Purpose: We examined if data-driven food-patterns associate with weight change, incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D), coronary events (CE) and stroke. Methods: The study included 20,487 individuals (61% women) from the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort, 45–74 years, without diabetes and CVD at baseline (1991–1996) and who did not report dietary changes. Diet was measured with a modified diet history meth
Software developers are gaining increasing influence within every company they work for and work with. Engaging at C-level is no longer sufficient: the software developer is now a powerful force in decision-making.This book is intended to be the “textbook” for those working - or starting - in developer marketing. It will teach you how to engage with developers to build a two-way relationship that
A comparison was made between two plant peroxidases, cationic horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and anionic tobacco peroxidase (TOP), combined with a highly cationic osmium polymer [Os(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine)2poly(N-vinylimidazole)10Cl]+2/+ ([Os(dmp)PVI]+/2+) to develop highly sensitive, stable and selective hydrogen peroxide biosensors. The two different plant peroxidases were individually immo
Chromatography is an important separation process for several industries due to its ability to separate components with similar physical properties, which are difficult to separate otherwise. This method may also give high product purity, which is necessary for production of biopharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. However, conventional feedback control systems cannot be utilized to control most chr
This paper explores market integration in Lao PDR, focusing on the beer market. At the time of analysis, the Lao beer market exhibited some highly unusual features that facilitate our exploration. Beer Lao, the domestic beer brand, was completely dominant in the market – importation of beer was not allowed, and informal (illegal) imports were of very limited importance. Beer Lao was produced in on
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid tillagning av kött, och framför allt stekning och grillning, bildas mutagena ämnen i stekskorpan. Dessa ämnen benämns heterocykliska aminer. Flera epidemiologiska studier har visat ett samband mellan uppkomsten av cancer och intaget av heterocykliska aminer, medan några studier inte finner något samband. Ämnena har också visat kunna utveckla tumörer och cancer i djuCommonly cooked meat dishes contain heterocyclic amines (HAs) at ng/g levels. HAs are animal carcinogens, form DNA adducts in human tissues, and have been associated with increased risk of cancer in epidemiological studies, and it is thus recommended that human intake be decreased. The aim of this investigation was to find ways of modifying cooking practices to reduce the formation of HAs. Various
Abstract in UndeterminedIn the humanitarian context, gender mediates access to aid. The gender of the beneficiary is not only intrinsically linked with her/his disaster vulnerability (Enarson, 2002), but also to their ability to physically access aid distribution points (Lutz and Gady, 2004) and even to be considered a beneficiary in the first place. There is, however, yet another factor mitigatin
Several articles within the area of green chemistry often promote new techniques or products as 'green' or 'more environmentally benign' than their conventional counterpart although these articles often do not quantitatively assess the environmental performance. In order to do this, life cycle assessment (LCA) is a valuable methodology. However, on the planning stage, a full-scale LCA is considere
Background: Celiac disease often goes undiagnosed. Mass screening might be an option to reduce the public health burden of untreated celiac disease. However, mass screening is still controversial since it is uncertain whether the benefits of early detection outweigh the possible negative consequences. Before implementation of screening programs, the experiences of those being identified as cases s
Background: Songbirds hold great promise for biomedical, environmental and evolutionary research. A complete draft sequence of the zebra finch genome is imminent, yet a need remains for application of genomic resources within a research community traditionally focused on ethology and neurobiological methods. In response, we developed a core set of genomic tools and a novel collaborative strategy t
A performance-based service life design format based on climatic exposure on one hand and "resistance" of materials against mould growth on the other hand, is presented in this paper. A limit state for onset of mould growth is defined as the occurrence of traces of mould observed by microscopy. A dose-response model is proposed by which onset of mould growth can be predicted for an arbitrary clima
Theory regarding capital investments with low uncertainty is well developed, but theory concerning investments characterized by uncertainty is vainer. Valuation of investments with great uncertainty is of special interest for companies within research intensive businesses like medical technology, where the dialysis company Alfa functions. For a long time, Alfa was unique about its front edge compe
The reasons for the lack of access to essential medicines are manifold, but in many cases the high price of drugs is a barrier to needed medicines. The unaffordable prices of drugs are often the result of strong intellectual property protection. This thesis lay out the conflicts between patent right protection and access to medicine as human right, especially the impact of TRIPS Agreement on the a
I Sverige bor ca 85% av befolkningen i stan, vilket har genererat stora mängder trafik i städerna. För att klara av den ökade trafiken, minska olägenheterna trafiken skapar och uppnå effektiv mobilitet erbjuder ITS, intelligenta transportsystem, och IoT, internet of things, applikationer olika digitala hjälpmedel för att lösa de begynnande problemen. Syftet för detta arbete har varit att ta redaAbout 85% of Sweden’s population live in a city, which have resulted in great amounts of traffic in the cities. To deal with the increasing traffic, decrease the disadvantages that the traffic creates and achieve effective mobility ITS, Intelligent transport system, and IoT, internet of things applications offer digital tools to solve the rising issues. The purpose of the study has been to find
Aktivt kol har identifierats som en av de mer effektiva metoderna när det kommer till att avlägsna organiska mikroföroreningar (OMF) från avloppsvatten. Aktivt kol är ett poröst material med stor ytarea som kan adsorbera andra ämnen. Det är inget som existerar naturligt utan behöver framställas. Framställningen kan ske från i princip vilket material som helst som har en hög kolhalt. En stor del avActivated carbon has been identified as one of the more effective methods of removing organic micropollutants (OMP) from wastewater. Activated carbon is a porous material with a large surface area that allows adsorption of other substances. The material does not exist naturally and therefore has to be produced. The production can be done from any carbon-rich material and today the precursor is mai
is a requirement: It would be preferred that a wind turbine with a life of 20 years could repay itself for at least 10 years, if that investment wants to feel worthwhile. This is due to investment costs and annual production of the plant. However, the produced electricity, which is defined by suppliers, is not reliable. This is because the estimated annual production is usually given at the averag
Övergången till mer hållbara livsmedelssystem och växtbaserade proteinkällor har blivit allt viktigare för att minska livsmedelssystemets klimatpåverkan. Rapsfrökaka är en restprodukt från oljeextraktion med potential att användas som råvara för proteinutvinning och vidare tillämpning i växtbaserade livsmedel tack vare dess balanserade komposition av aminosyror. På grund av bitter smak och högt inThe transition to more sustainable food systems and plant-based protein sources has become increasingly important in reducing the climate impact of the food system. Rapeseed press cake is a by-product of oil extraction that has the potential to be used as a raw material for protein extraction and further use in plant-based foods, thanks to its balanced amino acid profile. Due to its bitter taste a
Potato protein is an industrial side product with highly desirable properties which can be utilized if the toxic glycoalkaloids can be removed in a gentle way which doesn’t damage the protein. The challenge within this project is to find an extraction technique efficient enough to remove the toxic glycoalkaloids, but still mild enough to preserve the protein from denaturation. Supercritical CO2 ex
