This application note presents how EnviroESCA can be used to analyze bacterial samples under near ambient pressure conditions in various states of hydration using different levels of humidity. Such investigations of bacterial cell wall surfaces in their hydrated state are essential for studying biological interfaces at work.
The use of innovative near-ambient pressure (NAP-)XPS instrumentation allows the detailed analysis of irregularly-surfaced biofilms. NAP-XPS enables the surface analysis of bacterial samples in their natural hydrated state without complex sample preparation techniques such as freeze-drying or fast-freezing, which are needed for XPS analysis in ultrahigh vacuum.
Universität Berlin Radiation damage to biomolecules such as DNA, is the reason to treat cancer via radiation therapy. The understanding of the molecular processes and the quantification of the underlying damaging mechanisms is necessary to develope more efficient irradiation protocols for cancer therapy. Thereby damage to DNA is of key interest due to its central role in reproduction and mutation. Due to the high amount of water in biological tissue, most of the damage is caused by the secondary particles which are produced by the interaction of ionizing radiation with water. Thereby a multitude of species are produced, e.g. kinetic low energy electrons, prehydrated electrons, OH-radicals and ions. The quantification of the contribution to DNA damage by the various species is of interest. Here we present an experimental approach to disentangle their relative DNA strand break yields. Plasmid DNA (pUC19 ) is irradiated in water with electrons under the presence of different scavengers. The presented preliminary results reveal the relative contributions of OH-radicals, low energy electrons and prehydrated electrons and their DNA single and double strand break yields.
Understanding the mechanism of interactions of nanomaterials at biointerfaces is a crucial issue to develop new antimicrobial vectors. In this work, a series of water-soluble fullerene-polyglycerol sulfates (FPS) with different fullerene/polymer weight ratios and varying numbers of polyglycerol sulfate branches are synthesized, characterized, and their interactions with two distinct surfaces displaying proteins involved in target cell recognition are investigated. The combination of polyanionic branches with a solvent exposed variable hydrophobic core in FPS proves to be superior to analogs possessing only one of these features in preventing interaction of vesicular Stomatitis virus coat glycoprotein (VSV-G) with baby hamster kidney cells serving as a model of host cell. Interference with L-selectin-ligand binding is dominated by the negative charge, which is studied by two assays: a competitive surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based inhibition assay and the leukocyte cell (NALM-6) rolling on ligands under flow conditions. Due to possible intrinsic hydrophobic and electrostatic effects of synthesized compounds, pico- to nanomolar half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) are achieved. With their highly antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties, together with good biocompatibility, FPS are promising candidates for the future development towards biomedical applications.
Mit der Zentrifugentechnologie ist seit einigen Jahren ein neuartiges Mehr-Proben-Prüf-verfahren auf dem Markt etabliert, welches die klassische Zugprüfung in den Trommelrotor einer Tischzentrifuge überträgt. In der Beanspruchung auf Zug ist die Prüfung der Verbundfestigkeit seit 2017 nach DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 akkreditiert, wobei die Verbundfestigkeit von Klebungen direkt bestimmt wird und in Abhängigkeit von den Versagensformen Rückschlüsse auf die Klebfestigkeit von Klebstoffen/Klebebändern oder die Haftfestigkeit von Beschichtungen gezogen werden können.
Bei der zerstörenden Beanspruchung auf Zug ist zu beachten, dass es sich bei der Verbundfestigkeit um eine Systemeigenschaft handelt, d.h. nicht nur die chemischen und topografischen Oberflächeneigenschaften, sondern auch die plasto-elastischen Volumeneigenschaften des Klebstoffes und der Fügeteile haben Einfluss auf die ermittelten Kennwerte. Dabei ist eine qualitative Bestimmung der Versagensformen und Bruchbilder nach DIN EN ISO 10365 zwingend erforderlich, um eine Aussage über die Art des Versagens treffen zu können.
Mit der Erweiterung der Zentrifugentechnologie um Beanspruchungen auf Druck wurde dann der Nachweis erbracht, dass auch die klassische Härteprüfung in einer Zentrifuge als Mehr-Proben-Prüfung durchgeführt werden kann. Im Verbundvorhaben QUO VADIS PLUS werden derzeit invasive Beanspruchungen auf Druck zur Bestimmung der Härte von Materialien, der Kompressibilität von Metallschäumen sowie der Kompaktierbarkeit von Pulvern untersucht, was das Anwendungspotential der Zentrifugentechnologie nochmals erweitert. Dazu gehören auch kombinierte Beanspruchungen wie Zug-Scher- und Druck-Scher-Prüfungen.
