  1. 1. In Vivo Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy of Human Tissue : From Point Measurements to Imaging

    Author : Erik Häggblad; Göran Salerud; Tomas Strömberg; Maurice C. G. Maurice C. G. Aalders; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Medical engineering; Medicinsk teknik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the non-invasive use of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) to provide information about the biochemical composition of living tissue. During DRS measurements, the incident, visible light is partially absorbed by chromophores but also scattered in the tissue before being remitted. READ MORE

  2. 2. Plant-Derived Substances and Cardiovascular Diseases : Effects of Flavonoids, Terpenes and Sterols on Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Nitric Oxide

    Author : Ingrid Persson; Rolf G.G. Andersson; Lars Bohlin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Diet has for many years been known to play a key role in the development of chronic diseases. There are clear associations between consumption of vegetables, fruits and berries, and risk of cardiovascular diseases, the number one cause of death in the world. READ MORE

  3. 3. Design, Fabrication, and Characterization of Nano-Photonic Components Based on Silicon and Plasmonic Material

    Author : Liu Liu; Lars Thylén; Roe Baets; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nano-photonics; finite-difference time-domain method; finite-difference mode solver; amorphous silicon; silicon nanowire; arrayed waveguide grating; photonic crystal; Photonics; Fotonik;

    Abstract : Size reduction is a key issue in the development of contemporary integrated photonics. This thesis is mainly devoted to study some integrated photonic components in sub-wavelength or nanometric scales, both theoretically and experimentally. READ MORE

  4. 4. Le Fantôme de l’Opéra - Studies on Atoms and Electrons Beneath

    Author : Chang Liu; Lars G. M. Pettersson; Anders Nilsson; Anders Hellman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbon dioxide reduction; Subsurface oxygen; X-ray spectroscopy; Density functional theory; CO desorption; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : The carbon dioxide reduction reaction is a promising candidate to tackle ecological challenges of our age. This is due to its capability of reducing carbon dioxide emission generated from the combustion of fossil fuels by converting carbon dioxide into valuable hydrocarbons. READ MORE

  5. 5. Characterization of secreted Giardia intestinalis cysteine proteases

    Author : Jingyi Liu; Staffan G Svärd; Lars Hellman; Andre Buret; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Giardia intestinalis; ESPs; CPs; apical junction; chemokines; phage display; immunoglobulins; defensins; mucin.; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Biology with specialization in Microbiology;

    Abstract : Giardia intestinalis, the causative agent of the diarrheal disease giardiasis, is a protozoan parasite that colonizes the upper small intestine of mammals, including humans. It can be divided into eight genotypes or assemblages (A through H) and only assemblage A and B are infective to humans. READ MORE
