  1. 6. Navigating Large-Scale Plasmid DNA Purification : A Recommendation of Current and Future Downstream Purification Solutions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Matilda Eriksson; Alva Wells; Maria Frey; Lisa Johansson; Gabriel Pettersson; David Sjöberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Plasmid purification; pDNA; large-scale chromatography;

    Abstract : Previous small-scale methods for plasmid DNA (pDNA) purification fail to meet theindustry’s demand for sufficient quantities. Greater volumes of bacterial lysates are a consequence of larger volumetric fermentations and traditional large-scale down-stream purification processes have some disadvantages and limitations.

  3. 7. Increased system sensitivity using fluorescent based immunoassays on the Gyrolab® platform

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaci

    Author : Gabriel Lisra; [2023]
    Keywords : Gyrolab; fluorescence; sensitivity; immunoassays;

    Abstract : Immunoassays have become an essential tool in several fields of bioanalytics with tremendous advances in sensitivity and formats seen through the last three decades. Many diseases are today diagnosed solely based on biomarker concentrations evaluated through immunoassays. READ MORE

  4. 8. Optical properties of water absorbing textiles for camouflage

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

    Author : Eveline Örtenberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Camouflage; SWIR; Water; Nanocellulose; CNF; Textiles;

    Abstract : Background matching, a form of camouflage, involves species developing patterns and coloration that closely resemble their environment. Humans have utilized camouflage and background matching, particularly in military applications, to reduce detectable characteristics, known as signatures. READ MORE

  5. 9. Comparison and optimization of extracellular vesicle (EV) capturing on functional thin films for their molecular profiling

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Prattakorn Metem; [2023]
    Keywords : extracellular vesicle; plasmonic nanohole array; atomic force microscopy; fluorescence analysis; extracellulära vesiklar; nanohålsuppsättning; atomkraftsmikroskopi; fluorescensanalys;

    Abstract : Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer encapsulated nanoparticles which have emerged as an excellent source of biomarkers for multiple diseases, including cancer. However, they are highly heterogeneous in their molecular compositions which remains a major challenge hindering the utilization of their biomarker potential. READ MORE

  6. 10. Design, synthesis, and evaluation of 1-phenylethanol and C2 threitol derivatives as non-pyranose galactose-mimicking inhibitors of Galectin-3

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Qrystal Cruz Giron; [2023]
    Keywords : Galectin-3; Galectin-3 inhibitor; 1-phenylethanol; C2 threitol derivative; galactose-mimicking inhibitor; organic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Galectins are cytosolic protein family involved in several biological functions such as cell differentiation, cell migration and apoptosis amongst many others. Their presence is also substantial in diseases including acute inflammation, fibrosis, allergies, and cancer. READ MORE
