  1. 1. Development of a PNA-drug conjugate for pretargeted delivery of cytotoxic drugs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Theranostics

    Author : Astrid Haraldsson; [2023]
    Keywords : PNA; pretargeting; cancer therapy; cytotoxic payload;

    Abstract : One of the major challenges in cancer treatment is delivering high enough doses of active substance specifically to cancer cells without accumulation in healthy organs. Pretargeting has emerged as a potential solution, where the delivery of a cancer recognizing (primary) agent and a cancer killing (secondary) agent are separated. READ MORE

  3. 2. Characterization of potato protein and its calcium binding capacity

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi; Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Author : Signe König; Erika Thomson; [2023]
    Keywords : Patatin; Calcium; Food supplement; Calcium Assay; Alcalase; potato protein; Applied biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Calcium is essential for the human body as it has functions in the nervous system, bones and formation of teeth. Deficiency in this important nutrient can be detrimental to health and cause life-long issues. Calcium can be found in various foods, like dairy products, but certain plant-based alternatives to milk needs to be fortified with calcium. READ MORE

  4. 3. Method evaluation for probing DNA sorption to clay minerals : Evaluation of fluorescent and spectroscopic quantification of DNA as well as DNA interactions of Kaolinite and Montmorillonite

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Oskar Wangdell; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The association of DNA/RNA to mineral surfaces is an emerging field with widespread applications from biotechnological solutions to paleogenetics. Evaluating available methods to quantify adsorption will be essential to further investigate how to control and predict loading of DNA onto minerals. READ MORE

  5. 4. Cobalt and nickel concentrations in the Uppsala clay deposits : solubility and risk assessment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Ali Reza Sadeghi; [2020]
    Keywords : heavy metals; soil contanimation; geochemically active fraction; leaching test; guideline value; site-specific guideline value;

    Abstract : Heavy metals create a contamination problem in soils. Examples of heavy metals are Ni, Co, and Cu. Soil environment and minerals existing in the soil such as Fe and Mn oxides affect the presence of these heavy metals. In this thesis, the cobalt and nickel concentrations of selected soil samples from different locations in Uppsala were determined. READ MORE

  6. 5. Factors controlling the sorption of Cs, Ni and U in soil : A statistical analysis with experimental sorption data of caesium, nickel and uranium in soils from the Laxemar area

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Emilia Johansson; [2020]
    Keywords : correlation analysis; Kd values; partition coefficient; Pearson correlation; radionuclide; soil; sorption;

    Abstract : In the fall of 2006, soils from three small valleys in the Laxemar/Oskarshamn area were sampled. A total of eight composite samples were characterized for a number of soil parameters that are important for geochemical sorption and were later also used in batch sorption experiments. READ MORE
