sandwichelemente mit verschiedenen Querschnittsformen zu schaffen und die Herstelltechnik zu überprüfen, werden zunächst ebene Sandwichbalken und Sandwichplatten getestet. Die Ergebnisse dieser Versuche werden im vorliegenden Beitrag diskutiert.
Die Sammlung José Guadalupe Posada des Ibero‐Amerikanischen Instituts der Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz – eine Fallstudie zur Digitalisierung und deren Auswirkungen auf die bibliothekarische Arbeit
Authors: Musser Ricarda , Weymann Anna 
Published: December 2016

AbstractThe José Guadalupe Posada Collection of the Ibero‐American Institute, Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation – a Case Study on Digitization and its Impacts on the Work in Libraries. Digitization in a broader sense and digitization of printed cultural heritage especially have brought about many changes regarding the tasks and responsabilities of research librarians. New ways of thinking and acting are required as the objects and their mobile and connective qualities come into focus. These alterations stand in such contrast to the traditional ‘librarian’, that the concept of the ‘embedded librarian’ has arisen. A digitization project completed recently at the Ibero‐American Institute in Berlin will serve as an example to shed some light on this new phenomenon of librarianship.

Published: December 2016

AbstractA novel fluorescent sensor, 1‐((2‐hydroxynaphthalen‐1‐yl)methylene)urea (ocn) has been designed and applied as a highly selective and sensitive fluorescent probe for recognition of Al3+ in Tris–HCl (pH = 7.20) solution. The probe ocn exhibits an excellent selectivity to Al3+ over other examined metal ions, anions and amino acids with a prominent fluorescence ‘turn‐on’ at 438 nm. ocn binds to Al3+ with a 2:1 binding stoichiometry and the detection limit was 0.3 μM. Furthermore, its capability of biological application was evaluated and the results showed that the sensor could be used to detect Al3+ in living cells.
Highly Conductive and Lightweight Composite Film as Polysulfide Reservoir for High‐Performance Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Published: December 2016

AbstractLithium–sulfur (Li−S) batteries are one of the most promising candidates for the next generation of energy‐storage devices owing to their high theoretical energy and low cost. However, low practical energy density and poor cycling life are obstacles to the practical application of Li−S batteries. A highly conductive and lightweight poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate–carbon nanotube (PEDOT:PSS‐CNT) interlayer for Li−S batteries has been fabricated. The PEDOT:PSS‐CNT interlayer not only acts as a soft buffer to scavenge excess lithium polysulfides in the pores and restricts polysulfides from migrating to the lithium anode by chemical absorption, but also serves as an assisted “current collector” to improve the electronic conductivity for the sulfur cathode. With these synergistic contributions, pure sulfur cathode with the PEDOT:PSS‐CNT interlayer shows a high capacity (921 mA h g−1at 0.5 C; 1 C=1675 mA h g−1), enhanced cycling performance (a capacity retention of 70.9 % after 200 cycles), and good rate performance. The excellent electrochemical performance of the sulfur cathode plus the easy fabrication of such a functional interlayer bring feasible Li−S batteries for practical applications one step closer.
Direct and Rapid Electrochemical Detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Quorum Signaling Molecules in Bacterial Cultures and Cystic Fibrosis Sputum Samples through Cationic Surfactant‐Assisted Membrane Disruption

AbstractRapid detection of pathogenic bacteria present in patient samples is of utmost importance for the clinical management of bacterial‐induced diseases. Herein, we describe an efficient and direct electrochemical approach for the detection of 2‐heptyl‐3‐hydroxy‐4‐quinolone (PQS), 2‐heptyl‐4‐hydroxyquinoline (HHQ), and pyocyanin (PYO) as a molecular signature of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), a frequently infecting pathogen with high antibiotic resistance. The cationic surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) enhances the effectiveness of an unmodified thin‐film boron‐doped diamond (BDD) electrode for the direct detection of PYO, HHQ, and PQS in bacterial cultures of PAO1 and PA14. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) is then used to monitor the production of these microbial metabolites in bacterial cultures of PAO1 over 10 h without any sample pretreatment. A proposed mechanism for the interaction of CTAB with bacteria cells is examined by zeta (ζ) potential measurements. Furthermore, the detection method is successfully extended to a clinical fluid matrix and applied to PA spiked cystic fibrosis (CF) sputum samples.
