Reverse micelles in supercritical carbon dioxide for pharmacological applications: a spectroscopic characterization
(2004)
The aim of this research is to characterize microemulsions in supercritical (sc) CO2 using two spectroscopic techniques (UV-Vis and FT-IR) and apply the microemulsion approach to extract impurities from a pharmacological ...
Immobilization of myoglobin from horse skeletal muscle (Mb) and hemoglobin (Hb1) from Lucina pectinata in hydrophilic polymer networks for H2S biosensor application
(2005)
Hemeproteins are known for their spectroscopic properties which change during
the binding of specific ligands. This project envisioned the immobilization of myoglobin
from horse skeletal muscle (Mb) and hemoglobin I from ...
Kinetic, intracellular ATP growth and maintenance studies, and modeling of metabolically engineered Zymomonas mobilis fermenting glucose and xylose mixtures
(2006)
Intracellular adenosine-5’-triphosphate (ATP) levels were measured in a metabolically engineered Zymomonas mobilis strain 8b over the course of batch fermentations of glucose and xylose mixtures. Recombinant Z. mobilis, a ...
Autothermal reforming (ATR) for fuel cells in automotive applications
(2004)
Autothermal reforming of liquid fuels had been demonstrated to be feasible for use in fuel cell vehicles. One of the main problems with reforming systems is that the concentration product of carbon monoxide has to be less ...
Characterization of proton exchange membrane fuel cell and PEM electrolyzer using non-steady electrochemical techniques.
(2004)
Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) and PEM Electrolyzer were
characterized using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). Faradaic resistance
(RΩ), kinetic and mass transfer parameters such as charge ...
Operational parameters optimization of cross-flow ceramic membrane ultrafiltration for water depyrogenation
(2004)
Water ultrafiltration has been suggested as an alternative for the removal of
lypopolysaccharides in the production of Water for Injection and, Pyrogen Reduced
Water. Ultrafiltration of water using an annular ceramic ...
Stable colloidal dispersions of magnetic nanoparticles in aqueous media and polymer melts
(2009)
The work presented as part of this thesis describes a process to obtain two types of conventionally used magnetic nanoparticles, magnetite and cobalt ferrite, with a narrow size distribution that can be suspended in aqueous ...
Synthesis of multifunctional magnetic nanoparticles for biomedical applications
(2009)
Magnetite nanoparticles are attractive for biomedical applications such as magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH), a novel cancer treatment, due to their ability to induce heating through energy dissipation in an oscillating ...
Towards the design of highly selective molecularly imprinted hydrogels for biosensor applications
(2009)
Robust molecular recognition is essential to enhance the accuracy of diagnostic devices aiming for a better efficacy in the clinical treatment of patients. The molecular imprinting technique has gained attention to generate ...
Maxwell-Stefan modeling of mass transfer effects in reactive chromatography
(2009)
A rigorous dynamic theoretical model was developed and implemented for simultaneous diffusion, reaction, and adsorption inside porous solids for the fixed bed chromatographic reactor (FBCR), true moving bed chromatographic ...
