Production and characterization of MHC class II invariant chain complex

Author(s): Dušana Majera (Author), Dušan Turk (Supervisor), Jaques Neefjes (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2012

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules are polymorphic cell surface glycoproteins expressed only on the surface of the professional antigen presenting cells and they play a crucial role in the adaptive immune responses. MHC class II molecules undergo a very complex maturation process. They are synthesized in the endoplasmic …

Sonochemical synthesis and characterization of hydroxyapatite/metal-based composite materials for biomedical applications

Author(s): Marija Vukomanović (Author), Srečo Davor Škapin (Supervisor), Dragan Uskoković (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2012

Type: Doctoral dissertation

A new approach for the synthesis of silver (Ag), platinum (Pt) and gold (Au) nanoparticles and their composites with hydroxyapatite (HAp) is developed via a sonochemical process. The major goal was to design physicochemical properties of material in order to achieve: (i) intensive antibacterial activity and (ii) maximal reduction of …

A New Synthesis Route to Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-Based Materials by the Controlled Agglomeration of Reagent Particles

Author(s): Gregor Trefalt (Author), Marija Kosec (Supervisor), Bosiljka Tadić (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2012

Type: Doctoral dissertation

In this thesis we demonstrate a new, simple, and ecient method for the solid-state synthesis of oxides with a complex chemical composition. We modify the traditional solidstate synthesis method, which is used in the majority of ceramics laboratories around the world, in order to prepare multi-metallic oxide powders from classic …

Synthesis and Characterization of Bi12SiO20 Thin Films Prepared by Sol-gel Method

Author(s): Asja Veber (Author), Danilo Suvorov (Supervisor)

Year: 2010

Type: Doctoral dissertation

The sillenites Bi12MO20 (M = Si, Ge, Ti, Pb, Mn, B1/2P1/2) have been recognised as promising bulk materials for electronic applications because their dielectric properties (5.5 GHz: ε = 37.4 - 41, τf = -19 – (-84) ppm/K, Q x f = 800 - 8100 and Tsin = 680 - …

The hydrolysis of AlN powder and its use for the synthesys of nanostructured alumina coatings

Author(s): Andraž Kocjan (Author), Tomaž Kosmač (Supervisor), Kristoffer Krnel (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2010

Type: Doctoral dissertation

he thesis describes a study of aluminum nitride (AlN) powder hydrolysis in the temperature range between 5 °C and 90 °C. The analysis of the temperature dependence of the course of the hydrolysis and the reaction kinetics, along with a mechanistic model set up for the hydrolysis reactions, gives a …
