1. Flow cytometry for bioprocess control
Abstract : During bio-technical processing it is important to monitorbiological parameters such as cell growth, viability andproduct formation. Many of the analyses traditionally used areslow to perform and provide only average data for thepopulation. READ MORE

2. Blood protein coated model biomaterials : preparation, and cell and tissue response
Abstract : Solid biomaterials are widely used in bone and in soft tissue applications. Problems may then arise due to a prolonged inflammation in the proximity of the implant, resulting in the formation of a fibrous capsule and a low vascularisation near the interface. READ MORE

4. Studies of the physiological status of bacteria used for environmental applications
Abstract : Today, it is difficult to study the physiological status of inoculants in complex environments, such as soil. In this thesis, we describe the combined use of marker genes and viability stains to determine the physiological status of the bacterial cells in pure cultures and in soil. READ MORE

5. The role of the MAP- and SAP- kinase pathways in the survival, proliferation and death of Schwann cells of the injured sciatic nerve
Abstract : This thesis concerns alterations in signal transduction in Schwann cells as a response to nerve injury as well as their survival, proliferation and death. Enzymes and transcription factors belonging to the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) and the stress activated protein kinase (SAPK) pathways were studied. READ MORE
