Chemistry for audio heritage preservation : a review of analytical techniques for audio magnetic tapes Universiteit Gent
Vast and important cultural resources are entrusted to magnetic tape around the world, but they are susceptible to degradation, which may lead to severe replay problems. Audio magnetic tapes are complex and multicomponent devices containing organic compounds and metal systems, which can be potential catalysts for many degradative reactions in the presence of water, light, or heating. The aim of this review is to collect the literature concerning ...
Fertility preservation in men with cancer Vrije Universiteit Brussel
During the past decade, advances in cancer treatment have increased survival rates of both boys and men. However, cancer treatment itself can compromise fertility, especially exposure to alkylating agents and whole body irradiation, which cause substantial germ cell loss. Children and adolescents with testicular cancer, leukaemia, and Ewing sarcomas are at the highest risk of developing permanent sterility from cancer treatment. Consequently, ...

Current achievements and future research directions in ovarian tissue culture, in vitro follicle development and transplantation: implications for fertility preservation. Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Background: Female cancer patients are offered 'banking' of gametes before starting fertility-threatening cancer therapy. Transplants of fresh and frozen ovarian tissue between healthy fertile and infertile women have demonstrated the utility of the tissue banked for restoration of endocrine and fertility function. Additional methods, like follicle culture and isolated follicle transplantation, are in development.

Eco-sustainable coatings based on chitosan, pectin, and lemon essential oil nanoemulsion and their effect on strawberry preservation Universiteit Gent
Films and coatings manufactured with bio-based renewable materials, such as biopolymers and essential oils, could be a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative for protecting and preserving agricultural products. In this work, we developed films and coatings from pectin and chitosan to protect strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) from spoilage and microbial contamination. We developed three coatings containing equal amounts of glycerol and ...

Travel guides and travelogues as sources to examine the collector’s role in art and heritage preservation : the case of Belgium (ca. 1780-1914) Universiteit Gent
During the long nineteenth century Belgium was home to a remarkably large number of private art and antiques collections. Many of those were visited by an interested local and international public and were popular topics in contemporary travel literature. Based on an in-depth examination of historical travel guides and travelogues, this contribution aims to further our understanding of the nineteenth-century private collector. Which information ...
