description: A faunistic study of the intertidal oribatid mite fauna of South Africa’s coastline revealed the presence of four species from three families, showing specific biogeographic patterns. Their occurrences show a clear east–west divide, with a small gap near East London between the Podacaridae and the other two families, the Selenoribatidae and Fortuyniidae, clearly coinciding with suggested marine biogeographic ecoregions. The podacarid Halozetes capensis is confined to the cooler warm-temperate Agulhas Ecoregion; the fortuyniid Fortuynia elamellata micromorpha and the selenoribatid Schusteria ugraseni to the warmer subtropical Natal Ecoregion; and the selenoribatid Selenoribates divergens to the tropical Delagoa Ecoregion. These distributions are an indication that the oceanic climate may be the primary factor shaping their biogeography, particularly the seawater temperatures along the coast, which are in turn affected by the Agulhas and the Benguela currents. A mean monthly sea surface temperature of approximately 22 °C apparently represents the climatic border of the distributions, with the podacarid persisting only below this temperature, and the fortuyniid and selenoribatids only above it. Global warming will certainly change these geographic ranges, and in South Africa the warm-adapted fortuyniid and selenoribatids can be expected to expand their distributions southwards, while the occurrence of the cold-adapted podacarid might be reduced to a few southwestern coastal areas in the next few decades.
title: Erstellung einer multimedialen Lehr- und Lernhilfe für den Trainingsbereich im österreichischen Kinder- und Jugend-Eishockey
Creators: name: Maier, Arno
Year: 2008

description: Die vorliegende Diplomarbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Erstellung eines multimedialen Lehr- und Lernmittels für Eishockey, im Speziellen mit den Eislauftechniken, die dafür erforderlich sind, welches auf der Internetplattform Sport Multimedial Studierenden der Sportwissenschaft und anderen interessierten Personen zugänglich gemacht wird. Die auf einer deskriptivstatistischen Datenanalyse basierenden Ergebnisse, welche aus einer Fragebogenerhebung an 49, männlichen, österreichischen Eishockeytrainern resultieren, zeigen einerseits die Legitimation der Erstellung des Lehrmittels. Anderer-seits zeigen sie, dass die Trainer eislauftechnisch und didaktisch grundsätzlich relativ gut qualifiziert sind. Kleine Schwächen zeigen sich hier vor allem im Bereich von Rückwärtsbewegungen. Multimediale Lehr- und Lernmittel werden für sinnvoll gehalten, jedoch aus Raum-, Zeit- und Geldmangel eher selten für Trainings verwendet. Die Beschäftigung mit der historischen Entwicklung von Eishockey zeigt, dass die Grundlage von Eishockey, das Eislaufen wohl zu den ältesten Fortbewegungsarten der Menschheit gezählt werden kann, wie Knochenfunde in wasserreichen, kühleren Gegenden vermuten lassen. Gesichert ist hingegen, dass das erste Eishockeyspiel der Welt am 3. März 1875 in Montreal/Kanada stattgefunden hat. Die Struktur des österreichischen Eishockeys ist relativ komplex und in internationale Systeme eingebunden. Die Ausbildungssituation ist qualitativ sehr gut und ermöglicht den Erwerb von theoretischem und praktischem Wissen. Die Verbindung von Eishockey und der Sportwissenschaft ist unumgänglich, da nur so gewährleistet werden kann, dass die Spieler und Spielerinnen nach modernsten wissenschaftlichen Erkennt-nissen von den Trainer und Trainerinnen betreut werden können. Schwächen lassen sich im Nachwuchsbereich erkennen. Hier fehlt es einerseits an entsprechenden finanziellen Mitteln, um dem Nachwuchs entsprechende Bedingungen bieten zu können, andererseits ist es erforderlich dem Nachwuchs die erforderliche Aufmerksamkeit entgegen zu bringen. Den Abschluss bildet die Veröffentlichung von Teilen dieser Arbeit auf der Internetplattform Sport Multimedial. Auf dieser Plattform werden damit theoretische Inputs zum Thema Eishockey und auch praxisbezogene, denn drei österreichische Profieishockeyspieler zeigen in kurzen Lehrvideos die unterschiedlichen Eislauftechniken in hoher Präzision. Es wird an dieser Stelle darauf hingewiesen, dass dem Autor der vorliegenden Diplomarbeit bis dato keine Videoaufnahmen mit österreichischen Profieishockeyspielern bekannt sind, die für die Verwendung von Bewegungsbeschreibungen der Eislauftechniken im Eishockeysport geeignet sind.

