   Author : Johan Sjödahl; KTH; []
   Keywords : Proteins; peptides; proteases; Antarctic krill; Euphausia superba; capillary electrophoresis; fluorosurfactants; mass spectrometry; nanoelectrospray; ESI; MALDI; chip; high-throughput; reproducibility; sensitivity; mass accuracy;

   Abstract : Proteins are a highly diversified group of molecules, andfor their study, advanced analytical tools are required. Inparticular, a need for high-throughput techniques has emergedin order to enable the characterization of large sets ofproteins. READ MORE

4. 2. Vibrational Sum Frequency Spectroscopy Studies at the Air-Liquid Interface

   Author : Eric Tyrode; Mark Rutland; Paul Davies; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sum Frequency Generation; SFG; VSFS; surfactant; adsorption; water; surface structure; hydration; surface tension; fluorosurfactants; liquid-air interface; poly ethylene oxide surfactants; surface molecular orientation; acetic acid.; Surface and colloid chemistry; Yt- och kolloidkemi;

   Abstract : In this thesis the structure and hydration of small organic and amphipilic compounds adsorbed at the air-liquid interface, have been studied using the nonlinear optical technique Vibrational Sum Frequency Spectroscopy (VSFS). The second order nature of the sum frequency process makes this technique particularly surface sensitive and very suitable for interfacial studies, as molecules at the surface can be distinguished even in the presence of a vast excess of the same molecules in the bulk.

5. 3. Interactions Between Biopolymers and Surfactants with Focus on Fluorosurfactants and Proteins

   Author : Lubica Macáková; Per Claesson; Fredrik Höök; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to obtain a better understanding of the association between surfactants and biopolymers in bulk solutions and at solid/aqueous liquid interface. In order to do this, the interactions between surfactants and biopolymers were investigated with a variety of experimental techniques. READ MORE

6. 4. Preparation, characterisation and wetting of fluorinated cellulose surfaces

   Author : Christian Aulin; Lars Wågberg; Sigbritt Karlsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with the wetting by oil mixtures of two different model cellulose surfaces. The surfaces studied were a regenerated cellulose (RG) surface prepared by spin-coating, and a film consisting of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEM) of Poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) and a carboxymethylated Microfibrillated Cellulose (MFC).

7. 5. Novel oil resistant cellulosic materials

   Author : Christian Aulin; Lars Wågberg; Derek Gray; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; oleophobic; MFC; cellulose; oil resistant; contact angle; XPS; SEM; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

   Abstract : The aim of this study has been to prepare and characterise oil resistant cellulosic materials, ranging from model surfaces to papers and aerogels. The cellulosic materials were made oil resistant by chemical and topographic modifications, based on surface energy, surface roughness and barrier approaches. READ MORE
