    Keywords : SLC38A1; SNAT1; SLC38A2; SNAT2; SLC38A3; SNAT3; SLC38A4; SNAT4; SLC38A5; SNAT5; SLC38A6; SNAT6; SLC38A7; SNAT7; SLC38A8; SNAT8; SLC38A9; SNAT9; SLC38A10; SNAT10; SLC38A11; SNAT11; SLC; SLC38; SNATs; SNAT; RT-qPCR; GABA; glutamine; glutamate;

    Abstract : Solute carriers consist of over 400 genes and 66 subfamilies and are the largest group of membrane bound transporters. They facilitate movement of many molecules through cells and organelles and are crucial for upholding many key functions in the human body. They are also involved in the pathophysiology of several diseases. READ MORE

    Abstract : With the growing demand of compact radio transmitters, so do the need for silent and efficient thermal management systems. Given the restricted form-factor, ensuring robustness of a unit with a detachable fan tray imposes a challenge. READ MORE

  4. 3. Consequences of using Quantitative Risk Assessment as a verification tool

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Joey Öström; [2022]
    Keywords : Quantitative Risk Assessment; QRA; performance-based design; verification tool; performance solution; performance requirements; fire risk assessment; residential building; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : What are the consequences of using Quantitative risk assessment (QRA) as a verification tool? Performance-based building codes differ from prescriptive-based codes in that they define specific objectives to be met, enabling the building designer to choose which solution to use so long it meets the objectives. This master’s thesis explores the consequences of using QRA as a verification tool in comparison to existing verification methods currently in use in Australia. READ MORE

  6. 5. Expression and Purification of Recombinant Human S100A8 and S100A9 for Characterization of Their Roles as Danger Signals

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Author : Rebecca Trang; [2015]
    Keywords : S100A9; DAMP; RAGE; TLR4; applied biochemistry; tillämpad biokemi; S100A8; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The direct involvement of S100 calcium-binding proteins A8 (S100A8) and A9 (S100A9) in numerous human diseases have been discovered more than 20 years ago, and they have ever since emerged as a very potent biomarker. Increased levels of S100A8 and S100A9 have been found in inflammation and various cancers. READ MORE
