  2. 1. Effect of hydration on thermodynamic, rheological and structural properties of mucin

    Author : Yana Znamenskaya; Malmö högskola; []
    Keywords : mucous gel; mucus; mucin; PGM; BSM; BSM chitosan multilayers; hydration; water sorption isotherm; relative humidity; water activity; bound water; enthalpy of hydration of biopolymer; glass transition; rheology; phase diagram; fiber-like structure; dumbbell-like structure; sorption calorimetry; DSC; QCM-D; SAXS; AFM;

    Abstract : Mucus, an adherent hydrated layer covering the epithelium, is found in all internal tracts of the body and plays an important role in animal and human life. One of the essential functions of mucus is protection of tissues against dehydration. READ MORE

  4. 2. Interactions of Biopolymers and Metalcomplexes at Biological Interfaces

    Author : Jildiz Hamit Eminovski; Malmö högskola; []
    Keywords : Mucin; BSM; Microthrix parvicella; polyaluminium chloride; ellipsometry; QCM-D; AFM;

    Abstract : The present work concerns interaction between biopolymers at interfaces. Examples from real systems such as saliva and bacterial surfaces as well as model systems have been studied. READ MORE

  5. 3. Exotic Decays of Vector-Like Quarks and Development of a Test Procedure for the ITk Strip Module at the ATLAS Detector for the HL-LHC

    Author : Thomas Mathisen; Elin Bergeås Kuutmann; Venugopal Ellajosyula; Richard Brenner; Freya Blekman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Standard Model; BSM; Composite Higgs; Fine-tuning; Naturalness; Vector-Like Quarks; HL-LHC; Fysik med inriktning mot elementarpartikelfysik; Physics with specialization in Elementary Particle Physics;

    Abstract : The naturalness problem of the Standard Model (SM) challenges our understanding of the origin of mass. Several theories have been proposed to tackle the problem, one of them is the Composite Higgs Model (CHM) where the Higgs boson of the SM is not an elementary scalar but instead a composite object bound at a confinement scale of a TeV.

  6. 4. Exploration of extended Higgs sectors, development of a displaced track trigger, and improvements in GRID middleware

    Author : Max Isacson; Elin Bergeås Kuutmann; Patrizia Azzi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; BSM; Supersymmetry; Standard Model; Higgs; 2HDM; Charged Higgs; Compositeness; Pattern Matching; GRID; Fysik med inriktning mot elementarpartikelfysik; Physics with specialization in Elementary Particle Physics;

    Abstract : Two possible solutions to the Standard Model (SM) fine-tuning problem are presented in this thesis, MSSM and Compositeness. The Higgs sector of the MSSM can be tested by searching for charged Higgs bosons. Two direct searches for charged Higgs bosons decaying into a top- and bottom-quark are performed using 13.2 and 36.

  7. 5. On the adsorption behaviour of saliva and purified salivary proteins at solid/liquid interfaces

    Author : Liselott Lindh; Malmö högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; acidic proline-rich proteins; adsorption; BSM; diffusion; ellipsometry; interfaces; mass transport limitation; mucins; MUC5B; saliva; salivary proteins; statherin; surface properties;

    Abstract : Den salivfilm som bildas genom selektiv proteinadsorption på ytor i munhålan har stor profylaktisk betydelse genom sin skyddande funktion och befrämjar därigenom oral hälsa. Några av de adsorberade komponenterna har smörjande funktion (t ex muciner, sura prolinrika proteiner (PRP) och statherin), som är viktig bl a för att förhindra slitage mellan tandytor vid tuggning och hos gnisslare.
