  2. 16. Properties of Protein and Polymer Systems

    Author : Fredrik Carlsson; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; lysozyme; mica; surface; dimerization; precipitation; aggregate; cluster; complex; polyelectrolyte; protein; polymer;

    Abstract : Interactions of proteins with other proteins, with polymers and with surfaces are of great practical importance within for instance protein purification, drug delivery, and food technology. The aim of this work is to increase the understanding of protein-protein, protein-polyelectrolyte, and protein-surface interactions, particularly concerning the role of electrostatic interactions in these systems.

  4. 17. Association and Interactions in Protein-Surfactant Systems

    Author : Anna Stenstam; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; catanionic surfactant; SANS; NMR; gel; sodium alkylsulfate; Protein-surfactant interactions; lysozyme; LH2; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : Aggregation in protein-surfactant systems have been studied with the ambition of reaching a deeper understanding of the balance of the interaction forces involved. A pure system with maximized electrostatic interactions has been used. READ MORE

  5. 18. Sweet stability

    Author : Kajsa Ahlgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; myoglobin; lysozyme; amyloid fibrils; DSC; trehalose; protein denaturation; neutron scattering; glass transition; sucrose;

    Abstract : The disaccharide trehalose is known for its ability to stabilise proteins by preventing aggregation and elevating their denaturation temperature, consequently avoiding unfolding. The folding and function of proteins are vital for many biological processes. READ MORE

  6. 19. Adsorption of biopolymers and their layer-by-layer assemblies on hydrophilic surfaces

    Author : Maria Lundin; Eva Blomberg; Thomas Arnebrant; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Layer-by-layer; multilayer; adsorption; biopolymers; Chitosan; Heparin; Mucin; Albumin; Lysozyme; β-casein; SDS; QCM-D; Ellipsometri; DPI; TIRF; FRET; SFA; layer structure; solvent content; vertical diffusion; exponential growth; solid-liquid interface; deposition conditions; Surface and colloid chemistry; Yt- och kolloidkemi;

    Abstract : It is widely known that surfaces play an important role in numerous biological processes and technological applications. Thus, being able to modify surface properties provides an opportunity to control many phenomena occurring at interfaces. READ MORE

  7. 20. Phase Phenomena in Polymer Networks : Empirical Studies on the Influence of Hydrophobicity, Charge Density and Crosslinks on Macroion-Induced Phase Transitions in Polyelectrolyte Gels

    Author : Martin Andersson; Per Hansson; Lennart Piculell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Gel; microgel; microsphere; polystyrenesulfonate; polyacrylate; polyacrylicacid; DoTAB; DoTAC; CTAB; CTAC; network; polyelectrolyte; complex salt; self assembly; phase behaviour; hysteresis; thermodynamic; core-shell; lysozyme; cytochrome c; microscopy; micromanipulator; elastomer; elastic; protein; surfactant; phase behaviour; sorting; PHARMACY; FARMACI; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : The thesis concerns polyelectrolyte gels in contact with oppositely charged proteins and surfactant micelles, and includes of four papers (I-IV). In paper I confocal Raman spectroscopy was introduced as a method to trace micelles and investigate the structure of gel-surfactant complexes, in phase separated gel spheres. READ MORE
