Injectable and shape-retaining collagen hydrogel, crosslinked using bio-orthogonal cycloaddition chemistry / Injicerbara och formbevarande kollagenhydrogeler, tvärbundna med bio-ortagonal cykloadditionskemi

Sharq, Murtaza January 2022 (has links)
Under senaste decennierna, har intresset kring implantat från naturliga och syntetiska polymerer ökat markant i samband med en ökad marknadsefterfrågan på vävnadsdonationer. Detta har lett till efterforskningen av nya in-situ formerande geler med formbevarande egenskaper in-vivo. Extracellulära matrisen (ECM) innehåller flertal makromolekylära komponenter med stödjande och nätverksformerande egenskaper, då de ofta är essentiella strukturella konstituenter i biologiska system. Den huvudsakliga beståndsdelen i ECM-nätverket, kollagen typ-1, har undersökts som en kandidat för utvecklingen av nya modifierade biomaterial med cellförökande-, biokompatibla-, icke-svällande samt injicerbara egenskaper. I detta projekt var grisderiverat kollagen modifierat med furfuryl glycidyl eter, och tvärbundet med 10 kDa 8-armad PEG-malimid, vilket genomgick kovalenta Diels-alder klick-reaktioner. Fyra formuleringar användes i experimenten, baserat på de stökiometriska förhållandet mellan furan och malimid i det kemiskt modifierade kollagenet. Dessa kollagen-baserade hydrogeler undersöktes baserat på 4 wt% löst kollagen, med avseende på reologiska-, mekaniska-, bionedbrytbara och svällningsegenskaper.  Resultaten indikerar att en ökning i fastfas-mängd ledde till en förhöjning i hydrogelens styvhet. Detta kunde observeras genom en ökad lagringsmodul (G’) under reologiska mätningar. Samtidigt indikerade mätningarna att sprödheten av hydrogelen ökade i korrelation med ökningen av styvheten.  Vidare drogs slutsatsen att kovalenta interaktionerna är enbart delvis ansvarig för ökningen av G’. Jämförelser med tan delta och kritiska töjningen visade att det fanns fysiska interaktioner mellan polymererna vilket också bidrog till ökningen av G’ för gelformuleringar som innehöll furan-till-malimid förhållanden på 1:1 och 1:4. Dessa fysiska interaktioner tros härstamma från en ökning av hydrofobiska effekter mellan kollagen kedjorna, då agglomerering och löslighetssvårigheter i vattenlösningar observerades i flertal experiment. Kollagen-PEG-Malimid hydrogelen var också injicerbar genom 15G kanyler, nedbrytbar in-vitro i närvaro av kollagenas, och uppvisade låg svällning i vatten. Inga cellexperiment genomfördes, och därav kunde inga slutsatser dras i hydrogelens cellförökande egenskaper. Däremot har tidigare arbete av Dr Jamadi visat att kollagen-PEG-malimid hydrogel med 2 vikt% haft kapacitet att inkapsla celler. Detta kan vara en indikation att högre viktprocent av gelen också kan uppvisa samma effekt vid framtida försök.Sammanfattningsvis, kunde slutsatsen dras att hydrogelen uppvisar flertal av de spekulerade, samt några av de eftertraktade egenskaperna hos en injicerbar hydrogel som potentiellt kan användas kliniskt. / In recent decades, the interest in implants manufactured from natural and synthetic polymers has grown as the demand for tissue donations has increased. This process has led to the pursuit of new, in-situ forming gels with shape-retaining properties in-vivo. The extracellular matrix (ECM) contains several macromolecular constituents with scaffold forming capabilities and is an inherent part of the body. The main component in the ECM-scaffold, collagen type-I, has been investigated as a candidate for novel modified biomaterials with cell proliferating, biocompatible, non-swelling, and injectable properties. Collagen was modified with furfuryl glycidyl ether and crosslinked with 10 kDa 8-arm PEG-maleimide, which undergoes Diels-alder covalent click-type reactions. Four formulations were used, based on a stoichiometric ratio of furan to maleimide (1:1-1:4). These materials' properties were evaluated at 4 wt% collagen for rheological-, mechanical-, biodegradability and swelling characteristics. The results indicated that an increase in solid content improved stiffness in the hydrogel.  This was observed by an increase of storage modulus (G’) during rheological measurements. The same measurements also indicated that the hydrogel showed an increase in brittle characteristics correlated with higher solid content.  Furthermore, it was concluded that the covalent interactions are partly responsible for the increase of G’. Comparisons in tan delta and critical strain showed that there are physical interactions that cause the increase in moduli for gel formulations containing furan to maleimide ratios of 1:1 and 1:4. These physical interactions are thought to stem from the increase in hydrophobic effects of the modified collagen, as agglomeration and solubility issues in aqueous solutions are observed in multiple experiments.  Collagen-PEG-maleimide hydrogel was also injectable through a 15-gauge needle, degradable in-vitro, and showed low swelling. No cell experiments were performed, and hence no conclusions could be made of this aspect of the hydrogel. However, work has been performed by Dr Jamadi, which indicates that the Collagen-PEG-Maleimide hydrogel with lower weight percentages allows for cell encapsulation. Hence, it could be concluded that several characteristics of tissue mimetic material were met with this hydrogel.

Hur tolkar präster i Svenska kyrkan liknelserna i Markusevangeliets fjärde kapitel?

