1. Population History and Non-invasive Monitoring : Use of low copy number DNA in Conservation Genetics
Sammanfattning : Conservation genetics research is increasingly becoming an integrated part of the management of small and endangered populations. In this thesis I developed tools for genetic analysis of low copy number sources of DNA, such as old teeth from museum specimens as well as field-collected faeces and urine. LÄS MER
2. Conservation Genetics of Scandinavian Wolverines
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, genetic methods for individual identification and sex determination of wolverines from non-invasive samples were developed and applied in genetic monitoring of Scandinavian wolverine populations. Paternity and mating system of wolverines were studied by combining genetic analysis with telemetry data. LÄS MER
3. In vivo bioluminescence imaging in preclinical trials of genetic vaccines
Sammanfattning : DNA immunization is a rapidly developing vaccine platform for cancer, infectious disease, and allergies. The efficiency of DNA vaccination is largely determined by the efficiency of delivery and subsequent expression of the HIV-1 genes in the cells. LÄS MER
4. In vivo bioluminescence imaging in preclinical trials of genetic vaccines
Sammanfattning : DNA immunization is a rapidly developing vaccine platform for infectious diseases, cancer and allergies. The efficiency of DNA vaccination is largely determined by the efficiency of delivery and subsequent expression of genes encoding microbial and tumor antigens or allergens in the cells of vaccine recipients.

5. Studies of immune responses to cell surface proteins of Helicobacter pylori and Borrelia burgdorferi by enzyme immunoassay and immunoblotting
Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori and Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. can cause chronic infections by evading the immune system. These two human pathogens express a number of immunogenic cell surface proteins. LÄS MER
