    Abstract : There is a need for harmonisation of stability study designs of monoclonal antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are widely used in treatments for various diseases. Like all drugs, their quality must be verified through stability studies. READ MORE

  4. 8. Implementation and verification of a quantitative MRI method for creating and evaluating synthetic MR images

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Author : Aleksander Blagoiev; [2020]
    Keywords : MRI; Quantitative MRI; Synthetic MRI;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis was to implement and quantitatively test a quantitative MRI (qMRI) method, from which synthetic MR images are created and also evaluated. The parameter maps of T1, T2*, and effective proton density (PD*) were tested with reference tubes containing different relaxation times, and concentrations of water (H2O) and heavy water (D2O).

  5. 9. PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BOVINE MEAT AND MILK FACTOR VESICLES/PARTICLES & IDENTIFICATION OF MSBI1 REP INTERACTING PROTEINS

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

    Author : Farhana Manzoor; [2020]
    Keywords : Bovine meat and milk factors; multiple sclerosis; immunoprecipitation co-immunoprecipitation; protein dimers; mass spectrometry; immunodetection; cesium chloride density gradient centrifugation; sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; vesicle; particle; interaction partner; pull-down assay.;

    Abstract : Introduction: Bovine meat and milk factors (BMMF) frequently isolated from bovine meat and milk, are discussed as putative causative agents for breast, colon and possibly other cancers. The hypothesis was formulated based on earlier correlative studies indicating that BMMFs could indirectly trigger inflammation, accumulate mutational events via reactive oxygen and nitrogen species production which eventually provokes tumor formation.
