Popular Abstract in Swedish Människans kropp består av celler som byggs upp av komponenter som DNA, proteiner, lipider och polysackarider. I DNA finns den genetiska informationen lagrad som gör att kroppen kan fungera. Informationen i DNA omvandlas till proteiner som deltager i cellens biokemiska processer. DNA finns i olika former, dels genomiskt DNA och dels en mindre cirkulär form som kallas plThe main scope of this thesis has been to study and develop new purification methods and also to further develop existing methods for purification to enhance their efficacy. Important parameters in the development of the methods are that they should be suitable for scale-up and possible to be integrated into recovery processes. The studies in this thesis describe that a hydrophobic peptide tag ca

There is an increasing consensus that individual adaptive capacities are critical to successfully adapt to climate change and achieve sustainable development. However, little is known about adaptive practices, particularly in developed countries. Against this background, this paper investigates the strategies used by Swedish citizens to adapt to (changing) climatic variability and extremes. It off

The article discusses the role of intuition for insight. Creativity provides heuristic solutions to problems that are intractable if approached in standard, algorithmic ways. Intuition is claimed to occur during the incubation phase (Wallas 1926) and to crucially depend on embodied memory and unconscious processing of memories, such as reconstruction and recreation. Two suggestions as to how memor

The stereotypes about older adults and the incomplete picture that emerges when such persons are described in terms of properties and a characteristic derived from ageing is one motivation for defining the status of older users. The other key motivation is that the elderly are just one user-group among others so that the perspective on how technology is used may or may not tell us something about

We report a virtual Compton scattering study of the proton at low c.m. energies. We have determined the structure functions PLL–PTT/and PLT, and the electric and magnetic generalized polarizabilities (GPs) E(Q2) and M(Q2) at momentum transfer Q2=0.92 and 1.76 GeV2. The electric GP shows a strong falloff with Q2, and its global behavior does not follow a simple dipole form. The magnetic GP shows a

Abstract in Norwegian Moderne transplantasjonsteknologi har gjort menneskekroppen til en handelsvare. Den svenske etnologen Susanne Lundin har i mange år studert den internasjonale organhandelens uhyggelige og lukkede verden. I denne thrilleraktige reportasjeboken tar hun leseren med inn i en verden befolket av fortvilede vestlige pasienter som vil gjøre hva som helst for å skaffe seg for eksempe
