  2. 1. Environmental Effects from Wave Power : Artificial Reefs and Incidental No-take Zones

    Author : Anke Bender; Jan Sundberg; Olivia Langhamer; Louise Kregting; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Marine renewable energy; Wave power; Environmental monitoring; Artificial reef; No-take zone; Decapods; Nephrops norvegicus; ROV; Cage fishing; Biologi; Biology;

    Abstract : Marine renewable technologies have rapidly been developing over the past decade. Wave power is one of the renewable sources and has the potential securing the renewable electricity production. READ MORE

  4. 2. Acoustofluidic preparation of whole blood components

    Author : Anke Urbansky; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; acoustophoresis; ultrasound; microfluidics; cell separation; blood; blood fractionation;

    Abstract : Whole blood is rich in information about the physical state of an individual and is routinely used in a variety of clinical and research applications. In this thesis, the use of a microfluidic technique called acoustophoresis for separation of different blood components is explored. READ MORE

  5. 3. Counteracting Abuse in Health Care from a Staff Perspective : Ethical Aspects and Practical Implications

    Author : Anke Zbikowski; Katarina Swahnberg; Barbro Wijma; Kristin Zeiler; Rolf Ahlzén; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Abuse of patients by health care staff (AHC) is a cause of unnecessary suffering, which is inconsonant with the premise in medicine of not doing harm to the patient. The understanding of AHC in this thesis is considered two-dimensional: as a patient’s subjective experience and as violation of a patient’s dignity. READ MORE

  6. 4. Directing stem cells and progenitors towards neuronal differentiation - implications for experimental therapies for Parkinson's disease

    Author : Anke Brederlau; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : stem cells; Parkinson s disease; progenitors; BMP; ASK1; dopamine;

    Abstract : The insight that stem- and progenitor-cells contribute to replacement of nerve cells in the adult central nervous system is the basis of modern therapies for structural brain repair. Their goal is to protect, support and stimulate endogenous stem cells in areas affected by disease and to replace lost cells by transplanting in vitro generated, tailored nerve cells. READ MORE

  7. 5. Expanding the alphabet of fluorescent nucleic acid base analogues: Characterization of new members

    Author : Anke Dierckx; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fluorescent adenine analogue; fluorescent DNA base analogue; duplex stability; Fluorescence quantum yield; circular dichroism; B-DNA;

    Abstract : Fluorescence has proven to be a powerful tool for studying structure, dynamics and interactions of biomolecules such as proteins, RNA and DNA. However, since the natural DNA/RNA nucleobases are virtually non-fluorescent, there is a need for developing fluorescent nucleic acid markers. READ MORE
