  1. 21. Fighting microbial infections with force fields: Evaluating conformational ensembles of intrinsically disordered proteins

    Författare :Stephanie Jephthah; Beräkningskemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; molecular dynamics; force field; Monte Carlo; coarse-grained modeling; simulation; intrinsically disordered protein; histatin 5; small-angle x-ray scattering; circular dichroism; atomistic MD simulations; all-atom protein models;

    Sammanfattning : The main goal of this compilation thesis has been to investigate the conformational ensemble of the intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) histatin 5 by using a mixture of experimental and computational techniques including, but not limited to, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and coarse-grained Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. Histatin 5 is a peptide of particular interest for two reasons. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Crystallization on the Mesoscale : Self-Assembly of Iron Oxide Nanocubes into Mesocrystals

    Författare :Michael Agthe; Lennart Bergström; German Salazar-Alvarez; Tommy Nylander; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Self-assembly; iron oxide nanocubes; mesocrystal; small angle X-ray scattering; video microscopy; QCM-D; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Sammanfattning : Self-assembly of nanoparticles is a promising route to form complex, nanostructured materials with functional properties. Nanoparticle assemblies characterized by a crystallographic alignment of the nanoparticles on the atomic scale, i.e. mesocrystals, are commonly found in nature with outstanding functional and mechanical properties.

  3. 23. Polymer effects on microemulsions and lamellar phases

    Författare :Håkan Bagger-Jörgensen; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Poisson-Boltzmann equation; hard sphere; osmometry; small angle scattering; phase behaviour; hydrophobically modified polyelectrolyte; hydrophobically modified polymer; nonionic surfactant; microemulsion; lamellar phase; undulation force; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The main part of this thesis deals with the effects of adsorbing and non-adsorbing polymers when mixed with microemulsion droplets and bilayers in a lamellar phase. The phase behaviour, microstructure and interactions in a nonionic surfactant/ water/ oil-system, comprising penta ethylene oxide dodecyl ether (C12E5) and decane, was investigated. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Assembly and alignment in cellulose nanomaterial-based composite dispersions and thermally insulating foams

    Författare :Pierre Munier; Lennart Bergström; Aji Mathew; Steve Eichhorn; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cellulose nanomaterials; composites; assembly; alignment; x-ray scattering; foams; thermal insulation; mechanical strengthening; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Sammanfattning : Research on nanoparticles extracted from renewable and highly available sources is motivated by both the development of functional nanomaterials and the drive to replace widely used materials based on fossil resources. In particular, cellulose, in the form of cellulose nanomaterials (CNM), has attracted increased attention for the development of sustainable and high performance products, thanks to properties that include high specific mechanical strength, chemical versatility and anisotropic thermal conductivity.

  5. 25. Mesoporous Silica Formed with Triblock Copolymers

    Författare :Katarina Flodström; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysikalisk kemi; 1H NMR; TEM; SAXS; in situ; mechanism of formation; cubic Ia3d; cubic Im3m; Mesoporous; synthesis; Pluronic; SBA-16; SBA-15; hexagonal p6mm; synchrotron SAXS; Physical chemistry; amphiphilic polymers; silica;

    Sammanfattning : The formation of highly ordered mesoporous silica materials, using PEO-PPO-PEO amphiphilic triblock copolymers (so-called Pluronics) as structure directing agents, has been studied. The materials are formed through the addition of a silica source to a polymer solution of low concentration (2.5 wt ) under acidic conditions. LÄS MER
