Biosensor-based Methods for Detection of Microcystins as Early Warning Systems

Popular Abstract in English Global invasion of our precious watercourses by cyanobacteria poses great threat to human- and animal health by deteriorating water systems. In fact, this problem is not likely to be solved in the near future as cyanobacteria are associated with pollution of waterways. Consequently, water sources are subject to contamination by natural toxins produced by abundant growthCyanobacteria blooms are a water menace since they produce potent toxins that have been implicated in poisonings and deaths of humans and animals after consumption or contact with cyanotoxin-contaminated water. Of particular concern are cyanotoxins called microcystins, which are hepatotoxic cyclic peptides known to promote development of liver tumors in humans and animals. The high toxicity and in

European Level Developments of Flexible Learning Models within Geographical Information Science (GIS) for Vocational Training

Leonardo da Vinci Community Vocational Training Action Programme’s pilot project within Geographical Information Science (GIS), should be implemented over a three year period, 2002-2005. The main objectives of the project is to establish co-operation between European Universities and GIS user organisations and to develop modularised courses intended for Internet based learning, establish links of

Echocardiography/Doppler for the evaluation of coronary artery function, left ventricular function and the relationship between early diastolic and systolic function

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ultraljudundersökning av hjärtat (ekokardiografi) har under det senaste decenniet fått en alltmer framträdande roll i diagnostiken av hjärtsjukdomar och används ofta för att vägleda medicinska beslut inom hjärtsjukvården. Ekokardiografi är av central betydelse framförallt vid undersökning av vänsterkammarens pumpförmåga (systoliska funktion) och hjärtklaffarnas funktionTwo specific areas of development in echocardiography are assessment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function and myocardial ischemia. This thesis describes echocardiographic methodology in these two areas. In the first study, two new echocardiographic methods, the early diastolic flow propagation velocity (Vp) and the early diastolic atrioventricular plane downward slope (EDS), were tested as
