  1. 1. Studies of Micellar Electrokinetic Chromatography as an Analytical Technique in Pharmaceutical Analysis - an Industrial Perspective

    Author : Karin Stubberud; Brian J. Clark; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Micellar Electrokinetic Chromatography; Pharmaceutical Analysis; Chemometrics; Validation; Mass Spectrometry; Partial-filling technique; Pilocarpine; Ibuprofen; Codeine.; Farmaceutisk kemi; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Farmaceutisk kemi; analytisk farmaceutisk kemi; Analytical Pharmaceutical Chemistry;

    Abstract : Studies have been performed to evaluate the use of micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC), one mode of capillary electrophoresis (CE), as an analytical technique in industrial pharmaceutical analysis. The potential for using chemometrics for the optimisation of MEKC methods has also been studied as well as the possibilities of coupling MEKC with mass spectrometry (MS). READ MORE

  4. 4. Cataract surgery in patients with diabetes mellitus : clinical studies

    Author : Anna Zaczek; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : diabetic retinopathy; clinically significant macular edema; miosis; mydriasis; neuropathy; phenylephrine; pilocarpine; visual acuity; laser flare intensity; cataract surgery; phacoemulsification; blood-aqueous barrier; postoperative inflammation; posterior capsule opacification; intraocular lens; Scheimflug camera;

    Abstract : The aim was to evaluate phacoemulsification cataract extraction with small incision and implantation of heparin-coated intraocular lens (IOL) in the capsular bag in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). The aqueous flare intensity, which reflects the protein concentration in the aqueous humor, was used to evaluate blood-aqueous function in patients with DM type I and type II. READ MORE

  5. 5. Aspects of the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma

    Author : Björn Friström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness in the world, and it is important that screening tests as well as treatment possibilities are improved continuously. A reliable but more rapid screening test than those already available would be of great interest. In addition, new and more effective treatment options would be most valuable. READ MORE
