(author), Daran-Lapujade, P.A.S. (author)Hexose transporter-deficient yeast strains are valuable testbeds for the study of sugar transport by native and heterologous transporters. In the popular Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain EBY.VW4000, deletion of 21 transporters completely abolished hexose transport. However, repeated use of the LoxP/Cre system in successive deletion rounds also...journal article 2019

van der Kolk, E. (author)The temperature dependent luminescence properties of Yb2+ doped in NaI, SrI2 and LaI3 powders, prepared by a fast synthesis method involving the rapid melting and quenching in vacuum are reported. The 4f→5d excitation and emission spectra obtained for SrI2:Yb2+ were found to be in accordance with earlier work validating the synthesis methods. In...journal article 2019

(author), Infante, Ivan (author), Siebbeles, L.D.A. (author), Houtepen, A.J. (author)Thermalization losses limit the photon-to-power conversion of solar cells at the high-energy side of the solar spectrum, as electrons quickly lose their energy relaxing to the band edge. Hot-electron transfer could reduce these losses. Here, we demonstrate fast and efficient hot-electron transfer between lead selenide and cadmium selenide...journal article 2018

Poltorak, L. (author), Oonk, S. (author), Sudholter, Ernst J. R. (author), de Puit, M. (author)The behaviour of acid phosphatase at an electrified liquid–liquid interface was studied in this work. It was found that only the protonated form of the protein can undergo interfacial adsorption which is affected by the pH of the aqueous phase. With ion transfer voltammetry we could detect acid phosphatase in concentrations as low as 0.1 μM....journal article 2018

Henriques da Silva, M.D. (author), Ottens, M. (author)Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) can be an effective strategy for the purification of polyphenols from a fermentation broth. However, solvents need to be chosen to ensure high extraction capacity and selectivity. For that purpose, a systematic study is here presented, where the partition of different polyphenols - naringin, naringenin, p...journal article 2018

Levisson, Mark (author), Patinios, Constantinos (author), Hein, Sascha (author), Daran, J.G. (author), Martens, Stefan (author), Hall, Robert D. (author), Beekwilder, Jules (author)Background: Anthocyanins are polyphenolic pigments which provide pink to blue colours in fruits and flowers. There is an increasing demand for anthocyanins, as food colorants and as health-promoting substances. Plant production of anthocyanins is often seasonal and cannot always meet demand due to low productivity and the complexity of the...journal article 2018

Poltorak, L. (author), Hoitink, Marnix (author), Sudholter, Ernst J. R. (author), de Puit, M. (author)A straightforward, direct, and selective method is presented for electrochemical cocaine identification in street samples. The sensing mechanism is based on a simple ion transfer reaction across the polarized liquid-liquid interface. The interfacial behavior of a number of cutting agents is also reported. Interfacial miniaturization has led...journal article 2018

Flipse, S.M. (author)Responsible innovation requires, among other things, that innovators reflect on the broader socio-ethical and socio-economic context of their work. This may be done by reflecting on innovation project complexity. However, tools and methods enabling relevant reflection are not abundant. In this explorative study, we investigated the effect of...journal article 2018

(author)A nitrogen-doped carbon was synthesized through the pyrolysis of the well-known metal-organic framework ZIF-8, followed by a subsequent acid treatment, and has been applied as a catalyst in the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. The resulting electrode shows Faradaic efficiencies to carbon monoxide as high as ∼78%, with hydrogen...journal article 2018

(author), Daran, J.G. (author)While CRISPR-Cas9-mediated genome editing has transformed yeast research, current plasmids and cassettes for Cas9 and guide-RNA expression are species specific. CRISPR tools that function in multiple yeast species could contribute to the intensifying research on non-conventional yeasts. A plasmid carrying a pangenomic origin of replication...journal article 2018

(author)While the formation of (tri)block copolymer hydrogels has been extensively investigated, such studies mostly focused on equilibrium self-assembling whereas the use of preformed structures as building blocks such as out of equilibrium, quenched, nanofibrillar micelles is still a challenge. Here, we demonstrate that quenched, ultralong...journal article 2018
