WP2: Scientific developments



Abstract

The aim of this workpackage is to test measurement conditions for the newly developed modules and the development of specific applications.
  • Determination of optimal Q-sensor measurement conditions
  • Determination of optimal measurement conditions for the PB-Module
  • Development of protocols for scientific, pre-clinical and algal biotechnology applications
  • Data handling and quality control

Achievements

Project Year 1: During testing in the first project year, optimal measurement conditions were determined for using the Q-sensor with a variety of biological samples. Simultaneously testing began of the beta version of DatLab. New SUIT protocols were developed for general, pre-clinical, and algal biotechnology applications. A focus has also been given to internal and external quality control measures.
Project Year 2: In the second year of the project, experiments with microalgae began, including determining the process for permeabilization and SUIT protocol development. Two preprints were published on microalgae as a result of this work. A further preprint was published on data from Q-Module experiments about the coupling and pathway control of coenzyme Q redox state and respiration. In addition to these developments, NADH-Module testing also started.
