To address the flammability issues limiting polymer applications, phosphorus-containing flame retardants have received increasing attention as halogen-free alternatives. In this study, two phosphorus-containing methacrylate monomers, diphenylphosphinyl methacrylate (DPMA, +1 oxidation state, P–Ph bond) and diphenylphosphoryloxy methacrylate (DPOMA, +5 oxidation state, P–O–C bond), were synthesized
Globally, road traffic accidents (RTAs) remain a major cause of death, particularly among individuals aged 15–30 years. While Sweden has been at the forefront of traffic safety through the Vision Zero initiative, in-hospital management remains crucial in determining RTA outcomes. Drawing on North American evidence suggesting improved survival at trauma centres, the Swedish healthcare system has in
Ultrafiltration (UF), a widely utilised membrane-based process used in the dairy industry, is crucial for standardising milk constituents, especially proteins. However, depending on the filtration set-up, the extent of the physicochemical properties of the concentrate can be modulated. This study compares the impacts of two UF configurations, cross-flow (CF-UF) and dead-end (DE-UF), on the mineral
This study explores the potential for stormwater reuse to reduce potable water consumption for toilet flushing and laundry. A pilot project utilizing silicon carbide (SiC) membranes in Lund achieved significant reductions in contaminants, with permeate meeting EU standards for non-potable applications.A permanent (SiC) membrane installation in Malmö demonstrated a 38% reduction in potable water us
Human hands can perform far more gestures than the number of muscles controlling them, as most gestures result from coordinated combinations of muscle activations and relaxations. This complexity poses a key challenge for human-machine interfaces performing gesture classification based on electromyography (EMG). Rather than identifying all conceivable gestures, it may be simpler to instead identif
Introduction:Fava beans are becoming an increasingly popular and viable crop, offering a nutritious option for innovative plant-based food products. Despite their potential, fava beans remain underutilized in the food industry, with their primary use still being as animal feed [1]. However, fava beans are an interesting base material for producing plant-based milk alternatives. While soy milk curr
En mångårig tradition håller på att gå förlorad. Varför räddas inte den lokala sillen? Etnologen Håkan Jönsson skriver om fisken som byggt vårt landskap.
I en tid när bilder och videor dominerar sociala medieflöden har visuellt material blivit ett av de mest kraftfulla verktygen för att sprida desinformation. Rapporten Bildkunnighet och beredskap visar hur detta skifte förändrar både informationsmiljön och demokratiska förutsättningar. Med generativ AI blir det allt enklare att skapa verklighetstrogna, men helt fabricerade, bilder och filmer vilket
Spermine, a pivotal player in biomolecular condensation and diverse cellular processes, has emerged as a focus of investigation in aging, neurodegeneration, and other diseases. Despite its significance, the mechanistic details of spermine remain incompletely understood. Here, we describe the distinct modulation by spermine on Alzheimer’s Tau and Parkinson’s α-synuclein, elucidating their condensat
Background: Self-rated health (SRH) is an international measure and indicator of mortality and morbidity that can be used as a mortality predictor in adulthood. This study aimed to examine the status of SRH among adults in Qazvin Province and its relationship with physical activity levels and demographic factors in primary care centers. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. We included data fr
The abundance and star formation histories of satellites of Milky Way (MW)-like galaxies are linked to their hosts' assembly histories. To explore this connection, we use the PARADIGM suite of zoom-in hydrodynamical simulations of MW-mass haloes, evolving the same initial conditions spanning various halo assembly histories with the VINTERGATAN and IllustrisTNG models. Our VINTERGATAN simulations o
