  3. 3. Towards a new strategy for systematic screening for hazardous and harmful alcohol consumption in primary health care

    Author : Kjell Johansson; Anders Romelsjö; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : alcohol consumtion; screening; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Alcohol consumption is the third largest risk factor for morbidity and mortality in developed countries. In order to counteract the negative effects of the increasing alcohol consumption in Sweden, there is an urgent need to disseminate and integrate screening for hazardous and harmful alcohol use into the existing routines of primary health care.

  4. 4. Antibodies for better or worse or Antibody variability in an egg-laying mammal and a novel strategy in the treatment of allergies

    Author : Jeannette Johansson; Kjell-Olov Grönvik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; Antibody; variability; platypus; allergy; vaccine; adjuvant; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Molecular Immunology; molekylär immunologi;

    Abstract : Antibodies are a central part of the immune defense system, and a large variability in their specificity is needed in order to be able to react against all possible foreign substances we may encounter during our lives. In this thesis, results are presented from investigations into how an egg-laying mammal, the Australian duck-billed platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) creates antibody variability. READ MORE

  5. 5. Growth and Characterization of ZnO Nanocrystals

    Author : Leif KE Ericsson; Kjell O Magnusson; Lars SO Johansson; Hanmin M Zhang; Omer Nour; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ZnO; Nanocrystals; Surface physics; XPS; SEM; AES; AFM; STM; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The understanding of surfaces of materials is of crucial importance to all of us. Considering nanocrystals (NCs), that have a large surface to bulk ratio, the surfaces become even more important. Therefore, it is important to understand the fundamental surface properties in order to use NCs efficiently in applications. READ MORE
