The isolation of mitochondria from potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum L.) is described, but the methodology can easily be adapted to other storage tissues. After homogenization of the tissue, filtration and differential centrifugation, the key step is a Percoll density gradient centrifugation. The Percoll gradient contains two parts: a bottom part containing Percoll in 0.3 M sucrose, and a slightly
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) establishes a right for individuals to get access to information about automated decision-making based on their personal data. However, the application of this right comes with caveats. This paper investigates how European insurance companies have navigated these obstacles. By recruiting volunteering insurance customers, requests for information about
A 1-m normal-incidence monochromator has been designed and installed on a bending-magnet beam line at the MAX storage ring in Lund. The optical properties of the beam line have been investigated via ray-tracing studies and with flux measurements of the beam line-monochromator combination. A resolution of 0.9 Å at 919.8 Å was measured in first-order diffraction with an argon hollow-cathode lamp for
The prothrombin gene G20210A mutation and the platelet glycoprotein IIIa polymorphism PlA2 have been shown to be associated with thromboembolic disease. We wondered if mutations were overrepresented in patients with central retinal vein occlusion. We studied 129 consecutive patients with a history of central retinal vein occlusion. We analysed for the prothrombin gene G20210A mutation and the plat
We measured a set of π±Σ∓, π0Σ0, and π−Σ0 invariant mass spectra below and above the K¯N mass threshold in K−-induced reactions on deuteron. The measured πΣ mass spectral shape is well reproduced via the two-step mechanism, i.e., a neutron knocked out at a forward angle from a deuteron by an incident K−, with the K¯ recoiled backward reacting with the residual nucleon to produce π and Σ. We deduce
Nonlinear optical response of Au metallic nanoparticles, synthesized and embedded in sapphire by using ion implantation, as a function of their size and shape is studied. The size of the Au NPs was varied by controlling the annealing time of the gold-irradiated sapphire in a reducing atmosphere. Their shape was changed from approximately spherical to prolate by swift heavy-ion irradiation using Si
We systematically fabricate devices and analyse data for vertical InAs/(In)GaAsSb nanowire Tunnel Field-Effect Transistors, to study the influence of source dopant position and level on their device performance. The results show that delaying the introduction of dopants further in the GaAsSb source segments improved the transistor metrics (subthreshold swing and the ON-current performance), due to
Of concern is the fractional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (fKP) equation and its lump solution. As in the classical Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation, the fKP equation comes in two versions: fKP-I (strong surface tension case) and fKP-II (weak surface tension case). We prove the existence of nontrivial lump solutions for the fKP-I equation in the energy subcritical case α>45 by means of variational method
This report evaluates a newly made investment in FIB, First Response Crew manager in Medelpad´s Rescue service Association (MRF). The focus is to by interviews and statistics present a picture of the current situation of how well FIB is working. The results of the interviews were categorized into different themes from which the results were later discussed together with the results from the statis
According to traditional trade theory, trade reduces inequality between the rich and the poor. However, since the beginning of the 1980s, a constantly rise in within-country inequality has been observed in many developed and developing countries. With the rapidly increasing globalization during the same period in mind, a natural question to ask is whether the two phenomenon are linked. In this pap
The European Corn Borer (ECB) has the potential to markedly reduce the yield from corn plants and in turn affect the economy of farmers. The human world population is increasing and there is consequently an increased number of mouths to feed on a limited area, the Earth, and this makes this an important topic to study. It is thus important to find out whether the ECB likely will be an important pe
