1. Development of new blood banking strategies for processing and storage of red blood cell components
Abstract : The field of red blood cell (RBC) components has been quite uneventful during the last few decades, save for the experimental exploration of alternative additive solution compositions. The reason is likely that the RBC quality has been good enough and the shelf-life of conventional RBC concentrates (RCC) has been long enough to not really motivate the workload that any dramatic changes would implicate.

2. Fixation of the cemented acetabular component in hip arthroplasty
Abstract : In total hip arthroplasty cemented fixation of the acetabular component is a generally successful concept, but the rate of aseptic loosening and consequent revision surgery is still too high. One of the crucial factors for longterm implant survival is the initial fixation and stability. READ MORE

3. Separation and Further Characterization of Hematopoietic Cell Populations Based on Phenotypic and Biophysical Properties
Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are multipotent and possess self-renewal capacity. Thus, they can sustain a life-long hematopoiesis and are also capable of restoring the hematopoietic system when transplanted to a patient. READ MORE

4. From Lab to Chip – and back : Polymer microfluidic systems for sample handling in point-of-care diagnostics
Abstract : This thesis contributes to the development of Lab-on-a-Chip systems that enables reliable, rapid medical diagnostics at the point-of-care. These contributions are focused on microfluidic Lab-on-a-Chip systems for sepsis diagnosis, autonomous sample-to-answer tests, and dried blood spot sampling. READ MORE

5. Unraveling the immune response in sepsis and meningitis. Diagnostic and therapeutic approaches
Abstract : Severe infections continue to constitute a large burden, with high mortality and risk of sequelae. Sepsis is a dysregulated host response to an infection that causes life threatening organ damage. Meningitis is a severe infection of the brain that often leads to sepsis and death or lasting neurological damage. READ MORE
