T1 - Zerfallen, zerteilt, zerschnitten: die Humboldt Fragmente IX-XII und ihre Rekonstruktion N2 - In Berlin befinden sich Fragmente indigener Bilderhandschriften, die Alexander von Humboldt aus Mexiko mitbrachte. Fast alle stammen sie aus der ehemaligen Sammlung des Italieners Lorenzo Boturini, deren Reste heute über mehrere Länder verstreut sind. Der hohe Fragmentierungsgrad sowie ungeklärte Fragen zur Provenienz und Genese der Bruchstücke machen es schwierig, sie zu rekontextualisieren. Um dies dennoch zu erreichen, kommen einander ergänzende moderne natur- und kulturwissenschaftliche Methoden zum Einsatz. Als Beispiel einer Neuzuordnung werden die Humboldt-Fragmente IX-XII vorgestellt. Dass die vier Bruchstücke verwandt sind, wurde schon lange vermutet, nicht jedoch, dass sie zusammen mit einem nicht mehr vorhandenen Mittelteil ein einziges Dokument gebildet haben. Die Gründe für eine derartige Rekonstruktion werden als Ergebnis der Forschungsarbeiten diskutiert.

Ectoine possesses protecting properties and stabilizes proteins as well as whole cells against stresses like ionizing radiation and cytotoxins. These properties make ectoine a highly demanded ingredient in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. To date H. elongata is the industrial Producer strain of ectoine, but several metabolic factors for optimum ectoine production remain to be explored. In this work, we used up to date Metabolic engineering approaches following the ‘Push, Pull, Block – strategy’ to examine targets that contribute to ectoine synthesis. Firstly, the basics of glucose catabolism were inspected to PUSH and enhance carbon flow towards ectoine synthesis. Secondly, lysine biosynthesis was targeted to BLOCK a pathway that is competing for precursors with ectoine synthesis. Thirdly, the mechanosensitive (MS) channels of H. elongata have been examined as possible excretion routes for ectoine. An overexpression of the ectoine excretion channels potentially could PULL out product at the end of ectoine synthesis and increase overall ectoine flux. For the interrogation of central metabolic pathways, we established the new molecular tool CRISPR-mediated interference (CRISPRi) for targeted modulation of gene expression. PUSH Glucose catabolism through the Entner-Doudoroff (ED) and Emden-Meyerhof-Parnas (EMP) pathway was targeted with CRISPRi and examined on gene expression level for ist response to changing salinity and different carbon sources. Changing salinity did not influence gene expression levels of glucose catabolism but the carbon source glucose triggered glycolysis through the (ED) pathway. When gene expression of the ED pathway was downregulated with CRISPRi, the growth rates remained constant. The observations indicate a metabolic overflow mechanism for glycolysis, in which fluxes are constantly high - even at lower salinity when no resources are demanded for ectoine synthesis. The further analysis of glucose to product conversion rates will advise optimum conditions for future industrial cultivation processes. BLOCK Lysine biosynthesis was downregulated with CRISPRi, which led to a significant increase in ectoine production. Hence, the blockage of lysine biosynthesis would be a valuable strategy for the optimization of the industrial producer strain in future studies. PULL MS channels and ectoine regulation are inevitably connected in osmoadaptation. Therefore, ectoine excretion, growth performance and gene expression levels of the MS channels were monitored in steady state conditions and in response to osmotic shock in the wildtype strain and in a MS channel deletion mutant. We observed that the MS channels were essential for the survival of osmotic shock but surprisingly their presence reduced cell growth under high salinity. The MS channels were only partially responsible for ectoine excretion. Thus, alternative ectoine excretion channels must exist and remain to be explored.

In this study, the weathering-affecting, rock-inhabiting fungus, Knufia petricola A95 and the Fe-bearing olivine (Fe0.2Mg1.8SiO4) were selected to investigate fungi-induced effects on mineral dissolution. The availability of a melanin-deficient mutant (ΔKppks) of K. petricola A95, that produced more extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) than the wild type (WT), enabled comparative studies of the role of melanin and EPS in weathering processes.

Typologies of Arabic inks and their detection limits N2 - In this poster we will present some results of a research projects dealing with Arabic recipes of black inks. To improve conservation practices of Arabic manuscripts we have assessed the feasibility of the recipes collected from many Arabic sources on bookmaking and reproduced the most common inks. Ink samples were then artificially aged and analysed using an array of analytical techniques, mostly non-invasive, in order to build a database of Arabic inks and their ingredients and also to verify the detection limits of the portable equipment employed. We will show procedures and problems concerning the identification of ink types and ingredients using reflectography (in Vis, IR and UV), X-Ray Fluorescence, Infrared and Raman spectroscopy. The focus will be in particular on squid ink and mixed inks – both in the form of carbon inks with the addition of tannins and of a mixture of carbon and iron gall inks – which are particularly difficult to detect. We will also examine the results of iron gall inks made with iron filings or nails instead of vitriol, the various precursor used to extract gallic acid that are mentioned in the sources as surrogates of gall nuts.

