Physicochemical parameters, sugar, betacyanin, and phenolic contents, and antioxidant activity were analyzed over 28 days at 4 °C and compared to a non-fermented pulp, and to a pulp fermented with Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BB-12 (BB-12). Volatile compounds were identified using HS-SPME/GC-MS. Probiotic viability during storage and survival through in vitro-simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) stress were assessed. Red pitaya pulp, rich in moisture (85.83 g/100 g), carbohydrates (11.65 g/100 g), and fibers (2.49 g/100 g), supported fermentation by both strains. F-19 and BB-12 lowered pH, with F-19 showing stronger acidification, and maintained high viability (8.85-8.90 log CFU/mL). Fermentation altered sugar profiles and produced unique volatile compounds, enhancing aroma and sensory attributes. F-19 generated 2-phenylethanol, a unique flavor compound, absent in BB-12. Phenolic content initially increased but antioxidant activity decreased during storage. Betacyanin remained stable for up to 14 days. Red pitaya improved F-19 viability through the simulated GIT, while BB-12 populations significantly decreased (p < 0.05). These results suggest red pitaya pulp is a promising plant-based matrix for F-19, offering protection during digestion and highlighting its potential as a functional food with enhanced bioactive compound bioavailability and sensory attributes.}, language = {en} } @article{HerkenhoffBroedelFrohme2024, author = {Herkenhoff, Marcos Edgar and Br{\"o}del, Oliver and Frohme, Marcus}, title = {Aroma component analysis by HS-SPME/GC-MS to characterize Lager, Ale, and sour beer styles}, series = {Food Research International}, volume = {194}, journal = {Food Research International}, publisher = {Elsevier}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:526-opus4-19830}, year = {2024}, abstract = {The world of beer is a rich tapestry woven with diverse styles, each with its unique character. Lager, known for its crispness, ferments at lower temperatures, while ale, at warmer ones, boasts a wide spectrum of aromas. Belgian beers dazzle with their complexity, from fruity Trappist ales to sour lambics. German wheat beers, like hefeweizens, charm with their effervescence and fruity undertones. India Pale Ales (IPAs) showcase a hoppy burst, while sour ales tantalize with their tanginess. Craftsmanship, history, and regional ingredients intertwine in this world of brewing, offering aficionados an array of delightful experiences. Research on craft beer aromas is limited, and molecular fingerprint could be crucial. To date, there have been no studies focused on characterizing compound profiles to differentiate beer styles. The Headspace Solid Phase Microextraction (HS-SPME) method provides a rapid and solvent-free approach to volatile compound. The present study aims to characterize the aroma profile of a wide range of beers by using HS-SPME/GC-MS technique combined with multivariate data processing. A total of 120 beer samples were collected and divided into five categories: Pilsen (n = 28); Lager (n = 23); Ale (n = 32); Sour (n = 24); and Belgian Ales (n = 13). Among the Pilsen beers, 18 unique compounds were found for beers with hop extract and hops, and 2 for beers with hop extract (Octyl acetate; and alpha-Terpineol). When comparing the remaining groups to each other, Belgian beers exhibited 5 unique compounds, and Lagers had one (nonanal). Sours and Ales did not have unique compounds but shared 2 distinct compounds with the Belgian group each. We concluded that Belgian beers are the most complex in terms of various aroma-related compounds, and that it is possible to distinguish beers that use pure hops from hop extract.}, language = {en} } @article{Geissler2024, author = {Geißler, Ren{\´e}}, title = {Ursachen, Folgen und Maßnahmen des Fachkr{\"a}ftemangels in der Kommunalverwaltung}, series = {Verwaltung und Management : Zeitschrift f{\"u}r moderne Verwaltung (VM)}, volume = {30}, journal = {Verwaltung und Management : Zeitschrift f{\"u}r moderne Verwaltung (VM)}, number = {5}, publisher = {Nomos}, issn = {0947-9856}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:526-opus4-19823}, pages = {227 -- 239}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Der Fachkr{\"a}ftemangel in seinen unterschiedlichen Formen pr{\"a}gt seit einigen Jahren die Kommunen und geh{\"o}rt zu deren gr{\"o}ßten Herausforderungen.

For this applicability, RRAM device performance depends on the technology used to fabricate the metal-insulator-metal (MIM) stack and the technology chosen for the selector device. To analyze these dependencies, the integrated RRAM devices in a 4k-bit array are studied on a 200 mm wafer scale in this work. The RRAM devices are integrated into two different CMOS transistor technologies of IHP, namely 250 nm and 130 nm and the devices are compared in terms of their pristine state current. The devices in 130 nm technology have shown lower number of high pristine state current devices per die in comparison to the 250 nm technology. For the 130 nm technology, the forming voltage is reduced due to the decrease of HfO₂ dielectric thickness from 8 nm to 5 nm. Additionally, 5\% Al-doped 4 nm HfO₂ dielectric displayed a similar reduction in forming voltage and a lower variation in the values. Finally, the multi-level switching between the dielectric layers in 250 nm and 130 nm technologies are compared, where 130 nm showed a more significant number of conductance levels of seven compared to only four levels observed in 250 nm technology.}, language = {en} } @article{KoetheGuskeMartinenetal.2024, author = {K{\"o}the, Alexander and Guske, Oliver and Martinen, Ivan and Hopf, Janik and Worrmann, Paul}, title = {Development and Validation of an Automatic Waypoint Navigation Control System for Watercrafts}, series = {IFAC-PapersOnLine}, volume = {58}, journal = {IFAC-PapersOnLine}, number = {25}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:526-opus4-19673}, pages = {174 -- 179}, year = {2024}, abstract = {This paper presents the development and testing of an automatic control system for waypoint navigation in a solar boat, initially designed for manual operation.

