  1. 1. Vaccine development during a pandemic : A case study of an academic research group in Sweden and their vaccine(s) against SARS-CoV-2

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kulturantropologi och etnologi

    Author : Anna Tarnovskaya; [2023]
    Keywords : vaccine development; COVID-19; discursive practices; situational analysis; grounded theory; DNA vaccine;

    Abstract : This ethnographic study examines the multiple ways in which a vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 disease and infection is known in an academic research group in Sweden. This academic research group has been working to develop a vaccine since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020. READ MORE

  3. 2. Production and validation of anti-HCV antibodies for viral neutralization

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Megan Olga García Mark; [2020]
    Keywords : Cloning; antibody; infection; HCV; IgG production; molecular biology; cell factory; plasmid design; immunology;

    Abstract : Hepatitis-C Virus (HCV) remains the leading cause of liver transplant in the US and the UK, and the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 71 million people are infected worldwide. A vaccine would drastically impact the healthcare-associated burdens that HCV causes globally. READ MORE

  4. 3. CUSTOMIZED QUANTIFICATION OF HOST CELL PROTEIN WITH BIO-LAYER INTERFEROMETRY

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Eva Sjöblom; [2020]
    Keywords : BLI; HCP; CHO; yeast; host cell protein; bio-layer interferometry; immunoassays; quantification; chinese hamster ovary; ELISA; applied microbiology; teknisk mikrobiologi; Biology and Life Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Host cell protein (HCP) is quantified in the purification steps of biopharmaceutical production and is part of ensuring the purity of the final drug product. The gold standard method for HCP quantification is enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), but a new approach is proposed here with fully customized bio-layer interferometry assays for yeast and chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells.

  5. 4. Rule-based machine learning for prediction of Macaca mulatta SIV-vaccination outcome using transcriptome profiles

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Author : Anna Postovskaya; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : One of the reasons, why the development of an effective HIV vaccine remains challenging, is the lack of understanding of potential vaccination-induced protection mechanisms. In the present study, Rhesus Macaques (Macaca mulatta) gene expression profiles obtained during vaccination with promising candidate vaccines against Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) were processed with a rule-based supervised machine learning approach to analyze the effects of vaccine combination treatment.

  6. 5. Streptococcus equi subsp. equi : en jämförelse av provtagnings- och analysmetoder

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

    Author : Hanna Jönsson; [2017]
    Keywords : Streptococcus equi subsp. equi; kvarka; PCR; bakteriell odling; ELISA; diagnostiering;

    Abstract : Kvarka är en allvarlig, smittsam mukopurulent luftvägssjukdom som orsakas av bakterien Streptococcus equi subsp. equi. För att förhindra smittspridning är det viktigt att snabbt identifiera eventuellt smittade hästar. Denna litteraturstudie fokuserar på vilka provtagnings- och analysmetoder som är att föredra vid misstanke om kvarka. READ MORE
