    Author : Jose Nixon; [2021]
    Keywords : bLG; Thioflavin-T Fluroscence; Fibrillation; bLG; Thioflavin-T fluroscens; fibrillering;

    Abstract : Bovint β-laktoglobulinprotein (bLG) är ett litet globulärt protein med 162 aminosyrarester, som vanligtvis finns i mjölkvassle. Under sura förhällanden dissocierar dessa dimera proteiner och bildar amyloidliknande fibriller. READ MORE

  2. 2. Silk's sweet spot: untangling the requirements for artificial silk extrusion using a biomimetic approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Author : Rodrigo Sanches Pires; [2019]
    Keywords : silk fibroin; injectability; extrusion; hydrogels; soft matter mechanics; biomimetic progressive acidification; silk self-assembly; thioflavin t; physical chemistry; biofabrication; spectroscopy; silk spinning; applied biochemistry; tillämpad biokemi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Up to this date, only a few silk hydrogels were reported to be injectable. Of these, none are truly biomimetic, and are instead comprised of blends with limited amounts of silk. Hence, no truly silk-based hydrogels exist as of today. READ MORE

  3. 3. Studies of Aβ aggregation, toxicity and cellular uptake

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Chiara Beretta; [2016]
    Keywords : Alzheimer’s disease; amyloid-beta; fluorescence; cellular uptake; labeling;

    Abstract : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia observed in the elderly. The symptoms of the disease are provoked by neuronal loss caused by neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques. The molecular processes that underlie AD’s pathology are at this day not well understood. READ MORE
