1. Evaluating Cathode Catalysts in the Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell
Sammanfattning : The polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) converts the chemical energy of hydrogen and oxygen (air) into usable electrical energy. At the cathode (the positive electrode), a considerable amount of platinum is generally required to catalyse the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). LÄS MER
2. Advances in analytical methodologies for studies of the platinum metallome in malignant cells exposed to cisplatin
Sammanfattning : The scientific progress about the important chemotherapeutic drug substance cisplatin (CDDP) and its function has often been rendered by data difficult to interpret, and still many questions about its mode of action remains to be clarified by the scientific community. However, studies of CDDP possess a high complexity due to; i) low intracellular concentration, ii) many potential biomolecule targets, iii) poor or unknown stability of the intact drug and its biomolecule adducts and iv) complex and varying sample matrices.

3. Electrochemical Reactions in Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells
Sammanfattning : The polymer electrolyte fuel cell converts the chemical energy in a fuel, e.g. hydrogen or methanol, and oxygen into electrical energy. The high efficiency and the possibility to use fuel from renewable sources make them attractive as energy converters in future sustainable energy systems. LÄS MER
4. Reactions of Model and Anticancer Active Platinum(IV/II) Complexes - A Kinetic and Mechanistic Study
Sammanfattning : In this thesis reductions of model and anticancer active Pt(IV) complexes with thiols and ascorbic acid and substitution reactions of cisplatin and model Pt(II) complexes with S-donor nucleophiles (rescue agents) have been investigated using stopped-flow and UV/VIS spectrophotometry. Glutathione (GSH) reduction of the anticancer active Pt(IV) compounds t- and c-[PtCl4(cha)(NH3)] (cha = cyclohexylamine), t-[PtCl4(thiazole)(NH3)] and c-[PtCl4(NH3)2] at 25 oC was observed to be very fast.

5. The many-electron energy in density functional theory : from exchange-correlation functional design to applied electronic structure calculations
Sammanfattning : Att förutsäga egenskaper hos material och kemiska system är en viktig komponent för teoretisk och teknisk utveckling i fysik, kemi och biologi. Ett systems egenskaper styrs till stor del av dess elektrontillstånd. Datorprogram som baseras på täthetsfunktionalsteori kan beskriva elektronkonfigurationer mycket noggrant. LÄS MER
