Itcom-prises different studies ranging from phase diagram determination to enzymatic ac-tivity. For this reason this thesis was written so that each chapter can be readindependently. Separate bibliographies are given at the end of each chapter. Eachchapter layout follows the usual convention: Abstract, Introduction, Results andDiscussion and Conclusion. The different studies led to publications which arealready published, accepted or submitted, summarized in the following Table. Co-authors on the Ph.D. work in Regensburg are listed. A complete list of publicationsand a list of poster presentations, which were presented at international congresses,are also given at the end.iPrefaceChapter PublicationBauduin, P.; Wattebled, L.; Schroedle, S.; Touraud, D.; Kunz, W.
