  1. 21. Multilayer Structures for Biomaterial Applications : Biomacromolecule-based Coatings

    Författare :Tobias Halthur; Per M. Claesson; Bjørn Stokke; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multilayer; layer-by-layer deposition; physical chemistry; surface chemistry; adsorption; ellipsometry; QCM-D; DPI; protein adsorption; polypeptides; biomaterials; biosurfaces; amelogenin; solid liquid interface; Surface and colloid chemistry; Yt- och kolloidkemi;

    Sammanfattning : The cellular response to a biomaterial, such as a dental implant, is mainly governed by the surface properties, and can thus be altered by the introduction of a surface coating. In this thesis the buildup of a biomacromolecule-based coating formed by layerby-layer (LbL) deposition of the charged polypeptides poly(L-lysine) (PLL) and poly(L-glutamic acid) (PGA) has been studied.

  2. 22. Biomolecular Interactions with Porous Silicon

    Författare :Linda Karlsson; Martin Malmsten; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : One common problem when putting something inside the body is a fast response from the body defending it from the intruder. Here the researchers are struggling with finding biocompatible materials, which act in a predicted and non-harmful way. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Oxidized Cladophora nanocellulose derivatives : Functionalization towards biocompatible materials

    Författare :Igor Rocha; Jonas Lindh; Natalia Ferraz; Albert Mihranyan; Maria Strömme; Eva Malmström Jonsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cladophora nanocellulose; TEMPO oxidation; periodate oxidation; sulfonation; cellulose beads; surface properties; biomaterials; cell studies; hemocompatibility;

    Sammanfattning : Nanocellulose is a promising candidate for biomedical applications because of its enhanced mechanical properties, increased surface area and greater porosity compared to bulk cellulose.This thesis investigates the functionalization of Cladophora nanocellulose and evaluates the influence of these modifications on physicochemical properties and biocompatibility of the material.

  4. 24. Nanocellulose for Biomedical Applications : Modification, Characterisation and Biocompatibility Studies

    Författare :Kai Hua; Natalia Ferraz; Maria Strømme; Albert Mihranyan; Pedro Granja; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nanocellulose; nanofibrillated cellulose; Cladophora cellulose; biocompatibility; inflammation; surface modification; surface group density; surface topography; Engineering Science with specialization in Nanotechnology and Functional Materials; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot nanoteknologi och funktionella material;

    Sammanfattning : In the past decade there has been increasing interest in exploring the use of nanocellulose in medicine. However, the influence of the physicochemical properties of nanocellulose on the material´s biocompatibility has not been fully investigated. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Bone Enhancement with BMP-2 for Safe Clinical Translation

    Författare :Marta Kisiel; Jöns Hilborn; Monica Wiig; Richard Oreffo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bone repair; Bone healing; Bone morhogenetic protein-2; Osteogenesis; Extracelular matrix; Hyaluronan; Animal model; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) is considered a promising adjuvant for the treatment of bone regeneration. However, BMP-2 delivery in a conventional collagen scaffold needs a high dose to achieve an effective outcome. Moreover, such dosage may lead to serious side effects. LÄS MER
