Thesis
CLOW, S.M. 2004. Pharmaceutical applications and crystal structures of trehalose and its derivatives. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2807331

a-a’-Trehalose dihydrate, a-D-glucopyranosyl-a-D-glucopyranoside, is a naturally occurring sugar composed of two glucose monomers with an a-1,1-glycosidic linkage. Some plants and animals utilise trehalose to facilitate cryptobiosis (life without wat... Read More about Pharmaceutical applications and crystal structures of trehalose and its derivatives..

A stability study of dithranol in solution, formulations and in normal and psoriatic skin. (1994)
Thesis
LUBWIKA, P. 1994. A stability study of dithranol in solution, formulations and in normal and psoriatic skin. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

For more than 100 years dithranol has been successfully used for the treatment of psoriasis . It is still not fully understood, however, how it exerts its antipsoriatic effect. From the information available to date it is clear that the actual proces... Read More about A stability study of dithranol in solution, formulations and in normal and psoriatic skin..

The development and evaluation of a hydrogel drug delivery system for dithranol. (1991)
Thesis
PRIPREM, A. 1991. The development and evaluation of a hydrogel drug delivery system for dithranol. Robert Gordon Institute of Technology, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1744913

Dithranol is widely used in the treatment of psoriasis, but it has the drawbacks of instability, staining of skin and clothes, and irritation, especially of non-involved skin. A polyurethaneurea hydrogel in sheet form has been used to investigate the... Read More about The development and evaluation of a hydrogel drug delivery system for dithranol..

A study of the binding of anti-aggregatory substances to platelet bound plasma proteins. (1983)
Thesis
SIMPSON, C. 1983. A study of the binding of anti-aggregatory substances to platelet bound plasma proteins. Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1993218

The binding of a number of platelet active compounds to serum albumin was studied using several direct fluorescence methods and fluorescence polarisation. Particular emphasis was placed on the study of the binding of dipyridamole (DPD) and its analog...
