Future perspective on molecular imprinting
Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs in short) are an appealing alternative towards natural receptors due to their low-cost, enhanced robustness, and versatility. Moreover, they are an animal-free technology and have little batch-to-batch variation unlike antibodies. Nonetheless, even if these materials can rival the affinity of natural receptors, their commercial application remains limited. In this short video, I give a perspective on why this and discuss three important factors namely sustainability, functionality, and biocompatibility.

How do chameleons change colour?
Переглядів 1393 місяці тому
Chameleons change colour by dispersing or concentrating pigment in the cells (chromatophores) that contain them. The chameleon's colour state at any given time is controlled by a complex interaction of hormones, temperature, and the animal’s autonomic nervous system. Colour change is determined by such environmental factors as light and temperature as well as by emotions.

The history of biotechnology
Переглядів 3786 місяців тому
Biotechnology is the harnessing of biological systems (e.g. microorganisms) to develop novel goods or procedures - this term was first used by Karl Ereky in 1919. The history begins with zymotechnology (the study of fermentation), where the focus was on brewing techniques of beer which was later expanded to food. Nowadays, biotechnology might be more associated with healthcare applications and ...

Very nice lecture ❤
Just back from brunssum I'm a fan off the old band pussycat toni wille was hoping to meet her and it's a very nice place very clean and the people are very friendly i met a Scottish guy living ther for over 30 years lucky guy I'm very tempted
Thank you so much, my professor couldn't explain anything to us and refused to help during office hours. This has been so helpful!
I hope you to be Muslim because you have evry thing but you dont have any thing if you are not Muslim -see how many became Muslim they blame us why dont spread islam ; the person when he bacame muslim he cried if his parent died not muslim and see how is happy because he knew the real GOD
Netherlands Lifestyle is more laid back than UK. Dutch people are very friendly at all whereas British might be a bit racist for foreigners. Majorly UK is more formal and Dutch are more casual at their work place. Social security is far better in the Netherlands than UK. So, Netherlands wins this round.
is there any paper, application, equipment where settler was used?
well explained
Thank you!
I have a very difficult time understanding the doctor's speech.
Thank you 👍🏻
Are you integrated at UK culture or you still prefer Netherlads culture.
The good thing is that as an expat, you can get the best of both worlds!

Thank you for the very well organized, clear, concise and informative introduction. 🙏💛 Would have taken me much longer to get such an overview in my mind on my own!
You are welcome!
Would love a full lecture! Also there needs to be a video describing glass crystallization reactors i cant find 1 that shows how it works
Thank you! Glass crystallization reactors is certainly something to consider, I have made a video about bioglass which will be available soon

