In the title compound, C18H10N2S2, a crystallographic mirror plane passes through the two S atoms. The pentacyclic ring system is folded along the S-S vector and the central dithiine ring adopts a boat conformation.
Albumin concentration in a morning urine sample was analyzed in a cross-sectional study in 476 insulin-dependent diabetic patients. The following groups of patients were defined: A) normal urinary albumin (urine albumin less than 12.5 mg/L); B) high normal albuminuria (12.5-30 mg/L); C) microalbuminuria, ie, incipient nephropathy (31-299 mg/L); and D) clinical nephropathy (greater than or equal to
En översikt över gudsrikestanken i Bibeln samt över diskussioner som förts angående gudsrikestanken från Immanuel Kant fram till nutiden
Radiative lifetimes of nine out of the twelve 4f(13)6p levels in Yb III have been measured, seven of these for the first time. A Penning discharge lamp is introduced as a continuous plasma source, in which the lifetimes are determined with the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique by pumping from metastable 5d and 6s levels. Spectra of the same source are recorded with a Fourier-trans

The response of the liquid scintillator array Nordball to neutrons in the energy range 1.5 < T-n < 10 MeV has been measured by time of flight using a Cf-252 fission source. Fission fragments were detected by means of a thin-film plastic scintillator. The measured differential and integral neutron detection efficiencies agree well with predictions of a Monte Carlo simulation of the detector which m
To study the effect of different injection timings on the charge inhomogeneity, planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) was applied to an operating engine. Quantitative images of the fuel distribution within the engine were obtained. Since the fuel used, iso-octane, does not fluoresce, a dopant was required. Three pentanone was found to have vapor pressure characteristics similar to those of iso-
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen omfattar förutom en kort inledning, i huvudsak två delar: (1) Beskrivning av teorin bakom ett datorbaserat verktyg för simulering av termodynamiken i ett motorsystem, där främst motorer med Homogen Kompressionsantändning (Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition, HCCI) avses. Med system avses förutom själva motorn, turboladdare, laddluftkylare, insug och avgThis thesis focuses on engine system simulation using thermodynamics and chemical kinetic models to investigate the performance and efficiency of Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engines for stationary applications. It includes the development of software as well as models for engine, turbocharger, intercooler, inlet and exhaust manifolds, wastegate valve, inlet air humidifier, inle
The therapeutic effect of monoclonal antibody (H57-597 MoAb) against T-cell receptor (TCR) alpha beta has been investigated on MOG(35-55)-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), as a model system for T-cell-mediated chronic inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS). Short-term administration of the anti-TCR alpha beta immediately after immunization protected the mice from E
As society today increasingly understands the impact of transnational corporate operations, an increasing recognition on the part of corporations of their responsibility for social and environmental well being of people in poor countries appears. The norm - Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) grew out of such logic. The present study explores the extent to which CSR can be expected to contribute
Composite materials, i.e, mixtures of two or more materials, are commonly used in industry, because they often have outstanding properties in comparison with the original materials. In many cases the inhomogeneities are on a very fine scale, which makes it difficult to perform a full numerical simulation of the material. On the fine scale we have rapid oscillations in the material parameters, but
Background and Purpose - Autoantibodies against antigens in oxidized low-density lipoprotein are common in people; experimental studies suggest that these immune responses have a functional role in the disease process. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the immune response against one defined oxidized low-density lipoprotein antigen, the aldehyde-modified peptide corres
