Mechanical properties of composite hydrogels of alginate and cellulose nanofibrils

Aarstad, Olav Andreas; Heggset, Ellinor Bævre; Pedersen, Ina S.; Bjørnøy, Sindre Hove; Syverud, Kristin; Strand, Berit Løkensgard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)

Alginate and cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) are attractive materials for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. CNF gels are generally weaker and more brittle than alginate gels, while alginate gels are elastic and ...
Polymer sequencing by molecular machines: a framework for predicting the resolving power of a sliding contact force spectroscopy sequencing method

Dunlop, Alex; Bowman, Kate; Aarstad, Olav Andreas; Skjåk-Bræk, Gudmund; Stokke, Bjørn Torger; Round, Andrew N (Journal article, 2017)

We evaluate an AFM-based single molecule force spectroscopy method for mapping sequences in otherwise difficult to sequence heteropolymers, including glycosylated proteins and glycans. The sliding contact force spectroscopy ...
