16. Silicon cycling in the Baltic Sea : Trends and budget of dissolved silica
Sammanfattning : The dissolved silicon (DSi) has a crucial role for growth of a large group of primary producers – diatoms and, hence, impact on functioning of the aquatic food web. This thesis contributes to an increased understanding of the modifications of the DSi cycling in the Baltic Sea. LÄS MER
17. Synthesis and modification of potential CO2 adsorbents : Amine modified silica and calcium carbonates
Sammanfattning : The prospect of rapid changes to the climate due to global warming is subject of public concern. The need to reduce the emissions of atmospheric green house gases and in particular carbon dioxide is greater than ever. Extensive research is performed to find new solutions and new materials, which tackles this problem in economically benign way. LÄS MER
18. Toxicological and Immunomodulatory Properties of Mesoporous Silica Particles : Applications in Life Sciences
Sammanfattning : Mesoporous silica particles offer great potential benefits as vehicles for drug delivery and in other biomedical applications. They present a high loading capacity due their ordered and size-tuneable pores that allow molecules to be loaded and released. LÄS MER
19. Structure and Dynamics of Silica Dispersions and Gels
Sammanfattning : This thesis deal with the sol-gel transition of two quite different systems, both based on silica. The overall aim is to understand what interactions lead to this sol-gel transition and how the structure and dynamics change as a result of this.The first project concern the gelation of water glass, also known as alkaline sodium silicate solutions.

20. Dynamics of Enzyme Immobilization in Mesoporous Silica Particles
Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is placed on the dynamic behavior of proteins in confining environments which is studied as a scientific challenge for a deeper understanding of the immobilization mechanism and a better designing of enzyme immobilization in porous materials. Enzymes are immobilized in porous materials to improve the enzyme activity and simplify their purification from the product solution in biocatalytic applications. LÄS MER
