  1. 11. THE USE OF ALTERNATIVE NORMALIZATION APPROACHES TO UNDERSTAND CHANGES IN SARS-CoV-2 CONCENTRATIONS IN WASTEWATER

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Frida Isaksson; [2022]
    Keywords : wastewater-based epidemiology; SARS-CoV-2; normalization; population estimates; pepper mild mottle virus; clinical cases; infiltration inflow;

    Abstract : Following the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA fragments in wastewater in March 2020, the use of wastewater-based epidemiology is rapidly emerging as a non-invasive approach to assessing community wide COVID-19 prevalence. Wastewater-based epidemiology is promoted as a complement to clinical testing in terms of improving public health authorities’ preparedness and supporting them in taking required interventions to protect the public health.

  2. 12. The role of P25 interacting transcriptional regulator VIP1 in activation of transcription.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Asma Kanon Hashi; [2022]
    Keywords : Rhizomania; BNYVV; expression clones; virulence factor P25; transcription; transient gene expression; VIP1 plant protein;

    Abstract : Rhizomania, caused by beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV), has been considered as an economically important disease around the world because of the extreme reduction in sugar beet yield and sugar content in affected plants. The spread of rhizomania all over the world, including the emergence of resistance- breaking virus isolates, have been become a major concern for the plant pathologists and plant breeders aiming at improving sugar beet resistance to   BNYVV as well as better understanding sugar beet-virus interactions during disease development.

    Abstract : Biological pharmaceuticals are the answer to many severe diseases of today’s society. Some of these are protein-based drugs and can be produced from human blood plasma. In order to guarantee the safety of patients, absence of any pathogens needs to be ensured. READ MORE

  4. 14. Safety and Stability of Samples Stored on Filter Paper for Molecular Arbovirus Diagnosis

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Emelie Bringeland; [2021]
    Keywords : Arthropod-borne viruses arboviruses ; alphaviruses; flaviviruses; dengue virus DENV ; Japanese encephalitis virus JEV ; Tick-borne encephalitis virus TBEV ; Usutu virus USUV ; Zika virus ZIKV ; Flinders Technology Associates™ card FTA ; Biosafety; Vietnam;

    Abstract : Expanding urbanization, climate change, and population growth contribute to increased transmission and spread of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses), many of which cause severe disease in humans. Pathogenic arboviruses include dengue, Zika, tick-borne encephalitis, and sindbis viruses, which together threaten more than half the global population. READ MORE

  5. 15. Drug repositioning of protease inhibitors in combinational therapy as a treatment forCOVID-19

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Author : Max Malmberg; [2021]
    Keywords : COVID-19; protease inhibitor; combinational treatment;

    Abstract : There is currently no standardized treatment of COVID-19. Despite several vaccines being deployed, the need for an effective treatment in hospitalized patients is heavily sought after. READ MORE
