  1. 1. Nesting and migration in the introduced Canada goose in Sweden

    Författare :Göran Sjöberg; Catherine M. Lessells; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Species introductions; DNA fingerprinting; natal dispersal; breeding dispersal; bird migration; wintering areas; clutch size; laying date; body reserves; nest defence; waterfowl; Canada goose; Anatidae; Branta canadensis;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the thesis was to document patterns in breeding and migration in Swedish Canada geese Branta canadensis, to explain these against the genetic and historical background of the population, and to test predictions of hypotheses pertaining to parental investment.The Canada goose population in Sweden was founded by the introduction of a few individuals in the 1930's.

  3. 2. Detection and epidemiologic subtyping of Legionella pneumophilia using DNA-based molecular methods

    Författare :Sverker Bernander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Legionella; AFLP; PFGE; Nested PCR; lag-1; hospital; outbreaks;

    Sammanfattning : Legionella pneumophila causes 2 - 6 % of hospitalised pneumonia cases. Several community- and hospital-acquired outbreaks have been reported over the years. Legionnaires' disease (LD) or legionellosis is also a frequent cause of pneumonia amongst travellers. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Estonia

    Författare :Annika Krüüner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Tuberculosis; Estonia; M. tuberculosis; drug resistance; MDR-TB; Beijing genotype; cross-resistance; kanamycin; amikacin; rrs mutations; 16S rRNA; exposure; nosocomial transmission; mycobacterial persistence; re-infection; DST; second-line drugs; Bactec; 460; DNA fingerprinting; spoligotyping;

    Sammanfattning : Tuberculosis (TB) infection and disease patterns among different populations are extremely heterogeneous. This thesis explores mainly by microbiological methods the epidemiology of TB in Estonia. Through the work high rates of drug resistance were found. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Health Promoting Effects of Bioactive Peptides in Milk - Studies on Cultured Normal Cells and Cancer Cells

    Författare :Catja Freiburghaus; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the bioactive peptides lactoferricin and ubiquitin and findings suggesting that they have ability to modify the risk of cancer. It is known that components in bovine milk may improve human health and modify the risk of diseases. Examples of such compounds are bioactive peptides, i.e. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Influence of Escherichia coli feedstock properties on the performance of primary protein purification

    Författare :Mattias Råvik; Andres Veide; Åsa Emmer; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Downstream processing; cell surface properties; surface plasmon resonance; contact angle measurements; microelectrophoresis; aqueous two-phase partitioning; filtration; EBA adsorbents; high-pressure homogenisation; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract The aim of the present study was to increase the understanding of how the cell surface properties affect the performance of unit operations used in primary protein purification. In particular, the purpose was to develop, set up and apply methods for studies of cell surface properties and cell interactions. LÄS MER
