Molecular analysis of Streptococcus pyogenes and its interactions with the human host

Popular Abstract in Swedish De flesta bakterier lever i harmoni med människan, på huden och på olika slemhinnor framför allt i mag-tarmkanalen. Cellerna på dessa ytorna utgör ett effektivt skydd mot sjukdomsalstrande bakterier. Ibland bryts emellertid försvarsbarriären och bakterierna kan få tillgång till delar av kroppen som normalt är sterila. De är försvarade av fagocyter, ätarceller, som omsluStreptococcus pyogenes causes infections only in humans, from trivial tonsillitis to life-threatening conditions. One of its most important virulence factors is the M-like protein family conferring resistance to phagocytosis to the bacterium. The M-like proteins are surface exposed rod-like molecules attached to the cell wall. Each strain of S. pyogenes expresses unique M-like proteins that bind t

Quantum and Ballistic Nanodevices

In this thesis, electron transport in quantum and ballistic devices was studied. The devices studied here were quantum wires, planar quantum dots, ballistic rectifiers, artificial functional materials, and three-terminal ballistic junctions. The possible application of such devices in the future nanoelectronics was also investigated. In an electron waveguide, with an abrupt change in the geometry

Enzymatic hydrolysis coupled to hot water extraction for determination of flavonoids in plants

Popular Abstract in Swedish I Sverige produceras dagligen flera ton biprodukter avfall inom jordbruks-, livsmedels- och skogsindustrierna. Detta avfall förbränns, komposteras och går till biogasproduktion samt i vissa fall till djurfoder. Intressanta avfallsgrupper ur ett svenskt perspektiv är lök- morots-, och potatis avfall från jordbruk- och livsmedelsindustrin och bark från skogsindustrin. DesThe word sustainability is more and more frequently used within the field of chemistry and in many other fields. Green or sustainable chemistry was introduced during the 90 ́s as a field of chemistry where the environmental and health impacts of processes and products are evaluated and improved. Within analytical chemistry the awareness of sustainability has also increased, which has resulted in o
