  1. 16. Concentration measurements in single particle microscopy

    Författare :Magnus Röding; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; diffusion; fluorescence microscopy; nanoparticle characterization; number concentration; optical wide-field microscopy; single particle tracking; Smoluchowski process; diffusion;

    Sammanfattning : The topic of this thesis is the introduction of two novel methods for using single particle microscopy as a tool for absolute number concentration measurements of Brownian particles. The key idea of both methods is that in order to estimate number concentration, the size of the (three-dimensional) particle detection region has to be estimated. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Probing Biomolecular Recognition at the Single Molecule Level

    Författare :Anders Gunnarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cell membrane; TIRFM; liposome; time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry; membrane receptor; single molecule; TOF-SIMS; molecular recognition; DNA; barcode; total internal reflection; multiplexing;

    Sammanfattning : Specific recognition between biomolecular partners contributes to a multitude of biochemical signaling within and between cells. The aim of this work has been to investigate the possibility to probe biomolecular recognition reactions at the smallest possible scale, the single molecule level. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Overstretching short DNA – Single-molecule force spectroscopy studies

    Författare :Niklas Bosaeus; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DNA stretching; mechanical properties of DNA; single molecule; optical tweezers; DNA structure;

    Sammanfattning : Structural deformation of DNA has a central role in many biological processes. It occurs, for example, during replication, transcription, and regulation of the activity of the genome. To understand these fundamental processes it is necessary to have a detailed knowledge of the mechanical properties of DNA. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Single-­molecule spectroscopy of π-­conjugated polymers

    Författare :Oleg Mirzov; Kemisk fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fluorescence lifetime; low temperature; spectral diffusion; blinking; MEH-PPV; Single-molecule spectroscopy; π-conjugated polymers; 2D polarization; Monte Carlo; energy transfer;

    Sammanfattning : When applied to condensed-matter samples of large organic molecules, optical spectroscopy faces the problem of inhomogeneous broadening caused by the diversity of environments and conformations that sample molecules are subjected to. This severely limits the information that can be extracted from optical spectra. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Quantification of gene expression in single cells

    Författare :Martin Bengtsson; Islet cell physiology; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Biomedical sciences; Biomedicinska vetenskaper; quantitative gene expression analysis; single cell PCR; islets of Langerhans;

    Sammanfattning : Studies of apparently homogeneous cell populations and single cells often give highly divergent results. Cells exhibit varying responsiveness to stimuli and gene expression and they are in many aspects stochastic and unpredictable. We have developed a method to measure gene expression quantitatively in individual cells with real-time RT-PCR. LÄS MER