Quarantine of potentially infested objects can be logistically challenging. Anoxia under controlled Nitrogen atmosphere is a most gentle but also time-consuming method to eradicate insect pests in all kinds of different materials. Treatment results are usually affected by duration, temperature, humidity and residual oxygen content. During a two-year research project, 34 relevant pest insect species of all developmental stages were tested in different materials (wood, paper, wool) to monitor treatment success and to determine optimum treatment parameters. Duration of treatment ranged from one to three weeks at temperatures of 20–27 °C. As expected, results showed significant differences in mortality among tested species. Highest tolerance of hypoxic conditions was found in elder larvae of Hylotrupes bajulus. Although this species is an unlikely museum pest, it may serve as an overall most tolerant reference. Anobiids and other wood boring beetles are more often an issue related to cultural heritage. A combination of three weeks exposure time at maximum 0.5% residual oxygen and 24 °C, alternatively 1% residual oxygen and 27 °C are recommended for infested artefacts. Imbedding materials in general had no influence on mortality. This study was funded by Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU).

T1 - Analyse von Humboldt Codices aus Mizquiahuala im Vergleich zu Fragmenten in Mexiko und Paris N2 - Unter den von Humboldt in Amerika erworbenen Schriftstücken der Kolonialzeit findet sich eine Tributliste aus dem Jahr 1569, die der Otomí Bevölkerung aus dem Ort Mizquahuala im Staat Hidalgo/ Mexiko zugeordnet wird. Sie ist in Form eines Kalenders ausgeführt, Wochentage und verschiedene Produkte lassen sich unterscheiden. Eduard Seler beschreibt dieses Manuskript zusammen mit einer weiteren Tributliste, die in Inhalt und Zeichnung anders gestaltet ist, jedoch ebenfalls aus dieser Region stammt. Mit den für die Analyse von Manuskripten bewährten Untersuchungsmethoden werden Papier und Farbmittel identifiziert. Hierzu zählen Raman-, FTIR-, Röntgenfluoreszenz- und VIS- Spektroskopie. Charakteristisch für die Herstellung von schriftlichen Dokumenten in der Kolonialzeit von Amerika ist die Verwendung von indigenem Material wie Papier aus Baumrinde und Pflanzenfarben zusammen mit den aus Europa bekannten Materialien. Geklärt wird, welche Auswahl von Farbstoffen zur Herstellung der Dokumente genutzt wurde, die diese als Gruppe klassifizieren könnte. Die den beiden Fragmenten zugeordneten Farbmaterialien sowie formale und inhaltliche Aspekte lassen vermuten, dass zwei weitere Schriftstücke der Berliner Sammlung `Manuscripta Americana´, deren Herkunft nicht bekannt ist, mit ihnen in Beziehung gebracht werden können. Stilistisch gleiche Fragmente befinden sich zudem in Mexiko, Paris und den USA. Im Vergleich dieser Fragmente untereinander wird diskutiert, inwieweit die über die Materialanalyse identifizierten spezifischen Farbstoffe einen Hinweis auf eine gemeinsame lokale Herkunft zulassen.

The starting point is the stock of Dutch drawings possessed by the Klassik Stiftung Weimar, whose extent (ca. 1,400 items) and character make it one of the most significant outside the Netherlands. The focus here is on drawings that were executed with red chalk. This drawing material has different functions - one of which is the use as a transmission material. The methodological approach is double: first, the scientific indexing of this stock. The foundations for this, along with classic analysis of style, are innovative material-scientific methods of investigation. T2 - Red Chalk Drawings.

Morphologically simple microbial biofilms were the first settlers on these inhospitable surfaces at times when the Earth was inhabited only by microorganisms and the solid substrates represented only by natural rock surfaces i.e. lithosphere. Miniature, self-sufficient microbial ecosystems continue to develop on subaerial (i.e. air-exposed) solid surfaces at all altitudes and latitudes where direct contact with the atmosphere and solar radiation occurs – on rocks, mountains, buildings, monuments, solar panels. All these sub-aerial biofilms develop under fluctuating and hostile conditions – and thus frequently harbour stress-tolerant black fungi inherently able to cope with the stresses of bright sunlight and constantly changing atmospheric conditions. Black fungi – a polyphyletic group of Ascomycetes– accumulate the dark pigment DHN melanin, diverse carotenoids and mycosporines in their cells and thus successfully colonise sunlight-flooded habitats from phyllosphere to rock surfaces. Various chemical and physical extremes and fluctuating environments belong to the challenges effectively mastered by black fungi. In our laboratory we isolate novel black fungi from man-made habitats like building materials and solar panels. Using Knufia petricola A95 as a model we conduct experiments to clarify interactions of black fungi with inorganic substrates. We use available mutants to determine the functional consequences of changes in the outer cell wall envelopes – from excreted EPS to layers of protective pigments. A genetic toolbox to manipulate this Chaetothyriales representative is in further development. Our long-term goal is to understand the fundamental mechanisms how black fungi are able (i) to adhere to dry atmosphere-exposed surfaces, (ii) to survive multiple stresses and (iii) to change the underlying substrates including rocks.
