1. Vesicle - surfactant interactions : effect of non-ionic surfactants on structure and leakage of small unilamellar vesicles
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. Liposomes for Drug Delivery : from Physico-chemical Studies to Applications
Sammanfattning : Physico-chemical characterisation of structure and stability of liposomes intended for drug delivery is the central issue in this thesis. In addition, targeted liposomes to be used in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) were developed.Lysolipids and fatty acids are products formed upon hydrolysis of PC-lipids. LÄS MER
3. Drug Partitioning into Natural and Artificial Membranes : Data Applicable in Predictions of Drug Absorption
Sammanfattning : When drug molecules are passively absorbed through the cell membrane in the small intestine, the first key step is partitioning of the drug into the membrane. Partition data can therefore be used to predict drug absorption. LÄS MER
4. Enrichment and Separation of Phosphorylated Peptides on Titanium Dioxide Surfaces : Applied and Fundamental Studies
Sammanfattning : Protein phosphorylation is a very common posttranslational modification (PTM), which lately has been found to hold the keyrole in the development of many severe diseases, including cancer. Thereby, phosphoprotein analysis tools, generally based on specific enrichment of the phosphoryl group, have been a hot topic during the last decade. LÄS MER
5. Effects of Ubiquinone-10 on the Stability and Mechanical Properties of Lipid Membranes
Sammanfattning : Ubiquinones are a group of fat-soluble molecules present in many biological membranes. The most abundant version in humans, ubiquinone-10 (Q10), plays an important role in the mitochondrial respiration chain and also functions as a powerful antioxidant. Accumulating evidence suggests that Q10 also could have other functions in the membrane. LÄS MER