description: Temporal trends in the size composition (length frequency) and length–weight (L–W) relationship of chokka squid Loligo reynaudii on the south coast of South Africa were assessed over periods spanning 22 years: length frequencies from 1996 to 2017 (with 15 years represented); and L–W relationships over 9 years between 1994 and 2016. To allow for comparison, identical data selection and processing was adopted for all years considered (i.e. identical period of 60 days in spring–summer; the same depths and areas; chokka with empty stomachs; and squid of the same maturity stage). Although there were no significant long-term temporal trends in the mean lengths, there was a significant short-term drop in the mean lengths over the years 2014–2017 (especially in females), which could not be attributed with certainty to any cause. A tentative explanation is that this drop might be linked to the introduction of an additional closed season in these years. The estimated parameters of the L–W relationship also revealed no trend over the years considered. Investigation of the caecum colour, which indicates the state of starvation (white: 8 h on average after food ingestion; yellow: 6 to 7 h after food ingestion), showed significantly more starving males than starving females. Starvation of males on the spawning grounds might be associated with the spawning behaviour of chokka.

description: Peptide-based therapeutics and biomaterials continue to attract considerable attention worldwide. Problems associated with their poor in vivo stability, bioavailability and challenging syntheses necessitates the use of chemical engineering to design and synthesise novel peptidomimetics possessing improved physicochemical properties. The use of chemistry thus provides exquisite opportunities to enhance natural peptide designs to generate ideal pharmaceutical targets with high specificity, low toxicity and excellent potency towards receptors. Our interest in homogeneous catalysis led to examine a method for generating structurally well-defined protein-polymer hybrids for application in the field of peptidomimetics. This thesis focused on the development of a novel and generic metathesis-driven polymerisation method for linking multiple copies of a peptide sequence with directional NC ligation throughout the entire biopolymer.

description: Information on the movement ecology of endangered species is critical for the implementation of effective conservation measures. This study made use of a long-term dart tagging dataset to reveal the movement patterns and growth rates of two size classes of the Critically Endangered whitespotted wedgefish Rhynchobatus djiddensis within its southern African distribution, which can have important implications for fisheries management. A total of 4 768 individuals were tagged with 340 recaptures recorded, ranging from 1 to 2 639 days (7.2 years) at liberty. Most of the tag releases and recaptures occurred within the KwaZulu-Natal central region in South Africa, with catches increasing significantly during summer (October to March). Most recaptures (43%) were recorded within 5 km of the tagging (release) site. Tagged adults recorded significantly greater distances moved than juveniles (p < 0.002) but there was no significant difference between juveniles or adults in terms of their direction of movement (p > 0.30). A Francis growth model showed that smaller individuals had a substantially faster growth rate (198.69 [SE 21.75] mm year−1) compared with larger individuals (57.41 [SE 27.83] mm year−1) confirming that the species is relatively slow-growing. Ultimately, this study identified important knowledge gaps in the broadscale movement patterns of R. djiddensis and provided new information on the growth rate of this Critically Endangered species. Filling in these knowledge gaps will aid in conservation measures for two important size classes of the R. djiddensis population as the species faces increasing targeted fishing pressure.

