Popular Abstract in Swedish I en tid då vi är medvetna om problemen med beroendet av fossila material, både som energi- och råvarukälla, måste vi söka långsiktiga och miljömässigt hållbara lösningar. Katalys kan utgöra ett viktigt bidrag i detta arbete, då det möjliggör reaktioner som annars skulle vara svåra att genomföra på grund av en för hög energibarriär. I takt med den övriga teknologiska utIn times when dwindling energy resources is a major long-term problem for sustaining modern infrastructure and technologies, we need to focus on more enduring solutions. A key contribution to this achievement is catalysis. In order to further develop the significant advancements gained over the last several decades, a deeper understanding of the catalytic processes has to be sought down to the lev

Popular Abstract in English Fungi are multi-cellular eukaryotic organisms which form thread-like filaments called hyphae. They form reproductive structures called sporocarp (also known as mushrooms). Most fungi are saproptrophs, feeding on dead or decaying material while many are also parasitic, feeding on living organisms. In addition, most vascular plants are always in symbiotic association withEctomycorrhizae is the dominant type of mycorrhiza found in association with tree roots in boreal and northern temperate forests. In this symbiosis, the fungal partner derives energy from photosynthates provided by the host trees and in return delivers soil-derived nutrients such as nitrogen (N). The majority of N in forest soils is embedded in recalcitrant organic matter–protein complexes. Ectomy

This paper presents the concept and initial work on a microfluidic platform for bead-based analysis of biological sample. The core technology in this project is ultrasonic manipulation and trapping of particle in array configurations by means of acoustic forces. The platform is ultimately aimed for parallel multistep bioassays performed on biochemically activated microbeads (or particles) using su

Enriched environment (EE) housing significantly ameliorates neurological deficits induced by cortical brain ischemia without changing infarction size, suggesting that EE-related functional benefits are associated with neuronal plasticity events in the remaining tissue. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), nerve growth factor-induced gene A (NGFI-A) and corticosteroid receptors (mineralocortic

Popular Abstract in Swedish Immunförsvaret är uppdelat i primära och sekundära lymfoida organ (inkl. lymfkörtlar). De primära och sekundära organen är sammanknutna av blod- och lymfcirkulationen som transporterar immunceller till olika organ och vävnader i kroppen. I de primära organen bildas immunförsvarsceller, bl a T celler. T celler försvarar kroppen vid en infektion, antingen indirekt genom Lymphocytes are important mediators of adaptive immune responses. Naive T lymphocytes circulate in the blood and lymph between different secondary lymphoid organs in search for their specific antigen. Upon activation, lymphocytes change their expression of adhesion molecules and chemokine receptors and become able to enter non-lymphoid tissues where they take part in fighting infections. Selective

This paper focuses on the evaluation of static and dynamic characteristics of a single-phase claw-pole motor using soft magnetic composite (SMC) for the stator core. On the basis of the static characteristics, which are measured and obtained from a series of 3D FE magnetostatic solutions, the dynamic characteristics are simulated according to a proposed control strategy. The same strategy is teste

Commentary on Articles 116-119 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.

The anticipated growing penetration of inverter-interfaced DER affects several aspects of power system analysis ranging from the impact on the system behavior to the modeling and simulation needs of the new technologies. The adequate representation and assessment of the role of the self-commutated converters is addressed through a number of challenges illustrated by a set of examples dealing with

Antiken har alltid varit en tacksam tidsperiod för filmmakare. Men hur har antiken skildrats i olika tider och medier? I Svärd, sandaler och skandaler undersöker en rad skribenter från olika ämnen de uttryck antiken har tagit sig på film och i tv. Boken är den första i sitt slag på svenska. I fem avdelningar behandlas relationen mellan den antika historien och dess sentida gestaltningar i rörliga
