Ex-situ manometric activity test for evaluation of mainstream anammox in Moving Bed Biofilm Reactors

Implementing anammox based processes in the mainstream at municipal wastewater treatment plants is challenging and requires carefully constructed control strategies in order to be successful. A method to measure the specific anammox activity was further developed and implemented in the mainstream anammox pilot plant at Sjölunda Wastewater Treatment Plant. The method was found to be reliable and re

Critique of immigration researchers who use Danish racism or whiteness to explain all immigrant problems, or refuse to discuss problems such as social control, domestic violence, honor-shame violence, criminality, radicalization, social marginalization, etc. Not all immigrant problems are caused by racism. Antiracist researchers need more courage.

Building Gender-Just Citizenship in Northern Ireland : Women’s Political Participation and Transversal Politics in a Deeply Divided Society

This thesis analyses women’s public, political participation, cross-community activities, and the potential for transversal citizenship in post-Agreement Northern Ireland through data collected in semi-structured interviews, participant observation and document analysis. The theoretical framework explores how gender, citizenship and ethno-nationalism intersect in deeply divided transitional societ

The role of annexin A1 in Candida albicans and Candida auris infections in murine neutrophils

Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is an anti-inflammatory protein expressed in various cell types, especially macrophages and neutrophils. Because neutrophils play important roles in infections and inflammatory processes and the relationship between AnxA1 and Candida spp. infections is not well-understood, our study examined whether AnxA1 can serve as a target protein for the regulation of the immune response du

Laboratorial Aspects of Cytolytic Vaginosis and Vulvovaginal Candidiasis as a Key for Accurate Diagnosis : A Pilot Study

OBJECTIVE: To identify clinical, microscopic, and biochemical characteristics that differentiate cytolytic vaginosis (CV) from vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC).METHODS: The present cross-sectional study analyzed the vaginal contents of 24 non-pregnant women aged 18 to 42 years who were attended at the Genital Infections Clinic at Centro de Atenção Integral à Saúde da Mulher da Universidade Estadual

Annexin A1 Regulates NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Modifies Lipid Release Profile in Isolated Peritoneal Macrophages

Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is a potent anti-inflammatory protein that downregulates proinflammatory cytokine release. This study evaluated the role of AnxA1 in the regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and lipid release by starch-elicited murine peritoneal macrophages. C57bl/6 wild-type (WT) and AnxA1-null (AnxA1-/-) mice received an intraperitoneal injection of 1.5% starch solution for macrophage r

Daily genital cares of female gynecologists : a descriptive study

INTRODUCTION: Genital hygiene can play an essential role in avoiding vulvovaginal discomfort and preventing infections. The scientific evidence on best practices on genital hygiene is scarce, and without doubt, gynecologists should be the best person to discuss and guide the subject.OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the general genital female gynecologist hygiene.METHODS: This descriptive analytic study identif

Central exclusive production of scalar and pseudoscalar charmonia in the light-front kT -factorization approach

We study exclusive production of scalar χc0χc(0++) and pseudoscalar ηc charmonia states in proton-proton collisions at the LHC energies. The amplitudes for gg→χc0 as well as for gg→ηc mechanisms are derived in the kT-factorization approach. The pp→ppηc reaction is discussed for the first time. We have calculated rapidity, transverse momentum distributions, and such correlation observables as the d

The GALAH survey : A new constraint on cosmological lithium and Galactic lithium evolution from warm dwarf stars

Lithium depletion and enrichment in the cosmos is not yet well understood. To help tighten constraints on stellar and Galactic evolution models, we present the largest high-resolution analysis of Li abundances A(Li) to date, with results for over $100\, 000$ GALAH (Galactic Archeology with HERMES) field stars spanning effective temperatures $5900\, \mathrm{K} \lesssim T_{\mathrm{eff}}\lesssim 7000

Tid, arkeologi och konst : Kulturpelaren i Lund

Time, Archaeology and Art – the Pillar of Culture in Lund. The article is an investigation into how archaeologists and artists may relate to time departing from the so-called “Pillar of Culture” at The Cultural Museum in Lund. The pillar is a six m high stratigraphical section from an excavation in Lund 1913. It was exhibited in 1932 in a context of artifacts from the actual excavation. The pillar

Curation and Reuse : An Experimental Study of Transverse Arrowheads of the Late Scandinavian Mesolithic

This article aims to examine whether it is possible to rework transversearrowheads while still hafted, in order to reuse them. Three series, eachcontaining three arrows, were shot into a target consisting of meat andbone. When possible, the arrowheads were retouched and fired again.The results of the experiments demonstrate that it is possible to reworktransverse arrowheads while they are hafted a

Breastfeeding Initiation and Duration after High Exposure to Perfluoroalkyl Substances through Contaminated Drinking Water: A Cohort Study from Ronneby, Sweden

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The drinking water in parts of Ronneby municipality was heavily contaminated with perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) for decades. Although PFAS has endocrine-disrupting properties and may interfere with breastfeeding, the supporting epidemiologic literature is conflicting and based solely on populations with background levels of exposure. The effects on breastfeeding in populatio
