  1. 1. Techniques to manipulate the environment around and inside single cells

    Author : Helen Bridle; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; digitonin; solution exchange; microfluidics; oscillations; temperature control; ion channels; valves;

    Abstract : Several methods for extending the functionality of a commercially available microfluidic system have been developed to allow for the manipulation of the extracellular and intracellular environments. The microfluidic system generates a chemically patterned laminar flow in an open volume. READ MORE

  2. 2. Exploitation of interactions with the neonatal Fc receptor to manipulate biological half-lives for therapeutic applications

    Author : Shengze Yu; Torbjörn Gräslund; Mats Ohlin; KTH; []
    Keywords : Glioblastoma Multiforme GBM ; Prolacin Prl ; Prolacin receptor PrlR ; Prolactin antagonist PrlRA ; Albumin binding domain ABD ; serum albumin SA ; half-life extension; FcRn; Affibody; human growth hormone hGH ; immunoglobulin G IgG ; blocking; autoimmune disease; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Protein engineering provides powerful tools to create useful proteins with desired properties. In this thesis, rational design principles have been used for development of fusion proteins that can interact with the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) for potential medical applications. FcRn is widely expressed in the human body.

  3. 3. Designer magnetoplasmonics for adaptive nano-optics

    Author : Irina Zubritskaya; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photonics; magnetoplasmonics; magneto-optics; magneto-optical Kerr effect MOKE ; plasmon ruler; nickel; cobalt; gold; silicon; localized surface plasmon resonance; dimer; trimer; chiroptics; chiral transmission; 2D nanoantennas; dynamic tuning; metal-dielectric; 3D nanoantennas; metasurface; magnetic modulation; perpendicular magnetic anisotropy.;

    Abstract : Materials that provide real-time control of the fundamental properties of light at visible and near-infrared frequencies enable the essential components for future optical devices. Metal nanostructures that couple electromagnetic (EM) radiation on a sub-wavelength length scale to free electrons, forming propagating or localized surface plasmons, provide many exciting functionalities due to their ability to manipulate light via the local EM field shaping and enhancement.

  4. 4. Nanospintronics with Molecular Magnets - Tunneling and Spin-Electric Coupling

    Author : Javier Francisco Nossa Márquez; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : Molecular magnets; spin exchange; spin-orbit interaction; magnetic anisotropy; spin frustration; spin chirality; spin-electric control; quantum transport; Coulomb blockade; density functional theory; quantum master equation.;

    Abstract : This dissertation investigates theoretically electric control of the magnetic properties of molecular magnets. Two classes of magnetic molecules are considered. The first class consists of molecules that are spin frustrated. READ MORE

  5. 5. Engineering data exchange for multidisciplinary analysis using embedding technique

    Author : Mattias Nyström; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Datorstödd maskinkonstruktion; Computer Aided Design;

    Abstract : The aim of this work is to improve the sharing of Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Engineering data between different applications by investigating different enabling technologies and developing a integrated design system that make an automated and seamless information exchange for multidisciplinary analysis possible. An embedded approach has been used, which makes the data public with objects that are discrete software components that contain data and are able to manipulate it. READ MORE
