  1. 1. Clinical applications of acoustophoresis in blood based diagnostics

    Författare :Klara Petersson; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Acoustophoresis; Acoustofluidics; Ultrasound; Microfluidics; Blood; Blood Separation; Blood plasma; Lab-on-a-chip; Point-of-care; Blood diagnostics;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, acoustofluidics has been used to process blood samples as a sample preparation step prior to biomarker detection. This is often required as the large amount of blood cells otherwise can interfere with the detection method. Acoustofluidics means moving particles or cells with acoustic forces within microfluidic channels. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Optimisation of diagnostic PCR a study of PCR inhibitors in blood and sample pretreatment

    Författare :Waleed Abu Al-Soud; Avdelningen för medicinsk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mycology; virology; bacteriology; Microbiology; AmpliTaq Gold; Amplification facilitators; Betaine; Blood culture medium; Blood; BSA; cheese; faeces; gp32; Haemoglobin; Ions; Immunoglobulin G; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : PCR is widely employed as a rapid, sensitive and specific molecular diagnostic technique in clinical diagnosis, environmental investigations and for monitoring biotechnical processes. However, the full potential of diagnostic PCR is limited, in part, by the presence of PCR-inhibitory substances in biological samples. LÄS MER

  4. 3. On-line Sample Pretreatment Based on Membrane Enrichment, Mainly Using Supported Liquid Membranes, for Chromatographic Analysis

    Författare :Yin Shen; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biological Sample; Environmental Sample; Capillary Gas Chromatography; Ion Chromatography; Automation; Sample Pretreatment; Enrichment; Membrane; Extraction; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The main objective of this work was to construct practical analytical systems for the analysis of environmental and biological samples, using membrane-based techniques for sample pretreatment and chromatography for final analysis. Two types of membrane processes have been applied, with emphasis on automation. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Microfluidic bases sample preparation for blood stream infections

    Författare :Sahar Ardabili; Aman Russom; Mats Nilsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sample-preparation; microfluidics; sepsis; size-based separation; selective cell-lysis; immune-based isolation; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Microfluidics promises to re-shape the current health-care system by transferring diagnostic tools from central laboratories to close vicinity of the patient (point-of-care). One of the most important operational steps in any diagnostic platform is sample preparation, which is the main subject in this thesis. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Preanalytical errors in hospitals : implications for quality improvement of blood sample collection

    Författare :Olof Wallin; Christine Brulin; Kjell Grankvist; Johan Hultdin; Bethany van Guelpen; Ania Willman; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; medical errors; preanalytical; quality improvement; questionnaire; venous blood sampling; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Most errors in the venous blood testing process are preanalytical, i.e. they occur before the sample reaches the laboratory. Unlike the laboratory analysis, the preanalytical phase involves several error-prone manual tasks not easily avoided with technological solutions. LÄS MER
