The exponential rise in the number of fungal genomes sequenced by next-generation sequencing techniques makes it necessary to increase efforts to correctly annotate and assign gene functions. There are two possibilities to explore a genome and its gene functions. The hypothesis-based method proves the function of already existing gene/allele candidates by targeted mutagenesis - so called reverse genetics. The basis of forward genetics approaches is the random mutagenesis of the genome, followed by screening of obtained mutants for the phenotype of interest, and identification of the mutated genes in the respective mutants. This strategy is hypothesis-generating, means it is necessary to verify the relationship between the detected mutations and the observed phenotype by targeted mutagenesis of the identified gene. We developed a toolbox for editing the genome of the rock inhabitant Knufia petricola [Eurotiomycetes, Chaetothyriales] that allows the study of the phenotypic characteristics of black fungi such as the regulation of pigment synthesis, general stress responses, oligotrophy, and the unusual modes of cell division by advanced reverse and forward genetics approaches. The toolbox includes the annotated genome sequence of strain A95, efficient strategies for CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing and live-cell imaging using genetically encoded fluorescent proteins, as well as protocols for -omics approaches and for simulation of mineral weathering. A forward genetics approach using transposon mutagenesis is currently developed for identifying essential genes. The established protocols and knowledge gained from K. petricola form a starting point for making other fungi from extreme environments accessible to genetic manipulation.
We present a prototype of a distributed POF sensing system for strain detection in road construction and civil engineering ready to be used in practical applications. The system is based on a cost-efficient digital incoherent optical frequency domain reflectometry (I-OFDR). In this approach, the strain-induced changes in the Rayleigh backscattering profile along a perfluorinated polymer optical fiber (PF-POF) are determined by measuring the complex transfer function of the sensing fiber using a compact digital data acquisition unit. The digital unit replaces an oversized vector network analyzer (VNA) enabling suitability of the measurement system for out-door use and providing a significant reduction of the total system costs at the same time. The entire sensor con-cept includes the use of geosynthetics with integrated PF-POFs as two-dimensional sensor structures for geotech-nical applications. The robustness and the functionality of the distributed POF I-OFDR sensors were proven in the field. The field test involved embedding of two geomats, each with two polymer optical sensor loops, into the embankment of the federal road B 91 in a section near Leipzig. The measurements conducted after the sensor-based geomats had been installed confirmed both the potential of such smart geosynthetics and the functionali-ty of the digital I-OFDR prototype.
Dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) melanin is produced by diverse Ascomycetes via slightly differing biosynthetic routes. The polyketide synthases (PKS) release the heptaketide YWA1, the hexaketide AT4HN or the pentaketide T4HN. The first two products are deacetylated by ‘yellowish-green’ hydrolases to T4HN, and T4HN is further converted by a core set of enzymes to DHN. Final polymerization steps are accomplished by multicopper oxidases. DHN melanogenesis is often regulated in a spatial and temporal fashion resulting e.g., in melanized reproduction and survival structures of the foliar plant pathogen Botrytis cinerea (Schumacher 2016, Mol Microbiol). In contrast, a polyphyletic group of Ascomycetes (microcolonial fungi/ black yeasts) dwelling in hostile habitats such as bare rock surfaces in hot and cold deserts, exhibits constitutive melanogenesis. Here, DHN melanin builds a protective layer around all vegetative cells thus contributing to the survival of diverse environmental stresses even without specialized reproduction structures. For studying the relevance of constitutive DHN melanogenesis for tolerance of abiotic and biotic stresses, adhesion to substrates and subsequent damage of colonized surfaces, the rock-inhabiting fungus Knufia petricola was chosen as gene functions in this fungus can be studied by CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing. The putative melanogenic genes were identified in the genome of K. petricola, deleted to confirm their involvement in DHN melanogenesis and co-expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae for reconstruction of the synthesis pathway. Phenotypes of DHN-deficient mutants are studied. Here, we will discuss the role of the DHN melanin layer on the outer cell wall in tolerating UV irradiation.

Additionally, we will introduce the innovative Ontology Playground, showcasing its role in fostering experimentation and exploration within the realm of ontology development.
