  1. 1. Organization of Nanoparticles in Solution-A TEM Study

    Författare :Olivier Balmes; Lunds universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Materiallära; materialteknik; Material technology; organisation; plunge freezing; TEM; nanoparticle; transmission electron microscopy;

    Sammanfattning : A new approach to the study of nanoparticle systems has been introduced. Nanoparticle systems in aqueous and organic solutions have been synthesized and studied by transmission electron microscopy. These systems include nanoparticles of gold, silver, palladium, ruthenium, and platinum which have been stabilized using various ligands. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Characterization of iron ore green pellets by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray microtomography

    Författare :Iftekhar Uddin Bhuiyan; Charlotte Andersson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Technology; Kemisk teknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Cryogenic scanning electron microscopy (cryo-SEM), image analysis (IA) of SEM micrographs and X-ray microtomography (XMT) were used to obtain new information about the morphology of iron ore green pellets in this work. Cryo-SEM and freeze fracturing was used to observe entrapped air bubbles and arrangement of particles around the bubbles and in the matrix of wet green pellets. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Application of imaging TOF-SIMS in cell and tissue research

    Författare :Katrin Richter; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TOF-SIMS; imaging mass spectrometry; cryopreparation; ions; lipids; galactosylceramide; sulfatide; fatty acids;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is aimed at extending the use of TOF-SIMS (time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry) as an analytical tool in cell and tissue research. TOF-SIMS is a relatively new method that allows analysis of the chemical composition of sample surfaces. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Investigating polymorphism in small molecules using three-dimensional electron diffraction

    Författare :Molly Lightowler; Xiaodong Zou; Hosea M. Nelson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 3D electron diffraction; structure determination; polymorphism; crystallisation; phase identification; small molecule; oorganisk kemi; Inorganic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : For scientific, regulatory and intellectual property reasons, the discovery and characterisation of polymorphic systems is an integral aspect of the development process of any solid-formulated drug product. Yet, these studies are often hindered by crystal quality and size, poor yields and the generation of mixtures of phases. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Development and Evaluation of Preparation Methods for the Analysis of Cell Membranes Using Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry

    Författare :Jakob Malm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; salt; cryofixation; TOF-SIMS; supported phospholipid bilayer; freeze drying; vacuum; cells; POPC; glutaraldehyde;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this work was to evaluate and develop methods for preparing dry samples for TOF-SIMS analysis of cell membranes. For correct interpretation of the analysis data, an understanding of the effects that the preparation method has on the morphology and chemical structure of the sample must first be obtained. LÄS MER
