The existing information supports the use of this material as described in this safety assessment. Butyl lactate was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity/photoallergenicity, skin sensitization, and environmental safety. Data from read-across analog ethyl (L)-lactate (CAS # 687-47-8) show that butyl lactate is not expec
Modern integrated circuits (ICs) contain thousands of instruments to enable testing, tuning, monitoring, and so on. These on-chip instruments must be accessed through the ICs’ life- time. However, when ICs are mounted on Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), access from system-level is challenged due to complex system hierarchies with a multitude of interfaces. In this paper we enable access from system-
Modern integrated circuits (ICs) include thousands of on-chip instruments to ensure that specifications are met and maintained. Scalable and flexible access to these instruments is offered by reconfigurable scan networks (RSNs), e.g. IEEE Std. 1687. As RSNs themselves can become faulty, there is a need to exclude and bypass faulty parts so that remaining instruments can be used. To avoid keeping t
Climate warming has significantly advanced plant spring phenology in temperate and boreal biomes in the northern hemisphere. However, the response of subtropical forest phenology to climate change remains largely unclear. This study aimed to determine the spatiotemporal patterns of spring photosynthetic phenology in subtropical forests in China over the period 2002-2017 and explore its underlying
Submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) is one of the main producers in inland lakes. Tracking the temporal and spatial changes in SAV is crucial for the identification of state changes in lacustrine ecosystems, such as changes in light, nutrients, and temperature. However, the available SAV classification algorithms based on remote sensing are highly dependent on field survey data and/or human interve
This thesis is devoted to the understanding, application, and extension of coherent lensless imaging methods for microscopy purposes. Particular attention is given to the Fourier transform holography and coherent diffractive imaging methods.These two methods share several properties such as the ability for singleshot imaging and their experimental geometries, but differ greatly in their reconstruc
In recent years, the traditional gender gap in educational attainment in favor of men has been reversed in many countries. This development may have far-reaching consequences for the family, challenging traditional patterns of union formation and potentially affecting marriage and fertility outcomes. I study the implications of the female advantage in education on family formation through changes
Phase retrieval is a numerical procedure concerned with the recovery of a complex-valued signal from measurements of its amplitude. We describe a generalization of this method for multi-wavelength data acquired in a coherent diffractive imaging experiment. It exploits the wavelength-dependent scaling of the support domain to recover separate reconstructions for each wavelength, providing new possi
BACKGROUND: Lung transplant (LTx) recipients are at increased risk for airway infections, but the cause of infection is often difficult to establish with traditional culture-based techniques. The objectives of the study was to compare the airway microbiome in LTx patients with and without ongoing airway infection and identify differences in their microbiome composition.METHODS: LTx recipients were
The overarching trend in mitochondrial genome evolution is functional streamlining coupled with gene loss; therefore, gene acquisition by mitochondria is considered to be exceedingly rare. Selfish elements in the form of self-splicing introns occur in many organellar genomes, but the wider diversity of selfish elements, and how they persist in the DNA of organelles, has not been explored. In the m
This presentation aims to discuss aspects of the fitting room situation from two theoretical perspectives; communities of practice and the ambiguity of touch (touching, being touched). The theoretical frame is intertwined with reflections form my own practice as designer/maker/educator/researcher and from discussions/interviews with colleagues and students from different disciplines at The Danish