description: Populations of the macaroni penguin Eudyptes chrysolophus and the eastern rockhopper penguin E. filholi breeding at Marion Island (Prince Edward Islands) in the sub-Antarctic Indian Ocean decreased from 1994 to 2018. We examined their diets when rearing chicks during this period. There was substantial overlap in the diets of the two species, with crustaceans, dominated by the euphausiids Thysanoessa vicina and Euphausia vallentini, making up >80% of the diets by number and >60% by mass over the study period. The lanternfishes Krefftichthys anderssoni and Protomyctophum tenisoni were the most-commonly consumed fish in the diet of breeding macaroni penguins and dominated in their diet in three of the 25 years (1994, 1998 and 2014); they were also the most commonly consumed fish by eastern rockhopper penguins. Macaroni penguins consumed more of the amphipod crustacean Themisto gaudichaudii and the lanternfish Electrona carlsbergi as well as a greater diversity of and larger-sized fish than did eastern rockhopper penguins. The horsefish Zanclorhynchus spinifer was found in substantial amounts in the diet of eastern rockhopper penguins in 1996 and 1997. Despite annual variations in relative prey contributions to the diets, there were no significant long-term changes in the diet of either penguin species over the study period or when compared with an earlier assessment in 1982. We conclude that changes in the relative proportions of prey in the diets of these penguin species during breeding are unlikely to account for the recent declines in these penguin populations.

description: Giving our aging society it seems important that technical devices be also adapted to elderly users. Espe-cially with smartphones there is a need for optimization (e.g. larger icons, simpler labels, etc.) as they may offer numerous benefits to senior citizens (e.g. more independence and security in everyday life). The goal of our work was to let seniors assess the usability of such an optimized smartphone and compare it to a conventional model. Participants were given ten tasks to be completed both with a “senior smartphone” (i.e. the emporiaSMART) and a conventional smartphone (i.e. the iPhone 5S). Collected data included performance measures (i.e. completion rate, error rate, issues and time per task) as well as pref-erence data (based on a questionnaire and a short interview). Results show that the senior-friendly smartphone did out-perform the conventional device in all categories. In particular the bigger icons and simpler navigation made the senior device be perceived more usable.

description: Die Hauptfragen dieser Arbeit beschäftigen sich mit der Darstellung des Nationalsozialismus und der Verbrechen, die in dessen Namen begangen wurden: Wie wird der Holocaust in den Medien dargestellt? Welche Verbindungen werden zwischen Österreichern und dem Nationalsozialismus aufgezeigt? Medienberichte ermöglichen es, die Genese eines speziell österreichischen Geschichtsbildes nachzuvollziehen. Die vorliegende Arbeit greift den Fall des Franz Novak und die gegen ihn eingeleiteten Gerichtsverfahren auf, untersucht die Medienberichterstattung über ihn und zeigt, inwieweit er exemplarisch ist für den österreichischen Umgang mit der NS-Vergangenheit. Franz Novak verlässt 1934 nach dem missglückten Putsch Österreich. Erst mit dem Anschluss im März 1938 kehrt er zurück und nimmt fortan eine Schlüsselposition in der von Eichmann geleiteten „Zentralstelle für jüdische Auswanderung“ ein. In den darauf folgenden Jahren ist er für die Organisation der Deportation von Millionen Menschen zuständig. Nach 1945 geht er unter falschem Namen zurück nach Österreich, lebt von den Behörden so unbehelligt weiter, dass er 1957 wieder seinen richtigen Namen annimmt und seine österreichische Staatsbürgerschaft wiedererlangt. Erst im Jahr 1961 wird er in Wien verhaftet. Die Prozesse gegen Franz Novak finden mediales Interesse – er ist der „österreichische Eichmann“. Seine persönliche Schuld nachzuweisen ist schwierig, die Presse benutzt seine Person um die Geschichte des Holocausts der Leserschaft nahe zu bringen. Der Fall Novak zeigt das Grundproblem des Österreichs der Nachkriegszeit. Die Verdrängung der eigenen Schuld, die Abwälzung der Schuld auf „die Deutschen“ oder wahlweise „die Nazis“. Der Fall Novak ist also beides: eine Aufklärung über die Verbrechen des Nationalsozialismus und eine Verdrängung der österreichischen Schuld.

