  1. 11. Genetic characterization of a Ragdoll family affected by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Emma Nääs; [2023]
    Keywords : Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; Ragdoll; Genetics; Myosin binding protein C3; Myosin heavy chain 7; Cardiac troponin T; Alstrom syndrome protein 1;

    Abstract : Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common cardiac disease among felines, resulting in myocardial hypertrophy and subsequent decreased cardiac function. Consequently, cats may develop congestive heart failure and/or arterial thromboembolism. The disease is inherited and various mutations in sarcomeric genes have been associated with feline HCM.

  2. 12. Comparison of manual and semi-automatic RNA extraction methods using two-tailed RT-qPCR for absolute quantification as part of the sepsis diagnosis research

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Elia Callado Prat; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Nowadays, sepsis has become a major healthcare problem. Its variance of symptoms and the lack of time to act makes it greatly difficult to treat. An early diagnosis using biomarkers, particularly miRNA, could potentially increase the patient’s prognosis as well as reduce the use of antibiotics for the treatment. READ MORE

  3. 13. Developing saddleback and emperor tamarin SNP set for in situ genotyping

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för ekologi och genetik; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Samantha López Clinton; [2022]
    Keywords : SNP genotyping; GT-Seq; conservation genomics; saddleback tamarin; emperor tamarin; Genotipado por SNPs; GT-seq; genómica para la conservación; pichico común; pichico emperador;

    Abstract : Many countries in the global south - which harbour the majority of the world’s biodiversity - face serious resource limitations and a lack of access to affordable sequencing services. Furthermore, biodiversity research and monitoring of non-model, threatened and/or cryptic species often relies on low-quality non-invasive genetic samples. READ MORE

  4. 14. 16S Nanopore sequencing of Lactobacillus spp. in Apis mellifera, and investigation of their bacteriocin activity

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Simon Kjellman; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Apis mellifera is the most common honeybee species in the world. In recent years, there have been several reports of declines in wild, and domesticated populations. Central to honeybee health are the mutualistic relationships they have with their intestinal microbiome. READ MORE

  5. 15. Lactobacillus spp. in honey bees of southwestern Sweden : A feasible gut-analysis via long-read 16S nanopore sequencing

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Erik Xinxo; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Together with other pollinating animals, honeybees maintain an ecological stability and pollinate both wild and cultivated plants, contributing to the preservation of natural ecosystems and overall security of food production. Unfortunately, honeybees across the world are dying at a dramatic rate, which is very dangerous for the biosecurity of this planet. READ MORE
