Characterisation of the mechanical properties, stability and biological potential of alginate/fucoidan hydrogels
Wæhre, Tore K. (Master thesis, 2022)Immunoisolerende terapier basert på å plassere hormonproduserende celler i beskyttende mikrokapsler har gjennom mange års forskning hatt stort potensiale som en funksjonell kur mot autoimmune sykdommer, slik som diabetes. ... -
Click chemistry for block polysaccharides with dihydrazide and dioxyamine linkers - A review
Solberg, Amalie; Vikøren Mo, Ingrid; Omtvedt, Line Aa.; Strand, Berit L.; Aachmann, Finn L.; Schatz, Christophe; Christensen, Bjørn E. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Engineered block polysaccharides is a relatively new class of biomacromolecules consisting of chemical assembly of separate block structures at the chain termini. In contrast to conventional, laterally substituted ... -
Combining Functionality of Polysaccharides for Drug Delivery Applications - A Study of CyD-Grafted Alginates
Omtvedt, Line Aanerud (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:342, Doctoral thesis, 2021-11)The biopolymer alginate has a vast potential for use within biomedical applications largely due to its ability to form ionically crosslinked hydrogels under gentle conditions. Furthermore, the versatile ways the polymer ... -
Explorations of monocyte responses to stimulation with fucoidan and alginates
Nestaas, Kristine Haug (Master thesis, 2024)Historisk sett har biomaterialer vært nyttige for medisinsk bruk, og utviklet seg fra enkle treproteser og gullimplantater for tenner mer sofistikerte moderne bruksområder, som leveringssystemer for legemidler. En spesielt ... -
Novel and Established Alginate Hydrogel Beads for Cell Therapy - Fibrotic and Inflammatory Responses with Insights from Proteomics
Coron, Abba Elizabeth (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2023:417, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Encapsulation of pancreatic islets in immunoprotective alginate hydrogel microspheres represents a promising alternative to current therapies for type 1 diabetes. By providing a semipermeable barrier, this strategy protects ... -
Rheological Characterization of Alginate- Based Hydrogels for Tissue Engineering Applications
Saravani, Abishana (Master thesis, 2023)Feltet vevsteknikk har som mål å erstatte eller reparere skadet vev eller organer, ved å kombienere materialer, celler og biologisk aktive molekyler for å danne funksjonelle vev. De siste årene har det vært en økende ...
