Auswahl und Planung von Fugenabdichtungssystemen für WU‐Konstruktionen
Authors: Hohmann Rainer 
Published: October 2014

AbstractWasserundurchlässige Bauwerke aus Beton, sogenannte “Weiße Wannen”, müssen im Regelfall das Eindringen bzw. das Austreten von Wasser verhindern. Die Ausbildung der Fugen und die Fugenabdichtung erfordern die besondere Beachtung von Planern und Ausführenden, da Fugen häufig eine potenzielle Schwachstelle darstellen. Arbeitsfugen, Dehnfugen, Sollrissquerschnitte und Durchdringungen müssen dauerhaft abgedichtet werden. Dies setzt vertiefte Kenntnisse über die unterschiedlichen Fugenabdichtungssysteme voraus. Der Beitrag bietet einen Überblick über die Fugenabdichtungssysteme und gibt Hinweise für die Auswahl und Planung der Fugenabdichtung.Selection and Design of Joint Waterproofing Systems for Watertight Concrete StructuresWatertight concrete structures, so called “White Tanks” or “White Boxes”, generally have to prevent water penetration into the structure, or to its contents; alternatively they are designed and built to prevent water leakage from the structure, or to do both. In many cases joints in structures of waterproof concrete turn out to be a weak point. For this reason in watertight concrete construction works, the design engineers and the contractor must pay special attention to the waterproofing solutions for all of the joints. Construction joints, movement or expansion joints, controlled crack induced joints and penetrations are sealed and made watertight. Therefore the responsible engineer needs to have a good knowledge of the different joint sealing and waterproofing solutions that can be used. This article goes into the details of the different joint sealing and waterproofing systems and the basic rules for sealing.

Published: October 2014

AbstractIn vitro modulation of the differentiation status of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is important for their application to regenerative medicine. We suggested that the morphology and differentiation states of MSCs could be modulated by controlling the cell affinity of a substrate. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of surface bio‐adhesive signals on self‐renewal and osteogenic differentiation of MSCs using a low‐fouling platform. Cell‐resistant poly(carboxybetaine) hydrogel was conjugated with 5 μM or 5 mM of cell‐adhesive arginine‐glycine‐aspartic acid (RGD) peptides in order to control the cells' affinity to the substrate. Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were cultured on the RGD‐modified poly(carboxybetaine) hydrogel and then the cells' states of stemness and osteogenic differentiation were evaluated using reverse‐transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. The hMSCs formed three‐dimensional spheroids on the 5 μM RGD substrate, while cells on the 5 mM RGD substrate exhibited spreading morphology. Furthermore, cells on the 5 μM RGD hydrogel maintained a better stemness phenotype, while the hMSCs on the 5 mM RGD hydrogel proliferated faster and underwent osteogenic differentiation. In conclusion, the stemness of hMSCs was best maintained on a low RGD surface, while osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs was enhanced on a high RGD surface.

Published: October 2014

AbstractThese investigations were designed to improve capture efficiency and selectivity in the immobilized metal ion affinity chromatographic (IMAC) purification of tagged recombinant proteins expressed in Escherichia coli cells, utilizing an alternative and novel class of immobilized metal binding ligands. The impact of loading conditions and lysate composition on the IMAC purification of NT1A‐ or His6‐tagged green fluorescent protein (GFP), using the ligands 1,4,7‐triazacyclononane (tacn) and bis(1,4,7‐triazacyclononyl)propane (dtnp), charged with Cu2+ ions, has thus been explored. These findings were compared to the performance of a commercial adsorbent, IMAC Sepharose™ 6 FF, similarly charged with Cu2+ ions. With the same loading, wash and elution protocols, the tacn‐ and dtnp‐derived adsorbents showed higher selectivity in terms of removal of E. coli host cell proteins than the commercial adsorbent, while low molecular weight components in the crude lysate had a higher impact on the binding capacities of tacn‐ and dtnp‐derived adsorbents. This effect of lysate composition could be reduced through osmotic shock treatment of the E. coli cells prior to lysis. Additionally, the protein‐binding capacities of the tacn‐based resins were enhanced by increasing their ligand densities. Because both the tacn‐ and the dtnp‐derived IMAC adsorbents exhibit very high metal ion stability constants, under the chromatographic conditions examined, they could be used several times without re‐charging with Cu2+ ions. The results of these studies thus expand the general application scope of tacn‐based IMAC resins for use in the capture and purification of tagged recombinant proteins.

