  1. 1. Magnetic bead-based isolation of biological therapeutic modalities

    Author : Nils A. Brechmann; Véronique Chotteau; Nigel Titchener-Hooker; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Magnetic bead separation; Magnetic beads; Protein A; Protein G; Negative cell isolation; Monoclonal antibody; induced pluripotent stem cells; human mesenchymal stem cells; Allogenic cell therapy; Biomanufacturing; cell clarification; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Biopharmaceutical modalities, such as monoclonal antibodies or the less established cell therapies, are nowadays very important for the treatment of severe or incurable diseases. The manufacturing of such modalities is complex and costly, including the downstream processing, which is highly essential to ensure the safety and quality of the product. READ MORE

  2. 2. Molecular Diagnostics Using Volume-Amplified Magnetic Nanobeads : Towards the Development of a Novel Biosensor System

    Abstract : This thesis describes a new approach to biomolecular analysis, called the volume-amplified magnetic nanobead detection assay (VAM-DNA). It is a sensitive, specific magnetic bioassay that offers a potential platform for the development of low-cost, easy-to-use diagnostic devices. READ MORE

  4. 4. Controlled manipulation of microparticles utilizing magnetic and dielectrophoretic forces

    Author : LarsErik Johansson; Sven Oscarsson; Leif Nyholm; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : Dielectrophoresis; Magnetic beads; MEMS; Micro-particles; Micro-scale manipulation; Micro-system; Biotechnology Chemical Engineering; bioteknik kemiteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents some experimental work in the area of manipulation of microparticles. Manipulation of both magnetic and non magnetic beads as well as microorganisms are addressed. The work on magnetic bead manipulation is focused on controlled transport and release, on a micrometer level, of proteins bound to the bead surface. READ MORE

  5. 5. Biomolecular Recognition Based on Field Induced Magnetic Bead Dynamics

    Author : Rebecca Stjernberg Bejhed; Peter Svedlindh; Klas Gunnarsson; Maria Strömme; Teresa Zardán Gómez de la Torre; Christer Johansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Magnetic biosensor; magnetic nanoparticle; DNA detection; Teknisk fysik; Engineering Science;

    Abstract : In this thesis, three different read-out techniques for biomolecular recognition have been studied. All three techniques rely on the change in dynamic behaviour of probe functionalised magnetic beads after binding to a biomolecular target complementary to the probe. READ MORE
