Applying in situ surface X-ray diffraction (SXRD) together with on-line mass spectrometry during the CO oxidation over Ru(0001) allows a direct comparison of the reactivity of the non-oxidic state with that of the RuO2(110) covered surface. This comparison reveals that the RuO2(110) surface is a catalytically active phase at least as active as the non-oxidic phase. At high CO and O-2 pressures of
The telecommunication industry has been successful in turning the Internet into a mobile service and stimulating the creation of a new set of networked, remote services. Most of these services now run or are supported by cloud computing platforms. Embracing cloud computing solutions is fundamental for the telecommunication industry to remain competitive. However, there are many legal, regulatory,
Purpose – The performance of service supply chains in terms of service levels and cost efficiency depends not only on the effort of service providers but also on the inputs of sub-contractors and the customer. In this sense, performance-based contracting (PBC) entails increased financial risk for providers. Allocating and managing risk through contractual relationships along the service supply cha
The hybodont form genus Lissodus is taken under revision and found to comprise a number of lineages. Twelve species, stratigraphically extended from the Scythian, Lower Triassic to the Albian, Lower Cretaceous, are retained in Lissodus s.s. Thirteen other species can be included in Lonchidion, here considered as a justified genus, ranging from the Ladinian in the Middle Triassic to the Maastrichti
Objective To avoid negative effects of drug treatment and need for additional medical care, drug treatment must be individualised. Our research group has developed a model for clinical pharmacy which improves several aspects of the patient's drug treatment. This study describes the process behind these improvements, i.e. drug related problems identified by pharmacists within a clinical pharmacy se
Distinct morphologic and clinical features associated with specific chromosomal abnormalities have been described in subgroups of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), which often are losses or gains and only rarely translocations. Among 103 consecutive MDS patients diagnosed and karyotyped at the Albert-Ludwigs University of Freiburg (ALU) between 1993 and 1999, two chronic myelomonocytic leukemias (C
The human DUSP15 gene encodes an uncharacterized 235-amino acid member of the subfamily of small dual specificity protein phosphatases related to the Vaccinia virus VH1 phosphatase. Similar to VHR-related MKPX (VHX) (DUSP22), the predicted protein has an N-terminal myristoylation recognition sequence, and we show here that both are indeed modified by the attachment of a myristate to Gly-2. In reco
Background Despite the fact that severe itch is common in many dermatological diseases, the therapeutic arsenal against itching is limited. From neurophysiological experiments, using a new technique termed cutaneous field stimulation, it is known that acute itch can be effectively relieved by stimulation of cutaneous nociceptors. Methods We tested the effects of cutaneous field stimulation (25 mi
Factor IX is a vitamin K-dependent procoagulant zymogen of a serine protease. In the presence of Ca2+ the active form of factor IX (factor IXa beta) forms a complex with factor VIIIa on suitable phospholipid surfaces such as aggregated platelets. This macromolecular complex rapidly activates factor X. We have previously provided data that suggest an interaction between the NH2-terminal epidermal g
A pilot-plant study, made to clarify whether biological denitrification is a possible and suitable method for nitrate reduction of drinking water in Sweden is presented. The concentration of nitrate-nitrogen in un-treated water was 10–15 mg/l. The reactor was a 1.2 m aluminium tube with a inner diameter of 0.19 m. 0.75 m was filled with Filtralite®, expanded clay, through which the nitrate-contami
Stormwater pollution is known to alter river water quality, but its impacts on aquatic biodiversity remain poorly understood. This study investigates the effects of stormwater runoff on water quality and benthic macroinvertebrate communities in the Rönne å river, southern Sweden. A field-based study was conducted in rural and urban river sections, comparing pipe discharge sites with nearby referen
The Peace Agreement between Farc-EP and Juan Manuel Santos is the result of a complex dialogue, not only between the signing parties but also between the victims, the opposition, the international community and the civil society. The agreement entails a narrative that recognizes the armed conflict and proposes a path to end it while bringing peace and reconciliation. The settlement incorporates le
Nationals of Member States, including companies and firms that are formed in accordance with the laws of a Member State, are granted the right to freedom of establishment through Art 43 and 48 in the EC Treaty. However, as the legal situation appears today, this freedom of establishment is restricted. In accordance with the freedom of establishment, natural persons are entitled to incorporate comp
Titel: “Jag tar aldrig av mig jobbhatten”, en kvalitativ studie om hur chefer uppfattar sin psykosociala ohälsa. Nivå: Kandidatuppsats i Service Management, VT 2019 Universitet: Lunds Universitet, Campus Helsingborg, Institutionen för Service Management Handledare: Johan Alvehus Syfte och frågeställning: Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka den organisatoriska- och sociala ohälsa som exis
Using advanced QM/MM methods, the surprisingly negligible shift of the lowest-lying bright electronic excitation of the deprotonated p-coumaric acid (pCA(-)) within the photoactive yellow protein (PYP) is shown to stem from a subtle balance between hypsochromic and bathochromic effects. More specifically, it is found that the change in the excitation energy as a consequence of the disruption of th
