Background: Magnetic resonance (MR) safety procedures are designed to allow patients, research subjects and personnel to enter the MR-scanner room under controlled conditions and without the risk to be harmed during the examination. Ferromagnetic objects in the MR-environment or inside the human body represent the main safety risks potentially leading to human injuries. Screening for MR-safety ris

A method for analysing and comparing treatment planning system (TPS) data and ferrous dosimeter gel measurements evaluated with MRI (FeMRI) was developed, including image processing to final absorbed dose images. Measurements were analysed according to this method and FeMRI data were thereby compared with the TPS-calculated dose distribution. For photons, differences between FeMRI- and TPS dose da

The dominating local and regional sources of gaseous and particulate air pollution in the city of Lund (69,000 inhabitants) in southern Sweden were characterized using a combination of aerosol and gas-phase monitoring techniques. Twelve-hour samples were taken at two stations of both fine and coarse fraction urban aerosols with a stacked filter unit during the four-week measurement campaign in Mar

We have developed a novel allele-specific primer elongation protocol using a DNA polymerase on oligonucleotide chips. Oligonucleotide primers carrying polymorphic sites at their free 3'end were covalently bound to glass slides. The generation of single-stranded targets of genomic DNA containing single nuclotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to be typed was achieved by an asymmetric PCR reaction or exonucle

In this work, simple microcontact printed gold-wafers were used to make a lectin panel for investigation and discrimination of different meat juices from fresh meat of cattle, chicken, pig, cod, turkey and lamb. Seven different lectins were thus attached to gold surfaces using the streptavidin–biotin method. Lectins recognize and bind specifically to carbohydrate structures present on different pr

In this work, inverse diffusion equation and Monte Carlo methods are used in conjunction with diffuse reflectance spectroscopy to develop a protocol for evaluating the chromophore compositions of tissue mimicking liquid phantoms. A novel two spectrometer system is used which provides real time calibration of any intensity fluctuations of the light source. The calibration of this setup is investiga

Methods have been developed for the preparation of suspensions of viable rat pancreatic islet cells and their analysis and sorting in the fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS III or IV). Histograms of cell number versus light scattering in a near forward angle (1-15 degrees) demonstrated that viable islet cells produce a broad peak that is distinctly separated from the peaks generated by exocr

Hydraulic balancing is key to ensure proper operation of the heating system. When the heating system is not hydraulically balanced, heat is unevenly distributed across dwellings resulting in a wide temperature spread, overheating, and consequently, wastage of energy. In this paper, we study to which extent hydraulic imbalance affects the thermal energy demand of buildings. Furthermore, key variabl

Background., Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a common cause of sudden death in children. In this study, we aimed to identify clinical measures for stratification of this risk in childhood. Patients and methods: By means of a retrospective cohort study from six regional centres of paediatric cardiology, we identified 128 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy presenting below 19 years of age, wit

We have previously identified a locus on mouse chromosome 15 (eae2) that regulates susceptibility to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in a cross between the susceptible strain B10.RIII and the resistant strain RIIIS/J. In an effort to verify the protective effect from having two RIIIS/J alleles at eae2, the resistant locus was bred into the susceptible strain in homozygous form. However,

This thesis concerns itself with the possibility that parental descriptions of psychological abuse by an intimate partner are viewed as less severe than claims of physical abuse by social workers involved in custody disputes. Swedish parents (N = 32) with experience of custody disputes were asked to write narratives describing incidents of psychological and physical abuse - abuse by their partner