The development of more powerful and more efficient lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is a key area in battery research, aiming to support the ever-increasing demand for energy storage systems. To better understand the causes and mechanisms of degradation, and thus the diminishing cycling performance and lifetime often observed in LIBs, in operando techniques are essential, because battery chemistry can be monitored non-invasively, in real time. Moreover, there is increasing interest in developing new battery chemistries. Beyond LIBs, sodium ion batteries (NIBs) have gained increasing interest in recent years, as they are a promising candidate to complement LIBs, owing to their improved sustainability and lower cost, while still maintaining high energy density.[1] Initial phases of NIB commercialisation have occurred in the past year. However, for the widespread commercialisation of NIBs, there are still challenges that need to be overcome in developing optimized electrode materials and electrolytes. For the development of such materials and greater understanding of sodium storage mechanisms, solid electrolyte interface (SEI) formation and stability, and degradation processes, in operando methodologies are crucial.
Among the techniques available for in operando analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and imaging (MRI) are becoming increasingly used to characterize the chemical composition of battery materials, study the growth and distribution of dendrites, and investigate battery storage and degradation mechanisms. In situ and in operando 1H, 7Li and 23Na NMR and MRI have recently been used to study LIBs and NIBs, identifying chemical changes in Li and Na species respectively, in metallic, quasimetallic and electrolytic environment as well as directly and indirectly studying dendrite formation in both systems.[2-4] The ability of NMR and MRI to probe battery systems across multiple environments can further be complemented by the enhanced spatial resolution of micro-computed X-ray tomography (μ-CT) which can provide insight into battery material microstructure and defect distribution.
Here, we report in operando 1H and 7Li NMR and MRI experiments that investigate LIB performance, and the identification of changes in the Li signal during charge cycling, as well as the observation of signals in both 1H and 7Li NMR spectra that we attribute to diminishing battery performance, capacity loss and degradation. Additionally, recent operando methodology are adapted and implemented to study Sn based anodes in NIBs. 23Na spectroscopy is performed to monitor the formation and evolution of peaks assigned to stages of Na insertion into Sn, while 1H MRI is used to indirectly visualize the volume expansion of Sn anodes during charge cycling. Battery operation and degradation is further explored in these NIBs, using μ-CT, where the anode is directly visualized to a higher resolution and the loss of electrolyte in the cell, during cycling is observed
The search for strong and tough oxide glasses is important for making safer, more environmentally friendly, thinner glass products. However, this task remains generally difficult due to the material’s inherent brittleness. In search for tougher glasses, fracture toughness (KIC) prediction models are helpful tools to screen for promising candidates.
In this work, a novel model to predict KIC via the fracture surface energy, γ, is presented. Our approach uses readily available crystallographic structure data of the glass’s isochemical crystal and tabled diatomic chemical bond energies, D0. The method assumes that γ of a glass equals the fracture surface energy of the most likely cleavage plane of the crystal. Calculated values were not only in excellent agreement with those calculated with a former well-working model, but also demonstrates a remarkable equivalence between crystal cleavage planes and glass fracture surfaces.
Finally, the effectiveness of fracture toughness enhancement by chemical substitution is discussed based on our results and alternative toughening strategies will be suggested.
The search for strong and tough oxide glasses is important for making safer, environment-friendlier, thinner glasses. As fracture toughness experiments in brittle materials are complicated and time-consuming , modelling glass fracture surface energy, G, and fracture toughness, KIc, is of interest for screening promising candidates. Inspired by Rouxel´s idea of preferred crack growth along cutting weakest bonds within a glass structure and a study by Tielemann et al. , which indicates a correlation between crystal fracture surface and glass-crys¬tal interfacial energies, we present a new approach for predicting G. Combining both ideas, we used diatomic bond energies and readily available crystallographic structure data for estimating G. The proposed method assumes that G of the glass equals the surface fracture energy of the cleavage plane in its respective isochemical crystal. We calculated G- values for more than 25 iso-chemical silicate systems and compared them to calculated values from Rouxel’s widely used procedure, which is well working and based on glass densities and chemical bond energies. Not only does our model yields good agreement with [3], but it also enables an estimation for glasses with unknown density and can therefore contribute to broaden the data basis for glass property modelling tools. Most interestingly, however, this agreement indicates an interesting similarity between cleavage planes in a crystal and its corresponding glass state in terms of fracture processes.
