Objective: The aim was to investigate the effects of sleep, television use and texting and computer habits on overweight, enjoyment of school and fee

Steady state and time-resolved absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy have been used to investigated the energy transfer in photosynthetic purple bacteria. Picosecond light pulses were used in measurements of Rb. sphaeroides WT and a LH1-deleted mutant, demonstrating that the energy trapping into the reaction center in both species occur on the same time-scale, and that the excitation energy is

The main question of this text is how interpretations and representations of the Holocaust have been related to concerns of national and other kinds of identity among Czechoslovaks and, after the so-called Velvet Divorce of 1993, among Czechs and Slovaks.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Biokemi, livets kemi, är den gren av naturvetenskapen som avhandlar de molekyler och kemiska processer som är nödvändiga för allt levandes existens. Genom att karakterisera livets molekyler och deras funktion vill man öka förståelsen kring vad som krävs för att en organism ska kunna leva, växa, fortplanta sig och anpassa sej till nya miljöer och förhållanden. Som biokemAquaporins constitute a class of membrane proteins that create pores through the lipid bilayer of biological membranes, facilitating the passage of water and other small solutes. Nearly all living organisms possess a more or less intricate set up of aquaporin proteins and the importance of these channels has been implicated in many aspects of health and disease. The aim of the projects summarized

I artikeln kommer brottsoffrens kränkningsersättning att analyseras ur ett rättssociologiskt perspektiv. Ersättningen kommer att relateras till den svenska kriminalpolitiska utvecklingen, till olika samhälls- och rättsvetenskapliga teorier och begrepp vilka kan vara användbara för en fördjupad förståelse av ersättningen utifrån skadeståndsrättsligt, viktimologiskt och kriminalpolitiskt perspektiv.

Flexibility is a desired quality of software processes. Process flexibility implies a capability to adapt to new contexts. Another aspect of flexibility is the cost of maintaining process effectiveness as new situations arise. A lack of preparedness for future events may constitute a high risk to a software development organization. This paper presents a method for assessing the flexibility of an

In order to develop new pharmaceuticals, to optimize pharmacotherapy and secure patient safety, documentation of the properties of pharmaceutical formulations is a most important process. A significant practical problem associated with pre-clinical evaluation of lipophilic substances with pharmacological properties is their low aqueous solubility. The overall aim of this thesis was to develop te

The chapter describes and analyses panel data for six villages in Tamil Nadu from 1980 to 2005. It deals with agricultural change and soci-economic improvements.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med undersökningen är att beskriva de livsförändringsprocesser som blir nödvändiga då en person drabbas av kronisk sjukdom eller ett funktionshinder. Vad innebär det att drabbas av en kronisk sjukdom eller ett funktionshinder? Hur lär man sig leva med de nya livsvillkoren?

As subjects for the study, women with chronic pain (fibromyalgi and myofascial pain syndrome), were chosen. Eighteen women active in working life were interviewed on two occasions, with an interval of two months. The women have been living with t
