  1. 1. Understanding the effects of TCP-25 and EDTA interaction : A study of the biophysical aspects of a naturally derived peptide formulation with EDTA for topical application

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Författare :Ebba Kant; [2023]
    Nyckelord :chronic wounds; EDTA; biophysical aspects; formulation; pharmaceutical technology; Thrombin derived C-terminal peptide; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic wounds are an emerging healthcare issue and current methods of healing chronic wounds address bacteria but are ineffective against resistant bacteria and the biofilm formation commonly observed in these wounds. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from the endogenous wound healing system have been shown to combat bacterial infections, exhibit immunomodulatory effects, as well as improving wound healing.

  3. 2. Sustainable utilization of waste and by-products from the meat industry

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Anton Glimåker; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Food waste; sustainability; protein; bioactive peptides; enzymes;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this research was to summarise existing scientific literature on waste and by-products from the meat industry and suggest how the meat industry can use it in order to reduce environmental damage, increase food availability and contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. The report is a literature study were several databases were used. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Novel ways of treating bacterial skin infections: the antimicrobial peptides REI-26 and CD4-PP

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Författare :Magdalena de Arriba Sánchez de la Campa; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Antimicrobial peptides; skin infections; wound healing;

    Sammanfattning : Severe skin and soft-tissue infections can lead to septic shock and organ failure. Antibiotic treatment is turning ineffective due to the rise of antimicrobial resistance. This calls for the need for novel antimicrobial therapies such as antimicrobial peptides. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Lipoteichoic acid extraction from plasma : Chromatography techniques utilizing truncated derivates of antimicrobial peptides

    Kandidat-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Författare :Gustav Sedelius; [2022]
    Nyckelord :antimicrobial peptides; chromatography; hemoperfusions; lipoteichoic acid; plasma; Sepsis;

    Sammanfattning : With increasing incidence rates aligned with poor prognosis; sepsis represents one of the biggest challenges in modern health care. It is a multifactorial syndrome defined as organ dysfunction caused by disturbed systemic response to an infection. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Formulation and characterization of lipid-based nanocarriers for the delivery of antimicrobial peptide

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Författare :Srijani Saha; [2022]
    Nyckelord :AP114; Antimicrobial peptide AMP ; Nanostructured lipid carriers NLC ; Liposomes; Dynamic light scattering DLS ; Hydrodynamic size distribution; Zeta potential; Entrapment efficiency EE ; Release study;

    Sammanfattning : Bakterier som är resistenta mot antibiotika har de senaste åren blivit ett stort hot mot mänskligheten. Att utveckla nya antibiotikaläkemedel är väldigt tidskrävande samt kommer med en dyr prislapp. LÄS MER
