Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

His primary areas of study are Transplantation, Biophysics, Xylem, Analytical chemistry and Membrane. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including In vitro, Diabetic mouse, Biomedical engineering, Capsule and In vivo. His Biophysics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lymphocyte, Membrane transport, Electrical resistivity and conductivity and Cell membrane.

His studies deal with areas such as Phloem and Transpiration as well as Xylem. Ulrich Zimmermann has included themes like Electrorotation, Dielectric, Electrical breakdown, Permittivity and Chemical engineering in his Analytical chemistry study. His Membrane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydraulic conductivity, Electroporation, Dielectrophoresis and Propidium iodide.

His most cited work include:

  • Electrical breakdown, electropermeabilization and electrofusion (558 citations)
  • Biocompatibility of mannuronic acid-rich alginates. (262 citations)
  • Significance of plasmalemma aquaporins for water-transport in Arabidopsis thaliana (245 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Ulrich Zimmermann spends much of his time researching Biophysics, Botany, Membrane, Electrofusion and Xylem. His Biophysics research focuses on Electroporation and how it relates to Propidium iodide and Intracellular. His is involved in several facets of Botany study, as is seen by his studies on Turgor pressure and Osmotic pressure.

His work deals with themes such as Cell, Membrane potential and Analytical chemistry, which intersect with Membrane. His Electrofusion research integrates issues from Protoplast, Immunology and Cell fusion. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Xylem, narrowing it down to issues related to the Transpiration, and often Light intensity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biophysics (25.61%)
  • Botany (21.14%)
  • Membrane (19.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2015)?

  • Botany (21.14%)
  • Biophysics (25.61%)
  • Xylem (14.23%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Ulrich Zimmermann focuses on Botany, Biophysics, Xylem, Turgor pressure and Electrofusion. His work in Transpiration and Osmotic pressure is related to Botany. His Biophysics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cell culture, Chromatography and Osmotic shock.

His work on Pressure bomb as part of general Xylem study is frequently linked to Water flow, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Turgor pressure study combines topics in areas such as Leaf water, Patch clamp, Plant cell and Stomatal conductance. His Electrofusion research includes elements of Electrorotation, Membrane, Biochemistry, Membrane potential and Electroporation.

Between 2004 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Towards a medically approved technology for alginate-based microcapsules allowing long-term immunoisolated transplantation (178 citations)
  • Alginate-based encapsulation of cells: past, present, and future. (146 citations)
  • Long-Term Graft Function of Adult Rat and Human Islets Encapsulated in Novel Alginate-Based Microcapsules After Transplantation in Immunocompetent Diabetic Mice (129 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

Ulrich Zimmermann mainly focuses on Biophysics, Nanotechnology, Botany, Biocompatibility and Transplantation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cell culture, Electrofusion and Osmotic shock in addition to Biophysics. His work carried out in the field of Electrofusion brings together such families of science as Trehalose, Biochemistry, Growth medium and Transfection.

His work in the fields of Botany, such as Xylem, Osmotic pressure and Turgor pressure, intersects with other areas such as Flow imaging. His study on Biocompatibility also encompasses disciplines like

  • Microfluidic chip that connect with fields like Immune defense,
  • In vitro that connect with fields like Swelling. The concepts of his Transplantation study are interwoven with issues in Immunosuppression, Diabetic mouse and Islet.