Results of an extended TMF test program on grade P92 steel in the temperature range of 620 ◦C–300 ◦C, comprising in-phase (IP) and out-of-phase (OP) tests, partly performed with symmetric dwells at Tmax/Tmin, are presented. In contrast to previous studies, the low-strain regime is also illuminated, which approaches flexible operation in a power plant with start/stop cycles. At all strain amplitudes, the material performance is characterized by continuous cyclic softening, which is retarded in tests at lower strains but reaches similar magnitudes in the course of testing. In the investigated temperature range, the phase angle does not affect fatigue life in continuous experiments, whereas the IP condition is more detrimental in tests with dwells. Fractographic analyses indicate creep-dominated and fatigue-dominated damage for IP and OP, respectively. Analyses of the (micro)hardness distribution in the tested specimens suggest an enhanced microstructural softening in tests with dwell times for the low- but not for the high-strain regime. To rationalize the obtained fatigue data, the fracturemechanics-based DTMF concept, which was developed for TMF life assessment of ductile alloys, was applied. It is found that the DTMF parameter correlates well with the measured fatigue lives, suggesting that subcritical growth of cracks (with sizes from a few microns to a few millimeters) governs failure in the investigated range of strain amplitudes.
Im statistischen Mittel steht eine Windkraftanlage (WKA) in Deutschland alle 6 Jahre wegen eines Schadens an den Rotorblättern und verursacht Kosten von 20k€-40k€ infolge Ertragsausfall und Reparaturkosten. Bei über 30.000 WKA in Deutschland verursacht dies jährlichen Kosten von 100-200 Mio. €. Zu 70% sind die Ursachen Fertigungsfehler. Diesem Themenkomplex widmet sich FB-5.3 in Kooperation mit FBs der Zerstörungsfreien Prüfung (Abt. 8) schon seit Jahren.
Im aktuellen Projekt geht es um einen vorzeitigen Verschleiß der Rotorblätter infolge der Verwendung gealterter Glasfaser-Rovings. (GF). Die Entwicklung moderner Windkraftanlagen hatte in Europa seinen Ursprung in den 90er Jahren. OEMs und GF-Hersteller waren dicht beisammen. Die Globalisierung des Marktes führt heute zu einer weltweiten Verschiffung der GF in feucht-warmen Containern. Je nach Beschaffenheit (Chemie) der Schlichten (Oberflächenbehandlung) von GF können diese stark altern (Hydrolyse-Effekte) und die Festigkeit kann im Bauteil um bis zu 50% abgemindert sein.
In einer Kooperation mit der Rotorblattallianz, einem Zusammenschluss der OEMs, Halbzeugherstellern und Forschungsinstituten, wurden schon vor 5 Jahren in einem Forschungsprojekt (FB-5.3; VH 5538) die chemischen Mechanismen der Alterung exemplarisch für eine Glasfaser-Roving-Type aufgeklärt. Im aktuellen Projekt (FB-5.3; VH 5304) wird ein beschleunigtes Alterungsverfahren (erhöhte Temperatur und Feuchte) am Roving im un-impregnierten Zustand entwickelt und die Festigkeit nachfolgend nach Einbettung in eine Epoxid-Harz-Matrix bestimmt. Je nach Alterungszustand zeigt sich eine Abnahme der Zwischenfaserbruchfestigkeit von bis zu 50%. Nicht alle Glasfaser-Roving-Typen zeigen diesen Effekt. Es ist gelungen für OEMs und Halbzeughersteller ein handhabbares Verfahren zur innerbetrieblichen Qualitätssicherung zu entwickeln, da die wenigsten Firmen über komplexe Analyseverfahren, wie an der BAM, verfügen.
Sustainable product policy is one pillar of the European Green Deal and the Circular Economy Action Plan. The European Commission is to begin to address recycling, recycled content and repair under the Ecodesign Directive and very likely in the announced European Sustainable Products Regulation. In addition, initiatives on recyclability and other aspects of sustainable products can be observed in France under the Ecomodulation Approach for some electrical and electronic products. Neither the Commission's ambitions nor the Ecomodulation Approach have so far led to a crucially better ecodesign of products.
Therefore, at the EU level, indices for reparability (already developed for smartphones and tablets), recyclability and recycled content of products are being discussed within the Ecodesign legislative framework in an attempt to achieve better ecodesign through advanced consumer purchasing decisions. The product standards requested by the European Commission to assess the recyclability (EN4555) and recycled content (EN4557) of energy-related products have already been published, but are purely based on a mass-based approach. Material-specific aspects such as the environmental impact or the financial, technical and redesign efforts required by manufacturers to facilitate the recycling and use of recycled materials are not addressed. Materials that are easy to recycle and use and have a high recycled content, such as copper, are treated in the same way as plastics that are difficult to recycle and use in products as post-consumer recycled plastics. Including such aspects would be essential to trigger environmentally relevant and significant improvements in product design.
