  1. 1. Polyelectrolytes and Polycomplexes in Biotechnology

    Author : Maria Dainiak; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; expanded bed adsorption.; affinity precipitation; Fab fragments; monoclonal antibodies; glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; misfolded protein; chaperone; poly N-ethyl-4-vinylpyridinium bromide ; poly methacrylic acid ; poly acrylic acid ; Key words: polyelectrolyte; polyelectrolyte complexes; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi;

    Abstract : Polyelectrolytes and polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) are characterized by many useful properties that endow them with high potential in different areas of biotechnology. This thesis describes the development and analyses of some new systems and methods utilizing poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA), poly (N-ethyl-4-vinylpyridinium bromide) (PEVP) and PMA-PEVP complexes.

  2. 2. Phase Behavior and Solution Properties of Aqueous Polyion-Surfactant Ion Systems

    Author : John Janiak; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymer-surfactant association; complex salt; nonionic surfactant; poly acrylic acid ; poly methacrylic acid ; copolymer; polymeric counterion; decyl betainate; phase behavior; solubilization; mixed micelle; hydrolysis; release; liquid crystal; nanoparticles; thermosresponsive; C12E8; C12E5;

    Abstract : Polyelectrolytes and oppositely charged surfactants interact through attractive electrostatic forces, which in many cases lead to phase separation already at low total concentrations. During the past 10-15 years investigations of these systems have been simplified through the use of complex salts that consist of surfactants with polymeric counterions in a 1:1 charge stoichiometry (no excess simple counterions present).

  3. 3. Polymer Bound Water-Soluble Metal Phosphine Complexes-Preparation, Characterisation and Catalytic Application

    Author : Torsten Malmström; Kemiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; enantioselective; SAP; hydrogenation; hydroformylation; catalysis; biphasic; rhodium; poly-ethylene imine; poly-acrylic acid; polymers; water-soluble; phosphines; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Four new water-soluble phosphines have been prepared by utilising water-soluble polymers as charge carrying units. Coupling of methyl-4-(diphenylphosphino)-benzyl-amine or 4-diphenylphosphino benzaldehyde to poly-acrylic acid and poly-ethylene imine, respectively, afford the ligands PAA-PNH and PEI-PNH.

  4. 4. Water-swelling tablets based on hydrophobically modified poly(acrylic acid) - Effects of amphiphiles on swelling and drug release

    Author : Patrik Knöös; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Drug deliver; Controlled release; Hydrophobically modified polymers; Surfactant-polymer interactions; Poorly soluble drug;

    Abstract : An important issue within the pharmaceutical world today is the increasing number of poorly soluble drugs. These often show a low bioavailability and a susceptibility to varying conditions in the intestine. READ MORE

  5. 5. Signal Enhancement by Dynamic Polymers in Quartz Crystal Microbalance Applications

    Author : Gunnar Dunér; Olof Ramström; Ian Nicholls; Andra Dedinaite; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Signal enhancement; QCM; polyelectrolytes; hydrogel; iniferter; photopolymerization; dynamic polymers; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract :  This licentiate thesis presents studies of signal enhancement by dynamic polymers in quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) applications. The aim of the study has been to determine the potential for the use of polymers on QCM sensors for signal enhancement in molecular interaction studies. READ MORE
