  1. 6. Quantitative detection of bacterial DNA in whole blood in bloodstream infection

    Författare :Ingrid Ziegler; Kristoffer Strålin; Paula Mölling; Magnus Rasmussen; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bloodstream infection; bacteremia; sepsis; DNA load; quantitative PCR; droplet digital PCR; 16S rDNA;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to increase the knowledge on how quantitative PCR can be used in the diagnostics of bloodstream infections, with an emphasis on quantitative elements.In Papers I and II, we evaluated quantitative data from two commercial PCR tests for pathogen detection directly in blood, Magicplex Sepsis (I) and SeptiFast (II), from patients with suspected sepsis.

  3. 7. Telomeric DNA in Chironomus, a naturally telomerase-free system

    Författare :Monika Rosén; Udo Häckers grupp Utvecklingsbiologi i invertebrater; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Chironomus; extrachromosomal telomeric repeats; RNA-DNA complex; 3´overhang; telocentric chromosome end; Telomere; complex repeats; Biologi; Genetics; cytogenetics; Genetik; cytogenetik;

    Sammanfattning : Telomeres are specialized complexes of DNA and associated proteins that protect the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. Although most organisms have short repeated DNA sequences at their telomeres, which are specified and maintained by the enzyme telomerase, there are a few exceptions. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Methods and applications in DNA sequence alignments

    Författare :Ellen Sherwood; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :DNA sequence alignment; CNV; Chicken; Trypanosoma cruzi.;

    Sammanfattning : DNA sequence alignment is one of the most common bioinformatics tasks. Alignment analysis for eukaryotic genomes is challenging because the datasets are large. Repeat sequences also make the analysis difficult. This thesis describes new methods which we have developed for DNA sequence alignment that address these problems. LÄS MER

  5. 9. DNA precursor asymmetries, Mismatch Repair and their effect on mutation specificity

    Författare :Robert Buckland; Andrei Chabes; Juan Méndez; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; DNA Replication Fidelity; Mutations; dNTP pools; Mismatch Repair; Checkpoint; Ribonucleotide Reductase; Msh2; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : In order to build any structure, a good supply of materials, accurate workers and quality control are needed. This is even the case when constructing DNA, the so-called “Code of Life.” For a species to continue to exist, this DNA code must be copied with incredibly high accuracy when each and every cell replicates.

  7. 10. High-performance liquid chromatography for analysis of 32P-postlabeled DNA adducts

    Författare :Magnus Zeisig; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :DNA adducts; 32P-postlabeling; HPLC; method development;

    Sammanfattning : The formation of DNA adducts, i.e. the covalent binding of chemicals and chemical groups to DNA, is believed to be an important step in chemical carciogenesis. DNA adducts are usually formed at very low levels which requires very sensitive methods to analyze them. LÄS MER
