I detta kapitel beskrivs hur man vid Lunds tekniska högskola organiserar kursvärderingar som en del i ett övergripande arbete med rapporterande utvärdering av kurser. Syftet är att bidra med förståelse för hur olika konkreta problem förknippade med genomförandet av ett system för kursvärdering och utvärdering angripits på Lunds tekniska högskola. kapitlet visar också på hur Lunds tekniska högskola

Natural radiative lifetimes of 25 even-parity levels in Gd i (4f(7) 5d(2) 6p, 4f(7)5d6s6p and 4f(8)5d6s configurations) and 13 even-parity levels in Gd it (4f(7)5d6p and 4f(7)6s6p configurations) have been measured using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique in a laser-induced gadolinium plasma. The Gd I and Gd it levels range in energy from 26 866 to 36 395 cm(-1), and 25 960 to

A modular mannanase (Man26A) from the bacterium Cellulomonas fimi contains a mannan-binding module (Man26Abm) that binds to soluble but not to insoluble mannans. Man26Abm does not bind to cellulose, chitin or xylan. The Kd for binding of Man26Abm to locust bean gum (LBG) is ~0.2 μM. Man26A is the first mannanase reported to contain a mannan-binding module.

In this paper a wave splitting technique is applied to a homogeneous Timoshenko beam. The purpose is to obtain a diagonal equation in terms of the split fields. These fields are calculated in the time domain from an appropriate set of boundary conditions. The fields along the beam are represented as a time convolution of Green functions with the excitation. The Green functions do not depend on the

Forskarna Eva-Malin Antoniusson, Arne Kristiansen, Leili Laanemets, Bengt Svensson och Dolf Tops har granskat skriften Sprututbyte – En genomgång av den internationella forskningen och den svenska debatten (Fri förlag 2005) och menar att det är ett exempel på en starkt politiserad kunskapsöversikt.

Abstract: Previous experiments have shown that severe hypoglycemia disrupts cerebral energy state in spite of a maintained cerebral oxygen consumption, suggesting uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation. Other studies have demonstrated that hypoglycemia leads to loss of cerebral cortical phospholipids and phospholipid-bound fatty acids. The objective of the present study was, therefore, to study r

We examined temporal and geographical distribution of Haemoproteus sp. and Plasmodium sp. parasites in Swedish willow warblers, Phylloscopus trochilus. Parasite lineages were detected with molecular methods in 556 birds from 41 sites distributed at distances up to 1,500 km. Two mitochondrial lineages of Haemoproteus sp. were detected, WW1 in 56 birds and WW2 in 75 birds, that differed by 5.2% sequ

Objective: Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is one of the major causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity. To date, there are no reliable methods to detect which infants will develop brain damage after asphyxia insult. Design and Setting: Prospective study conducted in three tertiary departments of neonatology from December 1999 to July 2002. Participants: A total of 44 infants with perinat

We investigate international monetary-policy transmission under different exchange-rate and capital-account regimes in eleven small, open economies during the 1980s and 1990s. We find no systematic link between ex-post monetary-policy autonomy and exchange-rate regimes. Capital controls appear to have provided a degree of temporal insulation from foreign monetary policy shocks, though not strict a

The effect of photodynamic therapy on tape-stripped normal human skin was explored ultrastructurally. Back skin areas of 3 healthy Caucasian volunteers, 2 men and 1 woman, were tape-stripped 10 consecutive times followed by topical treatment with 5-aminolevulinic acid (20%, w/w) for 4 hours under occlusion (Tegaderm(R)). Then the areas were irradiated for 30 minutes with Waldman PDT 1200 lamp (570

We have previously identified C1 domain-containing phosphatase and TENsin homologue (C1-TEN) as being an intracellular binding partner for Axl receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK). C1-TEN is a tensin-related protein that houses an N-terminal region with predicted structural similarity to PTEN. Here, we report our observations on the effects of ectopic expression of C1-TEN in HEK293 cells, which resulted

Med hjälp av elva fallstudier undersöktes hur livskvaliteten hos funktionshindrade påverkas av tillgången till ortopedtekniska (OT) hjälpmedel och professionella insatser. Resultatet tyder på att det finns stora skillnader i insatser för samma funktionshinder och därmed kostnader mellan olika personer som får OT-hjälpmedel. Den som lever ett mer aktivt liv och t ex sportar får i regel mer avancera

Recension av Chris Rodleys intervjubok med David Cronenberg.

The gamma-decay of excited states in the neutron deficient isotopes Tc-87 and Tc-88 has been observed for the first time. The fusion-evaporation reactions Ni-58(S-32, p2n)Tc-87 and Ni-58(S-32, pn)Tc-88 at 110 MeV, Ca-40(Cr-50, p2n)Tc-87 and Ca-40(Cr-50, pn)Tc-88 at 170 MeV and Ni-58(Ar-36, alpha-pn)Tc-88 at 145 MeV beam energy were used. Unambiguous identification of these nuclei which are populat
