Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling beskrivs sambanden mellan funktion i centrala delar av näthinnan, och dess struktur, vid några valda ärftliga och förvärvade sjukdomstillstånd i näthinnan. Denna jämförelse är möjlig genom den relativt nya utvecklingen av multifokalt ERG (mfERG), med vars hjälp centrala näthinnans funktion kan bedömas, samt optisk koherens tomografi (OCT), med vilken In this thesis, retinal function in general, as well as central retinal function and structure are described in selected forms of acquired and hereditary retinal disorders, in order to improve our understanding of underlying pathogenic mechanisms. This comparison has been made possible during the last years, through the relatively recent development of multifocal ERG (mfERG) and optical coherence

This work reports the morphology of two-phase latex particles prepared by semi-continuous seed emulsion polymerization of styrene in the presence of polar poly(methyl methacrylate), PMMA, seed particles, using different conditions of non-polar styrene feed rate, rate of initiation, seed particle concentration and temperature of polymerization. The expected latex particle morphology at thermodynami

We construct Gelfand-Tzetlin coordinates for the unitary orthosymplectic supergroup UOSp(k(1)/2k(2)). This extends a previous construction for the unitary supergroup U(k(1)/k(2)). We focus on the angular Gelfand-Tzetlin coordinates, i.e., our coordinates stay in the space of the supergroup. We also present a generalized Gelfand pattern for the supergroup UOSp(k(1)/2k(2)) and discuss various implic

Ferrans and Powers’ Quality of Life Index (QLI) defines and assesses quality of life (QoL) in terms of importance-weighted life satisfaction. This study assessed the value of such weights and explored the relationship between weighted and unweighted (satisfaction only) scores and single-item rated overall life satisfaction (LS) and QoL. Data were collected by a postal survey to 81 Parkinson’s dise

1. In this study, we examine how a 7-year period of expanding submerged stonewort (Chara spp.) vegetation during a shift from turbid to clear water in a shallow lake influenced individual growth and population size structure of perch (Perca fluviatilis). We expected that a shift from phytoplankton to macrophyte dominance and clear water would improve feeding conditions for perch during a critical

Utförlig beskrivning av hårdvara för datoriserad styrning och övervakning av installationer. Rapporten är av beskrivande karaktär främst för att det är svårt att jämföra olika fabrikats lösningar av samma funktion. Komplettering av R114:1980 med programvara

A method is described which can be used to calculate dynamic gear tooth force and bearing forces. The model includes elastic bearings. The gear mesh stiffness and the path of contact are determined using the deformations of the gears and the bearings. This gives contact outside the plane-of-action and a time-varying working pressure angle. In a numerical example it is found that the only important

We review a neck method to explore the cellular functions in multicellular system by application of the perforated patch-clamp technique to intact pancreatic islet of Langerhans. Using this approach, the integrity of the islet is preserved and intercellular communication via gap junctions and paracrine processes are maintained. 13 using low-resistance patch electrodes, rapid current responses can

The MAKEDEP model is designed to produce the time series of atmospheric deposition and nutrient uptake and cycling needed by dynamic soil chemistry models such as SAFE. A range of new features were implemented in the MAKEDEP model including separate treatment of several tree compartments (e.g. root, stem, bark, branch, canopy) and variable nutrient content in the different compartments. The mo

Effects of different bioturbators on recruitment of several nuisance algae, Anaboena spp. (Cyanophyta), Microcystis spp. (Cyanophyta), and Gonvostomum semen (Raphidophyta), from sediment to water were studied in a long-term laboratory experiment. Natural sediment, where macrofauna larger than 1 mm had been removed, was added to 18 aquaria. To each of six aquaria, individuals of Asellus aquaticus (

Iohexol, a newly developed non-ionic contrast agent, has been recently documented as a reliable glomerular filtration marker. This study describes the age dependence of the single injection clearance of iohexol in a sample of healthy male volunteers ranging from 21 to 77 years of age. In parallel, renal plasma flow was studied by measuring the total clearance of p-amino hippuric acid administered

A ferricyanide mediated microbial biosensor for ethanol detection was prepared by surface modification of a glassy carbon electrode. The selectivity of the whole Gluconobacter oxydans cell biosensor for ethanol determination was greatly enhanced by the size exclusion effect of a cellulose acetate (CA) membrane. The use of a CA membrane increased the ethanol to glucose sensitivity ratio by a factor
