  2. 1. Molecular analysis of Streptococcus pyogenes and its interactions with the human host

    Author : Andreas Berge; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; complement activation; fibrinogen; IgG; M protein; C5a peptidase; streptococcal cysteine proteinase; streptokinase; t-PA; Streptococcus pyogenes; plasminogen; C1q; insertional sequence.; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : Streptococcus pyogenes causes infections only in humans, from trivial tonsillitis to life-threatening conditions. One of its most important virulence factors is the M-like protein family conferring resistance to phagocytosis to the bacterium. The M-like proteins are surface exposed rod-like molecules attached to the cell wall. Each strain of S. READ MORE

  6. 4. Assessment of novel applications for nano-porous thermal insulation in district heating pipes and building walls

    Author : Axel Berge; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Adaptive façade; nano-porous insulation; thermal insulation; district heating pipes; hybrid insulation;

    Abstract : In nano-porous thermal insulation there is a strong relation between the pressure and the thermal conductivity, even at pressures close to atmospheric pressure. This thesis presents research on applications of nano-porous insulation in hybrid insulation district heating pipes and in building walls. READ MORE

  7. 5. Novel Thermal Insulation in Future Building and District Heating Applications - Hygrothermal Measurements and Analysis

    Author : Axel Berge; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vacuum insulation panels; superinsulation; aerogel blankets; wooden stud walls; thermal conductivity; district heating;

    Abstract : The interest for reducing the energy consumption in society has increased during the last decades due to an increased environmental awareness. One way to decrease the energy losses in the building sector is to improve the thermal insulation of building envelopes and installations and thereby decrease the heat losses. READ MORE
