Surface Characteristics Control the Attachment and Functionality of (Chimeric) Avidin
2018
The physical adsorption (physisorption) of proteins to surfaces is an important but incompletely understood factor in many biological processes and is of increasing significance in bionanotechnology as well. Avidin is an important protein because of strong avidin–biotin binding, which has been exploited in numerous applications. We have undertaken thorough experimentation on the physisorption of avidin, to chemically different flat surfaces of Si and graphite and also to the curved version of the latter, on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) of different diameters. The difference in the behavior of avidin on Si versus graphite is drastic; on Si, avidin deposits as single globular tetramer…
Versailles project on advanced materials and standards (VAMAS) interlaboratory study on measuring the number concentration of colloidal gold nanopart…

The advancement of analytical methods for nanoparticle measurements is critical both for the growing industrial exploitation of engineered nanoparticles and for developing robust strategies to understand and control the concentration of nanomaterials in humans and the environment. For high value nanoparticles, the measurement of nanoparticle number concentration in a liquid directly impacts the ability to assess the scale and reproducibility of the production process, it allows optimisation of efficiency and supports regulatory compliance. This measurement is also useful to monitor and control the intentional or accidental release of engineered nanoparticles into the environment at the produc…
Paperitehtaan jätevesien käsittely termofiilisellä aktiiviliete- ja biofilmiprosessilla
2005
Monilla teollisuudenaloilla muodostuu kuumia jätevesiä, jotka jäähdytetään biologista kä- sittelyä varten. Käsittely totuttua korkeammassa lämpötilassa voi tuoda taloudellisia sekä prosessin toimintaan liittyviä etuja. Kuitenkin useimpien termofiilisestä jätevedenkäsittelystä saatujen kokemusten mukaan lietteen erotus on vaikeampaa kuin tavanomaisessa jäteveden käsittelyssä. Myös joidenkin liukoisten aineiden poisto voi monimutkaistua. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoite oli verrata termofiilisen (55 °C) aktiiviliete- ja biofilmiprosessien toimintaa pilot-mittakaavassa. Toimintaa verrattiin myös täyden mittakaavan mesofiiliseen (35 °C) aktiivilieteprosessiin, mutta painotus on termofiilisten prosessi…
Studies of two-dimensional and three-dimensional phononic crystal structures
2016
This thesis focuses on studying phononic crystal structures. More specifically, it is aimed at fabrication and measurement of thermal properties of two-dimensional (2D) periodic microstructures and three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures. There is great interest in understanding, manipulating and considering application perspective of minimizing of thermal transport in periodic structures. Periodic structures have been studied more on their optical properties, but this thesis places emphasis on their application of manipulating heat. A process of fabricating two-dimensional hole array phononic (2D PnC) structures is described here. It consists of membrane preparation, superconductor-insulator…
