  2. 1. Microfluidic bead-based methods for DNA analysis

    Author : Aman Russom; Ulf Gyllensten; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; single nucleotide polymorphism; DNA analysis; SNP; microfluidics; pyrosequencing; beads; lab on a chip; hybridization; DASH; microsystem; micro totat analysis system; allele-specific extension; DASH; microcontact printing; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : With the completion of the human genome sequencing project, attention is currently shifting toward understanding how genetic variation, such as single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), leads to disease. To identify, understand, and control biological mechanisms of living organisms, the enormous amounts of accumulated sequence information must be coupled to faster, cheaper, and more powerful technologies for DNA, RNA, and protein analysis.

  4. 2. Technology development for genome and polymorphism analysis

    Author : Magnus Jobs; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : SNP; Genotyping technology; DASH; Array technology; Assay design;

    Abstract : Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is widely expected to provide a multitude of benefits in areas of medical research. There is, however, a growing disparity between the rate of SNP discovery and the development of effective technologies for large scale SNP scoring. READ MORE

  5. 3. SNP technology and Alzheimer’s disease

    Author : Walter Mathias Howell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : One major goal of genetic research is to understand the role of genetic variation. By far the most common type of such variation in humans involves single DNA bases, and is termed single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). READ MORE

  6. 4. Assembly of microsystems for optical and fluidic applications

    Author : Sjoerd Haasl; Göran Stemme; Richard Syms; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Applied mechanics; microsystem technology; micromachining; assembly; active alignment; BCB; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses assembly issues encountered in optical and fluidic microsystem applications. In optics, the first subject concerns the active alignment of components in optical fibersystems. READ MORE

  7. 5. Functional genetics of the interleukin-4 receptors in allergic asthma

    Author : Ann-Marie Bergin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Asthma; association study; candidate genes; IL4R; CIITA; alternative splicing; minigene;

    Abstract : Asthma is a complex disorder, with both genetic and environmental factors contributing to disease development. Our aim was to analyse possible associations between genetic variations of immunologically important genes and the susceptibility to and severity of allergic asthma in adults. READ MORE
