1. Biomolecular interactions at model interfaces : a self-assembled monolayer approach
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis has been to explore the use of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) in model studies of biomolecular binding at interfaces. Molecular details of interfaces are difficult to address experimentally, and in spite of the fact that interactions in the living system commonly occur at interfaces, e.g. LÄS MER
2. Significance of molecular genetic alterations and apoptosis in colorectal cancer
Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer is a serious health problem in Western societies. In Sweden it is the second most common malignancy among females, and the third in males, and the third leading cause of cancer related death in both sexes. To date it is known that several biological pathways can lead to colorectal cancer. LÄS MER

The study is set within a context of social change in terms of urbanization as well as the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. LÄS MER
4. Energy systems analysis of Swedish pulp and paper industries from a regional cooperation perspective : Case study modeling and optimization
Sammanfattning : The industrial sector uses about one third of the energy end-use in the world. Since energy use in many cases highly affects both the local and global environment negatively, it is of common interest to increase energy efficiency within industries. LÄS MER
5. Biodegradable gelatin microcarriers in tissue engineering : In vitro studies on cartilage and bone
Sammanfattning : Tissue engineering is a multidisciplinary field that combines cells, biomaterial scaffolds and environmental factors to achieve functional tissue repair. This thesis focuses on the use of macroporous gelatin microcarriers as scaffolds in tissue engineering applications, with a special focus on cartilage and bone formation by human adult cells in vitro.
