Moreno Gonzalez, M. (author), Keulen, D. (author), Gomis-Fons, Joaquín (author), Lopez Gomez, M.G. (author), Nilsson, Bernt (author), Ottens, M. (author)Efficient recovery and utilization of valuable components from industrial food side streams is a main driver towards a circular economy. Among different available purification techniques, adsorption can effectively recover these components. However, the conventional batch mode of operation can limit its applicability in food processes due to...journal article 2021

Liu, Y. (author), Esen, O. (author), Pronk, J.T. (author), van Gulik, W.M. (author)This study explores the relation between biomass-specific succinic acid (SA) production rate and specific growth rate of an engineered industrial strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with the aim to investigate the extent to which growth and product formation can be uncoupled.

Moscoviz, Roman (author), Kleerebezem, R. (author), Rombouts, J.L. (author)Bioethanol production is an established biotechnological process. Margins are low which prevent a larger scale production of bioethanol. As a large part of the production cost is due to the feedstock, the use of low value unsterile feedstocks fermented by microbial communities will enable a more cost-competitive bioethanol production. To...review 2021

Mitchell, Jessica (author), Smith, C.S. (author), Titlow, Josh (author), Otto, Nils (author), van Velde, P.F. (author), Booth, Martin (author), Davis, Ilan (author), Waddell, Scott (author)Memory-relevant neuronal plasticity is believed to require local translation of new proteins at synapses. Understanding this process requires the visualization of the relevant mRNAs within these neuronal compartments. Here, we used single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization to localize mRNAs at subcellular resolution in the adult...journal article 2021

Farajzadeh, R. (author), Eftekhari, A. A. (author), Dafnomilis, I. (author), Lake, L. W. (author), Bruining, J. (author)This work uses pilot examples of CO<sub>2</sub> enhanced oil recovery to analyze whether and under which circumstances it is exergetically favorable to sequester CO<sub>2</sub> through enhanced oil recovery. We find that the net storage efficiency (ratio between the stored and captured CO<sub>2</sub>) of the carbon capture and storage (CCS)...journal article 2020

(author)The attenuation coefficient (AC) is an optical property of tissue that can be estimated from optical coherence tomography (OCT) data. In this paper, we aim to estimate the AC accurately by compensating for the shape of the focused beam. For this, we propose a method to estimate the axial PSF model parameters and AC by fitting a model for an...journal article 2020