Der Vortrag fasst die Schnittmenge zwischen Normung und Politik bezüglich einer zirkulären Wirtschaft (Circular Economy) zusammen. Es wird an konkreten Schlüsselgremien und praktischen Beispielen gezeigt, wie Circular Economy bereits heute durch Normung gelingen kann und welche Zuarbeit durch die Politik von den Normungsgremien erbeten wird.
With the continuous release of anthropogenic pollutants into the environment, substantial risks for the human health arise. Concerning are especially persistent substances (e.g., PFAS) as they accumulate in food chains which inevitably result in the transgression of negative impact threshold levels. Environmental Analytical Chemsitry interfaces all disciplines of Risk Assessment. Therefore it is the important tool to identify, monitor, and remediate environmental pollutants. Based on the example of PFAS, a workflow to tackle environmental pollutants in a retro- and pro-spective way is shown. Within the project, the worldwide situation of environmental pollutants will be illustrated for the example of PFAS. As the major discipline to confront the problem, analytical chemistry will be shown as a key tool for contesting PFAS and creating safe-by-design materials in the future.
Ellipsometry is a highly valuable technology for bridging different measurement methods. As a fast, highly sensitive, and non-destructive optical technique with low environmental requirements, it is ideal for transporting measurement accuracy and for up-scaling measurements in the production environment. It can be used for highly precise determination of properties, material identity and correctness confirmation, as well as defect detection.
Comparable, traceable, and accurate electrical measurements, especially at small scales are one of the biggest challenges in the development of the electrical and electronic devices of the future.
In this project, we develop structured thin layer systems of the transparent conductive material indium tin oxide (ITO) to prove the concept of using these systems as standards for conductivity and permittivity. The layers are produced in a reactive magnetron sputtering process from raw ITO targets with additional oxidation achieved by oxygen injection. We present results of a study correlating the coating process conditions with the properties of the final layer material. We found that especially the temperature development during coating is of key importance and determines the layer properties to a large extent. We will discuss questions of homogeneity and reproducibility of the coating processes used. The finished layers undergo lithographic structuring and etching to produce patterns to serve as reference structures for scanning probe electrical measurements. TCOs have a large variety of applications. In this work we also study the usability of ITO for other purposes and investigate the stability of this material under application conditions.
The combination of non-target analysis (NTA) based on HPLC-ESI-MS with elemental fluorine speciation analysis based on HPLC-PARCI-MS for the identification and quantification of (unknown) organofluorines in environmental samples is associated with several advantages e.g., reduced non-target data treatment workflow and quantification.
PFASs compromise persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic properties and are hence, environmental contaminants of emerging concern. Thus, procedures for identifying potential sources of the entrance of these compounds into the environment, identification of new organofluorine species, and closing mass balances need urgent development. The intrinsic fluorine tag appears in a sizable fraction of these and other xenobiotics, making elemental speciation desirable for quantitative NTA in these areas. Current non-target approaches based on ESI-HRMS suffer from a lack of data mining algorithms for identification of PFASs with low fluorine mass percentages. Furthermore, low ionization efficiencies of the compounds hamper detection limits.
Hence, the proposed combination of simultaneous HPLC-ESI-MS and HPLC-PARCI-MS via split-stream coupling is a promising approach for environmental PFAS monitoring. Furthermore, it could serve as an important analytical procedure to set up limiting values in compliance with the desired PFAS ban of the European Union.

