The work presented in this thesis demonstrates the application of electrochemical methods for probing the dynamics of cellular metabolism in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The main part of the work has been done using genetically modified strains of yeast. Employing baker’s yeast, S. cerevisiae, as a model organism, it was demonstrated how an amperometric method can be utilized for real-time in

Recent statistics and terror events testify an increased vulnerability of distribution networks. Antagonistic threats as theft, counterfeiting, contamination and terror are burdening supply chains with unexpected costs in form of lost cargo, production downtimes, lower customer satisfaction, and higher transportation costs.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ledgångsreumatism (reumatoid artrit) är en allvarlig inflammatorisk led- och systemsjukdom som drabbar ungefär 1% av befolkningen. Den är sannolikt den vanligaste behandlingsbara orsaken till invaliditet i västerlandet. Under de senaste 10 åren har allt fler forskare uppmärksammat sjukdomens dåliga prognos och manat till en tidigare och mera effektiv behandling så snartRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is probably the most common source of treatable disability in the Western world. There are several disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), which have proven to be of therapeutic efficacy in RA, but the lack of a potent, reliable treatment for early RA is a major problem in modern medicine. An obvious line of approach in the quest for better antirheumatic drugs is

The optical design for the proposed Euro50 extremely large telescopewith integrated adaptive optics (AO) is presented. For atmosphericturbulence correction, we propose using single and dual-conjugate AOsystems working with natural and laser guide stars. The corrective shapeof the deformable mirrors (DMs) is derived from an analytical algorithmbased on minimization of the sum of the residual power

Andra världskriget utgör den mest genomforskade perioden i svensk historia. Med några få undantag har emellertid hittillsvarande undersökningar undvikit en av de viktigaste ingångarna till en djupare förståelse för dessa unika år – bilderna.

This thesis is based on work done 1991-1996 using the DELPHI detector at LEP, and is summarized in four articles. It consists of four main parts. The first part describes the Very Small Angle Tagger (VSAT) and Small angle TIle Calorimeter (STIC), which are sub-detectors of DELPHI. The VSAT consists of four silicon-tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter modules, having silicon strip planes for accur
