  1. 1. Socioeconomic and sex differences in adolescents’ dietary intake, anthropometry and physical activity in Cameroon, Africa

    Author : Léonie Dapi N.; Urban Janlert; Christel Larsson; Agneta Hörnell; Thorkild Tylleskär; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adolescents; socioeconomic; energy intake; nutrient intake; physical activity; under-overweight; Cameroon; Public health science; Folkhälsovetenskap; näringslära; Nutrition;

    Abstract : Background: People in Cameroon are experiencing a dietary transition characterized by changing from traditional food habits to increased intake of highly processed sweet and fatty food. The rapid change in food pattern combined with an increased sedentary lifestyle has resulted in a rather high prevalence of obesity, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes.

  2. 2. DNA Electrophoresis: Optical Probing and Microscopic Imaging to Understand Separation Mechanisms

    Author : Anette Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; optical probing; YOYO; polarized light spectroscopy; DNA electrophoresis; DAPI; binding modes; helix alignment; fluorescence microscopy;

    Abstract : The aim of this work was to combine spectroscopic, mobility, and fluorescence microscopy studies to elucidate the mechanisms behind DNA electrophoresis, a method to separate DNA molecules according to size. The microscopy studies require staining of the DNA with a fluorescent dye. READ MORE

  3. 3. A biophysical study of nucleic acid interactions with analogues and drugs

    Author : Ulrica Sehlstedt; Donald M Crothers; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nucleic acids; binding modes; polarised light spectroscopy; linear dichroism; NMR; triple helix; base-pair breathing dynamics; DAPI; porphyrins; quinoxaline derivatives; Biophysics; Biofysik; Biophysics; biofysik;

    Abstract : work presented in this thesis concerns studies on the physicochemical nature of interactions between nucleic acids and small ligands. The outcome of such studies can yield insights at a molecular level into the physiological mechanisms of action of biologically active nucleic-acid binding molecules. READ MORE

  5. 5. A novel method using DNA binding fluorochromes as indirect probes to study linker histone-chromatin interactions in situ

    Author : Helena Loborg; Pierre Åman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Over the years, a variety of methods have been used to study chromatin structure. These techniques have provided valuable information about nuclear framework, chromatin organisation, and the proteins that are involved in the formation and maintenance of chromatin. READ MORE