ABSTRACTDNA binding to trans‐ and cis‐isomers of azobenzene containing cationic surfactant in 5 mM NaCl solution was investigated by the methods of dynamic light scattering (DLS), low‐gradient viscometry (LGV), atomic force microscopy (AFM), circular dichroism (CD), gel electrophoresis (GE), flow birefringence (FB), UV–Vis spectrophotometry. Light‐responsive conformational transitions of DNA in complex with photosensitive surfactant, changes in DNA optical anisotropy and persistent length, phase transition of DNA into nanoparticles induced by high surfactant concentration, as well as transformation of surfactant conformation under its binding to macromolecule were studied. Computer simulations of micelles formation for cis‐ and trans‐isomers of azobenzene containing surfactant, as well as DNA‐surfactant interaction, were carried out. Phase diagram for DNA‐surfactant solutions was designed. The possibility to reverse the DNA packaging induced by surfactant binding with the dilution and light irradiation was shown. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Biopolymers 103: 109–122, 2015.
Nostoc: ein prokaryotischer Vielzeller
Authors: Maldener Iris 
Published: October 2014

AbstractIn diesem Jahr wurde das Cyanobakterium Nostoc durch die VAAM zur “Mikrobe des Jahres” gekürt. Nostoc ist ein vielzelliges Bakterium, das sich an verschiedene Umweltbedingungen anpassen und dementsprechend vielfältige Habitate besiedeln kann. Das von Licht und Luft lebende Bakterium kann sporenähnliche Zellen bilden, sich mithilfe von Pili fortbewegen und der N2‐Fixierung dienende Heterozysten bilden. Diese Eigenschaften machen es zu einem beliebten Partner in verschiedenen Symbiosen mit Pflanzen als auch heterotrophen Organismen. Seine autotrophe Lebensweise als photosynthetischer Organismus und die Fähigkeit zur Differenzierung von drei verschiedenen Zelltypen mit unterschiedlicher Funktion bedeuten für Nostoc einen deutlichen Selektionsvorteil innerhalb aquatischer und terrestrischer Habitate. Seine Vielzelligkeit beweist es durch eine echte zelluläre Arbeitsteilung und das Auftreten von Zellwandstrukturen, die eine Kommunikation zwischen den Zellen der Filamente erlauben.

Hydroxyl‐Functionalized Imidazoles: Highly Active Additives for the Potassium Iodide‐Catalyzed Synthesis of 1,3‐Dioxolan‐2‐one Derivatives from Epoxides and Carbon Dioxide
Authors: Werner Thomas , Tenhumberg Nils , Büttner Hendrik 
Published: October 2014

Abstract4(5)‐(Hydroxymethyl)imidazole and potassium iodide were identified as an efficient catalyst system for the cycloaddition of epoxides and carbon dioxide producing 1,3‐dioxolan‐2‐one derivatives under solvent‐free conditions. The high activity of the catalyst system even at 60 °C was probably due to synergistic effects between potassium iodide and the substituted imidazole. Various functionalized and nonfunctionalized terminal epoxides as well as internal epoxides were converted into the corresponding cyclic carbonates in high yields (up to 99 %) under mild reaction conditions within a short reaction time. Compared with the previously reported amino alcohols e.g. triethanolamine based catalyzed synthesis of cyclic carbonates, the catalyst system described herein demonstrates a higher activity toward a broad substrate scope

AbstractThe optimal exchange properties for chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) contrast agents on 3 T clinical scanners were characterized using continuous wave saturation transfer, and it was demonstrated that the exchangeable protons in phenols can be tuned to reach these criteria through proper ring substitution. Systematic modification allows the chemical shift of the exchangeable protons to be positioned between 4.8 to 12 ppm from water and enables adjustment of the proton exchange rate to maximize CEST contrast at these shifts. In particular, 44 hydrogen‐bonded phenols are investigated for their potential as CEST MRI contrast agents and the stereoelectronic effects on their CEST properties are summarized. Furthermore, a pair of compounds, 2,5‐dihydroxyterephthalic acid and 4,6‐dihydroxyisophthalic acid, were identified which produce the highest sensitivity through incorporating two exchangeable protons per ring.
A Facile Asymmetric Approach to the Multicyclic Core Structure of Mangicol A
Authors: Ying Jun , Pu Lin 
Published: October 2014

AbstractChiral propargylic ether‐based triene–ynes are synthesized with high enantiomeric purity by employing an asymmetric enyne addition to aldehydes catalyzed by 1,1′‐bi‐2‐naphthol in combination with ZnEt2, Ti(OiPr)4 and dicyclohexylamine at room temperature. These substrates are found to undergo a one‐pot domino Pauson–Khand and Diels–Alder cycloaddition catalyzed by [RhCl(CO)2]2 under CO to generate a series of multicyclic products with high chemoselectivity and stereoselectivity. These products contain the multicyclic core structure of mangicol A which could facilitate the synthesis and study of this class of natural products.
Rationally Investigating the Influence of T1 Location on Electroluminescence Performance of Aryl Amine Modified Phosphine Oxide Materials

Published: October 2014

AbstractThe correspondence between triplet location effect and host‐localized triplet–triplet annihilation and triplet–polaron quenching effects was performed on the basis of a series of naphthyldiphenylamine (DPNA)‐modified phosphine oxide hosts. The number and ratio of DPNA and diphenylphosphine oxide was adjusted to afford symmetrical and unsymmetrical molecular structures and different electronic environments. As designed, the first triplet (T1) states were successfully localized on the specific DPNA chromophores. Owing to the meso‐ and multi‐insulating linkages, identical optical properties and comparable electrical performance was observed, including the same first singlet (S1) and T1 energy levels to support the similar singlet and triplet energy transfer and the close frontier molecular orbital energy levels. This established the basis of rational investigation on T1 location effect without interference from other optoelectronic factors.
