Jánoska, A. (author), Verheijen, Jelle J. (author), Tang, W. (author), Lee, Queenie (author), Sikkema, Baukje (author), van Gulik, W.M. (author)In large-scale bioreactors, there is often insufficient mixing and as a consequence, cells experience uneven substrate and oxygen levels that influence product formation. In this study, the influence of dissolved oxygen (DO) gradients on the primary and secondary metabolism of a high producing industrial strain of Penicillium chrysogenum was...journal article 2022

(author), Randall, Katherine (author), Ewing, Edward Thomas (author), Tufekci, Zeynep (author), Greenhalgh, Trish (author), Tellier, Raymond (author), Tang, Julian W. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Abstract The question of whether SARS-CoV-2 is mainly transmitted by droplets or aerosols has been highly controversial. We sought to explain this controversy through a historical analysis of transmission research in other diseases. For most of human history, the dominant paradigm was that many diseases were carried by the air, often over long...journal article 2022
