  1. 1. Electrochemical and Enzymatic In Vitro Studies on Reactive Drug Metabolites. Synthesis, Characterization and Avoidance

    Author : Tove Johansson Mali´n; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cytochrome P450; Drug; Electrochemical oxidation; Electrochemistry; Intermediate; Metabolism; Metabolic activation; Mimicry; Reactive Metabolite; Trapping.;

    Abstract : During development of pharmaceuticals, it is essential to as early as possible identify and preferably avoid formation of reactive metabolites and intermediates. Reactive metabolites may represent obstacles in the development and use of drugs, due to their potential toxicity. READ MORE

  2. 2. Normative Encounters between the ‘Global’ and the ‘Local’: : Women, Peace and Security in Mali and Rwanda

    Author : Jenny Lorentzen; Statsvetenskapliga institutionen; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; norms; practice; discourse; gender; peace building; Mali; Rwanda;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the multiple and often overlapping encounters between ‘global’ and ‘local’ norms, actors, practices, and discourses which take place when norms travel between different socio-political contexts. This is done through a study of how global gender equality norms embedded in the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda are promoted in two war to peace transitions: Mali and Rwanda. READ MORE

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plasmodium falciparum; Malaria; Immunity; Ethnic groups; Mali; Senegal; Genetic factors; IL-4; IL-10; Polymorphism; MOI; RBC variants; Immunology; Immunologi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Abstract : This study investigated the associations between IL-4 -590 C/T and IL-10 -1087 A/G polymorphisms and malariometric indexes in the Fulani and the Dogon ethnic groups living in sympatry in Mali and differing in susceptibility to malaria. The correlations between antibodies level and parasitological data as well as splenomegaly were assessed. READ MORE

  5. 5. Human candidate polymorphisms and malaria susceptibility in sympatric ethnic groups, The Fulani and The Dogon of Mali
