1. Exploring alternative surfactants to replace PEG within lipid nanoparticles
University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)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

2. Optimising microfluidic preparation of lipid sponge phase nanoparticles for biomolecule encapsulation
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Abstract : Drug delivery with lipid nanoparticles, especially sponge phase lipid nanoparticles (LNP), has been well studied because of its ability for drug encapsulation and transferring the drug through the cell membrane. The sponge phase LNP formulation could be affected by the molecular structure of the lipid, the temperature, pH, dilution, the buffer, and the addition of a stabiliser. READ MORE

3. EFFECT OF ENDOCRINE DISRUPTING MIXTURES AND CHEMICALS ON THE OXYGEN CONSUMPTION RATE OF ZEBRAFISH LARVAE
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : Chemicals affecting the endocrine system, so called endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDC’s), have been steadily increasing in the environment over the last 40 years. EDCs are harmful chemicals since they can act through multiple endocrine pathways, contain a wide spectrum of health effects that can be very persistent and can cause effects already at a low doses.

4. Effects of plant polar lipids on postprandial glycemic regulation in healthy humans
University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)Abstract : In light of diabetes becoming a global discussion topic, some steps ought to be taken to help reduce the number of individuals suffering from the disease. Keeping good glycemic control through a healthy diet helps prevent diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Plant lipids are increasingly being studied for their postprandial effects on humans. READ MORE

5. Toxicological analysis of Pyraclostrobin and Cyprodinilon Zebrafish larvae
University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknikAbstract : Cyprodinil and pyraclostrobin are widely used pesticides to protect many plants from attack of microorganisms and fungal diseases. Although cyprodinil and pyraclostrobin exist in the aquatic environment at low concentration, their leftovers in the ecosystems lead to oxidative damage and interfere development in aquatic animals at environmental-relevant concentration.
