  1. 6. In vitro and in vivo studies of salivary films at solid/liquid interfaces

    Författare :Ida Svendsen; Malmö högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; saliva; proteins; adsorption; ellipsometry; gel electrophoresis;

    Sammanfattning : A conditioning film, the pellicle, of which many salivary proteins areimportant constituents, covers the surfaces present in the mouth. The pellicleforms in a selective adsorption process, and it has protective and lubricatingfunctions as well as an influence on the adherence of oral microbes thatultimately leads to the development of dental plaque.

  2. 7. Body composition of parents and their infants : methodological, anthropometric, metabolic and genetic studies

    Författare :Pontus Henriksson; Elisabet Forsum; Marie Löf; Jonathan Wells; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Body composition in infancy may be of importance for later health. In particular, infant body composition may be relevant regarding obesity risk in childhood. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Lactobacillus characterization and effects on oral biofilm composition

    Författare :Nelly Romani Vestman; Ingegerd Johansson; Jukka Meurman; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lactobacillus; L. gasseri; probiotic traits; oral biofilm; breastfeeding; oral microbiota; odontologi; Odontology;

    Sammanfattning : The human body is home for millions of bacteria. The largest microbial community is located in the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract, including the oral cavity with >700 identified taxa. Lactobacillus, which is normal inhabitant of the GI tract, contributes to health by possible biofilm and immune modulation. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Fermented probiotic beverage based on quinoa : Functionality, hygiene, and health effects

    Författare :Pamela Rosario Canaviri Paz; Avdelningen för livsmedel och läkemedel; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Quinoa grains; Fermentation; Lactic acid bacteria; Probiotics; Food safety; Starter culture; Polyphenol compounds; Microbiota composition; Functional food; Gut microbiota;

    Sammanfattning : White quinoa grains were used as a source of novel beneficial microorganisms and as a matrix for development of a fermented plant-based drink. Studies on the quinoa grain microbiota were performed by applying spontaneous fermentation to allow isolation of autochthonous Lactiplantibacillus strains with potential to be used as starter cultures.

  5. 10. Immune cell composition and cytokine expression in the pregnant and non-pregnant uterus

    Författare :Ylva Crona Guterstam; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The success of implantation and further development of the embryo is heavily dependent on the endometrial immune cell composition and its ability to communicate with fetal semi-allogeneic trophoblast cells. Although our understanding of the immune cell population in the uterus has improved, its precise role in normal reproduction and reproductive disorders is still not fully resolved. LÄS MER
