1. Organic phosphorus speciation in environmental samples : Method development and applications
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the development of new methodology for the identification and quantification of organic phosphorus compounds in environmental samples.Phosphorus is a vital element for primary production and one of the factors contributing to eutrophication. LÄS MER
2. Biomimetic Membranes: : Molecular Structure and Stability Studies by Vibrational Sum Frequency Spectroscopy
Sammanfattning : In the research presented in this licentiate thesis the surface specific technique Vibrational Sum Frequency Spectroscopy, VSFS, combined with the Langmuir trough has been utilized to investigate Langmuir monolayers and Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposited mono- and bilayers of phospholipids. Their molecular structure, stability, and hydration were probed to gain additional understanding of important properties aiming at facilitating the use of such layers as model systems for biological membranes.

3. Ellipsometry studies of liquid interfaces: New methodology and applications
Sammanfattning : Adsorption of several surface active agents, such as nonionics, diblock copolymers, triblock copolymers, proteins and phospholipids at the oil/water and air/water has been studied. In order to be able to do this, a new ellipsometry setup, which utilizes light guides, was developed and tested. LÄS MER
4. Detection of Lipids and Proteins on Biological Surfaces using Imaging Mass Spectrometry
Sammanfattning : Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) is a technique that can be used for imaging the spatial distribution of many different molecules at the same time. It is very sensitive for detection of small biomolecules, such as lipids, whereas larger biomolecules, such as peptides and proteins, cannot be detected as intact entities due to fragmentation.

5. Structural studies of bio-molecules and lipid assemblies using polarized light spectroscopy
Sammanfattning : The focus of the research presented in this thesis is structural studies of biological macromolecules using Linear Dichroism (LD) spectroscopy. The first part covers the flow alignment and structure of DMPC/DHPC phospholipid aggregates. LÄS MER
