  1. 1. Understanding the effects of TCP-25 and EDTA interaction : A study of the biophysical aspects of a naturally derived peptide formulation with EDTA for topical application

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Ebba Kant; [2023]
    Keywords : chronic wounds; EDTA; biophysical aspects; formulation; pharmaceutical technology; Thrombin derived C-terminal peptide; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Chronic wounds are an emerging healthcare issue and current methods of healing chronic wounds address bacteria but are ineffective against resistant bacteria and the biofilm formation commonly observed in these wounds. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from the endogenous wound healing system have been shown to combat bacterial infections, exhibit immunomodulatory effects, as well as improving wound healing.

  3. 2. Composite Cell Block As Control For Immunocytochemical Stains On Cytology Prepared Samples

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Author : Mariia Anastasiia Spireva; [2023]
    Keywords : ICC; formalin; PreservCyt®; agar; plasma-thrombin;

    Abstract : Cytopathology plays a significant role in cancer diagnostics. One of the ancillary methods used for prognostication is immunocytochemistry (ICC). Formalin pre-fixed tissue blocks are often used as validated immunohistochemical controls for cytology samples. READ MORE

  4. 3. Study of Thrombin-Derived C-Terminal Peptide with aggregation propensity

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Klaudia Detkiewicz; [2022]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Ett nytt lovande alternativ för antibiotika Hudsår är alltid med risk för bakteriell angrepp. När en infektion uppstår står immunförsvaret inför en stor utmaning, då inte sällan motståndaren övervinner flera strider. En av kroppens strategier för kampen med patogener är inflammation. READ MORE

  5. 4. Hyaluronic Acid Hydrogel as a Scaffold for Cells’ Encapsulation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Susanna Wärmegård; [2022]
    Keywords : hyaluronic acid; hydrogel; 3D cell culture;

    Abstract : Hydrogels are high water-content polymers that mimic the extracellular matrix of cells. The polymers can have many sources and be of natural origin from the extracellular matrix (ECM) of cells or be synthetically derived. READ MORE

  6. 5. Blood interactions with bioactive peptidefunctionalized nanocellulose : An evaluation of the activation of the coagulation and complement system

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Vanisha Bansal; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A current trend utilizing the biomedical approach in the field of wound care is focused on the increased potential to develop wound healing materials designed to address specific types of wounds or underlying pathologies to achieve improved healing. The work presented in this thesis evaluates the blood response to wood-derived nanocellulose functionalized with a peptide, with the ultimate aim of characterizing the material as a potential wound dressing for chronic wound care.
