  1. 1. A study of the stability of vitamin 25[OH]D2 and 25[OH]D3

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kemi och biomedicin (KOB)

    Author : Anna Kellström; [2020]
    Keywords : Vitamin D; 25-hydroxyvitamin D; pre-analytical relevance; HPLC-MS MS; stable; freeze-thaw cycles; light sensitivity; quality assurance;

    Abstract : During the industrialization of the 19th century the negative health effects of vitamin D was discovered as children in the cities developed osteomalacia or more commonly known as rickets caused by vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D is produced in the skin from 7-dehydrocholesterol during sun-exposure and enhances intestinal phosphor and calcium absorption thus enhancing the bone remodeling process. READ MORE

  3. 2. Panosteit hos hund : möjliga etiologier

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Marie Häggmark; [2017]
    Keywords : hund; panosteit; enostosis; hälta; växande; stora raser; tillväxtrubbning;

    Abstract : Panosteit är en sjukdom som förekommer över stora delar av världen och karakteriseras av intramembranös benbildning i det medullära benet. Sjukdomen drabbar främst växande hundar av stora raser. Schäfrar anses vara predisponerade för sjukdomen och hanhundar drabbas i större utsträckning än tikar. READ MORE

  4. 3. Stressfrakturer hos den elitidrottande hästen : potentiella benmarkörer för diagnos och prevention

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Anna Pettersson; [2015]
    Keywords : katastrofskada; stressfraktur; kapplöpningshäst; elitidrottande häst; fullbod; benmarkör; träning; muskuloskeletal markör; catastrophic bone injury; stress fracture; race horse; equine athlete; Thorughbred; bone marker; exercise; musculoskeletal marker;

    Abstract : Muskuloskeletala skador är ett stort problem hos hästar som tränas och tävlas i kapplöpning, och orsakar smärta med påföljande hälta för individen och ger även ekonomiska förluster inom industrin. Av dessa är stressfrakturer i tredje metakarpalbenet distalt på frambenet vanligast och utgången är ofta katastrofal med avslut på karriären och i vissa fall slakt. READ MORE

  5. 4. TLD Measurements on Patients being treated with a Taylor Spatial Frame : Using Radiation from Na18F PET/CT Studies and from Naturally Occurring Radioisotopes

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Kousha Mirzadeh; [2014]
    Keywords : Taylor Spatial Frame; Thermoluminescent dosimeters; Tibia fracture; Bone remodeling; Na18F; PET CT; Bone seeking radionuclide;

    Abstract : Background: In an ongoing study conducted at Karolinska Institutet & Karolinska University Hospital, Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/Computed Tomography (CT) scans are performed on patients with tibia fractures and deformations treated with Taylor Spatial Frames (TSFs) in order to monitor their bone remodeling progress. Each patients receive an administration of approximately 2 MBq/kg bodyweight of Na18F associated with PET scans on two sessions, six and twelve weeks after the attachment of the TSF. READ MORE

  6. 5. Nutrient Driven Topology Optimization

    University essay from Mekanik

    Author : Ganarupan Satha; [2010]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to investigate how a biological structure changes its shape and boundary under different cases of load if flow of nutrients is included, since nutrient flow has not been taken into account in previous studies. In order to simulate such a scenario we construct a model by using topology optimization (the SIMP model) and a balance law which is suitable for biological structures. READ MORE
