Upconverting luminescent materials for solar energy conversion
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-12-11)
As attractive energy converters, solar cells are considered to play a vital role in covering the constantly increasing energy demands in the future. Despite the strong success in the field, a variety of solar cells including ...
Novel 19F NMR sensors for the characterization of higher-order secondary structures of DNA and RNA
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-06-14)
Both DNA and RNA can fold into a variety of non-canonical structures. Non-canonical structures, such as triplexes and G-quadruplexes, are an active research area due to their biological significance and therapeutic potential. ...
Distribution of foliar plant polyphenols across the plant phylogeny
(Turun yliopisto, 2025-06-26)
In this multidisciplinary thesis, thousands of plant species were screened to study their major foliar polyphenol groups and their distribution across the plant kingdom. While plants produce thousands of polyphenol compounds ...
Interactions between tannins and anthelmintics – molecular aspects and mechanisms
(Turun yliopisto, 2025-10-23)
Plant tannins have been widely studied for their antiparasitic properties. They also possess other beneficial effects for animal health and environment, such as controlling ruminant bloating and reducing the emission of ...
Distribution and oxidative activities of phenolic compounds in the plant kingdom
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-12-08)
Plant phenolics have been studied for decades because of their role as chemodefensive compounds against herbivores and pathogens, and their assumed health benefits to humans. One of their proposed modes of actions is ...
Organomercury oligonucleotides as artificial ribonucleases
(Turun yliopisto, 2024-05-10)
Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) leverage the natural catalytic activity of RNases H to target specific RNA sequences for degradation. However, the challenge lies in incorporating chemical modifications into ASOs to enhance ...
Tuning Photochromic Sodalites across the Visible Spectrum
(Turun yliopisto, 2023-06-16)
Photochromic sodalite, Na8(AlSiO4)6(Cl,S)2, has been a topic of research for almost 100 years, though only recently has a deep understanding of its remarkably fatigueresistant colour change been obtained. Aside from the ...
The peptide-break technology : a novel approach for protein post-translational modification assays in drug discovery
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-03-15)
The work presented in this thesis describes the development of a universal platform for the biochemical detection of protein post-translational modifications (PTM) using the quenching resonance energy transfer (QRET) ...
Phenolics of the Inner Bark of Silver Birch: Characterization and Intraspecific Variation
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 477, 2013-12-13)
This thesis describes work related to the in-depth characterization of the phenolic compounds of silver birch (Betula pendula) inner bark. Phenolic compounds are the most ubiquitous class of plant secondary compounds. The ...
Synthesis of 18F-labelled radiopharmaceuticals for CNS imaging : From radiosynthesis development to GMP production
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-03-19)
Positron emission tomography (PET) is an imaging technique that can be used to follow various biological processes, such as receptor function, in a living body. PET utilisesradiopharmaceuticals, tracers containing short-lived ...
