In this study, the reagent 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) and high-performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAEC) were used for carbohydrate characterisation. It was revealed that the DNS reaction is not exclusive to reducing ends as commonly thought, but rather that the reagent reacts with other parts of the carbohydrate molecules as well. HPAEC analysis was used to find how the product distr
Allt eftersom vår förståelse om vår egen miljöpåverkan förändras, så förändras också begräns- ningsstrategierna vi använder för att förhindra och motverka dem. En viktig källa till antropo- gena utsläpp är avloppsvatten eftersom det innehåller patogener, näringsämnen, och mikroför- oreningar. Ett skifte mot källsorterat avloppsvatten under de senaste åren har öppnat dörren för att anpassa och fokuAs our understanding of the impact humans have on the environment changes, so too do the mitigation strategies we employ to prevent it. One major source of anthropogenic pollution is wastewater effluent. A shift towards source separation of wastewater into different streams in recent years has opened a door to tailor treatment to specific types of water. The largest propor- tion of domestic wastew
Europeiska unionen har länge arbetat för att uppnå fri rörlighet på den inre marknaden. På de flesta områden har arbetet nått långt men det finns undantag. Hypotekslånemarknaden inom EU är, trots betydande ekonomisk storlek, inte harmoniserad och ett flertal hinder mot den fria rörligheten av kapital existerar. Fokus i uppsatsen ligger framförallt på harmonisering och införande av en europeisk hThe European Union has long worked to achieve free movement within the internal market. In most areas, work has come a long way but there are exceptions. The mortgage market in the EU, despite significant economic size, is not harmonized, and a number of obstacles to achieve free movement of capital exist. The focus of the essay is primarily on the harmonization and implementation of a European
Uppsatsen undersöker huvudsakligen gällande rätt beträffande tillåtligheten av skriftliga vittnesattester i svenska kommersiella skiljeförfaranden. Undersökningen är inriktad på förutsättningarna för skiljenämnden att tillåta, påbjuda eller förbjuda användandet av skriftliga vittnesattester när en av parterna bestrider att de ska användas. Undersökningens syfte är således att genom den rättsdogmat
Single cell sequencing technologies (scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq, etc.) have revolutionized the study of complex tissues and unique organisms, providing researchers with a much needed species agnostic tool to study biological processes at the cellular level. To date, scRNA-seq technologies are expensive, require sufficient cell quantities, and need biological replicates to avoid batch effects or artifac
BACKGROUND: Diagnosing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains challenging, particularly in older adults. While the Heart Failure Association (HFA)-PEFF and H2FPEF Scores offer structured diagnostic approaches, their clinical utility is still debated. This study aims to compare the diagnostic accuracy of HFpEF Scores versus inclusion criteria used in sodium-glucose cotranspo
Popular Abstract in Swedish För att levande celler ska kunna föröka sig behöver förr eller senare celldelning ske. Detta är en process där en ny cell skapas utifrån den information som finnas lagrad i ursprungscellen. Denna typ av information lagras i cellens DNA. En stor del av DNA:t är ritningar för hur cellens arbetarmolekyler, proteinerna, ska byggas men DNA:t innehåller även information för r
PURPOSE: To evaluate, preclinically, the potential for dose escalation of continuous, hyperfractionated, accelerated radiation therapy (CHART) for non small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we examined the strategy of omission of elective nodal irradiation with and without the application of three-dimensional conformal radiation technology (3DCRT). METHODS AND MATERIALS: 2D, conventional therapy plans we
Vertebral fracture risk is a heritable complex trait. The aim of this study was to identify genetic susceptibility factors for osteoporotic vertebral fracture applying a genome-wide association study (GWAS) approach. The GWAS discovery was based on the Rotterdam Study, a population-based study of elderly Dutch individuals aged >55 years; and comprising 329 cases and 2666 controls with radiographic
