21. C4b-binding protein: Identification of binding sites and a possible function of the interaction with protein S
Sammanfattning : The subject of this thesis is plasma protein C4b-binding protein (C4BP). C4BP is an important regulator of the classical pathway of the complement system, a cascade-like system comprised of over 35 proteins, which partakes in the defence against micro-organisms and is involved of clearance of immune-complexes and apoptotic cells.

22. Applications of multi-component condensations and development of polyamine synthesis on solid-phase
Sammanfattning : Solid-phase synthesis of small non-polymeric molecules has become increasingly important as a tool in the development of pharmacologically active compounds. Of particular interest are the syntheses of compounds with low molecular weight, low polarity and a reduced flexibility of the functional groups, i.e. LÄS MER
23. Apolipoprotein M – Studies of Structure and Function
Sammanfattning : Apolipoprotein M (apoM), a 25 kDa plasma protein, is found in all major lipoprotein classes, although the majority is found in high density lipoproteins (HDL). ApoM has been suggested to be involved in the formation of and adding to the antiatherogenic functions of HDL, but its function is still not completely known. LÄS MER
24. Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry : Exploring the Limits of Different Sample Preparation Strategies
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes two different sample preparation strategies for inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES), and their ability regarding multi element quantification in complex samples. Sensitivity, repeatability, reproducibility and accuracy were investigated. LÄS MER
25. Vanadate and Peroxovanadate Complexes of Biomedical Relevance : A speciation approach with focus on diabetes
Sammanfattning : Diabetes mellitus is one of the most threatening epidemics of modern times with rapidly increasing incidence. Vanadium and peroxovanadium compounds have been shown to exert insulin–like actions and, in contrast to insulin, are orally applicable. However, problems with side–effects and toxicity remain. LÄS MER
