  1. 1. Synthesis of azide- and alkyne-terminated alkane thiols and evaluation of their application in Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition ("click") reactions on gold surfaces

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Yohei Okabayashi; [2009]
    Keywords : Self-Assembled monolayers; Click Chemistry; Infrared Reflection-Absorption Spectroscopy; Surface Plasmon Resonance;

    Abstract : Immobilization of different bio- and organic molecules on solid supports is fundamental within many areas of science. Sometimes, it is desirable to obtain a directed orientation of the molecule in the immobilized state. READ MORE

  3. 2. A novel biotinylated surface designed for QCM-D applications

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Erik Nilebäck; [2009]

    Abstract :   Control of protein immobilization at sensor surfaces is of great interest within various scientific fields, since it enables studies of specific biomolecular interactions. To achieve this, one must be able to immobilize proteins with retained native structure, while minimizing non-specific protein binding. READ MORE

  4. 3. SPR Sensor Surfaces based on Self-Assembled Monolayers

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Anna Bergström; [2009]
    Keywords : Surface Plasmon Resonance; Biacore; Self-Assembled Monolayers; Dithiol; Sensor surface; Null Ellipsometry; Contact Angle Goniometry; Infrared Reflection Absorption Spectroscopy;

    Abstract : The study and understanding of molecular interactions is fundamentally important in today's field of life sciences and there is a demand for well designed surfaces for biosensor applications. The biosensor has to be able to detect specific molecular interactions, while non-specific binding of other substances to the sensor surface should be kept to a minimum. READ MORE