A fast and accurate detection of people and equipment can significantly increase the effectiveness of search and rescue missions and provide timely assistance to people. Computer vision and deep learning technologies play a key role in detecting the required objects due to their ability to analyze big volumes of visual data in real-time.

To realize that, the PEC setup is improved with respect to an enhanced photocurrent signal, better stability, and an increased signal-to-noise ratio, but also for a better biocompatibility of the sensor surface on which cells have been grown. To achieve this, a QD-TiO2 heterojunction is introduced with the help of atomic layer deposition (ALD). The heterojunction reduces the charge carrier recombination inside the semiconductor nanoparticles and improves the drift behavior. The PEC performance is carefully analyzed by adjusting the TiO2 thickness and combining this strategy with multilayer immobilizations of QDs. The optimal thickness of this coating is ≈5 nm; here, photocurrent generation can be enhanced significantly (e.g., for a single QD layer electrode by more than one order of magnitude at 0 V vs Ag/AgCl). The resulting optimized electrode is used for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) sensing with a good sensitivity down to µmolar concentrations, reusability, stability, response rate, and repeatability.

In this work, we demonstrate µTP of InP based coupons on SiO2 interlayer without any adhesive interlayer and investigate the mechanism of adhesive free bonding. Source coupons are InP-based coupon stacks on a sacrificial layer that is removed by a chemical wet etch with FeCl3.

We used O2 plasma to activate both source and target to increase adhesion between coupon and substrate. To get a better understanding of the bonding mechanism we applied several surface characterization methods. Root mean square roughness of InP and SiO2 was measured by atomic force microscopy before and after plasma activation. The step height of the micro-transfer printed source coupon on the target wafer is estimated by optical step profiler. We used Raman peak position mappings of InP to analyze possible strain and contact angle measurements on SiO2, before and after plasma activation to observe a change in the hydrophilicity of the surface.

Food security has become a major challenge for the future owing to the scarcity of land, rising global population, urbanization, and polluted soil and water resources. In this scenario, vertical farming as an innovative food production technology caters increased productivity with limited resources and improved carbon footprint. The review begins with a brief introduction to the concept of vertical farming, its opportunities and implications on the economy, environment, and society as a whole, following with an in-depth qualitative analysis of the cutting-edge innovations/technologies are presented in detail. Contrary to the numerous research focusing on mere analysis of economic viability and statistical analysis, the aim is to introduce real cutting-edge technologies that address the challenges of vertical farms such as lack of technical skills or energy requirements. The recent advances of vertical farms includes construction of outer vertical structure and growing shelves using light weight and transparent polymer composites, engineered and tunable LEDs lightings, 3-D printed and recyclable growing substrates, AI-integrated IoTs for environment control, harvesting materials for renewable energy storage etc. Such material innovations with inclusion of AI and robotics transform automated vertical farming into 'state of the art' agricultural technology. Production shelf fabricated using UV cured GBOV-glass fiber composite with 60\% transparency can overcome the material weight limitation, corrosion, light obstructions etc. associated with the conventional steel shelves. Replacing non-renewable fossil fuels using renewable energy harvested using carbon dots, florescent materials, and perovskite solar cells is recommended to minimize the high capital investments associated with energy as well as to reduce the environmental impact. Smart materials such as phase change materials and thermoresponsive windows control the amount of energy expended whereas smart substrate promotes resource management. Application of the newest technology AI in vertical farming facilitates precise control of environment, early pest detection, automation of farming processes, data-driven decision making and precision agriculture. In short, vertical farms utilizing modern innovations of science and technology caters enhanced productivity, improved quality, reduced cost, resource management and sustainability. Hence, automated and sustainable vertical farms promoting global food security and circularity have the potential to transform into burgeoning technology of future.}, language = {en} } @article{VerverisLasotaErmakovaetal.2024, author = {Ververis, Vasilis and Lasota, Lucas and Ermakova, Tatiana and Fabian, Benjamin}, title = {Website blocking in the European Union: Network interference from the perspective of Open Internet}, series = {Policy \& Internet}, volume = {16}, journal = {Policy \& Internet}, number = {1}, publisher = {Wiley}, issn = {1944-2866}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:526-opus4-17982}, pages = {121 -- 148}, year = {2024}, abstract = {By establishing an infrastructure for monitoring and blocking networks in accordance with European Union (EU) law on preventive measures against the spread of information, EU member states have also made it easier to block websites and services and monitor information.

The work analyzes traditional machine learning algorithms, deep learning methods and considers the advantages of using transformer models.

Besides the selection of the wire material and the loop geometry itself, the loop forming process parameters also have an influence on the reliability of the wire bond. In this work, the influence of the backward bond head movement during wire bonding process on the quality of wire bond connections was systematically investigated and qualified by cyclic mechanical lifetime tests, surface roughness measurements of the heel area by laser confocal microscopy and static pull tests. The wire bond loops were fabricated with 300 μm aluminum H11 and H14CR wires with different hardness values. The lifetime at low frequency cycle and high frequency cycle regime was determined by means of two different mechanical cyclic test methods operating at 5 Hz and at 60 kHz respectively. The results have shown, that the surface topology of the heel region caused by the initial plastic deformation during the loop forming process has a significant effect on the wire bond failure due to heel cracking. The number of loading cycles to failure shows an inverse correlation with the degree of surface roughness in a so called wrinkling analysis in the low and high frequency cycle regime.
