Extracellular glutathione peroxidase (eGSHPx) is a selenoprotein catalysing the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, organic peroxides and lipid peroxides in the presence of glutathione. A scaled-up purification procedure for obtaining eGSHPx from human plasma was established based on ammonium sulphate fractionation, hydrophobic interaction chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography and gel chromatogr

Multiple sphere formations are studied for Reynolds numbers of 100 − 300 in order to better understand the hydrodyanmical interaction among spheres. Spheres placed in tandem, diagonal as well as cluster formations including 3–5 spheres are investigated using a conventional finite difference method where the Volume of Solid (VOS) method is used to represent the spherical particles. The results show

Methodologies and legislative frameworks regarding the archaeological excavation, retrieval, analysis, curation and potential reburial of human skeletal remains differ throughout the world. As work forces have become increasingly mobile and international research collaborations are steadily increasing, the need for a more comprehensive understanding of different national research traditions, metho

Popular Abstract in Swedish De två studier som presenterats i föreliggande avhandling avser att belysa sambandet mellan den administrativa organisationen av skolan och rektors möjligheter att leda den pedagogiska verksamheten.

An excretory antennal gland, composed of only eight cells, is found entirely in the limb in the mystacocarid Derocheilocaris typica. The end sac is composed of podocytes, valve cells and cap cells. The podocytes contain enormous residual vesicles. There are few pedicel complexes, and they arise directly from the cell surface without intermediate foot processes. The excretory duct is entirely lined
