  2. 1. Metabolic variation in autoimmune diseases

    Author : Rasmus Kirkegaard Madsen; Johan Trygg; Thomas Moritz; Torbjörn Lundstedt; Matej Oresic; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Rheumatoid Arthritis; Diabetes Mellitus type 1; Metabolic Profiling; Metabolomics; Chemometrics; Multivariate Data Analysis; Mass Spectrometry; biologisk kemi; biological chemistry;

    Abstract : The human being and other animals contain immensely complex biochemical processes that govern their function on a cellular level. It is estimated that several thousand small molecules (metabolites) are produced by various biochemical pathways in humans. READ MORE

  4. 2. Processing and analysis of NMR data : Impurity determination and metabolic profiling

    Author : Jenny Forshed; Sven P. Jacobsson; Jules L. Griffin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry; qNMR; multivariate analysis; peak alignment; data fusion; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry as an analytical tool. The theory of NMR spectroscopy in general and quantitative NMR spectrometry (qNMR) in particular is described and the instrumental properties and parameter setups for qNMR measurements are discussed.

  5. 3. Antibody based plasma protein profiling

    Author : Ulrika Qundos; Jochen M. Schwenk; Peter Nilsson; Mathias Uhlén; Ulrike Korf; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; protein profiling; plasma; antibody; affinity proteomics; biomark- ers; multiplex; assay development;

    Abstract : This thesis is about protein profiling in serum and plasma using antibody suspension bead arrays for the analysis of biobanked samples and in the context of prostate cancer biomarker discovery. The influence of sample preparation methods on antibody based protein profiles were investigated (Papers I-III) and a prostate cancer candidate biomarker identified and verified (Papers III-V).

    Abstract : Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities are driving climate change, but the pending crisis could be mitigated by a circular carbon economy where released CO2 is recycled into commodity chemicals. Autotrophic microbes can make a contribution by producing chemicals, such as biofuels, from CO2 and renewable energy. READ MORE

  7. 5. Search for molecular and metabolic mechanisms contributing to impaired β-cell function

    Author : Siri Malmgren; Diabetes - epigenetik; []
