  1. 6. The molecular basis of Plasmodium falciparum resistance to the antimalarial lumefantrine

    Author : Christin Sisowath; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Malaria control is compromised by the development and spread of Plasmodium falciparum resistance to antimalarial drugs, which has caused an increase in malaria related morbidity and mortality. Artemisinin based combination therapy (ACT) has been implemented in almost all malaria endemic areas in an attempt to suppress drug resistance. READ MORE

  2. 7. Viral Loop Dynamics in Temperate and Polar Freshwaters

    Author : Christin Säwström; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; akvatisk ekologi; aquatic ecology; marine biology; Hydrobiology; temperate; polar; freshwaters; nutrient limitation; bacterial mortality; lysogeny; dissolved organic carbon; humic; Arctic; Antarctic; Bacteria; Virus; limnology; Marinbiologi; limnologi;

    Abstract : All cellular organisms in aquatic environments are susceptible to virus attack. Viruses are the smallest but most abundant biological entities in freshwaters. This thesis describes interactions between viruses and bacteria in temperate and polar freshwaters with particular emphasis on Arctic and Antarctic aquatic systems. READ MORE

  3. 8. Production and delivery of recombinant subunit vaccines

    Author : Christin Andersson; KTH; []
    Keywords : Affibody; Affinity chromatography; Affinity purification; DNA immunization; Expression plasmid; Fusion protein; Hydrophobic tag; Iscoms; Lipid tagging; Malaria; Mammalian cell expression; Recombinant immunogen; Respiratory Syncytial Virus; Semliki Fo;

    Abstract : Recombinant strategies are today dominating in thedevelopment of modern subunit vaccines. This thesis describesstrategies for the production and recovery of protein subunitimmunogens, and how genetic design of the expression vectorscan be used to adapt the immunogens for incorporation intoadjuvant systems.

  4. 9. Shipworm ecology in Swedish coastal waters

    Author : Christin Appelqvist; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Shipworms (Teredinidae) are marine bivalves adopted for boring into submerged wood, which they efficiently fragmentize and consume. They thereby perform a vital ecosystem service, yet simultaneously they cause extensive damage to important man-made marine structures. READ MORE

  5. 10. Diffusion-Induced Nonlinear Dynamics in Carbon Nanomechanical Resonators

    Author : Christin Edblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mass sensing; graphene; stochastic differential equations; diffusion; carbon nanotubes; resonators; nanoelectromechanical systems; equations of motion; nonlinear dynamics; dissipation; Fokker-Planck equation; noise; nonequilibrium dynamics;

    Abstract : The emergence of nanoelectromechanical systems has enabled the development of sensors capable of detecting mass, charge, force, position, and spin with an unprecedented precision. In particular, the low mass, high resonant frequency, and high quality factor of carbon nanomechanical resonators make them ideal for the creation of a high sensitivity mass sensor. READ MORE
