Biological application of microelectrode arrays in drug discovery and basic research

A Stett, U Egert, E Guenther, F Hofmann… - Analytical and …, 2003 - Springer
Electrical activity of electrogenic cells in neuronal and cardiac tissue can be recorded by
means of microelectrode arrays (MEAs) that offer the unique possibility for non-invasive …

Preconditioning doses of NMDA promote neuroprotection by enhancing neuronal excitability

FX Soriano, S Papadia, F Hofmann… - Journal of …, 2006 - Soc Neuroscience
Neuroprotection can be induced by low doses of NMDA, which activate both synaptic and
extrasynaptic NMDA receptors. This is in apparent contradiction with our recent findings that …

Microelectrode array recordings of cultured hippocampal networks reveal a simple model for transcription and protein synthesis‐dependent plasticity

FJL Arnold, F Hofmann, CP Bengtson… - The Journal of …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
A simplified cell culture system was developed to study neuronal plasticity. As changes in
synaptic strength may alter network activity patterns, we grew hippocampal neurones on a …

The blockchain technology can be regarded as a groundbreaking invention with the potential
to bring the digital revolution to the next stage by helping to realize peer economy solutions…

Velocity profile based recognition of dynamic gestures with discrete hidden Markov models

FG Hofmann, P Heyer, G Hommel - Gesture and Sign Language in Human …, 1998 - Springer
In this paper we present a method for the recognition of dynamic gestures with discrete
Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) from a continuous stream of gesture input data. The …

High-resolution helium atom time-of-flight spectroscopy of low-frequency vibrations of adsorbates

F Hofmann, JP Toennies - Chemical reviews, 1996 - ACS Publications
The atomic-level description of the interatomic interactions determining the structure and
dynamics of clean and adsorbate-covered surfaces is one of the most fundamental topics in …

Application of the density dependent hadron field theory to neutron star matter

F Hofmann, CM Keil, H Lenske - Physical Review C, 2001 - APS
The density dependent hadron field theory, previously applied to isospin nuclei and
hypernuclei is used to describe β-stable matter and neutron stars under consideration of the …

[HTML][HTML] Radiation-related quality of life parameters after targeted intraoperative radiotherapy versus whole breast radiotherapy in patients with breast cancer: results …

G Welzel, A Boch, E Sperk, F Hofmann… - Radiation …, 2013 - Springer
Background Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) is a new treatment approach for early stage
breast cancer. This study reports on the effects of IORT on radiation-related quality of life (…

Long term recordings with microelectrode arrays: studies of transcription-dependent neuronal plasticity and axonal regeneration

F Hofmann, H Bading - Journal of Physiology-Paris, 2006 - Elsevier
Substrate integrated microelectrode arrays (MEAs) offer an alternative to classical
electrophysiological methods like the patch clamp technique for recording the electrical activity from …

In Vitro Selection of Functional Lantipeptides

FT Hofmann, JW Szostak… - Journal of the American …, 2012 - ACS Publications
In this report we present a method to identify functional artificial lantipeptides. In vitro
translation coupled with an enzyme-free protocol for posttranslational modification allows …
