  1. 11. Adsorption of molecular thin films on metal and metal oxide surfaces

    Author : Zahra Besharat; Mats Göthelid; Mark Rutland; Magnus Johnson; W. Gregory Sawyer; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Self assembled monolayer SAM ; dye synthesis solar cell DSSC ; thiol; selenol; Cu2O 100 ; Cu2O 111 and dehydrogenation; Fysik; Physics; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : Metal and metal oxides are widely used in industry, and to optimize their performance their surfaces are commonly functionalized by the formation of thin films. Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are deposited on metals or metal oxides either from solution or by gas deposition. READ MORE

  2. 12. Interfacial Properties of Biomacromolecular Model Systems: Surface Forces and Nanotribology

    Author : Niklas Nordgren; Mark Rutland; Harry Brumer III; Robert Pelton; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; afm; surface force; friction; composite material; model surface; quartz crystal microbalance; dissipation; cellulose; xyloglucan; chitosan; colloidal probe; nanotribology; biomimetic; enzymatic; polysaccharide; graft; fiber; thiol; spring constant; calibration; lubrication; polyion; responsive.; Surface and colloid chemistry; Yt- och kolloidkemi;

    Abstract : The nanotribology, adhesion and related interfacial properties of biomacromolecular systems have been studied.  The aim was to elucidate the role of physisorbed and chemically grafted bio-polymers implicated as mediators for cellulose based processing and material design. READ MORE

  3. 13. Studies on Thiol-Disulfide Oxidoreductases in Bacillus subtilis

    Author : Mirja Carlsson Möller; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; Microbiology; bacteriology; bacterial sporulation; endospore; thioredoxin; Thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase;

    Abstract : Bacillus subtilis is a model organism for endospore-forming gram-positive bacteria. Endospores are formed in response to nutrient starvation. They can resist harsh environments and last for long periods of time. Once nutrients again become available, the endospore can germinate and the vegetative life cycle be resumed. READ MORE

  4. 14. Membrane-bound thiol-disulfide oxidoreductases in Bacillus subtilis

    Author : Lydur Erlendsson; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; virologi; mykologi; Mikrobiologi; mycology; virology; bacteriology; Microbiology; sporulation; cytochrome c; thiol-disulfide oxidoreductases; Bacillus subtilis; membrane proteins; bakteriologi;

    Abstract : Disulfide bonds in proteins are found between cysteine residues and are usually important for either function or stability of proteins. Thiol-disulfide oxidoreductases catalyse the formation or breakage of disulfide bonds in proteins. READ MORE

  5. 15. Thiol-Ene CHemistry and Dopa-Functional Materials towards Biomedical Applications

    Author : Kristina Olofsson; Anders Hult; Michael Malkoch; Anders Daugaard; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thiol-ene chemistry; DOPA; biomedical; UV; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Thiol-ene chemistry is versatile and efficient and can be used as a powerful tool in polymer synthesis. In this thesis, the concept of thiol-ene chemistry has been central, where it has been explored as a tool for the synthesis of well-defined hydrogels and dopa-functional materials towards biomedical applications; such as hydrogels, primers for adhesive fixation of bone fractures, self-healing gels, and micelles for drug-delivery.
