    Sammanfattning : Biodiversity is the prerequisite for well-functioning ecosystem services that are crucial, like clean water and clean air. Invasive alien species (IAS) are a serious and long-term issue that is actively threatening the genetic diversity within ecosystems. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Genetic Data Privacy and Consumer Choice Behavior: An Exploratory Study on Direct-To-Consumer Genetic Testing

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

    Författare :Inês Raeiro; Xuexin Li; [2023-07-03]
    Nyckelord :consumer privacy; privacy calculus theory; trust; genetic data privacy; direct-to-consumer genetic testing; consumer choice behavior;

    Sammanfattning : The rapid growth of the Direct-to-Consumer Genetic Testing (DTC-GT) industry has raised significant concerns regarding the collection, storage, and use of highly sensitive genetic information. This study aims to address the existing research gaps by examining consumer privacy and choice behavior in the context of DTC-GT. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Evaluating the Accuracy of Chloride Meters, The ChloroChek instrument in Sweat Testing for Cystic Fibrosis

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Författare :Hawa Abshir; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Pilocarpine iontophoresis; coulometric titration; CFTR-mutations; salt consumption and sweat storage.;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a hereditary disorder caused by genetic mutations, which affect the chloride ion channels, leading to disrupted salt balance in different organs. A lack of properly functioning chloride ion channels can lead to formation of thick mucus, which hinders organ function, especially in the lungs where repeated inflammation occurs. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Implementing and comparing challengers to popular multi-objective algorithms for unit test cases generation

    Kandidat-uppsats, Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för programvaruteknik

    Författare :Elias Lindfors; [2023]
    Nyckelord :multi-objective; evosuite; genetic; algorithm;

    Sammanfattning : The topic of multi-objective algorithms has been researched for many years, where hundreds of multi-objective algorithms have been developed. With the field of search-based software engineering attracting use-cases, more research on which algorithms are fitting the area is still lacking. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Care and the Potential of Genetic Counseling: A Clinical Fieldwork

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sociologiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Socialantropologi

    Författare :Frederik Jacques Paulsen; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Medical anthropology; genetics; care; telecare; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Recent decades have witnessed an innovation in genetics and biomedical practices, shifting the practice from treatment to prevention. Testing healthy individuals for genetic inherited diseases has now become increasingly common, preventing potential disease by offering early screenings, medication, or potentially surgery, reducing the genetic risk from developing into disease.
