  1. 1. Methods to study device induced aggregation of proteins

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Marie Therese von Wowern; [2023]
    Keywords : protein formulation; protein aggregation; insulin; silicone oil; syringe; shear stress; subvisible particle; size exclusion chromatography; flow imaging microscopy; pharmaceutical technology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This work developed a method for the investigation of how medical devices, such as syringes and needles, affect the formation of subvisible particles in a protein drug without excipients. Protein-based pharmaceuticals are well known to be sensitive to different kinds of stress, and exposure to stress during the use of this device is unavoidable. READ MORE

  3. 2. Synchrotron X-ray Tomography Study of Bone-implant Integration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Ornella Lohéac; [2021]
    Keywords : Bone-implant; Digital volume correlation; Micro-computed tomography; PEEK; Synchrotron; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Implant loosening is a recurring problem in the field of orthopedics, typically resulting in a physical and financial burden for the patient. Proper integration of orthopedic implants within host bones is a fundamental requirement for the successful function and limited risk of failure of implants which, in-vivo, must support various loading conditions.

  4. 3. Developing a web based tool for identification of disease modules

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Emma Persson; [2018]
    Keywords : Modifier;

    Abstract : Complex diseases such as cancer or obesity are thought to be caused by abnormalities in multiple  genes and cannot be derived to one specific location in the genome. It has been shown that  identification of disease associated genes can be made through looking at interaction patterns in a  protein‐protein interaction network, where the disease associated genes are represented in clusters,  or disease modules.

  5. 4. Modifying a Protein-Protein Interaction Identifier with a Topology and Sequence-Order Independent Structural Comparison Method

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Bioinformatik

    Author : Joakim Johansson; [2018]
    Keywords : PPI; Protein-protein interaction; Machine learning; Protein modelling; Structural bioinformatics; Structural alignment; Sequence-order independent;

    Abstract : Using computational methods to identify protein-protein interactions (PPIs) supports experimental techniques by using less time and less resources. Identifying PPIs can be made through a template-based approach that describes how unstudied proteins interact by aligning a common structural template that exists in both interacting proteins.

  6. 5. Food Allergy in Hospital from the Patient Perspective : taking a Mixed Methods approach to understand Foodservice Management

    University essay from Högskolan Kristianstad/Fakulteten för naturvetenskap

    Author : Madeleine Neff; [2018]
    Keywords : food allergy; nutrition; hospital; mixed methods; person centred care;

    Abstract : Foodservice is integral to safe, adequate and satisfactory food allergy management in the hospital setting. To date, research focused on objective measures of energy and protein provision, implementation and evaluation of food allergy guidelines and assessment of process failures leading to allergen exposure.
