The anaerobic fermentation of deproteinized whey with beta-galactosidase coimmobilized with Saccharomyces cerevisiae in calcium alginate gel beads for the production of ethanol has been studied in a continuous horizontal packed bed reactor (HPBR). The results are compared with batch experiments in a stirred tank reactor. The immobilized yeast cells are exposed to conditions that vary with time and
1. The effects of antimalarial drugs on the intracellular signaling leading to activation of the phospholipase C and phospholipase A2 pathways and the induction of proinflammatory cytokines have been studied in mouse macrophages. 2. Both chloroquine and quinacrine, and to a lesser extent hydroxychloroquine, inhibited arachidonate release and eicosanoid formation induced by phorbol diester. This in

Popular Abstract in Swedish Konstant produktion av blodceller i benmärgen krävs för att bibehålla normal syretransport i blodet, sårläkning och ett effektivt immunförsvar. Bakom denna produktion ligger hematopoetiska blodstamceller som regleras av en komplex interaktion mellan dem och deras omgivning. Varje blodstamcell kan med självförnyande celldelningar, där minst en dottercell bibehåller en stHematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are sufficient and required for life long production of all blood cell lineages. Steady state HSCs are largely quiescent and we demonstrate that the kinetics of HSC cell cycling are slower compared to more committed progenitor cells also during expansion and self-renewal ex vivo and in physiological conditions. Such slow kinetics during cell division might reflect a
Background. Artificial neural networks have successfully been applied for automated interpretation of myocardial perfusion images. So far the networks have used data from the myocardial perfusion images only. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the automated interpretation of myocardial perfusion images with the use of artificial neural networks was improved if clinical data were
The use of membrane-based extractions are increasingly seen as offering an alternative to conventional sample preparation procedures in analysis of chemical species in both food and agricultural samples. In this article, emphasis is placed on the attractiveness of membrane based extraction techniques to a variety of food and agricultural samples such as circulating nutrient solutions, fruit juices
Aim: To investigate the association between the use of cellular or cordless telephones and the risk for salivary gland tumours. Methods: Cases were assessed from the six regional cancer registries in Sweden. Four controls matched for sex and age in five year age groups were selected for each case. A total of 293 living cases and 1172 controls were included. Results: There were 267 (91%) participat
Dermatan sulphate is a co-polymer of two types of disaccharide repeats: D-glucuronate-N-acetylgalactosamine and L-iduronate-N-acetylgalactosamine. The former can be O-sulphated at C-4 or C-6 of the galactosamine, whereas the latter contains almost exclusively 4-O-sulphated galactosamine. A minor proportion of the L-iduronate may be O-sulphated at C-2. Chondroitin sulphate has no L-iduronate-contai

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether preoperative and postoperative enrichment of the environment can enhance the functional outcome after cerebral infarction in rats. METHODS: The right middle cerebral artery was ligated in adult spontaneously hypertensive male rats, and the functional outcome was studied for 12 weeks after the operation. Three groups were co
Objectives & Methods: Diseases of the human urinary tract represent common morbidities characterized by a high prevalence in the population of most westernized countries. The existeince of a significant number of affected patients and the recent increase in scientific attention has resulted in various experimental and clinical efforts in order to evaluate the mechanisms controlling the functio