Manchester is booming right now and so is Leeds
True, will be interesting to see what happens in the next couple of years (and after this election)
The north of England has been abandoned by the 'political/ruling classes', 95 pence in every pound is spent on the south of England and in particularly London and the home counties...
Interesting idea but other than population not much else is comparable. Most obvious difference is the location in relation to the rest of Europe: one central, the other peripheral. The political system is also different: the North of England rarely gets governments it votes for. It’s not just the physical location of government but from a northern perspective, the entire country is governed in the interests of the South. Virtually the first thing the government did in 2010 was abolish the Regional Development Agencies. The North has a similar socioeconomic profile to the Celtic nations but receives far less public spending per head. The under investment goes back decades but has got worse under this government, despite all the BS about ‘leveling up’. The slogan is designed to conceal the truth.
I have indeed not seen much come off the "leveling up" agenda - let's see what happens in the elections! Thanks for your thoughts
@@MarloesPeeters You may not know about the Barnett formula. That is the annual calculation made to allocate public spending to the four nations. As England is the richest nation by far it gets the lowest allocation, Scotland the highest- about £2k a head greater than England. That would be ok if wealth was evenly distributed in England. The result is Northern England, with a similar socioeconomic profile to the Celtic nations gets far less public funding. The other important discrimination is the way central government funds to local government are allocated. For decades allocation was based on objective social need. This government has abolished that system with the effect that impoverished northern councils have been much harder hit by cuts than those in the south. Finally the way infrastructure projects are funded also discriminates against the north simply because they cannot demonstrate the same multiplier effects that you can in London especially- hence all the money for Crossrail etc. These sorts of issues are far below the radar in public discourse, in part obscured by the Levelling up rhetoric. Since George Osborne regeneration has been wound down in real terms, replaced with much smaller schemes more widely dispersed as a deliberate attempt at political marketing (more local good news stories) which is a thing (since Blair- Cameron used to refer to him as The Master).
@@jontalbot1 Thank you - very insightful! No I had never heard of the Barnett formula
Building in the Netherlands isn’t that easy because the majority of the ground you want to build on is former marshes composed of peat.
Interesting point! Certainly not something that I considered
What a fascinating video, thank you :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
North of the UK is Scotland. You mean North of England!
That's correct - I've adapted the thumbnail now (all numbers are from the North of England though just to clarify)
you keep saying north of uk while you talk about north of England.
Apologies for that, it should be north of England instead!
Yeah, careful you'll anger the Scots, we had to build a whole wall to keep them out!!! Jokes aside, this is a fascinating listen :)
@@MrLewis555 : using terms accurately is much easier then building a wall, and makes a better video.
@@lcolinwilson8347 The inaccuracy has been acknowledged and that should be the end of the matter - unless it is repeated, of course, but that seems highly unlikely.
The Netherlands is also a decentralized country. Various regions such as Rotterdam, Eindhoven, Utrecht, North and South Netherlands compete with each other. Many head offices are not located in Amsterdam, but spread across the country. Instead of The Hague (political capital), many important government institutions are located in less strong economic regions. In South Limburg (South Netherlands) Tax authorities, In Groningen and Friesland (North Netherlands) Education, justice and energy, and so on.
True also some very valid points to make (this point is actually mentioned in the blog post I am referring to but I did not discuss it)
The north of England is not the north of the UK. You want to be taken seriously then get things like this correct.
A really interesting (and good) study. You are completely correct when you say that there is a complete lack of ambition for the North, within the UK. In the early 1990s, I was a resident of Eindhoven. On a Sunday evening, I would get off a Dutch Railways intercity train. I would then walk down some stairs in to the bus station. In the bus station, I would see an entire row of buses waiting to take people from the rail station to the various parts of Eindhoven. Within minutes and with my 'strippenkaart', the bus would *whizz* me down the Aalsterweg to my stop at the Kortonjo building (Herman Gorterlaan), three minutes walk from my front door. So, I would be at my front door within minutes of getting off the train. God, how I miss my Saturday trips to Utrecht, Amsterdam, Antwerp, Liege and Koln. What mind-broadening and happy days.
Glad you have good memory of the Netherlands! I certainly miss that it is much easier to travel in the Netherlands, or in Europe for that matter
Quite agree I lived in Eindhoven from 1983 to 2000 It was obvious that the Dutch spent the money they gained from the gas winning equally all over the country... In England the money gained from tax goes direct to London and THEY decide where it will be spent . It is unequally spent on the South. Thatcher in fact had a planned decline for certain cities like Liverpool. a disgraceful decision which was thankfully overturned by EU money and the intervention od the Duke of Westminster's company in re/building Liverpool one . Lancashire particularly suffers from a medieval law from the 1300,s that allows the King to take over 250million out of the county as his right He also took over 10 billion from people of the county over ten years those who died intestate Again a disgrace
Using 2019 figures is hardly an up-to-date comparison. Also a comparison between such geographically different areas will produce vastly figures. This is a pointless exercise like comparing chalk and cheese
Ever tried or relied on Northern Rail ???
@@AndrewLord I have 3 days ago. 5 hours for a 2 hour journey 😭😭😭
@@old.not.too.grumpy. Well ….. least it turned up
@AndrewLord it didn't. That's why I had to catch 3 trains instead of one, and it took so long. At least I got a tour of the stations of the stations of Lancashire and Yorkshire 🤣
Worse than TransPennine Express?
Yes, the Netherlands are flatter, but they are also very soggy. And that makes building foundations trickier and more expensive. There is also an awful lot of waterways, requiring expensive infrastructure like bridges, tunnels, quays, locks, sluices, aqueducts even. Not to mention all the dykes.

Airlift reactors are not that suitable for the small scale you are referring to, stirred tank bioreactors are a better option. You can check out the video on mycoprotein processing in the playlist “Downstreamprocessing in the pharmaceutical industry” playlist
