Extraction of bioimpedance phase information from its magnitude using a non-uniform Kramers–Kronig transform 28/02/2020
Abstract A novel non-uniform Kramers–Kronig Transform algorithm for bioimpedance phase extraction is proposed and tested in this work. The algorithm error is studied and compared with a previously proposed phase extraction technique, also based on the Kramers–Kronig transform. Results using simulated datasets and experimental datasets confirm the excellent performance of the algorithm.
Molecular cloning and biochemical characterization of the phospholipid scramblase SCRM-1 from Caenorhabditis elegans 04/02/2020
Abstract In this study, the SCRM-1 gene from Caenorhabditis elegans was cloned and overexpressed in E. coli to study the biochemical properties of scramblase. This is the first report showing that this scramblase from C. elegans possesses a Ca2+-dependent and head group-independent scramblase activity. The SCRM-1 of C.elegans possesses functional domains including a single EF-hand-like […]
Measurement of length distribution of beta-lactoglobulin fibrils by multiwavelength analytical ultracentrifugation 31/01/2020
Abstract The whey protein beta-lactoglobulin is the building block of amyloid fibrils which exhibit a great potential in various applications. These include stabilization of gels or emulsions. During biotechnological processing, high shear forces lead to fragmentation of fibrils and therefore to smaller fibril lengths. To provide insight into such processes, pure straight amyloid fibril dispersions […]