description: The occurrence of harmful algal blooms (HABs) is increasing in frequency and intensity in South African estuaries because of eutrophication. This study used DNA metabarcoding to identify the benthic diatom community structure in the eutrophic Sundays Estuary. The recurrent HAB phytoplankton species Heterosigma akashiwo was recorded at bloom concentrations (∼100 µg Chl a l−1) in the brackish, vertically stratified middle reaches of the estuary. In contrast, microphytobenthos biomass increased towards the upper reaches in response to elevated availability of total oxidised nitrogen (NOx) and increased sediment stability. A total of 76 diatom species were identified using the molecular technique. Seven known nutrient-tolerant diatom species indicate a preference for either ammonium or NOx enrichment. Benthic diatom community diversity (H′ < 1) and evenness (J′ < 0.25) were low in the brackish middle reaches of the estuary, where the HABs decreased available light. Heterosigma akashiwo has been found in previous studies to suppress the growth of co-occurring taxa. Future research efforts should focus on verifying this relationship over seasonal timescales given the dominance of H. akashiwo in spring/summer. As the persistently nutrient-enriched state and stable flow conditions of the Sundays Estuary is the key driver of change, management efforts should be geared towards re-establishing the estuary’s natural flow variations and to measures that can mitigate nutrient pollution.

In diesem Artikel wird dafür ein gestaltungsorientierter und parti-zipativer Forschungsansatz basierend auf dem Rahmenwerk für Design Science Research in Information Systems (DSR-IS) von Hevner et al. (2004) vorgestellt. Dessen Besonderheit liegt in der Verbindung von wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnis bei gleichzeitiger Zielsetzung praxisrelevante Probleme durch iterative Design- und Evaluierungszyklen eines Artefaktes zu lösen. Am Beispiel des AAL Forschungsprojekts 2PCS wird der Einsatz von DSR-IS zur Entwicklung des Artefakts 2PCS, einem tragbaren Service- und Notrufsystem aufgezeigt. Es zeigt sich, dass DSR-IS einen effektiven und fundierten Forschungs- und Gestaltungsrahmen für AAL-Systeme darstellt und somit stärker in die AAL Forschung integriert werden sollte.

description: Metabarcoding is an emerging method in which DNA barcoding is combined with next-generation sequencing to determine the biodiversity of taxonomically complex samples. We assessed the current state of DNA barcode reference databases for marine zooplankton in South Africa and undertook a metabarcoding analysis to determine the species composition of samples collected with plankton tow nets. Analysis of DNA sequences mined from the literature and in online barcode reference databases revealed incomplete records for all taxa examined. Barcode records were dominated by meroplanktonic species with commercially important life-history phases (fishes and decapod crustaceans) and by species occurring in easily accessible nearshore habitats. Holoplanktonic species were underrepresented, despite making up the bulk of zooplankton biodiversity, including most potential indicator species. Metabarcoding analysis of plankton samples could identify 45% of amplicon sequence variants to species level based on BOLD databases (123 species) and similar numbers using GenBank and the MIDORI COI classifier. Morphological analysis of samples could not achieve comparable resolution at species level, but with some exceptions it recovered similar classes of organisms to those found by metabarcoding. The need for integrative molecular/morphological studies to increase and validate barcode reference databases of key zooplankton taxa is recognised. Metabarcoding of marine zooplankton in South Africa has now been successfully undertaken and the methodology is expected to facilitate high-resolution monitoring of zooplankton biodiversity in pelagic ecosystems and accelerate the discovery of new species.

