  2. 1. Theoretical Reflections of Solvation in Polar Media

    Author : Daniel Hagberg; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; kvantkemi; Teoretisk kemi; quantum chemistry; Theoretical chemistry; Coordination; Water; Uranyl; Intermolecular forces; Simulation; Dielectric; Cluster; Hofmeister series; Ion; Interaction; Dipole;

    Abstract : Using experiments it is rather easy to measure things on the macroscopic length scale, while it is much harder to measure something in the microscopic world like molecular structure. The opposite is true in theoretical chemistry. READ MORE

  4. 2. Protein stability and mobility in live cells : Revelation of the intracellular diffusive interaction organization mechanisms

    Author : Xin Mu; Mikael Oliveberg; Johan Elf; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; diffusive interactions; macromolecular crowding; protein thermodynamic stability; protein mobility; in-cell NMR; Hofmeister series; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Biochemical processes inside living cells take place in a confined and highly crowded environment. As such, macromolecular crowding, one of the most important physicochemical properties of cytoplasm, is an essential element of cell physiology. READ MORE

  5. 3. Interactions in aqueous salt solutions : Atomistic modelling versus experiment

    Author : Vidar Aspelin; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; statistisk mekanik; molekylär modellering; MD simuleringar; MC simuleringar; statistical mechanics; molecular simulation; MD simulations; MC simulations; Kirkwood-Buff theory; Hofmeister series;

    Abstract : The research in this thesis investigates how atoms and molecules constituting aqueous salt solutions interact using computational approaches, namely Monte Carlo simulations and molecular dynamics simulations. In the first paper, an atomistic model was developed for aqueous solutions of sodium thiocyanate and potassium thiocyanate (NaSCN and KSCN). READ MORE

  6. 4. Small and Large, Charged Molecules in Solution and at Interfaces

    Author : Giulio Tesei; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; molecular modeling; MD simulations; statistical mechanics; SAXS; QCM-D; Hofmeister series; amyloid fibril; lipid bilayer; cell-penetrating peptide; molekylär modellering; MD simuleringar; MC simuleringar; statistisk mekanik; SAXS; QCM-D; amyloidfibriller; cellmembran; cellpenetrerande peptider;

    Abstract : The influence of small and large, charged molecules on the properties of aqueous interfaces has important implications in chemistry, biology, and medicine. For example, at the surface of marine aerosols, the presence of halide anions and tropospheric gases gives way to multiphase chemical reactions affecting climate and air quality. READ MORE

  7. 5. From Silica Nano-Particles to Silica Gels and Beyond - Salt Induced Aggregation of Silica Nano-Particles and the Stability of Resultant Gels

    Author : Christian Sögaard; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Silica; Nanoparticles; grouting; Specific ion effects; Nanomaterial;

    Abstract : Aqueous silica nanoparticle suspensions are widely available and used within a number of industries. A relatively new area of application is as a grouting material for sealing narrow fractures in tunnels. READ MORE