Inconel 718 (IN718) is a traditional age-hardenable nickel-based alloy that has been increasingly processed by additive manufacturing (AM) in recent years. In the as-solidified condition, IN718 exhibits chemical segregation and the undesired Laves phase, requiring a solution annealing (SA) prior to aging. The material produced by AM does not respond to the established thermal routines in the same way as conventionally produced IN718, and there is still no consensus on which routine yields optimal results. This work aims to provide a fundamental understanding of the heat treatment (HT) response by continuously monitoring the microstructural evolution during SA via time-resolved synchrotron x-ray diffraction, complemented by ex-situ scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The samples were produced by laser powder bed fusion to a geometry of 10x20x90 mm³, from which Ø1x5 mm³ cylindric specimens were extracted. Two different scanning strategies – incremental 67° rotations, Rot, and alternating 0°/67° tracks, Alt – were used, leading to two different as-built conditions. 1-hour SAs were carried out in the beamline ID22 of the ESRF at 50 KeV. Two SA temperatures, SA1 = 1020 °C, and SA2 = 1080 °C were tested for each scanning strategy. Data were processed using the software PDIndexer. In the as-built state, all samples showed typical subgrain columnar cell structures with predominant Nb/Mo segregation and Laves phase at the cell walls, as seen by SEM. The Alt scan induced higher intensity on the Laves peaks than the Rot scan, suggesting a greater content of Laves. Chemical homogenization in the SA was largely achieved during the heating ramp (Fig. 1). SA2 eliminated the Laves peaks just before reaching 1080 °C, and mitigated differences between Rot and Alt samples. On the other hand, SA1 induced the precipitation of the generally detrimental δ phase, also observed by SEM. Furthermore, the Rot scan showed higher δ peak intensities than the Alt scan, indicating a higher content of δ in the latter. No signs of recrystallization were observed in any of the investigated SAs.
Understanding the fundamentals of bioreceptivity enables the developement of functionalized materials. Concrete as the most used building material worldwide is of special interest as microbially greened panels may represent an alternative to classic façade greening with plants.
As standards are not ye established, material characterization in context as well as bioreceptivity assessment itself has been proven to be difficult. The presentation reviews first results of methods adapted for this application.
Monopile-Gründungen sind die mit Abstand am häufigsten verwendete Gründungskonstruktion für Offshore-Windenergieanlagen. Ein wesentliches Problem bei der Bemessung ist das lokale Beulen des Gründungspfahls, welches typischerweise im Bereich der Bettung auftritt. Aufgrund der Nichtlinearität der Bettungsrandbedingung sind klassische Bemessungsansätze nicht anwendbar, so dass der Bemessungsingenieur auf eine vollständig numerische Berechnung zurückgreifen muss. In diesem Vortrag wird eine experimentelle Versuchskampagne zur Erzeugung von Kalibrierungsdaten für solche numerischen Modelle vorgestellt. Eine ausführlichere Darstellung findet sich im gleichnamigen Artikel.
Die additive Fertigung (AM) durch schweißtechnische Verfahren eröffnet vielfach ökonomische Vorteile für eine ressourceneffiziente Bauteilherstellung. Gerade hinsichtlich der Homogenität und Anisotropie der resultierenden Schweißgefüge und den damit verbundenen Eigenschaften gibt es noch offene Fragestellungen. Die Einstellung der finalen Bauteilgeometrie und Oberflächengüte erfordert den komplementären Einsatz abtragender Fertigungsschritte. Hochleistungslegierungen auf der Basis von Nickel oder Kobalt sind aufgrund ihrer niedrigen Wärmeleitfähigkeit verbunden mit hoher Festigkeit und Zähigkeit schwer spanbar. Eine gezielte Gefügebeeinflussung mittels Modifikation der AM-Schweißzusatzwerkstoffe und der Einsatz des ultraschallunterstützten Fräsens (US) bietet das Potential insgesamt die Zerspanungssituation zu verbessern. Dieser Lösungsansatz unter Gewährleistung des Erhalts der geforderten Werkstoff- bzw. Bauteileigenschaften ist Untersuchungsgegenstand eines Gemeinschaftsvorhabens (IGF-Nr. 20.979 N/DVS-Nr. 1.3211) der BAM und TU Clausthal/ISAF. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt Ergebnisse für die beiden untersuchten FeNi- und CoCr-Legierungen sowie wesentliche Zusammenhänge zwischen Legierungsmodifikation, entstehender Gefügemorphologie und Zerspanungseigenschaften der mittels MAG additiv gefertigter Proben vor. Das größte Potential für die Modifikation zeigten Zr und Hf. Die Zulegierung in das Schweißgut erfolgte durch Beschichtung von Massivdrähten sowie durch Herstellung von Fülldrähten.
Knowing phonon properties is beneficial for predicting low thermal conductivity thermoelectric materials. Employing DFT consumes lots of computational resources. Using ML-driven interatomic potentials (MLIP, e.g., GAP) opens up a faster route, but most potentials are specifically tailored to a certain compound. We aim to generalize the MLIP generation in a Python code-based workflow, combining automatic DFT runs with automated GAP fits. Automation enables easier tests, benchmarks, and validation.
