  2. 1. PCR inhibition mechanisms in forensic DNA analysis

    Author : Maja Sidstedt; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PCR inhibition mechanisms; Real-time PCR; Digital PCR; Massively parallel sequencing;

    Abstract : In forensic DNA analysis, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) enables DNAanalysis of minute biological crime scene traces. PCR is an enzymatic reaction for amplification of specific DNA fragments involving both biochemical andbiophysical processes. The main analytical challenge is posed by the nature of the samples of interest. READ MORE

  4. 2. Development of Real-Time PCR Based Methods for Detection of Viruses and Virus Antibodies

    Author : Amal Elfaitouri; Jonas Blomberg; Helene Norder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Microbiology; Real-time PCR; broadly targeted PCR; degenerated PCR; rTth DNA polymerase; thermolabile UNG; QPIA; IgM; Mikrobiologi;

    Abstract : Quantitative real-time PCR (QPCR) technology has been very useful for diagnosis of viral diseases. QPCR has recently reached a level of sensitivity, simplicity, and reproducibility which allows a large number of samples to be screened rapidly, make it a suitable tool for the clinical virology diagnostics.

  5. 3. Genetic Analyses using Rolling Circle or PCR Amplified Padlock Probes

    Author : Johan Banér; Sanjay Tyagi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Molecular medicine; Padlock probes; rolling circle amplification; PCR; genotyping; microarray; expression analysis; Molekylärmedicin; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; Medical Genetics; medicinsk genetik;

    Abstract : Padlock probes are useful in a variety of genetic applications, some of which require that the probes are amplified in order to generate detectable signals. Two general padlock amplification methods, RCA and PCR, are discussed in this thesis. READ MORE

  6. 4. Improved methodologies for molecular detection and quantification of viruses in food

    Author : Sofia Persson; Patrik Ellström; Magnus Simonsson; Wim van der Poel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; foodborne virus; digital PCR; real-time PCR; validation; assay design; food safety; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Foodborne viruses such as norovirus, hepatitis A virus and hepatitis E virus cause a high burden of disease worldwide. Reverse transcription (RT) quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) is the current standard method for monitoring viral contamination in the food chain. READ MORE

  7. 5. Molecular Genetic Studies of the Blood Group ABO Locus in Man

    Author : Martin L Olsson; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chi sequence; recombination; population studies; blood group serology; erythrocyte; blood transfusion; sequencing; DNA; PCR; genomic; Blood group ABO; allele; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : The ABO blood group system is undoubtedly the most important genetic and phenotypic marker in clinical transfusion medicine. The A and B determinants are immunodominant, terminally located carbohydrate residues of glycoconjugates on erythrocytes and other cell surfaces. READ MORE
