21. Gene therapy by enzyme replacement for Parkinson’s disease Optimization of continuous DOPA delivery and development of a candidate vector for clinical application
Abstract : The introduction of L-DOPA pharmacotherapy revolutionized the treatment of Parkinson’s disease close to fifty years ago. Before the discovery of dopamine as a neurotransmitter and its involvement in the disease, these patients had very little aid from medication and were bound to a life without movement. READ MORE

23. Modelling parkinsonian akinesia and dyskinesia in dopamine depleted rodents
Abstract : Animal models of Parkinson’s disease and L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia are essential to explore pathophysiological hypotheses and to test new treatment options. There are many different animal models of Parkinson's disease, which differ greatly with respect to species, mechanisms of nigral cell death, and extent of dopamine-dependent motor deficits.

24. Phenolic compounds and ascorbic acid in black currant (Ribes nigrum L.) : variation due to genotype, ontogenetic stage, harvest date and location
Abstract : Black currant is an edible soft fruit crop that is now attracting increased scientific attention due to its high content of potentially beneficial phenolic compounds and ascorbic acid. Using HPLC and spectrophotometry, this thesis examined the content of phenolic compounds in buds, leaves and fruits of black currant plants grown in southern and northern Sweden. READ MORE

25. Two-Stage Conversion of Land and Marine Biomass for Biogas and Biohydrogen Production
Abstract : The replacement of fossil fuels by renewable fuels such as biogas and biohydrogen will require efficient and economically competitive process technologies together with new kinds of biomass. A two-stage system for biogas production has several advantages over the widely used one-stage continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). READ MORE
