Therefore it is important to get more knowledge about the factors that can cause mortality within the first weeks after seeding. With seeding high local …

To increase the yield and quality of aquaculture feed, the effects of N and P concentrations on biomass productivity and cell composition were examined in the marine diatom Skeletonema costatum. Batch-cultured microalgae in Walne’s medium with 3.5 ± 0.5 mmol L-1 N-NO3- and 0.30 ± 0.05 mmol L-1 P-PO43- …

It is widely understood that biofouling is an obstacle to water treatment processes, therefore, tailored cleaning strategies are needed to increase removal efficiency. This research inquired into the swelling behaviour at the equilibrium states of target biofilm models made from alginate -like exopolymers …

Introduction: Intractable epilepsy can be treated with the Ketogenic diet (KD). One of the side-effects of the KD is poor bone health. Experience from the Erasmus MC Sophia Children’s Hospital (EMCS) shows that the status of bone mineral density (BMD) is unknown in many cases. This makes it difficult …

The current procedure for assessing nervous activity in the spinal cord is needle ElectroSpinography (needle EMG). This is an invasive and painful approach during which a needle is inserted into the subarachnoid space. It is hypothesised that High-Density surface ElectroMyography (HD-sEMG) is a non-invasive …

Accumulating evidence dismisses the idea that bacteria are solitary bugs, living a completely independent existence. Instead, this definition is being replaced by the notion that bacteria are intimately communicating organisms holding tight relations to one another. One such process through which this …
