2. 1. Detection of human papillomavirus : a study of normal cells, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cancer of the uterine cervix

   Author : Magnus Evander; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HPV; PCR; General primers; Genital cancer;

   Abstract : Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections of the genital tract are now recognized to be among the most prevalent sexually transmitted diseases and also a contributing factor to some cancers of the lower genital tract of women and men. Presence of HPV in a clinical specimen is confined to detection of the HPV genome by DNA hybridization techniques. READ MORE

4. 2. The ubiquity and type diversity of papillomaviruses in normal skin

   Author : Annika Antonsson; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; skin phylogeny; HPV prevalence; HPV type detrmination; PCR; human papillomavirus; HPV;

   Abstract : Papillomaviruses are a diverse, epitheliotropic group of viruses. Some genotypes are the main cause of anogenital cancer in humans; others can induce skin lesions. In order to investigate the occurrence of subclinical skin infections with human papillomavirus (HPV), a pair of degenerate primers (FAP59/64) was designed. READ MORE

5. 3. Studies on genital ulcer disease in Tanzania. Aetiology with special reference to Haemophilus ducreyi, association with human immunodeficiecy virus infection, and human papilloma virus

   Author : Judica Mbwana; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : GUD; H. ducreyi; HSV-2; HIV-1; HdCDT; ELISA; RAPD; PCR; HPV;

   Abstract : Genital ulcer diseases (GUD) caused by Haemophilus ducreyi, Treponema pallidum and herpessimplex type 2 (HSV-2) are an important health problem in many developing countries. Ulcerativesexually transmitted infections (STIs) have been associated with increased acquisition andtransmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). READ MORE

6. 4. Resistance to neuraminidase inhibitors in influenza A virus isolated from mallards

   Author : Goran Orozovic; Björn Olsen; Johan Lennerstrand; Sigvard Olofsson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; influenza; mallards; neuraminidase; PCR; sequencing; mutation; oseltamivir; zanamivir; resistance; NAI; antivirals; pandemic; Virology; Virologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik; Zoonotisk ekologi; Zoonotic Ecology; Virology; Virologi; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

   Abstract : Influenza A virus belongs to the Orothomyxoviridae family of viruses and is one of the most common pathogens that cause infections of the respiratory tract. The aim of this thesis was to investigate if neuraminidase inhibitor (NAI) Tamiflu® (oseltamivir, OC) and Relenza® (zanamivir, ZA) - related resistance mutations exist in the neuraminidase (NA) gene of viruses collected from wild birds.

7. 5. Detection and Quantification of Variable Viral RNA by Real-Time PCR Assays

   Author : Shaman Muradrasoli; Jonas Blomberg; Göran Friman; Maria Brytting; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Virology; Diagnosis of Viral RNA; QPCR; RNA virus; broadly targeted PCR; probe design strategy; Infectious diseases; Medicin; Medicine;

   Abstract : As the area of nucleic acid based technologies develops, so will our understanding of how structural variations in DNA and RNA pathogens are associated with disease. The overall goal of this thesis is the development of broadly targeted measurement techniques for variable viral RNA by Real-Time PCR (here referred to as quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR, QRT-PCR).
