1. Telomere analysis of normal and neoplastic hematopoietic cells : studies focusing on fluorescence in situ hybridization and flow cytometry
Abstract : The telomeres are specialized structures at the end of the chromosomes composed of the repeated DNA sequence (TTAGGG)n and specific proteins bound to the DNA. The telomeres protect the chromosomes from degradation and end to end fusions. READ MORE

2. Genetic characterization of non-Hodgkin lymphomas using in situ hybridization
Abstract : Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) has been shown to be a valuable and important technique in cytogenetics, as a complement to traditional banding analysis. This thesis focus on the characterization of chromosomal rearrangements in two hematological neoplasias, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) using FISH. READ MORE

4. Genotyping RNA and DNA using padlock probes
Abstract : Novel techniques are needed to investigate the genetic variation revealed in the first draft of the human genome sequence. Padlock probes are recently developed reagents, suitable for detecting single-nucleotide variations of DNA and RNA in situ or in solution. READ MORE

5. Biotechnological treatment of chlorophenol-contaminated water
Abstract : Widespread presence of toxic and persistent pollutants in the environment, even at low concentrations, causes risks of adverse effects to human health and the ecosystem. Biological methods for treatment of water streams and removal of persistent pollutants are of great interest due to their simplicity, low cost, and mild operational conditions without harmful by-products.
