1. 1. Allergen-induced late airways reaction in the pig : influence of endogenous and exogenous glucocorticoids

   Författare :Cecilia Fornhem; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Ascaris suum; bronchial circulation; bronchial provocation test; budesonidecortisol; leukotrienes; eosinophil peroxidase; eosinophils; histamine; immunohistochemistry; metyrapone; minipig; myeloperoxidase; neutrophils; pig.;

   Sammanfattning : A novel model for studies of the allergen-induced late reaction in the lower airways was developed in the pig. The influence on late bronchial obstruction and granulocyte function of endogenous cortisol levels and treatment with the glucocorticoid budesonide (BUD) was evaluated. LÄS MER

3. 2. Gastrointestinal parasites in pigs : prevalence, risk factors and control

   Författare :Emelie Pettersson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Gastrointestinal parasites are common in pigs worldwide, and in all production types. Clinical disease is rare and mainly associated with heavy nematode infections, or piglets infected with the coccidia Cystoisospora suis. Subclinical infections are more common and may result in reduced growth and poor feed utilisation. LÄS MER

4. 3. Treatment technologies for human faeces and urine

   Författare :Charles Niwagaba; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis examines simple, cheap, environmentally friendly and resource efficient technologies for the treatment of source-separated human faeces and urine to enable safe recycling of their plant nutrients for plant production in developing countries. Composting of faeces-to-food waste (F:FW) in wet weight mix ratios of 1:0, 3:1 and 1:1 was studied in 78 L reactors insulated by 25 mm styrofoam; and of F:FW in wet volume/weight ratios of 1:0, 1:1 and 1:3 in 216 L reactors insulated by 75 mm styrofoam.

5. 4. Allergen-induced airway reactions in the pig in vivo : inflammatory mediators as targets for asthma therapy

   Författare :Helena Sylvin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : A pig model for studies of allergen-induced airway reactions has previously been developed. These pigs are actively sensitized to Ascaris suum and challenged with this antigen in the airways under anesthesia. LÄS MER

7. 5. The role of nitric oxide in porcine models of asthma and acute lung injury

   Författare :Roelinde Middelveld; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Nitric oxide (NO) is a modulator of many important physiological processes in the body. It is produced endogenously in several cell types by a family of NO synthases (NOS). LÄS MER
