Salinity enhances high optically active L-lactate production from co-fermentation of food waste and waste activated sludge: Unveiling the response of microbial community shift and functional profiling
PublicationLactic acid (LA), a versatile platform molecule, can be fermented from organic wastes, such as food waste and waste activated sludge. In this study, an efficient approach using salt, a component of food waste as an additive, was proposed to increase LA production. The LA productivity was increased at 10 g NaCl/L and optical pure L-lactate was obtained at 30 g NaCl/L. The enhancement of LA was in accordance with the increased solubilization...

Identification of volatile compounds based on the electrocatalytic gas sensor responses
PublicationMeasured response in case of electrocatalytic gas sensors is in form of a voltamperometric characteristic. Current-voltage (I-V) response shape depends on the gas type and its concentration. Such response contains significantly more information comparing with typical electrochemical sensors, but is quite difficult to analyze. When I-V curve contains current peaks, position of such peaks can be used...

Transcriptomic responses to wounding: meta-analysis of gene expression microarray data
PublicationBackground A vast amount of microarray data on transcriptomic response to injury has been collected so far. We designed the analysis in order to identify the genes displaying significant changes in expression after wounding in different organisms and tissues. This meta-analysis is the first study to compare gene expression profiles in response to wounding in as different tissues as heart, liver, skin, bones, and spinal cord, and...

Exploring the influence of personal factors on physiological responses to mental imagery in sport
PublicationImagery is a well-known technique in mental training which improves performance efficiency and influences physiological arousal. One of the biomarkers indicating the amount of physiological arousal is skin conductance level (SCL). The aim of our study is to understand how individual differences in personality (e.g. neuroticism), general imagery and situational sport anxiety are linked to arousal measuring with SCL in situational...

Type III Responses to Transient Inputs in Hybrid Nonlinear Neuron Models
PublicationExperimental characterization of neuronal dynamics involves recording both of spontaneous activity patterns and of responses to transient and sustained inputs. While much theoretical attention has been devoted to the spontaneous activity of neurons, less is known about the dynamic mechanisms shaping their responses to transient inputs, although these bear significant physiological relevance. Here, we study responses to transient...

Detection of Closing Crack in Beam Based on Responses Induced by Harmonic Excitation
PublicationThe non-linear contact model was chosen to simulate the closed crack in the cantilever beam. The study examines the shape and characteristics of the phase diagram of a cantilever beam with closed cracks. It investigates how various crack properties influence the geometry of the phase diagram and proposes a method for identifying cracks based on their features. The area of each closed curve in the phase diagram is determined using...

Evaluation of the prediction ability of air pollutants based on the electronic nose responses
PublicationElectronic noses are able to perform on-line measurements of the toxic volatile compounds in air. Due to their low cost and compact size they can be placed in the areas exposed to pollution, outside the laboratory. Those advantages, on the other side, force the need for development of the reliable sensors data analysis procedures. One of the most important issues connected with electronic noses is the lack of stability of the gas...

Determination of toxic gases based on the responses of a single electrocatalytic sensor and pattern recognition techniques
PublicationA response from an electrocatalytic gas sensor contains fingerprint information about the type of gas and its concentration. As a result, a single gas sensor can be used for the determination of different gases. However, information about the type of gas and its concentration is hidden in the unique shape of the current–voltage response and it is quite difficult to explore. One of the ways to get precise information about the measured...

Application of Multiplicative Drift Correction and Component Correction methods on simulated gas sensor array responses
PublicationSensor response drift is one of the most challenging problems in gas-analyzing systems. Such systems, commonly called electronic noses, are expected to be reliable and reproducible in the long term. Due to the drift phenomena, electronic noses usability is limited to the relatively short period of time, and frequent recalibrations of device are required. Because it is very hard to fabricate sensors without drift, this phenomenon...

Large Hall and Nernst responses from thermally induced spin chirality in a spin-trimer ferromagnet
PublicationThe long-range order of noncoplanar magnetic textures with scalar spin chirality (SSC) can couple to conduction electrons to produce an additional (termed geometrical or topological) Hall effect. One such example is the Hall effect in the skyrmion lattice state with quantized SSC. An alternative route to attain a finite SSC is via the spin canting caused by thermal fluctuations in the vicinity of the ferromagnetic ordering transition....
