De-Centering Federal Origins: India and the Contested Appropriation of Federal Democracy

The chapter explores conceptions during the early twentieth century regarding the required and desired underpinnings of a post-imperial India – one in which both British India and the indirectly ruled princely states were first, by the British, proposed and then, through the work of the Indian Constituent Assembly, made to constitute a federation. It specifically enquires into India’s federal orig

Quizar, guider och filmer − exempel på digitala lärobjekt och samarbetsmöjligheter kring e-lärande

I Lunds universitets handlingsplan för utveckling av e-lärande vid Lunds universitet 2016-18 beskrivs det som ett universitetsgemensamt mål att ”verka för en ökad användning av e-lärandeoch digitalt stöd för undervisning och examination [...]”.Under våren 2016 tillsattes en arbetsgrupp1 vid Lunds universitets bibliotek som hade tilluppgift att bland annat inventera bibliotekens arbete i digitala l

Comparison of a new digital KM screen test with conventional Hess and Lees screen tests in the mapping of ocular deviations

PURPOSE: To evaluate the digital KM screen computerized ocular motility test and to compare it with conventional nondigital techniques using the Hess and Lees screens.METHODS: Patients with known ocular deviations and a visual acuity of at least 20/100 underwent testing using the digital KM screen and the Hess and Lees screen tests. The examination duration, the subjectively perceived difficulty,

Inflammation leads to distinct populations of extracellular vesicles from microglia

BackgroundActivated microglia play an essential role in inflammatory responses elicited in the central nervous system (CNS). Microglia-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) are suggested to be involved in propagation of inflammatory signals and in the modulation of cell-to-cell communication. However, there is a lack of knowledge on the regulation of EVs and how this in turn facilitates the communi

Flow immunochemical bio-recognition detection for the determination of interleukin-10 in cell samples

On- and off-line heterogeneous non-competitive flow immunoassays for the determination of Interleukin-10 are described. The sample containing IL-10 is mixed, either on-line in a reaction coil or off-line in a test tube, with fluorescent labelled anti-IL-10 antibodies to form an antibody-antigen complex. The labelled unbound antibodies are trapped on an immobilized IL-10 column whereas the IL-10-an

Implementation of a protein profiling platform developed as an academic-pharmaceutical industry collaborative effort

As much attention has devoted to the proteome research during the last few years, biomarker discovery has become an increasingly hot area, potentially enabling the development of new assays for diagnosis and prognosis of severe diseases. This is the field of research interest where efforts originating from both academic and industrial groups should jointly work on solutions. In this paper, we woul

On-line coupling of microdialysis sampling with liquid chromatography for the determination of peptide and non-peptide leukotrienes

An automated on-line sampling method was developed using microdialysis as the simultaneous sampling and sample pre-treatment technique. The extraction fraction values of microdialysis probes sampling different eicosanoids were investigated. The impact of cyclodextrins in the perfusion liquid used for sampling hydrophobic eicosanoids in biological systems was also studied. The total time for one an

Development of an offline noncompetitive flow immunoassay for the determination of interleukin-8 in cell samples

A noncompetitive flow immunoassay system (FIA) for the analysis of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in cell samples was developed. Affinity interaction assays based on offline incubation of excess labeled antibodies and antigen (IL-8) were carried out. The residual unbound labeled antibody was trapped in an immunoaffinity column with immobilized IL-8 while the immunocomplex, labeled antibody/IL-8, was detecte

General and specific contextual effects in multilevel regression analyses and their paradoxical relationship : A conceptual tutorial

To be relevant for public health, a context (e.g., neighborhood, school, hospital) should influence or affect the health status of the individuals included in it. The greater the influence of the shared context, the higher the correlation of subject outcomes within that context is likely to be. This intra-context or intra-class correlation is of substantive interest and has been used to quantify t

Distinctive peri-luminal presence of agrin in murine and human carotid atherosclerotic plaques

The clinical consequences of arterial atherosclerotic lesions depend, apart from their size, on their composition of cellular and extracellular components. While an intact endothelium at the interface of atherosclerotic plaques towards the blood can prevent its erosion, underlying smooth muscle cells within the plaque can reduce the risk of plaque ruptures, due to the deposition of stabilizing ext
