21. Blue Laser Source for Laser-Induced Fluorescence
Sammanfattning : Laser-induced fluorescence is a clinical diagnostic tool, used for tumor demarcation and detection. The technique relies on the injection or topical application of a light sensitive drug called a photosensitizer. This substance has the ability to be accumulated to higher concentrations in cancer cells than in normal cells. LÄS MER
22. Modern Computational Physical Chemistry : An Introduction to Biomolecular Radiation Damage and Phototoxicity
Sammanfattning : The realm of molecular physical chemistry ranges from the structure of matter and the fundamental atomic and molecular interactions to the macroscopic properties and processes arising from the average microscopic behaviour.Herein, the conventional electrodic problem is recast into the simpler molecular problem of finding the electrochemical, real chemical, and chemical potentials of the species involved in redox half-reactions.

23. Transpupillary thermotherapy and photodynamic therapy for neovascular age-related macular degeneration
Sammanfattning : Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible blindness among elderly in industrialized nations, and promises to extract an even greater toll with the imminent demographic shift. Neovascular AMD (wet AMD) often develops quickly and involves the growth of new blood vessels under the retina (choroidal neovascularization, CNV). LÄS MER
24. Multimodal Porphyrin-Based Conjugates : Synthesis and characterization for applications as amyloid ligands, photodynamic therapy agents and chiroptical materials
Sammanfattning : Organic compounds that interact both with certain biological targets and display specific photophysical properties can be utilized as molecular tools to visualize and possibly effect disease related processes taking place in living organisms. In this regard, porphyrins are a class of naturally occurring molecules that possess intriguingly interesting photophysical properties where they can act as luminescent probes by emitting detectable light, as well as photosensitizers in the light mediated therapy called photodynamic therapy.

25. Applications of laser spectroscopy to analytical chemistry, environmental monitoring and medicine
Sammanfattning : In this thesis spectroscopic techniques have been used in the fields of analytical chemistry, environmental and medical applications. In analytical chemistry, laser induced fluorescence was used to image the separation of substances during capillary electrophoresis. LÄS MER
