Popular Abstract in Swedish Maligna mjukdelstumörer, så kallade mjukdelssarkom, utgör hos vuxna en ovanlig tumörform som uppkommer i kroppens stödjevävnader. Till dessa räknas muskler, fett, bindväv, slemsäckar samt kärl och nerver som försörjer dessa vävnader. Trots att stödjevävnaderna omfattar mer än hälften av den totala kroppsvikten, utgör mjukdelssarkomen mindre än 1 % av alla maligna tumöreIn adult soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the extremities and trunk wall, improved prognostic factors are needed to identify patients at high-risk for metastasis. Various factors are included in the many prognostic systems currently in use and the prognostic value of immunohistochemical (IHC) expression of biological markers is unclear. The tissue-preserving, high throughput tissue microarray (TMA) te

Conversion of biomass to liquid fuels, such as ethanol, has been investigated during the past decades. First due to the oil crisis of the 1970s and lately because of concerns about greenhouse effect, ethanol has been found to be a suitable substitute for gasoline in transportation. Although ethanol is produced in large quantities from corn starch, the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to ethan

We examined the influence of widely varied consumption of fatty fish from the Baltic Sea and of age on plasma concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorobiphenylols (OH-PCBs), 2, 2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-1,1,1-trichloroethane (4,4'-DDT), 2, 2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-1,1-dichloroethane (4,4'-DDE), 2,2',4, 4'-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47), hexachlorobenzene (HCB), and pentachlorophen

To investigate the influence of eutrophication on organochlorine dynamics in lotic systems, we related polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) concentrations in brown trout (Salmo trutta) to the periphyton density and total phosphorus concentrations (Tot-P) in 10 Swedish rivers. Tot-P concentrations in the water ranged from 37 +/- 4 to 156 +/- 51 mug L-1. Periphyton density in the rivers during the experim

Increased intraluminal pressure of the rat portal vein in vivo causes hypertrophy and altered contractility in 1 to 7 days. We have used organ cultures to investigate mechanisms involved in this adaptation to mechanical load. Strips of rat portal vein were cultured for 3 days, either undistended or loaded by a weight. Length-force relations were shifted toward longer length in stretched cultured v

This thesis deals with techniques for raising the programming level for a particular kind of computations, namely those on abstract syntax trees. Such computations are central in many program analysis tools, such as compilers, smart language-sensitive editors, and static analysis tools. All techniques presented in this thesis support modular description and efficiency and are capable of handling l

A subcommittee of the Swedish Reference Group for Antibiotics, SRGA-M, has worked with standardization of methodology for susceptibility testing. In vitro data obtained with the disk diffusion procedure were collected from 5 clinical laboratories, compiled and presented as histograms of inhibition zones, and compared with data [minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and inhibition zones] obtaine

On various taxonomical problems and solutions in Svenska Akademiens grammatik (1999). Delimitiations of inflected and uninflected parts of speech. On the structure of prepositional phrases and unstressed verbs + stressed adverbial particles. Some new technical concepts: "satsbas" 'sentence basis', "annex" (for constituent which is loosely connected with a sentence).

The effect of the dominant RN− allele on rigor development, ageing and tenderness was studied in M. longissimus dorsi (LD) from 11 heterozygous carriers and five non-carriers of the RN− allele. Rigor development was followed by measurements of muscle shortening, isometric tension, pH and FOP. During ageing the myofibrillar length and Warner–Bratzler shear force were measured in the meat. Sensory a

We report on radiative lifetimes of 4d5p excited states of Zr III produced in a laser produced plasma. The ions were populated either in the ground state or in metastable states, and the number of ions is strongly dependent on the application of an external magnetic field, which is shown to be very important when using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique for lifetime measurement

Two industrial effluents, a pre-fermentation effluent and a post-fermentation effluent from a wheat starch production plant, were used as substrates for fuel ethanol production in anaerobic batch cultures using minimal nutritional amendment. The performances of three metabolically engineered xylose-utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains: TMB 3001 expressing XYL1, XYL2 and XKS1, redox metabolis

Various kinds of subgraph counts have been proposed as important statistics in the social sciences: for instance, in connection with studies of the structural properties of social networks. Since the empirical structure in question often involves an element of randomness, subgraph counts are random variables and, consequently, we need to describe their probabilistic properties. In this paper we gi

A double stranded DNA based fluorescence bioprobe for anticancer agent (doxorubicin) detection is described. This method provides a new way for sensitive DNA/drug interaction study by a homogeneous assay. The probe employs the long-wavelength intercalating fluorophore TOTO-3((R)) (TT3). The anticancer agent, doxorubicin, which interacts with the DNA-TT3 complex, was indirectly measured by the decr
