  1. 1. The self-spreading double bilayer/Advances in lipid membrane nanotechnology

    Author : Irep Gözen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nanotechnology; pore; lipid double bilayer; rupture; crackling noise; tension; self-spreading; vesicle; flat giant unilamellar vesicle; viscous fingering.;

    Abstract : In my thesis I describe the generation, characterization and uses of self-spreading double bilayers. This new type of solid-supported model membrane combines features and properties of the 2D lipid bilayer membrane, and the 3D phospholiposome. The double bilayer membrane, i.e. READ MORE

  2. 2. Biosensing and Protein Array Design using Lipid Assemblies

    Author : Charlotte Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; protein adsorption; protein arrays; lipid bilayer; SPR; scFv; lipid vesicle; DNA arrays; QCM-D;

    Abstract : Biomolecular sensing often includes immobilization of biomolecules, e.g. DNA, antibodies etc., to solid supports, where they act as selective recognition elements. READ MORE

  3. 3. Advances in Soft Matter Nanofabrication

    Author : Mehrnaz Shaali; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; photolithography; negative e-beam resist; monolayer; confocal microscopy; Teflon AF; KPFM; DNA origami; cells; lipid nanotube; AFM; double bilayer; Phospholipid; electron beam lithography;

    Abstract : The focus of this thesis is placed on the fabrication of engineered nanodevices for the manipulation of soft matter thin films. By combining top-down micro- and nanofabrication approaches with bottom-up self-assembly strategies, new research platforms were developed, tested and characterized. READ MORE

  4. 4. Equilibrium and Kinetic Studies of the Binding of DNA to Cationic Liposomes

    Author : Paula Barreleiro; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Small-Angle Neutron Scattering; Fluorescence; Kinetics; Stopped-Flow; Differential Scanning Calorimetry; Titration Calorimetry; Gel-to-Liquid Crystalline Phase Transition; Lamellar phase; Lipolexes; DNA; Liposomes; Cryo-TEM; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : The objective of this work was to study the formation of DNA-cationic vesicle complexes (lipoplexes). These complexes are interesting not only from a fundamental point of view but also as promising candidates for gene therapy. The approach taken was to study first the cationic vesicles by themselves.

  5. 5. The evolution of the nuclear envelope

    Author : Nadja Neumann; Anthony Poole; Gáspár Jékely; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear pore complex; bouquet; meiosis; nucleus; eukaryote evolution; nucleoporin; tree of life; stem group; recombination; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology; molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : The nucleus is one of the defining features of eukaryotes and the question of its origin is intimately linked to the evolution of the eukaryotic cell. It is delimited by a double lipid bilayer called the nuclear envelope, which separates the nuclear interior from the cytoplasm. READ MORE
