  2. 1. Thiol-Ene/Yne Adhesives for Tissue Fixation

    Author : Viktor Granskog; Michael Malkoch; Philip Messersmith; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : The utilization of adhesives in surgery has not reached its full potential and research in the field is encouraged by the surgeons’ desire for improved alternatives to today’s tissue fixation strategies. Here, adhesive resins based on thiol-ene coupling (TEC) chemistry or thiol-yne coupling (TYC) chemistry are exploited to develop tissue adhesives that cure fast and on-demand via photoinitiation.

  4. 2. Photochemical Ligation Techniques for Carbohydrate Biosensors and Protein Interaction Studies

    Author : Oscar Norberg; Olof Ramström; Stéphane Vincent; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbohydrates; Biosensors; CuAAC; Photochemistry; Thiol-ene yne; Perfluorophenylazide PFPA ; Lectins; Molecular recognition; Quartz crystal microbalance QCM ; Surface plasmon resonance SPR ;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the development of surface ligation techniques for the preparation of carbohydrate biosensors. Several methodologies were developed based on efficient photochemical insertion reactions which quickly functionalize polymeric materials, with either carbohydrates or functional groups such as alkynes or alkenes.

  5. 3. Advanced Functional Thin Films and Networks towards Biological Applications

    Author : Surinthra Mongkhontreerat; Michael Malkoch; Anders Hult; David Haddleton; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Functional polymeric scaffolds have been employed in biological applications as several utilities, from nano-sized drug delivery systems to concrete implants. The progression in biological fields essentially relies on finding an appropriate material to fulfil the critical requirements for various types of applications with great potential for tuning functionality and mechanical properties.