Licensed human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines, based on virus-like particles (VLPs) self-assembled from major capsid protein L1, afford type-restricted protection against HPV types 16/18/6/11 (or 16/18 for the bivalent vaccine), which cause 70% of cervical cancers (CxCas) and 90% of genital warts. However, they do not protect against less prevalent high-risk (HR) types causing 30% of CxCa, or cutan
The paper is a sounding of Ulrich Beck's and Edgar Grande's conceptual map of the varieties of second modernity - Western and Non-Western, European and beyond - that makes up today's world. Their mapping is examined in the light of two, striking analytical perspectives associated with Ulrich Beck: everyday 'cosmopolitization' and his call for a methodological cosmopolitanism. A line of inquiry exp
Background. During early mouse development, two extra-embryonic lineages form alongside the future embryo: the trophectoderm (TE) and the primitive endoderm (PrE). Epigenetic changes known to take place during these early stages include changes in DNA methylation and modified histones, as well as dynamic changes in gene expression. Results. In order to understand the role and extent of chromatin-b
Växter behöver ljus för att växa. Ljuset omvandlas till kemisk energi genom fotosyntes i växtens blad. Den kemiska energin kan sedan användas av växten. Ljusabsorptionen i växter har en begränsning. Alltför mycket ljus kommer att orsaka bildning av högenergimolekyler som är skadliga för växterna. Därför måste växter justera mängden ljus som tas upp. Ljuset i miljön förändras ständigt och exponerin
Aims: Pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension (PHpre-cap) has a poor prognosis, especially when caused by pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) associated with systemic sclerosis (SSc-PAH). Whether cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)-based quantification of atrial volumes in PHpre-cap is beneficial in risk assessment is unknown. The aims were to investigate if (i) atrial volumes using CMR are associated
In 2019 the first neutrons will be fired at the ESS plant, at least to its present plan, located in the outskirts of Lund, the brightest neutron facility in the world. In the scientists’ self-images, this kind of high technology and international cooperative knowledge production is entitled Big Science or Global Science. The concept “technoscience” isn’t used. This chapter will discuss if the conc
The purpose of this study is to elucidate affordances and meaning-making processes where students in Compulsory lower secondary education learn to play music together in music class. The data consists of a series of observed music lessons, performances and stimulated recall interviews in two 8th form classes, video recorded in the course of one term. The analysis focuses on students’ and their tea
Commodity currencies have been stood against fiat money in the discourses on the history of money, implying a development from primitive forms of money – which needed anchor in a real commodity to gain acceptance, for instance gold, silver or copper – to a more sophisticated monetary regime based solely on confidence and trust. This paper argues that the idea of a gradual replacement of the former
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen är en studie av hur stöd och service organiseras kring fyra barn med funktionshinder och deras familjer. I denna service är normalt flera olika formella organisationer involverade, som barnhabilitering, förskola/skola/särskola, hjälpmedelscentral, assistentorganisationer, sjukvård m fl.

It is based on 83 interviews with parents and involved staff surrounding four disabled children, with both physical and intellectual disabilities, and between two and nine years old. Further, 15 meetings between parents and staff were observed, primarily serving as background material. The service pr
The purpose of this thesis is to study how the Swedish working-class authors, and close friends, Eyvind Johnson (1900-1976) and Rudolf Värnlund (1900-1945) during the interwar period portray the individual and collectives of different kinds. The studied novels are Eyvind Johnson’s Timans och rättfärdigheten (1925; Timans and righteousness), Bobinack (1932), Romanen om Olof (1934-1937; The novel ab
Popular Abstract in Swedish Arbetet i denna avhandling presenteras i 6 olika delarbeten (artiklar I-VI). Artiklarna I-III behandlar två olika enzymer som bryter ner cyklodextriner, vilka är ringformade molekyler med samma beståndsdelar som i stärkelse (dvs sammanlänkade glukosmolekyler). Dessa s.k. cyklodextrinaser kommer ursprungligen från två bakterier som har isolerats i varma källor på Island.
