  1. 1. On-chip Ultrasonic Sample Preparation

    Författare :Ida Sadat Iranmanesh; Martin Viklund; Johan Nilsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ultrasound; Sample preparation; Particle manipulation; Fysik; Physics; Biological Physics; Biologisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Acoustofluidics has become a well-established technology in the lab-on-a-chip scientific community. The technology involves primarily the manipulation of fluids and/or particles in microfluidic systems. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Efficient strategies for collecting posture data using observation and direct measurement

    Författare :Per Liv; Svend Erik Mathiassen; Marina Heiden; Leif Nilsson; Ingvar Bergdahl; Stephen Bao; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Exposure assessment; arm elevation; exposure variability; variance components; random effects model; precision; bias; sample size; sample allocation; calibration; bootstrapping; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin;

    Sammanfattning : Relationships between occupational physical exposures and risks of contracting musculoskeletal disorders are still not well understood; exposure-response relationships are scarce in the musculoskeletal epidemiology literature, and many epidemiological studies, including intervention studies, fail to reach conclusive results. Insufficient exposure assessment has been pointed out as a possible explanation for this deficiency. LÄS MER

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Essays on Sample Surveys : Design and Estimation

    Författare :Edgar Bueno; Per Gösta Andersson; Maria Giovanna Ranalli; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GREG estimator; mixture distribution; probability proportional to size sampling; sampling algorithms; sampling design; sampling strategy; survey sampling; stratified sampling; Statistics; statistik;

    Sammanfattning : Sampling is a core stage in every survey. A sampling design carefully elaborated may imply not only a more accurate estimation of the parameters of interest, but also a reduction in the required sample size in a study. In this thesis we consider two particular but connected subjects. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Comparative network analysis of human cancer: sparse graphical models with modular constraints and sample size correction

    Författare :José Sánchez; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inverse covariance matrix; precision matrix; graphical models; high-dimension; low-sample; networks; sparsity; fused lasso; elastic net; cancer.; fused lasso;

    Sammanfattning : In the study of transcriptional data for different groups (e.g. cancer types) it's reasonable to assume that some dependencies between genes on a transcriptional or genetic variants level are common across groups. Also, that this property is preserved locally, thus defining a modular structure in the model networks. LÄS MER
