  2. 11. Osteotomy for gonarthrosis - with special reference to the tibial callus distraction technique

    Author : Göran Magyar; Lund Ortopedi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiostereometry; radiography; arthroplasty; complications; coating; hydroxyapatite; external fixator; femoral osteotomy; hemicallotasis; Knee osteoarthritis; tibial osteotomy; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

    Abstract : Osteotomy is used for correction of the altered load on the gonarthrotic knee joint. It can be performed above or below the knee. Clinical results depend on the correction after bone healing. READ MORE

  4. 12. Recombinant amelogenin - Strategies for purification and protein processing

    Author : Johan Svensson Bonde; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Recombinant amelogenin; protein purification; fusion protein; purification tag; enamel; hydroxyapatite; matrix protein; dental regeneration; wound healing; bone formation;

    Abstract : Amelogenin is an extracellular matrix protein involved in formation of enamel during early tooth development. By interacting with the forming enamel crystallites amelogenin affects their growth, so that highly elongated hydroxyapatite crystals are formed. READ MORE

  5. 13. Hyaluronan Derivatives and Injectable Gels for Tissue Engineering

    Author : Kristoffer Bergman; Tim Bowden; Jöns Hilborn; Jeffrey Hubbell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hyaluronan; Hydrogel; Tissue Engineering; Scaffold; Minimally invasive strategy; Bone morphogenetic protein; Hydroxyapatite; Bone; Cartilage; Tendon; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : The present work describes the preparation of hyaluronan derivatives and hydrogels with potential use in tissue engineering applications. A potentially injectable hydrogel consisting of hyaluronan and collagen was successfully used to grow neurons in vitro by encapsulation of neural stem and progenitor cells. READ MORE

  6. 14. Properties of Interfacial Proteinaceous Films with Emphasis on Oral Systems

    Author : Cecilia Hahn Berg; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; trypsin; SDS elutability; statherin; salivary proteins; salivary pellicle; proline-rich proteins; plaque control; mucins; microbial adhesion; lubrication; krillase; intraoral friction; hydroxyapatite; gelatin; exchange; enzymes; ellipsometry; dental plaque; degradation; colloidal probe; calcium-induced precipitation; adsorption; atomic force microscopy; total internal reflectance fluorescence spectroscopy;

    Abstract : The present thesis addresses three issues related to proteinaceous films at solid/liquid interfaces: adsorption, lubrication and enzymatic interactions. Most of the work has been devoted to oral systems. In addition, gelatin has been investigated as a model protein. READ MORE

  7. 15. On minimally invasive approaches to sinus lift procedures

    Author : Lars-Åke Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; autogenous bone graft; bone formation; clinical study; cone beam computed tomography; dental implants; ; flapless surgery; hydroxyapatite; osteotome technique; partially dentate maxillae; sinus lift surgery;

    Abstract : Abstract Aims: The overall aim of the present thesis was to evaluate implant survival and bone regeneration after minimally invasive sinus lift procedures. Material and methods: In study I, 61 patients were prospectively evaluated 12 to 60 months after two different methods of locally bone harvesting methods adjacent to the maxillary sinus lift procedure.
