  2. 21. Synchrotron-based characterization of mechanobiological effects on the nanoscale in musculoskeletal tissues

    Author : Isabella Silva Barreto; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nanoscale; microscale; mechanical properties; synchrotron; x-ray imaging; collagen; hydroxyapatite; biomechanics; experimental mechanics; x-ray tomography; small-angle x-ray scattering SAXS ; wide-angle x-ray scattering WAXS ; x-ray fluorescence XRF ; small-angle x-ray scattering tensor tomography SASTT ; Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy FTIR ; polarized light microscopy PLM ; bone development; Achilles tendon; tendon healing;

    Abstract : Collagen is the main organic building block of musculoskeletal tissues. Despite collagen being their smallest load bearing unit, these tissues differ significantly in mechanical function and properties. A major factor behind these differences is their hierarchical organization, from the collagen molecule up to the organ scale. READ MORE

  4. 22. Application of Vibrational Spectroscopy in Organic Electronics

    Author : Mohammad Javad Jafari; Thomas Ederth; Isak Engquist; Annemarie Pucci; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The rapid technological developments enforce us to live in an increasingly electronic world, and the revolutionary usage of conjugated polymers in electronics in the late 1970s accelerated these developments, based on the unique characteristics of conjugated polymers, such as low cost, easy processing, mechanical flexibility, large-area application and compatibility with a variety of substrates. Organic electronic devices are commercially available in the form of, for example, solar cells, transistors, and organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays. READ MORE

  5. 23. Molecular analysis of lake-sediment organic matter : long-term dynamics and environmental implications in boreal lakes

    Author : Sofia Ninnes; Richard Bindler; Xiao-Ru Wang; Christian Bigler; Hendrik Vogel; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lake sediment; Holocene; organic matter; Pyrolysis-GC MS; mid-infrared spectroscopy; boreal;

    Abstract : Lake sediment organic matter is material composed of residues from plants, algae, animals, fungi and bacteria. Its molecular composition is dependent on the sources as well as secondary biotic and abiotic transformations, which combined generates a highly complex matrix. READ MORE

  6. 24. Interactions between Wood Polymers in Wood Cell Walls and Cellulose/Hemicellulose Biocomposites

    Author : Jasna Stevanic Srndovic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dynamic FTIR spectroscopy; viscoelasticity; orientation; Norway spruce; protein; glucomannan; xyloglucan; polymer interactions; pectin; imaging FTIR microscopy; primary cell wall; nanocomposite films; dynamic 2D FTIR spectroscopy; xylan; wood fibre; cellulose; secondary cell wall; DMA; lignin;

    Abstract : A wood fibre is a complex multi component biocomposite that is hierarchically organised. The arrangement of a wood fibre on the ultrastructural level is highlycontrolled by the interactions between the main structural polymers, i.e. cellulose, various hemicelluloses and lignin, as well as in some parts also pectin and protein.