Die Verbundfestigkeit von CFK-Platten in Abhängigkeit der Beanspruchungsart (Zug vs. Zug-Scher) bzw. der Faserorientierung (0°, 45°, 90°), die Klebfestigkeit von Klebstoffen bzw. Klebebändern auf unterschiedlichen Fügeteilwerkstoffen in Abhängigkeit von der Vorbehandlung, die Haftfestigkeit optischer Schichten auf Kunststoffen, die Bestimmung der Vickers-, Brinell- bzw. Kugeldruck-Härte sowie die Kompressibilität von metallischen Schäumen und Federn werden als ausgewählte Beispiele diskutiert.

In der Beanspruchung auf Zug ist die Prüfung der Verbundfestigkeit mittels CAT-Technologie (centrifugal adhesion testing) an der BAM seit 2017 nach DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 akkreditiert, wobei die Verbundfestigkeit von Klebungen direkt bestimmt wird und in Abhängigkeit von den Versagensformen Rückschlüsse auf die Klebfestigkeit von Klebstoffen/Klebebändern oder die Haftfestigkeit von Beschichtungen gezogen werden können.
UCST-type thermoresponsive polymers (i.e. that phase separate from solution upon cooling) present a tremendous potential not only in aqueous media where they can be used in drug delivery, diagnostic and microfluidic applications, but also in water/alcohol mixtures, where they can be used for instance in sensing systems for alcohol-soluble drugs. However, only a few thermoresponsive polymers have been reported that present an UCST in a relevant temperature range and “green” solvents such as water or ethanol.
In this context, acrylamide-based monomers can be very useful building blocks for designing novel non-ionic UCST-type polymers because of their hydrophilic nature (with the appropriate side chain) and propensity to form hydrogen bonds. We will present our latest results on the UCST-type thermoresponsive behaviour of acrylamide- and 2,6-diaminopyridine-based homopolymers and copolymers in water or water/alcohol mixtures, and give some insights about the rational design of UCST polymers relying on H-bonding.
The quantification of radiation induced damage to DNA in aqueous en-
vironment is of fundamental interest for dosimetry and its application
in radiation-therapy and protection. We present a combined experi-
mental and simulational approach to quantify and compare radiation
induced damage to biomolecules in liquid environment for a wide range
of primary radiation sources e. g. photons, electrons or ions and tar-
gets, such as DNA, proteins or cells.[1] To show its viability, we will
apply this method to an experimentally challenging systems, the di-
rect irradiation of plasmid DNA (pUC19) in water with electrons as
primary particles. Here we combine Geant4 electron-scattering simula-
tions with calculations concerning the diffusion and convection induced
movement of the biomolecules, within a coarse-grained model of the
irradiated liquid. Additionally a microscopic target model for the plas-
mid DNA based on the relation of lineal energy and radiation quality
is used to calculate the effective target volume.
The presence of nano-scaled particles in food and food-related products has drawn attention to the oral uptake of nanoparticles and their interactions with biological systems. In the present study, we used a toxicoproteomics approach to allow for the untargeted experimental identification and comparative analysis of cellular Responses in rat liver after repeated-dose treatment with silver nanoparticles, ions, and the coating matrix used for particle stabilization.
The proteomic analysis revealed treatment-related effects caused by exposure to silver in particulate and ionic form. Both silver species induced similar patterns of signaling and metabolic alterations. Silver-induced cellular alterations comprised, amongst others, proteins involved in metal homeostasis, oxidative stress response, and energy metabolism. However, we discovered that secondary nano-scaled structures were formed from ionic silver. Furthermore, also the coating matrix alone gave rise to the formation of nano-scaled particles.
The present data confirm, complement, and extend previous knowledge on silver toxicity in rodent liver by providing a comprehensive proteomic data set. The observation of secondary particle formation from nonparticle controls underlines the difficulties in separating particle-, ion-, and matrix coating-related effects in biological systems. Awareness of this issue will support proper evaluation of nanotoxicology-related data in the future.
Commercial grade-1 titanium samples (Ti, 99.6%) were treated using three alternative methods, (i) femtosecond laser processing, (ii) thermal heat treatment, and (iii) electrochemical anodization, respectively, resulting in the formation of differently conditioned superficial titanium oxide layers. The laser processing (i) was carried out by a Ti:sapphire laser (pulse duration 30 fs, central wavelength 790 nm, pulse repetition rate 1 kHz) in a regime of generating laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS). The experimental conditions (laser fluence, spatial spot overlap) were optimized in a sample-scanning setup for the processing of several square-millimeters large surface areas covered homogeneously by these nanostructures. The differently oxidized titanium surfaces were characterized by optical microscopy, micro Raman spectroscopy, variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry, and instrumented indentation testing. The tribological performance was characterized in the regime of mixed friction by reciprocating sliding tests against a sphere of hardened steel in fully formulated engine oil as lubricant. The specific tribological performance of the differently treated surfaces is discussed with respect to possible physical and chemical mechanisms.
