  1. 21. Characterization of Iron Oxide Nanoparticle-Based Contrast Agent in Photoacoustic Imaging and Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Jimmy Zheng; [2021]
    Keywords : Photoacoustic imaging; magnetic resonance imaging; iron oxide nanoparticle; multimodal contrast agent;

    Abstract : Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most difficult type of cancer to treat, due to late diagnosis which is a result of vague symptoms and lack of biomarkers, as well as refractory behavior toward current treatment protocols. Imaging of the disease progression therefore plays a crucial role in identifying potentially curable PDAC patients at an early stage. READ MORE

  3. 22. The role of exosomes in sarcoidosis

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Elli Mouchtaridi; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sarcoidosis is a systemic inflammatory disease mostly affecting the lungs, marked by the presence of granulomas and the accumulation of interferon gamma (IFNγ)-producing T cells in the affected organs. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membranous vesicles with a size range of 50 nm to 5000 nm, with exosomes ranging from 50 to 150 nm. READ MORE

  5. 24. Modelling Local pH Values and Ion Distributions near Gold Nanoparticles

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Lisa Tete; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Corrosion is the sum of processes by which an element, commonly a metal, wears away, deteriorates [1]–[3]. One of these processes uses the principle of electrochemistry as a basis, being the transfer of electrons between one chemical reaction and the element that undergoes corrosion [4], [5]. READ MORE

  6. 25. Colloidal self-assembly of anisotropic gold nanoparticles

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Samuel Emilsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Self-assembly; Gold nanoparticle; Anisotropic; Nanobipyramid; Surface plasmon resonance; Självsammansättningar; Guldnanopartiklar; Anisotrop; Nanobipyramider; Ytplasmonresonans;

    Abstract : The colloidal self-assembly of plasmonic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is of interest to utilize the plasmonic coupling effects that arise between nanoparticles. The enhanced properties of anisotropic AuNPs make them particularly attractive in self-assemblies. READ MORE
