  1. 21. Characterization of Alcohol Modulation of a Pentameric Ligand-gated Ion Channel with Electrophysiology and Molecular Dynamics Simulations

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Sabina Gutheim; [2021]
    Keywords : Biophysics; Electrophysiology; MD simulations; Ligand-gated ion channels; GLIC; Ethanol modulation; Biofysik; Elektrofysiologi; MDsimuleringar; Pentameriska ligandstyrda jonkanaler; GLIC; Etanolmodulering;

    Abstract : Pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs) are membrane receptors that play a crucial role in every living organism. The pLGIC protein structure forms a pore through the membrane of a cell that can let specific ions pass through, upon activation by endogenous agonists. READ MORE

  3. 22. Technical Lignin Characterization of Acacia crassicarpa and Eucalyptus Hybrids

    University essay from KTH/Träkemi och massateknologi

    Author : Lutfi Difi Rosta; [2021]
    Keywords : Lignin; Acacia crassicarpa; Eucalyptus Hybrids; kraft cooking; kraft dissolving pulp cooking; Lignin; Acacia crassicarpa; Eucalyptus Hybrids; kraftkokning; kraftupplösning av massa;

    Abstract : Lignin är en av de vanligaste naturliga råvarorna på jorden och finns mestadels i trä. Nuförtiden är valoriseringen av lignin en av processutvecklingarna för teknologier inom massa- och pappersindustrin. Denna utveckling syftar till att öka värdet av lignin. READ MORE

  4. 23. Sustainable polymer-tribology : Developing novel multiscale thermoplastic composites using recycled high-performance fibers

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Maskinelement

    Author : Alejandra Marcela Ventura Cervellón; [2021]
    Keywords : Tribology; Carbon Fibers; Recycled Carbon Fibers; Circular Economy; Composite; UHMWPE; Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene;

    Abstract : The transition to a Circular Economy scheme that enables a more efficient usage of the resources is one of the most pressing needs in our society. From the industrial perspective this has been translated into new design philosophies and the search for more efficient systems. READ MORE

  5. 24. Characterization of Center-of-Mass and Rebinning in Positron Emission Tomography with Motion

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

    Author : Linder Hugo; [2021]
    Keywords : positron emission tomography; center of mass; motion correction;

    Abstract : Medical molecular imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) is sensitive to patient motion since PET scans last several minutes. Despite advancements in PET, such as improved photon-pair time-of-flight (TOF) difference resolution, motion deformations limit image resolution and quantification. READ MORE

  6. 25. Production and Evaluation of a Bombesin Analogue Conjugated to the Albumin-Binding Domain and DOTA for Prostate Cancer Radiotherapy

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Fredrika Landmark; [2021]
    Keywords : bombesin; prostate cancer; radiotherapy; human serum albumin; half-life extension; bombesin; prostatacancer; radioterapi; humant serumalbumin; halveringstidsförlängning;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide and claims hundreds of thousands of lives annually. Currently the most common treatment for prostate cancer is external beam radiotherapy, however, this treatment comes with serious side effects since it lacks selectivity for the cancer cells.
