Analysis of Emanuel Swedenborg and his conceptual understanding of writing

PCB concentration in river water at the outlet of a lake was monitored far two years following the completed remediation of the PCB contaminated sediment of the lake. The remediation resulted in lowered PCB concentration in the sediment, from 5 mu g g(-1) (d.w.) to 0.060 mu g g(-1) (d.w.). PCB concentration in the water decreased over the two years, but varied seasonally. Highest PCB concentration

The complex formation between HOO and SO2 in argon matrices has been studied with FTIR spectroscopy. The complex shifts of the intramolecular fundamentals of the complex components suggest the formation of a complex, where HOO acts as a lone pair donor to the sulfur atom of SO2 while its hydrogen atom is sufficiently close to one of the oxygen atoms of SO2 to give a significant blue shift of the H

This study seeks to find answers to the question of how much competition is introduced by different types of regulation aimed at promoting electricity generated with renewable energies. For this purpose the partial equilibrium model is applied. Further analysis of the costs of governance for two realised regulations, the German EEG and the Texas RPS, is based on Transaction Cost Economics.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate markers of endothelial activation in muscle biopsies from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with and without extra-articular manifestations (ExRA). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Nine consecutive ExRA patients were compared with nine RA controls without ExRA, matched for age, sex and duration of RA. Muscle biopsies were obtained from the lateral vastus or anterior tibial muscle.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Korsningsintensiteten for en stationär stokastisk process är ett värdefullt verktyg när man studerar fördelningen för våghöjder och för maxima av havsnivån. Denna avhandling betraktar två approximationstekniker för fall då korsningsintensiteten inte kan ges exakt.Båda tekniker använder en asymptotisk expansion, och första och andra ordningens termer i denna approximatioThe crossing rate of a stationary random process is a valuble tool when studying crest hight distributions and maxima of sea level elevation. This thesis considers two approximation techinques for cases when the crossing rate cannot be exactly computed. Both techniques use an asymptotic expansion, and the first and second order terms in these expansions are given explicitly. Paper A describes how

Gorbachev’s environmental policies aimed at raising the masses and incite them to action for the common good. A side effect was the introduction of the factor information in Soviet society. Thereby centrifugal political forces were released. These forces rallied behind environmental issues of local, and thus local ethnic significance. The ensuing political mobilization was nationalist in spirit.

The paper is devoted to an extension of one particular fact withintheory of partial stability, the so-called Pozharitsky Theorem,to the case of partial stabilization of nonlinear controlled system.It is shown that under appropriate assumptions partialstabilization of the system based on usage some Lyapunov functionconstructed from first integrals of the unforced system, impliesthat the Lyapunov fu

This study investigates the efficacy of tumor radioimmunotargeting with 125I-labeled BR96-biotin monoclonal antibody using a new method, whole-blood immunoadsorption (WBIA), based on direct adsorption of unbound monoclonal antibody (MAb) from blood without preceding separation of plasma. METHODS: Highly tumor-reactive, internalizing, chimeric BR96 MAb of isotype IgG1 binds to a tumor-associated Le

alpha(1)-Microglobulin, also called protein HC, is a lipocalin with immunosuppressive properties. The protein has been found in a number of vertebrate species including frogs and fish. This review summarizes the present knowledge of its structure, biosynthesis, tissue distribution and immunoregulatory properties. alpha(1)-Microglobulin has a yellow-brown color and is size and charge heterogeneous.

Objectives: To compare men with prostate disease with those from the general population regarding polymorphisms in the androgen receptor gene and in the 5 alpha-reductase II (SRD5A2) gene. Materials and methods: The SRD5A2 polymorphisms A49T, V89L and R227Q, the androgen receptor CAG and GGN repeats and sex hormone status was investigated in men with prostate cancer (CaP) (n = 89), benign prostate

Within the framework of the European Land Arctic Physical Processes project and as part of the Danish Research Council's Polar Program, a study on trace gas exchange in a high-arctic ecosystem was conducted in NE Greenland, May-August 1997. On the basis of carbon dioxide flux measurements from three dominant surface types, this paper reports on the upscaling of such measurements from canopy to lan
