Amphorae from Caronia and Caronia Marina, Provincia di Messina, Sicily – Thin-Section analyses

The Amphorae was a common container for transportation of especially liquid goods in the Greco-Roman world. There are several known production sites of these vessels around the Mediterranean. The shapes of the different amphorae have been amply described and grouped according to different systems. There has also been several works describing the fabric of the vessels and also attempts to link vess

The Design and Structure Prediction of Protein Oligomers

Popular Abstract in English Proteins are a class of biological macromolecules that perform countless fundamental and diverse functions in living organisms. Chemically speaking, they are polymers built out of monomeric units called amino acids. All biological proteins are constructed out of 20 different amino-acid types. To form protein molecules, amino acids are linked together in a linear chain lThe minimum free energy state of a protein (the native state) is encoded by its amino-acid sequence. Due to the many torsional degrees of freedom (DOF) available to a polypeptide chain, a vast number of conformations is possible. Therefore, to predict the native state of a protein directly from sequence, a computer algorithm must evaluate a large number of possible conformations using accurate sco

Biotechnological treatment of chlorophenol-contaminated water

Widespread presence of toxic and persistent pollutants in the environment, even at low concentrations, causes risks of adverse effects to human health and the ecosystem. Biological methods for treatment of water streams and removal of persistent pollutants are of great interest due to their simplicity, low cost, and mild operational conditions without harmful by-products. The purpose of this resea

Because we can - eHealth encounters New Public Management in Swedish Healthcare

Since November 2012 all citizens in Uppsala County in Sweden have access to their medical record on the internet sight “my health contacts”. This is the first step in a EU deployment- project where a total of 12 different eHealth services will be launched over time. The IT director of the county has engaged himself in the idea of medical records and other eHealth services since 1997 and has had se

Does reduced heat production during mild whole body cooling override increased heat generation by pre-shivering muscle tension?

INTRODUCTION Preshivering thermogenesis (developing muscle tension) may not be noticed in static situations due to reduced metabolism under mild body cooling. This paper describes the observations of metabolic and heart rate changes under mild body cooling. METHODS Eight men participated in the study. The subjects were dressed in shorts, socks and shoes, and were seated. The air temperature (32 °C
