In absence of covariance data, Kalman filters are usually initialized by guessing the initial state. Making the variance of the initial state estimate large makes sure that the estimate converges quickly and that the influence of the initial guess soon will be negligible. If, however, only very few measurements are available during the estimation process and an estimate is wanted as soon as possib

This work describes the degradation of nonylphenol, toxaphene, phenanthrene, benzo[a]pyrene and dyes using fungi and their redox enzymes. Two fungi, Bjerkandera sp. strain BOL13 and Fusarium sp. strain BOL35 were isolated from different geographic area in Bolivia. They were characterized genetically, physiologically and biochemically. Degradation of nonylphenol by Bjerkandera sp. strain BOL13 and

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om en ärftlig hjärnsjukdom som heter Huntingtons sjukdom, eller danssjuka. Sjukdomen leder till personlighetsförändringar, ofrivilliga rörelser (som ser ut som om personen dansar) och demens. Personer som drabbas dör 15-20 år efter att symptomen har brutit ut, och en god behandling eller botemedel saknas. Sjukdomen orsakas av att HuntingtongenenHuntington's disease (HD) is a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expansion of a CAG repeat in the HD gene, that leads to dysfunction and death of striatal neurons. The pathogenetic mechanisms underlying HD are not known, but excitotoxicity and dopamine (DA) have been suggested to play a role. In this thesis, the effects of excitotoxicity and DA have been studied in striatal in vit
