Oxygen Regulates Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Metabolic Flux by Jarmon G. Lees, Timothy S. Cliff, Amanda Gammilonghi, James G. Ryall, Stephen Dalton, David K. Gardner, Alexandra J. Harvey

“…Acetylation of H3K9 and H3K27 was elevated at 5% oxygen while H3K27 trimethylation was decreased, conforming to a more open chromatin structure. RNA-seq analysis of 5% oxygen hPSC also indicated increases in glycolysis, lysine demethylases, and glucose-derived carbon metabolism, while increased methyltransferase and cell cycle activity was indicated at 20% oxygen. …”

A conjugated heat and mass transfer model to implement reaction in particle-resolved CFD simulations of catalytic fixed bed reactors by Martin Kutscherauer, Scott D. Anderson, Sebastian Böcklein, Gerhard Mestl, Thomas Turek, Gregor D. Wehinger

“…Particle-resolved computational fluid dynamics (PRCFD) simulations are the most promising approach to predict the behaviour of these reactors accurately, since they take into account the local packed bed structure explicitly. In this work, a conjugated heat and mass transfer model for use in PRCFD simulations is presented in order to couple the fluid flow through the fixed bed with transport and reaction in the porous catalyst, while guaranteeing the no-slip boundary condition at the fluid–solid interface. …”
