Retroutopier : Transmediale og CTM 2013
Under årets kallaste tid värmdes Berlin av två särpräglade festivaler: Transmediale och CTM (tidigare Club Transmediale). Elektroniska events, mystiska maskiner och forna framtidsdrömmar var centrala utgångspunkter i det täta programmet. En del magplask till trots, bjöd festivalen också i år på enastående upplevelser och intressanta reflektioner.

The complement inhibitor factor H generates an anti-inflammatory and tolerogenic state in monocyte-derived dendritic cells
The activation of the complement system is a key initiating step in the protective innate immune-inflammatory response against injury, although it may also cause harm if left unchecked. The structurally related soluble complement inhibitors C4b-binding protein (C4BP) and factor H (FH) exert a tight regulation of the classical/lectin and alternative pathways of complement activation, respectively,
Family counts : deciding when to murder among the Icelandic Vikings
In small scale societies, lethal attacks on another individual usually invite revenge by the victim's family. We might expect those who perpetrate such attacks to do so only when their own support network (mainly family) is larger than that of the potential victim so as to minimise the risk of retaliation. Using data from Icelandic family sagas, we show that this prediction holds whether we consid

An EU Strategy for relations with Iran after the nuclear deal
This report outlines the potential for a more structured and strategic relationship between the European Union and the Islamic Republic of Iran following the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). To both address areas of disagreement and complaints, as well as pursue common interests and matters of mutual benefit, the EU needs to put in place an institutional framework that can withstand the

“Just trained to be a chef, not a leader:” A Study of Head Chefs ́ Practices
Hierarchical manners and taxing work complicate the picture of the restaurant industry, a sector in great need of personnel. There is little scientific research on daily work in restaurants. Through interviews and observations in restaurant kitchens, three head chef practices were detected: “Master the materiality” is a stipulation for leading kitchens, but does not imply leadership aspirations; “
Getting the picture of home lighting: Adding participant photography to the interview
This paper draws attention to the potential benefits of using photographs in combination with interviews, that is to say photo elicitation. As defined by Harper (2002), photo elicitation is “based on the simple idea of inserting a photograph into a research interview” (p. 13). The photographs can be taken by the researcher or the participant to evoke comments. If participants are asked to produce

The effect of high post-mortem temperature on the development of pale, soft and exudative pork : Interaction with ultimate pH
The effects of post-mortem temperature and ultimate pH (pHu, 24 h post mortem) on the development of the pale, soft and exudative (PSE) characteristics in pig longissimus dorsi muscle were studied. Ten out of the 13 pigs used received pre-slaughter injections of adrenaline in order to deplete muscle glycogen stores. The two muscles from each pig were held at 12 or 35°C during rigor mortis developm
Inefficiency of bilateral amygdaloid lesions to reduce the transient motor reactions exhibited by swine during exposure to CO2
The aim of the study was to evaluate from the ethical point of view the importance of transient muscular jerks commonly exhibited by swine at an early stage of pre‐slaughter CO2 anaesthesia. The influence of 5 min restraint upon plasma concentrations of adrenaline (A) and noradrenaline (NA) was studied in swine (n= 6) before and after bilateral lesioning of the amygdaloid region of the brain, as w
Effect of time between adrenaline injection and slaughter on the rate and extent of post-mortem metabolism in porcine skeletal muscle
The aim of this work was to study the effect of time between adrenaline injection and slaughter on the rate and extent of post-mortem metabolism in pig muscle. Five pigs were subcutaneously injected with adrenaline (0·3 mg/kg) or with a saline solution 4 h, 1 h or 15 min prior to slaughter. pH1, pHu and FOPu were measured in Longissimus dorsi (LD) and Biceps femoris (BF) muscles. m.LD samples were
Aldosterone secretion during acute respiratory acidosis and NH4CI‐induced metabolic acidosis in the goat
Acute respiratory acidosis was induced in goats by inhalation of 6% or 8% CO2 in air for 30 min. The lower CO2 concentration caused a significant rise in plasma Cortisol (PC), but had no appreciable influence upon plasma aldosterone (PA), and did not affect the arterial blood pressure (aBP). A more pronounced PC response was observed in association with the inhalation of 8% CO2, but also here with
