1. Factors influencing transferrin receptor-mediated brain delivery : Evaluating preclinical antibody-based proteins for PET imaging in Alzheimer’s disease
Sammanfattning : Antibody-based proteins targeting amyloid-beta (Aβ) could be used as radioligands in positron emission tomography (PET) to study Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology in the living brain. The prospective advantages of antibody-based PET are to detect pathology earlier, with higher sensitivity, and to evaluate treatment effects of emerging immunotherapies against Aβ. LÄS MER
2. Immunoassays using high-Tc SQUIDs
Sammanfattning : The development of a system for immunoassays using highly sensitive high-Tc superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is described in this thesis.High-Tc SQUIDs were fabricated using pulsed laser deposition and photolithography. LÄS MER
3. Protein microarrays for validation of affinity binders
Sammanfattning : Is specificity an important issue regarding affinity reagents? What about the validation of affinity reagents today, is it good enough? This depends on the application and the producer of the reagent. Validation should be the most important marketing argument that can be found. LÄS MER
4. Calcium-dependent Affinity Domains for the Purification of Antibodies and Antibody Fragments
Sammanfattning : Antibodies are essential proteins in both our bodies and biotechnological research, and hold outstanding therapeutic value. The market for antibody-based therapeutics has grown exponentially during the last decades, owing to several advantages over small molecule drugs, such as fewer undesirable side effects associated with a higher target specificity.

5. Lactobacilli expressing antibody fragments against pathogens
Sammanfattning : Adherence to mucosal surfaces has been shown to be of great importance in the pathogenesis of various infections in the gastro-intestinal tract. Live recombinant bacteria can be used to deliver active or passive immunity at the mucosal surface, which is the site of entry for the majority of the pathogens. LÄS MER
