An immunological capacitive biosensor for calpastatin was developed, optimized and applied for the analysis of meat extract samples. Anti-calpastatin antibody was immobilized on a gold electrode modified with a self-assembled monolayer of mercaptoundecanoic acid and Protein A from Staphylococcus aureus, and the obtained immunosensor was inserted as the working electrode in an electrochemical cell
The aetiology of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) remains unclear. The objective of the present study was to test the insulin, oestradiol and metabolic syndrome hypotheses as promoters of BPH. The design was a risk factor analysis of BPH in which the total prostate gland volume was related to endocrine and anthropometric factors. The participants studied were 184 representative men, aged 72-76 y
Background: Free and total human kallikrein 2 (hK2) might improve the discrimination between prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Concentrations of hK2 are 100-fold lower than concentrations of prostate-specific antigen (PSA); therefore, an hK2 assay must have a low detection limit and good specificity. Methods: PSA- and hK2-specific monoclonal antibodies were used in solid-phase, two
In laryngectomized patients a tracheo-esophageal artificial fistula can be used to achieve air flow from the trachea to the esophagus during speech. A one-way plastic valve is often used for the fistula. A free jejunal graft between the trachea and the esophagus can also be used. To avoid aspiration the transplant is attached to the submental area giving the graft a siphon-like shape. We performed
Enzymatic hydrolysis using immobilized lipases for the production of free fatty acids and glycerol is a promising alternative to the current industrial standard. This study investigates a set of hydrolysis reactions catalysed by four different immobilization techniques to increase the knowledge on two-phase systems. The evaluation of how water purity, buffer salts, and water amount affect the reac
Denna rapport redogör över utvecklingsprocessen för ett silikonfritt, läckagetätt lock för matlådan IKEA 365+, för att undvika användandet av en silikonpackning som produkten gör idag. Drivkraften bakom projektet är att silikon är ett mycket energikrävande material att producera, samt är inte i stor skala återvinningsbart idag. Rapporten använder sig av en traditionell produktutvecklingsprocess saThis report elaborates on the development process of a silicone free, leakproof seal for the lid of the IKEA 365+ food storage platform, to alleviate the need for a silicone gasket that is used for the product today. Silicone is undesirable due to the energy intensive production and because it is not recyclable at large scale. The report uses a traditional product development process along with si

In the brain, focal ischemia results in a local region of cell death and disruption of both local and remote functional neuronal networks. Tissue reorganization following stroke can be limited by factors such as extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules that prevent neuronal growth and synaptic plasticity. The brain's ECM plays a crucial role in network formation, development, and regeneration of the c
Betygsättande lärare utvecklar ofta med tiden en stor kunskap om betygskriterier, i så motto att de får en god känsla för vad i en studentprestation som värderas, bedöms och betygsätts – den så viktiga bedömarkompetensen. Ibland formuleras denna kunskap medvetet och explicit, inför läraren själv, liksom inför berörda studenter och kollegor. Andra gånger stannar den som mer tyst kunskap hos läraren

A highly active zinc glutarate-double metal cyanide (DMC) composite catalyst (ZnGA/Zn-CrDMC) was designed for the carbon dioxide (CO2) and propylene oxide (PO) copolymerization reaction. The composite catalyst was synthesized in a rheological phase reaction and characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SE
This paper explores the effects of co-payment price reduction to zero for prescribed pharmaceuticals on the volume of medicine consumed and the price elasticity for youths. Data was collected from two Swedish national registries on pharmaceutical consumption and municipality socioeconomic factors for groups of ages 17 and 19, from January 2013 to June 2018. I use a difference-in-difference strateg
