  3. 2. The Examination of Alternative Methods for Sperm Cell Lysis and Purification of Sexual Assault Samples

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Emilie Boson; [2023]
    Keywords : Differential lysis; Differential extraction; Sexual assault samples; Sperm cells; Forensic; DNA recovery; DNA profiling; DNA purification; Applied microbiology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Forensic sexual assault samples typically contain a mixture of a small quantity of sperm cells and a high quantity of epithelial cells. This relationship complicates the generation of a DNA profile, which prompts the need for differential lysis and extraction of the DNA. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluating targeted combination therapies in EGFR wild-type non-small-cell lung cancer using mass spectrometry-based proteomics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för immunteknologi

    Author : Johan Thorsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Survival for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has been significantly improved by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with EGFR mutations. However, certain subpopulations of NSCLC patients with EGFR wild-type (wt) status have been shown to also respond to EGFR-TKIs. READ MORE
