  2. 1. Electroosmosis Based Treatment Approach for Cerebral Edema

    Author : Teng Wang; Xiaogai Li; Svein Kleiven; Tiit Illimar Mathiesen; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cerebral edema; electroosmosis based treatment; finite element head model; electroosmotic flow; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

    Abstract : Cerebral edema characterized as an abnormal accumulation of excess fluid in the intracellular or extracellular spaces has not been treated effectively despite aggressive treatments. As a result, cerebral edema often leads to intracranial pressure (ICP) elevation with potentially severe consequences unless treated effectively. READ MORE

  4. 2. Enantiomeric Separations using Chiral Counter-Ions

    Author : Jakob Haglöf; Curt Pettersson; Anders Karlsson; Jacques Crommen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Capillary Electrophoresis; Chiral Counter-Ion; Divalent Dipeptide; Enantioselectivity; Electroosmosis; Chemometrics; Molecular Descriptor; Structure-Enantioselectivity Relationship; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Farmaceutisk kemi; Analytical Pharmaceutical Chemistry; Analytisk farmaceutisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the use of chiral counter-ions for the enantiomeric separation of amines in non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis. The investigations have been concentrated on studies of the influence, of the chiral counter-ion, the solvent, the electrolyte and the analyte, on the enantioselective separation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Transport of Heavy Metals in Soil Subjected to an Electric Field -A Study of the Transport of Copper in Bentonite Clay

    Author : Klas Arnerdal; KTH; []
    Keywords : Electrokinetic soil remediation; bentonite; copper; adsorption; electromigration; electroosmosis; pH; potential;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis addressesphosphorus release from sewage sludge, which is the first stepin phosphorus recovery. The concept ofphosphorus recovery maybe seen as a part of sustainable sludge handling in that it isa means of recycling resources without supplying harmfulsubstances to humans or the environment.

  6. 4. Separation of Proteins with Capillary Electrophoresis in Coated Capillaries with and without Electroosmosis : Studies on Zone Broadening and Analytical Performances

    Author : Sheila Mohabbati; Douglas Westerlund; Bo Karlberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Pharmaceutical chemistry; Capillary electrophoresis; capillary coatings; proteins; zone broadening; zone sharpening; efficiency; resolution; protein-surface adsorption; protein-buffer interaction; analytical performance; Farmaceutisk kemi;

    Abstract : Proteins have such structural features that they may interact with different types of surfaces by all possible forces, i.e., electrostatic, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic. In this thesis two different types of coatings for fused silica capillaries aimed to eliminate such interactions have been studied. READ MORE

  7. 5. Organs-on-chips for the pharmaceutical development process : design perspectives and implementations

    Author : Jonas Christoffersson; Carl-Fredrik Mandenius; Danny van Noort; Peter Sartipy; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Organs-on-chips; cell culture models; pharmaceutical development; microfluidics;

    Abstract : Organs-on-chips are dynamic cell culture devices created with the intention to mimic organ function in vitro. Their purpose is to assess the toxicity and efficacy of drugs and, as early as possible in the pharmaceutical development process, predict the outcome of clinical trials. READ MORE
