The stability of dispersions containing charged particles may obviously be regulated by salt. In some systems, the effective charge, as measured by the potential some small distance away from the particles, can have a sign opposite to the bare surface charge. If charge reversal takes place, there is typically a salt concentration regime within which colloidal stability increases with added salt. T
Crop pests and diseases (CPDs) are emerging threats to global food security, but trends in the occurrence of pests and diseases remain largely unknown due to the lack of observations for major crop producers. Here, on the basis of a unique historical dataset with more than 5,500 statistical records, we found an increased occurrence of CPDs in every province of China, with the national average rate
Background:Uveal melanoma is treated by either enucleation (removal of the eye) or local eye-sparing therapies, depending on tumor size and whether there are signs of extrascleral growth. Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is a novel imaging modality that provides high-resolution images of the molecular composition of tissues.Objective:In this study, the feasibility of PA imaging for uveal melanomas and d
BACKGROUND: Individuals with multiple islet autoantibodies are at increased risk for clinical type 1 diabetes and may proceed gradually from stage to stage complicating the recruitment to secondary prevention studies. We evaluated multiple islet autoantibody positive subjects before randomisation for a clinical trial 1 month apart for beta-cell function, glucose metabolism and continuous glucose m
One way of reducing environmental pollution is to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels by replacing them with solar radiation (Rs), which is one of the main sources of clean and renewable energy. In this study, daily Rs values at seven meteorological stations in Iran (Ahvaz, Isfahan, Kermanshah, Mashhad, Bandar Abbas, Kerman and Tabriz) over 2010-2019 were estimated using empirical models, suppor
Energy-efficient selective physisorption driven C2H2 separation from industrial C2-C1 impurities such as C2H4, CO2 and CH4 is of great importance in the purification of downstream commodity chemicals. We address this challenge employing a series of isoreticular cationic metal-organic frameworks, namely iMOF-nC (n=5, 6, 7). All three square lattice topology MOFs registered higher C2H2 uptakes versu
Soil microbial communities perform vital ecosystem functions, such as the decomposition of organic matter to provide plant nutrition. However, despite the functional importance of soil microorganisms, attribution of ecosystem function to particular constituents of the microbial community has been impeded by a lack of information linking microbial function to community composition and structure. He
Research on telomeres in the fields of ecology and evolution has been rapidly expanding over the last two decades. This has resulted in the formulation of a multitude of, often name-given, hypotheses related to the associations between telomeres and life-history traits or fitness-facilitating processes (and the mechanisms underlying them). However, the differences (or similarities) between the var
Orangelavar, släktet Caloplaca i vid bemärklelse, är erkänt svåra och många. Dessutom har släktet delats upp i en mängd olika släkten vilket gör det än mer förvirrande. Ovanpå det beskrivs nya arter på löpande band. Här ges dock en översikt av de arter i släktet Blastenia som förekommer i Norden.
Dietary fiber is considered a strong intestinal protector, but we do not know whether dietary fiber protects against the long-lasting mucosal damage caused by ionizing radiation. To evaluate whether a fiber-rich diet can ameliorate the long-lasting pathophysiological hallmarks of the irradiated mucosa, C57BL/6J mice on a fiber-rich bioprocessed oat bran diet or a fiber-free diet received 32 Gray i
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka vad som händer när en ny musikpedagogisk idé/metod införs och etableras i ett sammanhang där det redan finns en dominerande metod. Undersökningen består utav en kvalitativ forskningsstudie med djupintervjuer av två danska Suzuki teacher trainers och med en narrativ analysmetod som verktyg. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten är ett sociokulturellt perspektiv ochThe aim of this study is to scrutinize what happens when a new music pedagogical approach is introduced in a context already dominated by another method. This is a qualitative research study using a narrative analysis method on two in depth interviews with two Danish Suzuki teacher trainers. The theoretical point of view is a sociocultural perspective and mainly cultural-historical activity theory
Attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy (ATAS) allows for the study of electron dynamics in atoms and molecules with attosecond time resolution. Previous works reported in the literature have made use of ATAS to image and control such dynamics in the single-channel ionization continuum of helium; in particular, in the vicinity of the doubly excited autoionizing states lying between the N=1and
En presentation av mitt avhandlingsprojekt.
Syftet med denna studie är att analysera hur musikutbildningsprogrammet El Sistema vid Malmö Kulturskola beskrivs i media och officiella dokument (2011–2017). Detta görs genom en ideologikritisk dokumentanalys och med kritisk realism som teoretiskt ramverk. Resultatet visar att El Sistema beskrivs som en riktad politisk insats med aspirationer på att vara ett integrationsprojekt, verksamt i mångku
The purpose of the study is to explore how a multinational enterprise can use social innovations to drive change and solve grand challenges in an emerging market context. This paper brings market-shaping literature into a sustainability context, particularly by studying the implementation of social innovations in an emerging market context. Specifically, the study involves an in-depth qualitative
We have determined spectral phases of Ne autoionizing states from extreme ultraviolet and midinfrared attosecond interferometric measurements and ab initio full-electron time-dependent theoretical calculations in an energy interval where several of these states are coherently populated. The retrieved phases exhibit a complex behavior as a function of photon energy, which is the consequence of the
This paper applies the peridynamic continuum mechanics theory on a new type of material known as harmonic-structured materials. Using the Peridigm software, rapid uniaxial elongation is simulated on a peridynamic model of a thin bimodal harmonic-structured metal sheet. Mechanical wave initiation, propagation, and reflection, as well as fracture initiation and propagation are successfully simulated
When producing intimidating aggressive vocalizations, humans and other animals often extend their vocal tracts to lower their voice resonance frequencies (formants) and thus sound big. Is acoustic size exaggeration more effective when the vocal tract is extended before, or during, the vocalization, and how do listeners interpret within-call changes in apparent vocal tract length? We compared perce
PURPOSE: To investigate the acute exercise effects of dynamic standing exercise on blood glucose and blood lactate among children and adolescents with cerebral palsy who are nonambulant.METHODS: Twenty-four participants with cerebral palsy who are nonambulant performed 30 minutes of dynamic standing exercise using a motorized device enabling assisted passive movements in an upright weight-bearing
