In this second guest-lecture at the TU in Delft the point of focus was the technical aspects of wind turbines and extracting energy from wind.

Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADES) represent a green chemistry alternative to utilization of common hazardous organic solvents. They were introduced by Abbott et al. [1], and were found to have a wide range of compositions and favorable properties. NADES are typically obtained by mixing hydrogen-bond …

from the article: "Abstract: The oral mucosa is the first immune tissue that encounters allergens upon ingestion of food. We hypothesized that the bio-accessibility of allergens at this stage may be a key determinant for sensitization. Light roasted peanut flour was suspended at various pH in buffers …

This paper describes the development of one solid phase extraction method for a wide group of pharmaceutical and industrial compounds in wastewater that is analyzed with two LC-MS/MS methods.

Alzheimer’s disease is the leading cause of dementia affecting over 46 million worldwide, yet contemporary medication is unable to prevent or slow its neurodegeneration. Recently, fucosterol and saringosterol, two phytosterols from brown macroalgae, have emerged as possible mediators of the disease. …

Bryophytes are small, haploid, non-vascular plants, which can be divided in three distinct phyla; the mosses (Musci), the liverworts (Hepaticae) and the hornworts (Anthocerotae) (Gradstein & Melick, 1996), (Touw, Kruijer, & Stech, 2016). They are valuable indicators of environmental chance, due to the …

Recent research has shown that many chloroplast markers commonly used for the identification of species in land plants are not useful in the moss genus Campylopus. The only known suitable marker in Campylopus is the nuclear ribosomal ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region. However, evolutionary patterns of this region …
