This thesis studies the phenolic compounds of Geranium sylvaticum L. It focuses especially on geraniin and related ellagitannins. The literature review covers the phytochemistry of Geranium species, the biological activity ...

Fluorine-18 is a positron emitting radioisotope. It has a half-life of 109.8 min, a simple decay profile and low positron energy as a result of which properties fluorine-18 is an excellent candidate for use in the production ...

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. ...

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in utilizing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy metabolomics to understand different biochemical mechanisms of living organisms. Metabolomic profiling can ...

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) ...

In the fight against climate change, effective energy storage applications are required to efficiently store the energy of renewable sources. Supercapacitors are one of the energy storage applications under vigorous research ...

Upconversion luminescence where visible light can be obtained through low energy near-infrared radiation is an interesting research topic especially within the scope of biomedical applications using optical detection. The ...

The use of radioisotopes as a means to non-invasively look into living subjects influenced both diagnostic and therapeutic medicine in the past century. Nowadays positron emission tomography (PET), employing short-lived ...

Synthetic hackmanite is a material that resembles the natural mineral, hackmanite. The structure of hackmanite, Na8Al6Si6O24(Cl,S)2, together with its simple preparation with solid state synthesis enables the doping of ...

This project focuses on cationic isothiouronium polythiophenes (CITs), a particular type of conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs). In general, CPEs combine a pi-conjugated polymer backbone with pendant ionic groups, which ...
