  1. 11. Plant cell-inspiredmicrocontainers: Fabrication, Characterization and Applications

    Författare :Thomas Paulraj; Anna Justina Svagan; Daniel Crespy; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Biomimetic materials have been inspiring mankind since a longtime for applications in a variety of fields. In particular, the production of lipidbasedvesicles have aided in our understanding of a variety of functions in animalcells, and also served as e.g. drug delivery systems and bioreactors. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Biomimetic Carbohydrate Materials

    Författare :Qiong Zhang; Hans Ågren; Robert J. Woods; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; molecular dynamics simulation; carbohydrate; cellulose; xyloglucan; cyclodextrin; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The present thesis honors contemporary molecular dynamics simulation methodologies which provide powerful means to predict data, interpret observations and widen our understanding of the dynamics, structures and interactions of carbohydrate systems. With this as starting point my thesis work embarked on several cutting edge problems summarized as follows. LÄS MER

  4. 13. CONTROLLED ASSEMBLY AND FUNCTIONALISATION OF CELLULOSE-BASED MATERIALS

    Författare :Johan Erlandsson; Lars Wågberg; Per A. Larsson; Sang-Young Lee; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : The environmental effects caused by the use of fossil-based resources have intensified and driven society and research towards new materials and processes that utilise renewable resources. Within the development of new materials, wood has been identified as a raw-material from which high performing materials can be derived. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Luminescent textiles using biobased products : A bioinspired approach

    Författare :Sweta Iyer; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioinspired; biobased; bioluminescent; photoluminescent; textile; luminous bacteria; enzymes; immobilization; plasma; riboflavin; flavin mononucleotide; sustainable; digital printing; functionalization; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Sammanfattning : Nature has designed a few biobased molecules that are responsible for bioluminescence and photoluminescence in some living species. In this thesis, the potential use of luminescence phenomena existing in nature toward the attainment of luminescent textiles was explored. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Extracellular matrix mimetic multi-functional scaffolds for tissue engineering and biomedical applications

    Författare :Ranjithkumar Ravichandran; Jaywant Phopase; Anthony Turner; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Regeneration of functional tissues or complex organs via the combination of viable cells, biomimetic scaffolds, morphogenic factors, and external biophysical cues are the principle aims of Tissue Engineering (TE). TE relies on the use of artificial 3D scaffolds that can mimic the microenvironment of native tissue to harness the regenerative potential of cells. LÄS MER
