  1. 1. Drought resistance of Ectomycorrhizal fungi in the Suillus genus

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Author : Patricia Salén; [2024]
    Keywords : Ectomycorrhiza; drought; Suillus;

    Abstract : Rising instances of drought are causing more tree seedling fatalities post-nursery outplanting. In the face of climate change, fostering resilient forestry practices is imperative for preserving the health and functionality of our forests. READ MORE

  3. 2. Exploring alternative surfactants to replace PEG within lipid nanoparticles

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

    Author : Elina Edidovica; [2024]
    Keywords : Lipid nanoparticle; polyethelyne glycol PEG ; alpha-tomatine; N-hexadecyl beta d-maltoside HDM ; DOPC; DPPC; cholesterol; film hydration; stability study; DLS; Cryo-TEM; SAXS; pharmaceutical formulation; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Over the past decade an increasing amount of studies has demonstrated that PEGylation not only precipitates reductions in drug delivery efficiency but also triggers the immune system to produce antibodies, specifically anti-PEG antibodies. The objective of my thesis is to explore alternative surfactants that could viably replace PEG within lipid nanoparticles. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluation of different block-copolymer coatings of iron oxide nanoparticles by flash nanoprecipitation

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Felix Bogdan; [2023]
    Keywords : Nanopartiklar; organisk katalysator; ROP; block-sampolymerer PL G A; oljesyra IONPs; Nanoparticles; organic catalyst; ROP; block-copolymers PL G A; oleic acid IONPs;

    Abstract : Nanopartiklar (NP) erbjuder unika möjligheter för medicinska tillämpningar, inklusive kontrollerad frisättning av cancerläkemedel, användning som bildkontrast vid avbildningsprocedurer eller hypertermisk behandling av cancerceller. Flash nanoprecipitation (FNP) producerar NPs för att kombinera dessa tillämpningar i en snabb, billig och skalbar beläggningsprocess. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. Photovoltaic hosting capacity study for a residential area in Uppsala using a synthetic low voltage network

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

    Author : Ikenna Mbah; [2023]
    Keywords : Hosting capacity; performance index; low voltage network;

    Abstract : With the growing acceptance of photovoltaic (PV) systems globally including Sweden, an increasing number of PV systems has continually been installed all through Sweden. In this study, a selected residential area in Uppsala Sweden is considered as a possible site for PV system installation. READ MORE
