  1. 11. Proximity Ligation as a Universal Protein Detection Tool

    Author : Mats Gullberg; Charles Cantor; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Molecular medicine; Proximity ligation; proteomics; aptamer; antibody; molecular beacon; rolling circle amplification; Molekylärmedicin; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Abstract : Among the great challenges in biology are the precise quantification of specific sets of proteins and analyses of their patterns of interaction on a much larger scale than is possible today.This thesis presents a novel protein detection technique - proximity ligation - and reports the development and application of a nucleic acid amplification technique, RCA.

    Abstract : Improved analytical methods provide new opportunities for both biological research and medical applications. This thesis describes several novel molecular techniques for nucleic acid and protein analysis based on detection or sequencing of amplified single molecules (ASMs). READ MORE

  4. 14. Molecular diagnostics of infectious diseases

    Author : Malin Nygren; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In DNA-based diagnostics, the polymerase chain reaction(PCR) is the most widely used DNA amplification method. Toenable both sensitive and specific detection of agents causinginfectious diseases, the PCR needs to becombined with methodsto prepare the clinical sample containing the genetic materialof the pathogen.

  5. 15. Selector Technology : For Multiplex DNA Analysis

    Author : Fredrik Dahl; Mats Nilsson; Ulf Landegren; Ivo Glynne Gut; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Genetic engineering; DNA technology; Genteknik; Genetic engineering including functional genomics; Genteknik inkl. funktionsgenomik;

    Abstract : A majority of methods for identifying sequences in the human genome involve target sequence amplification through PCR. This work presents novel methods for amplifying circularized DNA and presents solutions for some major limitations of PCR. READ MORE