Dicarba mimetics of cystine-containing peptides
Creators: name: Van Lierop, Bianca Jane
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Peptide-based therapeutic agents represent a significant category in the pharmaceutical market. Problems associated with their poor stability and oral availability, however, necessitates the use of chemical engineering to design and synthesise novel peptidomimetics possessing improved physicochemical properties. Our interest in homogeneous catalysis led to the development of a toolbox of generic strategies for the construction of structurally enhanced peptides (Chapter 2). These strategies were ultimately used to create dicarba analogues of cystine-containing peptide targets, including complex examples that possess multiple disulfide bridges (Chapters 3 and 4). Peptide aggregation can hamper the synthesis of cyclic dicarba peptides via on-resin ring closing metathesis (RCM). Chapter 2 investigated the use of microwave-based heating to disrupt undesirable secondary structures, and was successfully used to generate a library of cystino-dicarba hybrids of the α-conotoxin family. For the construction of medium to large rings, the combined utility of microwave-irradiation and pseudoproline insertion was found to deliver a high yielding synthesis through localisation of reacting termini. This strategy was used to generate a cyclic human growth hormone fragment. A novel route to stable pseudoproline residues was also investigated in this chapter. Towards this end, a tandem metathesis-cyclisation strategy was used to deliver a high yielding and enantioselective synthesis of 5,5-dimethylproline dipeptides for direct incorporation into peptide sequences. At the close of Chapter 2, regioselective construction of multiple dicarba bridges was investigated via a tandem metathesis-hydrogenation approach. Here, microwave-accelerated RCM provided an expedient synthesis of bis-dicarba analogues belonging to the α-conotoxin family. Metathesis was also used to achieve macrolactamisation, N→C (head-to-tail) cyclisation, through the use of metathesis-labile tethers. Chapter 3 applied some of the preceding strategies to construct intrachain dicarba analogues of insulin superfamily molecules via on-resin, microwave-accelerated RCM. Cyclisation of the relaxin-3 A-chain peptide gave moderate conversion (50%) to the carbocyclic product without the inclusion of a turn-inducing residue. The primary sequence of INSL3, however, was modified to include a pseudoproline residue, and cyclised in higher yield (70%). Biological evaluation of the dicarba relaxin-3 and INSL3 analogues demonstrated equipotent binding and activity profiles, and conclusively showed, for the first time, that the intrachain bridge in these two peptide targets plays a structural role in maintaining a biologically active conformation. Significantly, both geometric isomers of each peptide were equipotent, which suggests that the relaxin-3 and INSL3 receptors are able to accommodate structural changes in this bridge region.

description: Autonomous driving offers possibilities to simplify and enhance the lives of many people. One group that could benefit a lot from autonomous driving is elderly people. In this contribution, we examine the opportunities and risks that elderly people see in autonomous driving. This was done by conducting semi-structured interviews with 10 participants which offered some insight into the acceptance of autonomous driving among elderly people. The identified perceived benefits and risks are validated by an online survey in which 113 people from 59 to 90 years of age have taken part. In general, elderly people are not rejecting the idea of using autonomous driving altogether. They see benefits in increased mobility and therefore greater independence at a higher age as it allows disabled people to regain lost mobility. However, our study also revealed privacy and security concerns, factors known to have a negative impact on technology adoption.

description: The demographic shift marks the beginning of a social transformation with far reaching implications (United Nations, 2015). A way to alleviate some of the challenges that come with this demographic shift is assistive technology (Broadbent, Stafford, & MacDonald, 2009). In order to increase the effectiveness of such technologies, their acceptance by target populations must be evaluated (Beer, Prakash, Mitzner, & Rogers, 2011). Our study examines technology acceptance of socially assistive robots among the future elderly (N=188). Applying a scenario-based survey, our study investigates the interplay between age, personality, resilience, and technology acceptance. Our findings suggest that personality plays a significant role in determining acceptance of technologies such as socially assistive robots. To the best of our knowledge, our study is one of the first that considers and evaluates resilience as a factor of technology acceptance.

