  2. 11. Fault Tolerance for Real-Time Systems: Analysis and Optimization of Roll-back Recovery with Checkpointing

    Author : Dimitar Nikolov; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; soft errors; fault tolerance; real-time systems; checkpointing; reliability;

    Abstract : Increasing soft error rates in recent semiconductor technologies enforce the usage of fault tolerance. While fault tolerance enables correct operation in the presence of soft errors, it usually introduces a time overhead. READ MORE

  4. 12. The functional role of the lateral olivocochlear system and mechanisms underlying sound condtioning

    Author : Xianzhi Niu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Cochlea; dopamine; tyrosine hydroxylase; sound conditioning; apoptosis; acoustic trauma; lateral olivocochlear nucleus; D1 receptor; efferents;

    Abstract : Sound conditioning is a process induced by a low-level, non-damaging acoustic stimulus that provides protection against subsequent detrimental forms of acoustic trauma. Many hypotheses have been advanced to explain the effect of sound conditioning, but the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are still not yet known. READ MORE

  5. 13. Lab on a chip for electrophysiological measurements with control of the oxygen content : optical manipulation and spectroscopic analysis of biological cells

    Author : Ahmed Alrifaiy; Ove Axner; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Medical Engineering for Healthcare; Medicinsk teknik för hälsovård;

    Abstract : Stroke affects nearly 20 million people around the world every year. Clinically, stroke is a result of brain damage due to the shortage of oxygen delivered to the nerve cells. To minimize suffering and costs related to the disease, extensive research is performed on different levels. READ MORE

  6. 14. Microfluidic blood sample preparation for rapid sepsis diagnostics

    Author : Jonas Hansson; Hjalmar Brismar; Aman Russom; Fredrik Nikolajeff; KTH; []
    Keywords : 3D fluidic networks; bacteria isolation; inertial microfluidics; lab-on-chip; microfluidics; particle filtration; PDMS membrane; selective cell lysis. sepsis;

    Abstract : Sepsis, commonly referred to as blood poisoning, is a serious medical condition characterized by a whole-body inflammatory state caused by microbial infection. Rapid treatment is crucial, however, traditional culture-based diagnostics usually takes 2-5 days. READ MORE

  7. 15. Involvement of Membrane Transport Proteins in Intestinal Absorption and Hepatic Disposition of Drugs Using Fexofenadine as a Model Drug

    Author : Niclas Petri; Hans Lennernäs; Geoffrey Tucker; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biopharmacy; Fexofenadine; OATP; P-glycoprotein; Organic Anion Transporters; ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters; membrane transport proteins; Bioavailability; Biopharmaceutics; Biofarmaci; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis were to study the in vivo relevance of membrane transporters for intestinal absorption and the hepatic disposition of drugs in humans and preclinical models. Fexofenadine is a substrate for ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein) and members of the organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP/SLCO) family. READ MORE
