The evolution of char porous structure can affect the gasification rate of biomass char. A model based on the classical capillary pores is developed taking into account different conversion rates for pores having different radii. The contribution of different pores with different radii is taken into account using an effectiveness factor presented for each pore radius. As the char conversion procee
Background: Timely treatment of acute allergic reactions (AARs) is important to minimize reaction severity. Corticosteroid tablets dissolved in water are commonly used in mainstay treatment. A new oral film that dissolves on the tongue provides a faster and less cumbersome alternative to tablets for corticosteroid administration during AARs. This study evaluated patients' preferences for attribute
Antikroppar har ett brett användningsområde med stor potential men det är svårt att skapa stabila lösningar. Den strukturella stabiliteten är en viktig faktor när man väljer läkemedelskandidater, och i de tidiga utvecklingsstadierna görs prediktiva undersökningar för att ta reda på varje kandidats stabilitet och utvecklings-potential. Därmed är det av största intresse att utvärdera hur antikropparA great challenge during early development of medicinal antibodies is to determine the stability of the candidates. This is required to be able to select the candidates with the greatest developability. The stability of the candidates can be estimated using different orthogonal techniques and the aim of this investigation was thus to use orthogonal techniques for the investigation of conformationa
We previously reported that soluble decay-accelerating factor (DAF) and coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) blocked coxsackievirus 133 (CVB3) myocarditis in mice, but only soluble CAR blocked CVB3-mediated pancreatitis. Here, we report that the in vitro mechanisms of viral inhibition by these soluble receptors also differ. Soluble DAF inhibited virus infection through the formation of reversi
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
Czechoslovak productive efficiency of the iron and steel sector fluctuated below the energy efficiency frontier. Until early 1970s, the country's iron sector was one of the least efficient ones in our sample. It was, however, during the decades of 1970s and 1980s that efficiency measures were adopted and the energy efficiency of the Czechoslovak iron and steel sector increased significantly to, de
Osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts (OCs) are involved in the bone production and resorption, which are crucial in bone homeostasis. OC hyperactivation plays a role in the exaggerated bone resorption of diseases such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteolytic tumor metastases. This work stems from the finding that OCs can express B7h (ICOS-Ligand), which is the ligand of the ICOS T

Of 30 bacterial species tested 18 stimulated DNA synthesis in human blood lymphocytes. The maximum response was after 3-4 days of culture suggesting a mitogenic effect. This was confirmed by the induction of polyclonal antibody production shown by a plaque assay. Most bacterial species increased the DNA synthesis in B-enriched lymphocytes and unseparated lymphocytes but had negligible activity on
