Immunoglobulin-binding bacterial surface proteins; biomedical tools and virulence factors

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Antikroppar, även kallade immunoglobuliner, är proteiner som utgör en viktig del i vårt försvar mot infektioner genom att de kan binda och neutralisera ämnen som uppfattas som främmande, t ex bakterier, virus eller produkter som produceras av dessa organismer. Antikropparna består av en antigen-bindande variabel del som binder till deMany bacteria express immunoglobulin(Ig)-binding proteins that interact with Ig in a non-immune manner. Several of these Ig-binding bacterial proteins have been well characterized and are widely used as reagents for analysis and purification of Ig's. Protein G found on group C and G streptococci has affinity for constant regions of IgG heavy chains, whereas protein L found on Peptostreptococcus ma

Introducing a Clinically Applicable Ultrasound Method for the Study of Gastric Emptying in Health and Disease. A Study in Healthy Subjects and Patients with Diabetes Mellitus

Popular Abstract in Swedish Störd magsäcksfunktion är en vanligt förekommande komplikation bland den snabbt tilltagande populationen av diabetiker i världen, också inkluderande andra patient grupper så som de många patienter med diffusa besvär från magen (funktionell dyspepsi). Fördröjd magsäckstömning (gastropares) kan dels leda till en rad obehagliga symtom förknippade med födointaget (tidig mätAbnormal gastric motor function, a frequent complication among the increasing diabetic population of the world, also includes other patient groups such as those many patients with functional dyspepsia. These facts stress the need for a reliable, safe, cost-effective, and simple technique for measuring gastric emptying. To date the ultrasound technique for measuring gastric emptying has been regard

Evacuation experiments in a smoke filled tunnel

Evacuation experiments were performed to investigate the walking speed and the behaviour in smoke filled road tunnels. Three types of wayguidance systems, namely flashing lights, rows of flashing lights and floor markings, were tested in the experiments. A thermal imaging infrared camera was used to observe human behaviour during evacuation. The results show a relationship between the walking spee

Neuroendocrine Mediators in Prostate Cancer Progression

Recent years have seen a number of exciting developments in the evolving and expanding role of somatostatin and its analog, octreotide, in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. It is now clear that octreotide has potential applications not just in imaging, but also in medical therapy and radiotherapy. This book contains the papers from a symposium held in September 2001 in Noordwijk in The Nether

Social sårbarhet utifrån ett medborgarperspektiv.

När extraordinära händelser inträffar, handlar de akuta insatserna för de drabbade om livräddning och akutsjukvård. Annan praktisk hjälp t.ex. att åtgärda vattenförsörjning och återställa infrastruktur ingår i kommunernas och andra myndigheters insatser. Sedan slutet av 1980-talet har även det psykologiska och sociala stödet uppmärksammats. I samband med s.k. Kistaolyckan 1988, då skolelever dog i

Quality of life, Motivation and Costs in Multidisciplinary Rehabilitation. A prospective controlled two-year study in patients with prolonged musculoskeletal disorders

Popular Abstract in Swedish Livskvalitet, motivation och kostnader vid rehabilitering av patienter med långvariga muskuloskeletala besvär Långvariga muskuloskeletala besvär är ett omfattande medicinskt, socialt och ekonomiskt problem i utvecklade länder. Syftet med avhandlingen var att utvärdera ett multidisciplinärt rehabiliteringsprogram som fokuserade på Basal Kroppskännedom och kognitiv och Prolonged musculoskeletal disorders (PMSD) is an escalating medical, social and cost problem in developed countries. The complexity of PMSDs has emphasised the need of developing effective multidisciplinary rehabilitation programme with a holistic approach. The aim of the thesis was to evaluate the outcome of a multidisciplinary rehabilitation programme focusing on Body Awareness Therapy and cogn

Analysing e-business models

The business model concept is becoming increasingly popular within e-businesses and e-business research. However, the concept is often used relatively independently from theory, meaning model components and their interrelations are relatively obscure. This paper analysis three e-business models taxonomies based on a generic business model, which include customers and competitors, the offering, act

The Bentonite Barrier - Swelling Properties, Redox Chemistry and Mineral Evolution

Popular Abstract in Swedish I Sverige produceras en stor del av elektriciteten i kärnkraftverk och som restprodukt får man ett mycket farligt radioaktivt avfall som måste isoleras från människor i hundratusentals till miljoner år. Svensk Kärnbränslehantering AB (SKB) har i uppdrag att ta hand om detta avfall och har utvecklat metoden KBS-3. I denna placeras det använda kärnbränslet i en kopparkapsBentonite is planned for use as a buffer material in high-level radioactive waste repositories, where safety assessment is performed for very long periods (100-1000 ka). This thesis focuses on the swelling of smectites in liquid water, and analysis of bentonite from field experiments at Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory, Sweden. Four field experiments were analyzed (Alternative Buffer Material experiment,
