  2. 1. Magnetic bead-based isolation of biological therapeutic modalities

    Author : Nils A. Brechmann; Véronique Chotteau; Nigel Titchener-Hooker; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Magnetic bead separation; Magnetic beads; Protein A; Protein G; Negative cell isolation; Monoclonal antibody; induced pluripotent stem cells; human mesenchymal stem cells; Allogenic cell therapy; Biomanufacturing; cell clarification; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Biopharmaceutical modalities, such as monoclonal antibodies or the less established cell therapies, are nowadays very important for the treatment of severe or incurable diseases. The manufacturing of such modalities is complex and costly, including the downstream processing, which is highly essential to ensure the safety and quality of the product. READ MORE

  4. 2. Molecular Diagnostics Using Volume-Amplified Magnetic Nanobeads : Towards the Development of a Novel Biosensor System

    Author : Mattias Strömberg; Maria Strømme; Peter Svedlindh; Mikkel Fougt Hansen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Magnetic Biosensors; Ferrofluid; Biofunctionalisation; Ferrofluidic Aging; Interbead Interactions; Magnetic Nanobeads; Complex Magnetisation; Brownian Relaxation; Padlock Probes; Rolling Circle Amplification; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : Micro- or nanometer sized magnetic particles (beads) currently have a vast range of life science applications in, for example, bioseparation techniques, cancer therapy, development of contrast agents and biosensing techniques. In the latter field, magnetic beads offer several unique advantages, including minimal background signals, physical and chemical stability and low manufacturing costs. READ MORE

    Abstract : The organisation of fluids in small compartments is ubiquitous in nature, such as in the cellular composition of all life. This work explores several engineering avenues where microscale fluid compartmentalization can bring novel material properties or novel functionality in life sciences or medicine. READ MORE

  6. 4. Constraint Induced Movement Therapy : influence of restraint and type of training on performance and on brain plasticity

    Author : Christina Brogårdh; Bengt H Sjölund; Michael Nilsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Medicine; Constraint induced movement therapy; hand; stroke; group practise; reliability; mode of training; dexterity; brain plasticity; Medicin; rehabiliteringsmedicin; Rehabilitation Medicine;

    Abstract : Partial paralysis of the hand is one of the main impairments after stroke. Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIT) is a new treatment technique that appears to improve upper extremity function after stroke. READ MORE

  7. 5. Implementation of MRI gel dosimetry in radiation therapy

    Author : Sven Bäck; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oncology; Cytology; uncertainty; detector; dosimeter; ferrous ions; gel dosimetry; magnetic resonance imaging; monomers; polymerisation; proton; treatment planning verification; radiation therapy; cancerology; Cytologi; onkologi; cancer;

    Abstract : Gel dosimetry was used together with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to measure three-dimensional absorbed dose distributions in radiation therapy. Two different dosimeters were studied: ferrous- and monomer gel, based on the principles of radiation-induced oxidation and polymerisation, respectively. READ MORE
