Development of a biosensor for the detection of Helicobacter hepaticus utilizing multi-functioning immobilization platforms
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Optical biosensor development is a process involving the careful selection of the material for the immobilization platform, design of the detection mechanism and integration with optical and electronic equipment. The ability ...
Electrospinning lecithin-polycaprolactone scaffolds with gold nanoparticles for osteoarthritis prevention
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
/v) and the amount of lecithin mixed with PCL was 40% (40:40), and 50% (w/v) solute needed with 50% soy lecithin with PCL (50:50). 20 nm gold nanoparticles were then introduced at 1%, 5%, and 10% (v/v) to modulate the inflammatory response. The chemical composition...
Development of a fluorescence-based protease biosensor using nanoscale platforms
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
The development of a protease biosensor utilizing nanomaterials is presented in this dissertation. Peptide substrates and nanomaterial platforms were investigated to increase the sensitivity and response time for the ...
