1. Characterisation of weak and null phenotypes in the KEL and JK blood group systems
Abstract : The focus of this thesis is on KEL and JK, two clinically important blood group systems, and the investigations of blood samples with aberrant antigen expression as in null and weak phenotypes, or with a phenotype that does not correspond to genotype. With the increasing use of DNA assays based on single nucleotide polymorphisms for blood group prediction, it is important to characterize the blood-groupencoding genes. READ MORE

2. Null Ellipsometry and Protein Adsorption to Model Biomaterials
Abstract : When implants are inserted into the human body cascades of events become started that will determine the outcome of wound healing and ultimately the success of the implantation. The events start with the adsorption of small molecules, and proteins that may be activated (enzymes) or are able to activate cells of the immune defense and the healing process. READ MORE

3. Detecting Deletions by Analysis of Genetic Markers in Pedigrees
Abstract : A deletion is defined as a missing piece of a chromosome, ranging in size from as small as a single base pair to as much as an entire arm of a chromosome. Deletions can cause diseases, but may also have a neutral effect in the genome. READ MORE

5. Controlling DNA compaction and the interaction with model biomembranes
Abstract : The studies described in this thesis forms part of a larger collaborative project, Neonuclei, with the objective to design a module for packaging the negatively charged DNA into a ”neonucleus” with transcription competence. There are many applications that require control of DNA compaction, i.e. packaging or condensation. READ MORE
