Pancreatic islet transplantation is a promising advanced therapy that has been used to treat patients suffering from diabetes type 1. Traditionally, pancreatic islets are infused via the portal vein, which is subsequently intended to engraft in the liver. Severe immunosuppressive treatments are necessary, however, to prevent rejection of the transplanted islets. Novel approaches therefore have focused on encapsulation of the islets in biomaterial implants which can protect the islets and offer an organ-like environment. Vascularization of the device’s surface is a prerequisite for the survival and proper func- tioning of transplanted pancreatic islets. We are pursuing a prevascularization s…
Lopputuotteen laadunvalvonnan parantaminen tietojärjestelmien avulla
2009
Tekijä: Antti Hyvönen Yhteystiedot: anerhyvo@jyu.fi Työn nimi: Lopputuotteen laadunvalvonnan parantaminen tietojärjestelmien avulla Title in English: Enhancing quality management through IT Työ: Tietojärjestelmätiede kandidaatintutkielma Sivumäärä: 34 Tiivistelmä: Yritysten valmistamilla tuotteilla on oma elinkaarensa. Tällaisille tuotteille laadunvalvonta on keskeistä kaikissa tuotteen elinkaaren vaiheissa. Laatua parannettaessa informaatio näyttelee tärkeää roolia tässä prosessissa. Tälläista tietoa voidaan kerätä tuotannon eri vaiheista, aina asiakkaalta tulevaan palautteeseen saakka. Itse tiedon keräyksessä ja analysoinnissa tietotekniikka voi olla suureksi eduksi. Tällä tutkielmalla on…
Fast blue B functionalized silica-polymer composite to evaluate 3,5-dihy-droxyhydrocinnamic acid as biomarker of gluten intake
2021
Celiac disease is an immune-mediated systemic disorder elicited by gluten and related prolamines in genetically susceptible individuals. The current treatment is a strict and lifelong gluten-free diet. However, compliance with the gluten-free diet is not always adequate and many food products contain low concentrations of gluten. The determination of dietary transgressions is a challenge for patients, physicians and dietitians. Alkylresorcinols (AR) have been proposed as sensitive and specific biomarkers of gluten consumption. In this work silica-polymer composites doped with fast blue B reagent (FB) have been used to estimate alkylresorcinols in biological samples. The proposed colorimetri…
Research of the physical-chemical properties of adhesive radiation-modified thermosetting materials based on polyolefins and their composites
1999
The present paper surveys the investigation results of the adhesive behavior with steel of different polyethylenes (LDPE, HDPE) irradiated with γ-radiation in vacuum, oxygen, and air, using rheological, optical, thermomechanical and other methods. To study the adhesive contact, the technological parameters applicable to thermosetting polymer material were taken into consideration. The results show the suitable methods in order to obtain thermosetting polymer materials with improved adhesive and thermomechanical properties.
Hiilinanoputkihemiselluloosan virtaus mikrokanavan leveyden funktiona
2017
Mikrofluidistiikka ja mikroelektroniset systeemit löytävät tiensä entistä useammin arkipäiväiseen elämään ja tutkimukseen. Vaikkakin hiilinanoputket ovat yksi tutkituimmista materiaaleista, niin lähestyimme asiaa käyttämällä hemiselluloosalla vesiliukoistettuja hiilinanoputkia. Tarkoituksena on tutkia tämän hiilinanoputki-hermiselluloosaliuoksen kuljetusta mikrofluidististen kanavien läpi. Lähestymistapamme on käyttää PDMS mikrokanavia, joita valmistimme eri halkaisijoilla. Muotit mikrokanavien valmistusta varten saimme Aalto yliopistosta. Päämäärää varten on valmistettava PDMS kanavia, suoritettava hydrofiilisyyskasittelyjä ja sonikaattorilla puhdistavia käsittelyjä. Parhaan tuloksen aikaa…
Systematic Study of a Library of PDMAEMA-Based, Superparamagnetic Nano-Stars for the Transfection of CHO-K1 Cells.
2017
The introduction of the DNA into mammalian cells remains a challenge in gene delivery, particularly in vivo. Viral vectors are unmatched in their efficiency for gene delivery, but may trigger immune responses and cause severe side-reactions. Non-viral vectors are much less efficient. Recently, our group has suggested that a star-shaped structure improves and even transforms the gene delivery capability of synthetic polycations. In this contribution, this effect was systematically studied using a library of highly homogeneous, paramagnetic nano-star polycations with varied arm lengths and grafting densities. Gene delivery was conducted in CHO-K1 cells, using a plasmid encoding a green fluore…
Patterning of supported gold monolayers via chemical lift-off lithography
2017
The supported monolayer of Au that accompanies alkanethiolate molecules removed by polymer stamps during chemical lift-off lithography is a scarcely studied hybrid material. We show that these Au–alkanethiolate layers on poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) are transparent, functional, hybrid interfaces that can be patterned over nanometer, micrometer, and millimeter length scales. Unlike other ultrathin Au films and nanoparticles, lifted-off Au–alkanethiolate thin films lack a measurable optical signature. We therefore devised fabrication, characterization, and simulation strategies by which to interrogate the nanoscale structure, chemical functionality, stoichiometry, and spectral signature of t…
Virus influenzali H1N1pdm e riassortanti isolati dal suino
2011
Sin dai primi giorni della circolazione del virus pandemico H1N1-2009 nella popolazione, è stata segnalata la trasmissione del virus dall’uomo a specie animali diverse (suino, tacchino, cane, gatto). La trasmissione di virus influenzali dall’uomo agli animali non rappresenta solo un problema limitato al settore zootecnico, ma un problema di sanità pubblica per il ruolo di “serbatoio” dei virus influenzali rappresentato da tali specie. Il suino non ha sinora dimostrato un ruolo epidemiologico importante nella diffusione di (H1N1)pdm all’uomo; tuttavia ciò non esclude, che a seguito dell’evoluzione virale, o di fenomeni di riassortimento, da tale specie emergano e si trasmettano all’uomo viru…
