Chyle and chylomicrons, obtained after feeding thoracic duct cannulated rats [3H]arachidonic (20:4) and [14C]linoleic acid (18:2) in cream, were injected i.v. into recipient animals. 7.5-15 min after injection, the 14C/3H ratio of the triacylglycerols remaining in plasma was about half of that in the injected chylomicrons, indicating that the chylomicron remnants formed retained relatively more [3

Measures for the reduction of electric energy loads for lighting have predominantly focussed on increasing the efficiency of lighting systems. This efficiency has now reached levels unthinkable a few decades ago. However, a focus on mere efficiency is physically limiting, and does not necessarily ensure that the anticipated energy savings actually materialise. This paper presents a literature surv

This chapter argues against the claim that morally ignorant wrongdoers are open to blame only if they are culpable for their ignorance, and argues against a version of skepticism about moral responsibility that depends on this claim being true. On the view defended, the attitudes involved in blame are typically responses to the features of an action that make it objectionable or unjustifiable from

We present a general method, the δ-test, which establishes functional dependencies given a sequence of measurements. The approach is based on calculating conditional probabilities from vector component distances. Imposing the requirement of continuity of the underlying function, the obtained values of the conditional probabilities carry information on the embedding dimension and variable dependenc

The overall aim of this work was to increase our knowledge of newborn infants and their mothers, gain a better understanding of attachment and the infants' development and identify infants at risk for poorer emotional, social and cognitive development. An interdisciplinary approach was used. Six studies are included in the thesis. Non-nutritive sucking (NNS) and its relation to neurobehavioural st

Aquaporins are integral membrane proteins that function as water channels highly specific for water or as aquaglyceroporins permeable to water as well as small solutes such as glycerol and urea. The model plant Arabidopsis thaliana has 35 genes encoding aquaporin proteins. Identifying the complete set of aquaporins in Arabidopsis constitutes an unique opportunity to comprehensively classify and re

Wireless networked embedded systems are becoming increasingly important in a wide area of technical fields. In this tutorial paper we present recent results on the design of these systems and their use in control applications, that have been developed within the project Reconfigurable Ubiquitous Networked Embedded Systems (RUNES). RUNES is a European Integrated Project with the aim to control comp

Building on a framework introduced by Chaney and Ossa (2013), we construct a task-based model of the firm’s choice of occupational inputs to examine how that choice varies with greater global engagement. We depart from Chaney and Ossa by assuming that more complex tasks are more costly to complete. Within the structure of our model, firms skew employment toward occupations engaged in more complex

Popular Abstract in Swedish Information om smärta, klåda och temperaturförändringar förmedlas till centrala nervsystemet av tunna nervfibrer som leder nervimpulser relativt långsamt. Information om beröring av huden förmedlas istället av grova och snabbt ledande nervfibrer. Det är välkänt att olika känselkvaliteter kan interagera med varandra på olika nivåer i centrala nervsystemet. Vanlig berörinIt is known that stimulation of thin nerve afferents can inhibit itch and pain and that the nociceptive systems have a detailed topographical organisation, with subsystems exhibiting specific excitatory and inhibitory receptive fields. On this basis, a new technique was developed, termed Cutaneous Field Stimulation (CFS), that electrically stimulates thin nerve fibers innervating specific skin fie

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen berör aktivering av koldioxid genom inskjutningsreaktioner i palladium-kol bindningar. Detta har gjorts med komplexen (PCP)PdMe och (PCP)PdCH2CHCH2. Dessa komplex har också använts i katalytisk karboxylering of ZnMe2och tributylallyltenn. Pga. transeffekten är bindningen mellan palladium och metylgruppen kraftigt försvagad vilket visar sig i det långa bindn

Drawing on a combination of empirical industry observations and management literature, this document at- tempts to shed some light on the usage of the term ‘convergence’ that can be identified within the security sector. The aim is to provide both a typology of definitions and a discussion of some of the strategic implica- tions of different types of convergence. A basic distinction is made betwee
