  1. 1. Imaging of lipids and proteins in Alzheimer's disease using Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry

    Författare :Louise M Carlred; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; QCM-D; fluorescence microscopy; ToF-SIMS; Amyloid-β; immunohistochemistry; Sulfatides; antibodies; liposomes; Alzheimer’s disease; Cholesterol;

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the formation of senile plaques. These plaques, which consist of aggregations of a peptide called amyloid-β, are deposited in-between the nerve cells in the brain, where they disrupt the signaling processes. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Development and Evaluation of Preparation Methods for the Analysis of Cell Membranes Using Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry

    Författare :Jakob Malm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; salt; cryofixation; TOF-SIMS; supported phospholipid bilayer; freeze drying; vacuum; cells; POPC; glutaraldehyde;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this work was to evaluate and develop methods for preparing dry samples for TOF-SIMS analysis of cell membranes. For correct interpretation of the analysis data, an understanding of the effects that the preparation method has on the morphology and chemical structure of the sample must first be obtained.

  4. 3. Single fluid inclusion analysis using ToF-SIMS : Implications for ancient Earth biodiversiy and paleoenvironment studies

    Författare :Sandra Siljeström; Jukka Lausmaa; Andrew Steele; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ToF-SIMS; time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry; fluid inclusions; biomarkers; hopanes; steranes; early life; paleoenvironment; oil; eukaryotes; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; geokemi; Geochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : When and how life first emerged on the Earth is an area of intense research. Signs of the first life on Earth, including morphological fossils, are scarce and hard to interpret. An alternative approach is to study organic biomarkers, which are molecular fossils commonly considered as bona fide biosignatures. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Molecular and epidemiological studies on eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome

    Författare :Amelie Botling Taube; Jonas Bergquist; Albert Alm; Eva Larsson; Hannu Uusitalo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pseduoexfoliation syndrome; PEX; aqueous humor; cataract; cataract surgery; lens capsule; proteomics; mass spectrometry; MS; MALDI TOF MS MS; quantitative proteomics; iTRAQ; dimethyl labeling; imaging mass spectrometry; IMS; time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry; TOF-SIMS; crystallin; epidemiology; risk factor; Ophtalmology; Oftalmiatrik;

    Sammanfattning : Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome is an age-related condition characterized by the production and accumulation of extracellular fibrillary material in the anterior segment of the eye. PEX predisposes for several pathological conditions, such as glaucoma and complications during and after cataract surgery. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Towards Anti-Virulence Antimicrobials, Discovery and Development of Sortase A Inhibitors and Investigations of Bacterial Phenotypes

    Författare :Patrick M. Wehrli; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sortase A; SrtA; Inhibitors; Anti-virulence; Bacterial analysis; FTIR spectroscopy; Bacterial phenotyping; Design of Experiment; Multivariate Data Analysis; PCA; ToF-SIMS; Time-of-flight secondary-ion-mass-spectrometry; Lipid analysis; ppGpp; Stringent response;

    Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance is an emerging and serious threat to public health. Immediate actions are required to preserve current antibiotics while intensifying research efforts towards the development of new effective therapeutics. LÄS MER
