  1. 1. Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis - A study, with emphasis on host genetics, oral microbiota composition, and immunoregulatory networks

    Author : Maria Bankvall; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aphthous stomatitis; Oral mucosa; Oral medicine; Genome-wide association study; Genetic linkage; Association; Genetic polymorphism; Microbiota; Restriction fragment length polymorphism; Antigen-presenting cell; T-lymphocyte; Lymph node; Flow cytometry;

    Abstract : Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most common oral mucosal lesions. The aetiology is unknown and currently there is no consensus regarding suitable treatment regimens. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigations of the microbial diversity and dynamics in activated sludge using molecular methods

    Author : Johan Fredriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wastewater treatment; 16S rRNA; population dynamics; terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism; microbial ecology; Archaea; activated sludge; Bacteria;

    Abstract : Wastewater treatment is necessary to reduce the health risks and environmental impacts associated with discharge of untreated wastewater. The most common way to treat wastewater in wastewater treatment plants is through the activated sludge process. READ MORE

  3. 3. Exploring the metagenome of the Baltic Sea sediment

    Author : Fredrik Hårdeman; Sara Sjöling; Gunnar Sandström; Kornelia Smalla; Södertörns högskola; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Maringeologi; Bakterier;

    Abstract : Environmental microorganisms are fundamental to ecosystem function, acting as drivers in processes such as primary production, organic matter remineralisation, pollution remediation and global biogeochemical cycling. However, the study of the bacterial communities requires the application of advanced culture-independent methods considering that only a small fraction of the community is otherwise accessed.

  4. 4. Microbiota of the alimentary tract of children - implications for allergy and inflammatory bowel disease

    Author : Fei Sjöberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gut flora; child; oral flora; allergy; duodenum; inflammatory bowel disease; culture; T-RFLP; pyrosequencing;

    Abstract : Allergy, which is the most common chronic disease in Swedish children and adolescents, is associated with a high standard of living and Western lifestyle. According to the hygiene hypothesis, allergy is due to inadequate stimulation of the immune system by microbes during early childhood, leading to failed maturation of the immune system. READ MORE

  5. 5. Quality of muscle foods : effects of feed and storage time

    Author : Shengjie Li; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the effects of feed and storage time on meat quality. To study the effect of feed, chicken were fed seven steam-pelleted or nonpelleted rapeseed (RS) diets with different RS inclusion levels (0, 80, 160, and 240 g/kg) for 34 days, and the dietary effects on meat yield, fatty acid composition in meat, and the expression of lipid metabolism-related genes in liver were determined.
