21. Advanced molecular tools for diagnostic analyses of RNA and antibodies in situ and in solution
Abstract : Advanced molecular diagnostics uses in vitro biological assays to detect nucleic acids or proteins even in low concentrations across samples, allowing for the identification of biomarkers, monitoring the course of the disease over time, and selection of appropriate therapy. In this thesis, I focus on development and early applications of several molecular tools of expected value in research, and eventually also clinically. READ MORE

22. Diagnostic methods for bacterial etiology in adult community-acquired pneumonia
Abstract : The etiologic agent is often unidentified in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Development of new diagnostic methods has been encouraged. We aimed to develop a multiplex PCR (mPCR) assay for common bacterial pathogens and evaluate the diagnostic usefulness of this assay and of respiratory culture in CAP. READ MORE

23. Multiplex HLA-DR-DQ genotyping : for genetic epidemiology and clinical risk assessment
Abstract : The human leukocyte antigens (HLA) are highly polymorphic cell surface proteins encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region on chromosome 6. The HLA system has been well known as transplantation antigens but the primary biological role of the HLA molecules is regulation of immune response by presenting peptide fragments to T-lymphocytes.

24. Advances in DNA Detection
Abstract : DNA detection technologies have an increasing importance in our everyday lives, with applications ranging from microbial diagnostics to forensic analysis, food safety evaluation, and environmental monitoring. Currently, as the associated costs decrease, DNA diagnostic techniques are routinely used in research laboratories, in clinical and forensic practice. READ MORE

25. Diagnostic evaluation of fetal death with special reference to intrauterine infections
Abstract : The incidence of intrauterine fetal death (>=28 gestational weeks) is approximately 4/1000 births in Sweden. In order to arrive at a potential cause of death, a number of investigations have been recommended in the diagnostic evaluation of intrauterine fetal death (IUFD). READ MORE
