  2. 1. Anti-cancer effects of bioactive compounds from rose hip fruit in human breast cancer cell lines : carotenoids, triterpenes, and ascorbate evaluated singly or in combination

    Author : Lijie Zhong; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURAL SCIENCES; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Rose hips have long been used in human diets as a food ingredient and supplement. Their multiple medical properties, which have been attributed to their abundant carotenoid composition, have attracted widespread scientific attention. This thesis examined the carotenoid composition in rose hips from five rose species. READ MORE

  4. 2. Drug resistance in mycobacterium tuberculosis

    Author : Getahun Abate; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Multidrug-resistance; tuberculosis; cefepime; moxicillin-clavulanate; ethambutol; WIT; rifampicin; isoniazid; katG;

    Abstract : Drug-resistant tuberculosis is a global public health problem. This investigation was performed to find ways of improving regimens that could be used for the treatment of drug- and multidrug-resistant TB and also to find a rapid method of diagnosis of drug resistant TB, particularly MDR-TB. Among 107 isolates of M. READ MORE

  5. 3. The role of liquid resin in orthodontic bonding : toxicological, bond strength and clinical aspects

    Author : Alexander Tin Hong Tang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cytotoxicity; dental acrylic resins; enamel adhesion; orthodontic bonding;

    Abstract : Dental acrylic composites are rarely fully polymerized in situ. Their unpolymerized components are related to undesirable occupational exposure to dental, particularly orthodontic, personnel. READ MORE

  6. 4. Assessing the toxic impact of chemicals using bacteria

    Author : Jenny Gabrielson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Bacteria; toxicity testing; ecotoxicity; phylogenetic diversity; growth inhibition;

    Abstract : There is a considerable backlog in the testing of new chemical compounds for their ecotoxic properties, mostly due to the lack of appropriate testing methods. In addition, there is a vivid debate today about the test endpoint for many of the existing methods. READ MORE

  7. 5. Engineered core-shell nanoparticles for biomedical applications
