11. Conceptual Runoff Models for Material Transport Estimations
Sammanfattning : Catchment-scale material transport models are today important tools for water and environmental management. However, modelling of material transport is extremely complex due to the physical, chemical and biological processes involved. LÄS MER
12. Riverine nitrogen : Analysis and modelling under Nordic conditions
Sammanfattning : The Baltic Sea in northern Europe is a brackish water body where eutrophication is considered a serious problem, partly as a result of high nitrogen load from rivers. This thesis includes statistical analysis of nitrogen behaviour in 55 small catchments. The results were used for further development of a dynamic model (HBV-N). LÄS MER
13. Improving immunogenicity of hepatitis B and C viral proteins for vaccine design
Sammanfattning : The hepatitis B and C virus (HBV, HCV) both presents a global health challenge, with an estimated 350 million individuals chronically infected with HBV and over 200 million infected with HCV. Reported cases of HBV and HCV have declined significantly due to screening of blood products and the availability of HBV vaccination. LÄS MER
14. The hepatitis B virus – Insights into genetic variability, evolution and Bayesian phylogeographic inference
Sammanfattning : In terms of genome size, the hepatitis B virus is the smallest virus known to infect humans and its compactness with multiple overlapping reading frames puts restraints on the emergence of mutations. In the papers included in this thesis we aimed to investigate genetic variation within the precore and core promoter region and to describe the origin, spread and diversification of HBV genotype A.

15. Characterisation of the interaction between the Hepatitis B virus core antigen and B cells
Sammanfattning : The Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major cause of severe human liver disease globally. There are around 350 million persistent HBV carriers with a risk of development of liver disease including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. LÄS MER
