  1. 16. Sensitive Detection of Blood Biomarker Pentraxin 3 – Development and Comparison of Amperometric and Capacitive Biosensors in Flow-Injection Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : Viktor Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Bioanalysis; Pentraxin 3; PTX3; FIA; Flow-injection analysis; Sepis; Electopolymerization; Self-assembling monolayer; Amperometry; Capacitance; Biotechnology; Medicine and Health Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Within clinical diagnostics there is always a need for innovative methods that are rapid, sensitive, and more accurate. In this study two bioanalytical systems have been evaluated for pentraxin 3 (PTX3) detection. READ MORE

  3. 17. Serum TK1 activity and SAA concentration as biomarkers to differentiate lymphoma from gastrointestinal disease in cats

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Amanda Friman; [2023]
    Keywords : lymphoma; gastrointestinal lymphoma; feline lymphoma; inflammatory bowel disease; IBD; thymidine kinase 1; TK1; biomarker; cancer; cats;

    Abstract : Alimentary lymphoma is one of the most common malignant neoplasms in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract in cats. Since the clinical signs often are identical to those of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and the findings on diagnostic imaging and endoscopic mucosal biopsies overlap, invasive biopsy sampling from the GI tract is needed to be able to differentiate these two diseases from each other.

  4. 18. Implementation of an automatic tangential flow filtration system for latex immunoassay production

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Filippa Stolpe; Sofia Kullander; [2023]
    Keywords : biotechnology; bioprocess; diagnostics; production; TFF; tangential flow filtration; blood clots; automation; antibodies; latex immunoassay; LIA;

    Abstract : To diagnose patients suffering from blood clotting disorders latex immununoassays (LIA) can be used. A time consuming manual tangential flow filtration (TFF) process suggests the implementation of an automatic TFF system to improve the efficiency, profitability, and expandability of the production facility of LIA at Nordic Biomarker.

  5. 19. Profiling the Blood Proteome in Autoimmune Disease Using Proximity Extension Assay

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Julia Asp; [2023]
    Keywords : Plasma proteomics; proximity extension assay; autoimmune disease; differential expression; machine learning; biomarkers; Plasma proteomik; proximity extension assay; autoimmuna sjukdomar; differentiellt proteinuttryck; maskininlärning; biomarkörer;

    Abstract : Autoimmuna sjukdomar är en samling komplexa, kroniska, inflammatoriska sjukdomstillstånd som kännetecknas av dysreglering av immunsystemet, vilket resulterar i inflammation och skada av vävnader, celler och organ. Dessa sjukdomar har en betydande inverkan på individens livskvalitet och bidrar ofta till ökad dödsrisk där komorbiditeter föreligger. READ MORE

  6. 20. Comparison and optimization of extracellular vesicle (EV) capturing on functional thin films for their molecular profiling

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Prattakorn Metem; [2023]
    Keywords : extracellular vesicle; plasmonic nanohole array; atomic force microscopy; fluorescence analysis; extracellulära vesiklar; nanohålsuppsättning; atomkraftsmikroskopi; fluorescensanalys;

    Abstract : Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer encapsulated nanoparticles which have emerged as an excellent source of biomarkers for multiple diseases, including cancer. However, they are highly heterogeneous in their molecular compositions which remains a major challenge hindering the utilization of their biomarker potential. READ MORE