Stambro, Fredrik January 2024 (has links)
The purpose of this master's thesis is to explore how priests interpret the parables in the fourth chapter of the Gospel of Mark using a hermeneutic qualitative approach and semi-structured interviews. The aim is to shed light on a selected group of priests in their roles within the context of the Church of Sweden, where interpretation is a part of their work, primarily focusing on the parables in the fourth chapter of Mark's Gospel and how this is done in interpretation, both in encounters with individuals and in preaching. An inductive approach has influenced the study, which also permeates the qualitative method with a focus on creating understanding to gain knowledge about the nature of these various phenomena among four priests. Generalization is not possible due to the small number of informants for making overall generalizations. Nor is it what has been sought. The aim of qualitative research is to gain a deeper understanding of a phenomenon and to illuminate how individuals experience it in their context. The study aims to understand how a specifically selected group of individuals, namely priests who have worked for an extended period within the Swedish Church, interpret the parables in Gospel of Mark.

Der Umgang mit Variablen bei offenen Experimentieraufgaben im Physikunterricht / eine Beobachtungsstudie am Beispiel der Konstruktion von auftriebserzeugenden Profilen für ein Windradmodell

Kirchner, Stefan 08 August 2013 (has links)
Diese Forschungsarbeit beschreibt und bewertet beobachtbare Experimentierprozesse hinsichtlich der grundlegenden naturwissenschaftlichen Arbeitsweise „Umgang mit Variablen“, die Gymnasiasten am Ende der Sekundarstufe I bei der Bearbeitung einer offenen Experimentieraufgabe im Physikunterricht zeigen. Dargelegt wird zudem der Nutzen einer differenzierten Begriffsbestimmung für eine zielorientierte und strukturierte Entwicklung von offenen Experimentieraufgaben. In einer empirisch-quantitativen Exploration mit 82 Schülern wird eine offene Aufgabenstellung zum Thema Windenergie eingesetzt, die den Experimentierenden bezüglich der naturwissenschaftlichen Arbeitsweise einen hohen Grad an Entscheidungsmöglichkeiten erlaubt. Die Studie möchte für den Umgang mit Variablen die Wirksamkeit der offenen Experimentieraufgabe aufzeigen und zwar unter der Bedingung, dass Schüler vor der Bearbeitung der offenen Experimentieraufgabe eine vorbereitende bzw. keine vorbereitende Instruktion erhalten. Das Hauptinteresse der vergleichenden Studie liegt bei einem Kontexttransfer, den die Schüler von der vorbereitenden Instruktion auf die offene Experimentieraufgabe leisten müssen, wenn sie a) keinen Wechsel der Experimentierbedingungen und b) einen Wechsel der Experimentierbedingungen vorfinden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Fähigkeit der Probanden mit Variablen umzugehen, durch den Einfluss einer vorbereitenden Instruktion erheblich gesteigert wird. Eine Abhängigkeit vom Grad der Kontextunterschiede zwischen der vorbereitenden Instruktion und der offenen Experimentieraufgabe wird nur gefunden, wenn die Probanden neben den veränderten Kontexten auch veränderte Experimentierbedingungen vorfinden. Die Ergebnisse verleiten für die Vermittlung der naturwissenschaftlichen Arbeitsweise „Umgang mit Variablen“ zu der forschungsbezogenen Aussage: Mehr Offenheit beim Experimentieren wagen! / This research paper describes and rates observable experimental processes secondary school students’ (aged 16) reveal concerning the fundamental scientific method of using variables in open-ended experimental tasks in the physics classroom. In addition, the benefit of a corresponding sophisticated definition will be shown in order to enable a goal-oriented and structured development of open-ended experimental tasks. In an empirical quantitative exploration with 82 school students, an open-ended problem on the topic “wind power” is utilized, allowing a high degree of autonomy in decision-making concerning the scientific method of using variables. The study aims at demonstrating the effectiveness of open-ended experimental tasks depending on whether the students received preparing instruction beforehand. The main interest of the comparative study lies in a transfer of context that students need to perform between the preparing instruction and the open-ended experimental task with or without a shift of experimental conditions. The results show that the students’ ability to use variables is highly enhanced by receiving preparing instructions. Dependence on the degree of context-shift between preparing instruction and open-ended experimental task is only the case when students find beyond shifted contexts altered experimental conditions. Concerning the teaching of the scientific method of using variables, the results lead to a research-related statement: dare to employ more open-ended experiments!

An exploratory study of the methods and strategies implemented to integrate unaccompanied minors in five residential home in Sweden

Dao, Catherine. H January 2014 (has links)
The aim of the study was to explore what methods the personnel in five residential care homes in Götaland, Sweden, implement to integrate unaccompanied minors. The study investigated how and what methods are constructed as well as how the social interaction between the unaccompanied minors and the personnel at the homes bring about the learning of the methods. Five face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted and analysed through the perspective of social construction and social learning theory. The result revealed that the methods are not clearly identified by the personnel. The personals are still learning how to work with unaccompanied minors from their experiences. This indicates that the practice is at its infant stage. The study found a wide variety of methods, which were based on the child and where some methods intend to build good relationship, to integrate the children into society and to facilitate the development of strategies and methods. The study also addresses the issue of how the methods and strategies can be affected by the dynamic migratory flow and the question of evidence based practice within this field.

Monitorování dechu během terapie pacientů / Breath monitoring during motion therapy

Koťová, Markéta January 2013 (has links)
This semestral thesis deals with continuous monitoring of pulmonary ventilation during the patients' theraphy and focuses especially on monitoring of their ventilation processes. It is necessarry to detect, monitor and differentiate abdominal and thoracic breathing during the theraphy. This thesis describes the very basic and common method, a spirometry. Next, an overview of more advanced state-of-the-art methods based on both, tactile and proximity principles is given. In addition to that, two recently developed methods by BUT are discussed as well -- a tactile-based measurement similar to blood pressure sensor and a proximity-based measurement method employing TOF cameras. The data acquired by these two methods are proccesed and examined in order to evaluate and justify their performance in a real application.
