  1. 1. Physiological Studies of Native and Stem Cell-Derived Islets

    Author : Daniel Norman; Per-Ola Carlsson; Daniel Espes; Helge Ræder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Irisin; CART; Islet blood flow; Islets of Langerhans; Stem cell-derived islets; Fysiologi; Physiology; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract : In type 1 and type 2 diabetes, the β-cells of the islets of Langerhans are either destroyed by the immune system or stressed due to peripheral insulin resistance. To improve the life of patients with these diseases, new treatments are needed. READ MORE

  2. 2. Effects of cold and hand-arm vibration on the peripheral neurosensory and vascular system : an occupational perspective

    Author : Daniel Carlsson; Jens Wahlström; Tohr Nilsson; Erik Nordh; Hans Pettersson; Tiina Ikäheimo; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hand-arm vibration; Raynaud’s phenomenon; paresthesia; sensation of cold; hand-arm vibration syndrome; quantitative sensory testing; cold sensitivity; cold; cold exposure; frostbite; Sweden; cold injury; military; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin;

    Abstract : Background In Swedish working life, exposure to cold and exposure to hand-arm vibration (HAV) are two common health hazards. Health effects of HAV in the neurosensory, vascular and musculoskeletal systems are collectively denoted hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS), and have been thoroughly studied. READ MORE

  3. 3. Structural and Electrochemical Properties of Functionalized Nanocellulose Materials and Their Biocompatibility

    Author : Daniel O Carlsson; Maria Strømme; Leif Nyholm; Albert Mihranyan; Eva Malmström Jonsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanocellulose; nanofibrillated cellulose; Cladophora cellulose; polypyrrole; TEMPO-mediated oxidation; composite; porosity; cytocompatibility; blood compatibility; Engineering Science with specialization in Nanotechnology and Functional Materials; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot nanoteknologi och funktionella material;

    Abstract : Nanocellulose has received considerable interest during the last decade because it is renewable and biodegradable, and has excellent mechanical properties, nanoscale dimensions and wide functionalization possibilities. It is considered to be a unique and versatile platform on which new functional materials can be based. READ MORE

  4. 4. Luminescent molecular recognition of pathognomonic and aging associated protein aggregates

    Author : Daniel Sjölander; Per Hammarström; Peter Nilsson; Uno Carlsson; Jan Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Various protein inclusions have been recognized to be associated with aging and pathogenic conditions, such as in Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Type 2 diabetes, and the prionoses Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Chronic wasting disease (CWD), and Mad cow disease. The causative transition of protein aggregation is the alteration in the conformation of the protein that renders the protein susceptible towards self-assembly. READ MORE

  5. 5. Near wall fibre orientation in flowing suspensions

    Author : Allan Carlsson; Daniel Söderberg; Fredrik Lundell; Helge I. Andersson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid mechanics; fibre orientation; shear flow; wall effect; fibre suspension; papermaking; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with fibre orientation in wall-bounded shear flows. The primary application in mind is papermaking. The study is mainly experimental,but is complemented with theoretical considerations.The main part of the thesis concerns the orientation of slowly settlingfibres in a wall-bounded viscous shear flow.
