(RADA)4 Self-Assembling Peptide based Hydrogels: Design, Characterization and In-Vitro Biological Evaluation
DownloadFall 2016
Ionic self-assembling peptides have emerged as promising nano-biomaterials, with direct applications in the fields of bioengineering and applicative medicine. (RADA)4 is a self-assembling 16 residue containing peptide, with alternating hydrophobic and hydrophilic residues. This characteristic...

Control of Listeria monocytogenes and Heat-Resistant Escherichia coli on Vacuum-Packaged Beef
DownloadSpring 2012
Novel methods to control Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli on vacuum-packaged raw beef were investigated. Bacteriocin-negative Lactobacillus sakei FUA3058 and bacteriocin-positive Carnobacterium maltaromaticum UAL307 were tested as biopreservatives, alone or in combination with...

Development and Application of Protected Amino Acids for the Installation of Stable Post-translational Modifications Using Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis
DownloadFall 2022
This thesis describes the synthesis of non-canonical amino acid building blocks and their use in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) to explore peptidic drug analogues based on natural products. We replaced sensitive functionalities found in the structure of naturally produced peptides with...
