När astmatikers luftvägar exponeras för kvalster försämras immunresponsen vilket kan leda till ett nedsatt immunförsvar. Personer med förkylningsastma kan då lättare drabbas av sekundära virus- och bakterieinfektioner. Studiens resultat tyder på att astmatiker bör undvika kvalster och att de patienter som dessutom är allergiska mot kvalster bör överväga att genomgå så kallad hyposensibilisering, m

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Ett nytt antikroppstest vid covid-19 som utvecklats av forskare vid Lunds universitet har visat hög prestanda i kliniska tester och tillämpning. Antikropparna som mäts är kopplade till det så kallade spikeproteinet (S-protein) hos SARS-CoV-2-viruset som orsakar covid-19. Testet visar på 15 minuter om en person haft

When fish from different habitats meet, it’s not always love at first swim. New research from Lund University in Sweden in collaboration with North Carolina State University shows that aggressive females can actively repel males from the “wrong” environment. This behaviour may ultimately contribute to the emergence of new species. Understanding how species evolve is one of the most fundamental que

An international study led from Lund University in Sweden shows that 30 per cent of the energy in a certain type of light-absorbing iron molecule disappears in a previously unknown manner. By closing this loophole, the researchers hope to contribute to the development of more efficient solar cells using this iron-base

The most common analytical method within population genetics is deeply flawed, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. This may have led to incorrect results and misconceptions about ethnicity and genetic relationships. The method has been used in hundreds of thousands of studies, affecting results within medical genetics and even commercial ancestry tests. The study is published
