1. Interaction Between Microgels and Oppositely Charged Peptides
Sammanfattning : Lightly cross-linked polyelectrolyte microgels are materials with interesting properties for a range of applications. For instance, the volume of these particles can be drastically changed in response to pH, ionic strength, temperature, or the concentration of specific ions and metabolites. LÄS MER
2. The creation of antibacterial fibres through physical adsorption of polyelectrolytes
Sammanfattning : Contact-active antibacterial surfaces with irreversibly attached antibacterial com-pounds are a sustainable alternative to traditional biocides. No chemicals are released into nature and the antibacterial mechanism reduces the risk of the evolution of re-sistant bacteria. LÄS MER
3. Biomolecular Interactions with Porous Silicon
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
4. Electrochemical Studies of Redox Properties and Diffusion in Self-Assembled Systems
Sammanfattning : In this thesis electron transfer reactions and diffusion of redox molecules in three different types of self-aggregated structures are investigated. Electrochemistry was used to investigate the redox potential and diffusion coefficients for redox active molecules with different polarity. The first aggregate system studied was the micellar phase.

5. Polymeric Nanoparticles as Carriers for Antimicrobial Peptides : Factors Affecting Peptide and Membrane Interactions
Sammanfattning : As resistance towards conventional antibiotics is becoming more pronounced, cationic antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have received considerable attention as possible therapeutic alternatives. Thousands of potent AMPs occur in humans, animals, plants and fungi as a natural part of the immune system. LÄS MER
