1. Causes and consequences of individual variation in energy turnover rates
Sammanfattning : Individual energy turnover rates can vary remarkably, even within a species. In this thesis I study the causes and consequences of this pronounced variation and show that individual energy turnover rates can be affected by a large number of factors. LÄS MER
2. Parental and embryonic behaviours in precocial birds
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with behaviours during reproduction in precocial birds, both from the perspective of the female and of the embryos. Female pheasants in good physical condition laid larger eggs and produced a higher proportion of daughters than females in poor condition. LÄS MER
3. Human papillomavirus and cervical carcinoma in situ : implications for future screening
Sammanfattning : The principal aim of this thesis was to study the temporal relationship between human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV 16) infection and cervical carcinoma in situ, particularly focusing on the effect of viral load. Other aims were to study the role of additional factors, especially smoking and oral contraceptive use, in cervical carcinogenesis. LÄS MER
4. Studies on Polysaccharides from some Gram-Negative Bacteria
Sammanfattning : In this survey structural studies on some polysaccharides isolated from the families of Enterobachteriaceae (Klebsiella and Salmonella) and Parvobacteriaceae (Yersinia) will be discussed. The occurence of some rare or not earlier reported deoxysugars is demonstrated, namely, 6-deoxy-D-manno-heptose, 3-deoxy-L-glycero-pentulosonic acid and five of the isomers of 3,6-dideoxy-hexoses.

5. Reproductive performance of farmed Arctic charr
Sammanfattning : The production of farmed Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) has increased rapidly over the last decade, and the industry is predicted to continue to grow in the coming years. One major bottleneck for this future expansion concerns the supply of viable eggs and juveniles. LÄS MER
