Preparation of liposomes and Encapsulation of Bioactives Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide
DownloadSpring 2017
Liposomes are versatile vesicles of a phospholipid bilayer, which offer great protection for active compounds. Encapsulated compounds can be protected from the unfavorable external conditions so that their chemical stability and bioavailability can be greatly enhanced. The supercritical carbon...

Chicken feathers are byproduct of poultry industries and except some minor low end application, they are generally dumped into landfills. An effort has been made to utilize this by-product by transforming them into nano-reinforced bioplastics which is not only a solution to feather waste disposal...

Sequential and controlled release of small molecules from poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel-based reservoir devices
Download2016
Serpe, Michael J., Wong, Ka Y., Ahiabu, Andrews, Gao, Yongfeng
Systems composed of a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid (pNIPAm-co-AAc) microgels (AAc-MG) and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-3-(acrylamido)phenylboronic acid) (pNIPAm-co-APBA) microgels (APBA-MG) were used to sequentially release small molecules to a system in a controlled and triggered...

Protein Separation with Self-Assembled Nanoparticle Beds: Mechanism and Separation Performance
DownloadSpring 2016
This thesis reports the separation behavior of SDS-protein complexes in colloidal self-assembled (CSA) nanoparticle beds, and the processes of stabilization of CSA beds for high voltage separation. First, the variation of electrophoretic mobility with molecular weight (6.5-66 kDa) of SDS-protein...