description: Metabarcoding is an emerging method in which DNA barcoding is combined with next-generation sequencing to determine the biodiversity of taxonomically complex samples. We assessed the current state of DNA barcode reference databases for marine zooplankton in South Africa and undertook a metabarcoding analysis to determine the species composition of samples collected with plankton tow nets. Analysis of DNA sequences mined from the literature and in online barcode reference databases revealed incomplete records for all taxa examined. Barcode records were dominated by meroplanktonic species with commercially important life-history phases (fishes and decapod crustaceans) and by species occurring in easily accessible nearshore habitats. Holoplanktonic species were underrepresented, despite making up the bulk of zooplankton biodiversity, including most potential indicator species. Metabarcoding analysis of plankton samples could identify 45% of amplicon sequence variants to species level based on BOLD databases (123 species) and similar numbers using GenBank and the MIDORI COI classifier. Morphological analysis of samples could not achieve comparable resolution at species level, but with some exceptions it recovered similar classes of organisms to those found by metabarcoding. The need for integrative molecular/morphological studies to increase and validate barcode reference databases of key zooplankton taxa is recognised. Metabarcoding of marine zooplankton in South Africa has now been successfully undertaken and the methodology is expected to facilitate high-resolution monitoring of zooplankton biodiversity in pelagic ecosystems and accelerate the discovery of new species.

title: Präbiotische Polysaccharide aus Ocimum basilicum
Creators: name: Wenig, Laurenz
Year: 2008

description: Aus den Samenschalen von Ocimum basilicum kann durch Heiss-wasserextraktion und anschliessende Trocknung ein Polysaccharidgemisch gewonnen werden. Mit Natronlauge kann man aus diesem Gemisch eine alkalilösliche und eine alkaliunlösliche Polysaccharidfraktion gewinnen. Die alkalilösliche Polysaccharidfraktion enthält neutrale und saure Polysaccharide. Im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit stand die Isolierung der jeweils neutralen und sauren Polysaccharidfraktion mit Hilfe der Anionen-Austausch-Chromatographie von DEAE-Cellulose. Die so gewonnenen Fraktionen wurden parallel durch Dünnschichtchromatographie und Hochleistungs-Anionen-Austausch-Chromatographie (HPAEC) auf ihre Monosaccharid-zusammensetzung untersucht. Für das neutrale Polysaccharid konnten Glukose, Galaktose, Mannose und Arabinose als Bestandteile bestimmt werden. Das saure Polysaccharid enthält Xylose, Rhamnose, Arabinose, Spuren von Glukose und Galaktose und eine Uronsäure. Durch photometrische Messung wurde der Gesamturonsäuregehalt des sauren Polysaccharids bestimmt. Weiters wurde durch partielle Hydrolyse der Polysaccharide die Möglichkeit der Gewinnung von Oligosacchariden exploriert.
description: A polysaccharide mixture is recovered from the pericarp of Ocimum basilicum seeds by hot water extraction and subsequent air drying. With sodium hydroxide solution it is possible to isolate an alkaline soluble and an alkaline unsoluble polysaccharide fraction from this mixture. The alcaline soluble polysaccharide fraction consists of neutral and acidic polysaccharides. The focus of this work was the separation and the isolation of the neutral and acidic polysaccharide fractions by the means of anion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. These fractions were analyzed by thin layer chromatography and high performance anion exchange chromatography regarding their monosaccharide composition. The neutral polysaccharide consists of glucose, galactose, mannose and arabinose. The acidic polysaccharide consists of xylose, rhamnose, arabinose, traces of glucose and galactose and an uronic acid component which could be identified as 4-O-methyl-glucuronic acid. The total content of uronic acid was measured by photometry. In addition the possibility to recover oligosaccharides by partial hydrolysis of the polysaccharides has been explored.
