  1. 1. Nutri-medicinal plants used in the management of HIV/AIDS opportunistic infections in western Uganda : documentation, phytochemistry and bioactivity evaluation

    Författare :Savina Asiimwe; Anna Karin Borg Karlsson; Jasper Ogwal-Okeng; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Ethnobotanical study; Medicinal plants; HIV; AIDS; opportunistic infections; bacteria; fungi; GC-MS; phytochemistry; SPME; antioxidant; histopathology; biochemistry; hematology; western Uganda.; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : As a result of the AIDS epidemic, many people are immunocompromised and opportunistic infections are common. Medicinal plants constitute one of the fundaments of HIV treatment and are commonly used in management of HIV–related ailments, and also to counteract the side effects of antiretroviral therapy.

  2. 2. Purification, Stereoisomeric Analysis and Quantification of Biologically Active Compounds in Extracts from Pine Sawflies, African Butterflies and Orchid Bees

    Författare :Joakim Bång; Erik Hedenström; Kristina Sjödin; Hans-Erik Högberg; Anna-Karin Borg-Karlsson; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Semiochemicals; sex pheromone; pine sawflies; Bicyclus; Euglossa; chiral separation; derivatisation; GC-­MS; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Stereochemistry plays an important role in nature because biologically important molecules such as amino acids, nucleotides and sugars, only exist in enantiomerically pure forms. Semiochemicals carry messages, between the same species (pheromones) and between different species (allelochemicals). LÄS MER

  3. 3. Environmental and health aspects of corrosion– importance of chemical speciation

    Författare :Yolanda Hedberg; Inger Odnevall Wallinder; Anna Karin Borg Karlsson; Susanna Wold; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : During the last decades, the interest in corrosion of metals and alloys from an environmental and health perspective has increased rapidly as a consequence of stricter environmental and human exposure legislations, their extensive use as implant materials and an increasing understanding related to occupational and/or daily exposure to airborne particles. Corrosion-induced metal release, however, needs to be understood in detail and to include knowledge related to chemical speciation, i. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Solid-phase Microextraction and Detection of Organophosphate Triesters in Indoor air

    Författare :Sindra Isetun; Ulrika Nilsson; Anna-Karin Borg-Karlsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SPME; Organophosphate triesters; flame-retardant; indoor air; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : In the work underlying this thesis solid-phase microextraction (SPME) was evaluated as a passive sampling technique for organophosphate triesters in indoor air. These compounds are used on a large scale as flame-retarding and plastizicing additives in a variety of materials and products, and have proven to be common pollutants in indoor air. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Improved techniques for CE-MALDI-MS off-line coupling and MALDI-MS analysis of primarily hydrophobic proteins and peptides

    Författare :Johan Jacksén; Åsa Emmer; Anna Karin/Minna Borg Karlsson/Hakkarainen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Capillary electrophoresis; Hydrophobic peptides; Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Mass Spectrometry; Prestructured target; Off-line interface; Silicon microcanal; Matrix; Protein cleavage digestion.; Kapillärelektrofores; Hydrofoba peptider; Matris-assisterad laserdesorptions-joniserings-masspektrometri; Strukturbelagd provplatta; Off-line interface; Mikrokanal i kisel; Matris; Proteinklyvning -spjälkning.; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the hydrophobic nature of integral membrane proteins (IMP) they give rise to several difficulties concerning handling and analysis, which is not the case for the most water soluble proteins. New analysis methods are needed, where the insolubility problems of the hydrophobic proteins due to aggregation and adhesion are tackled. LÄS MER
