Popular Abstract in English Microbes are present everywhere in the environment and have quite an intimate relationship with humans. Much of our perception about microbes is as disease causing agents but on the other hand it is also the microbes that present cure for the disease. Besides using microbes for traditional applications, for example for providing antibiotics, production of fermented foodDemands for efficient, greener, economical and sustainable production of chemicals, materials and energy have led to development of industrial biotechnology as a key technology area to provide such products from bio-based raw materials from agricultural-, forestry- and related industrial residues and by-products. For the bio-based industry, it is essential to develop a number of building blocks or

In the past decade, the molecular basis for most of the blood group systems has been investigated intensively. Many blood group genes have been cloned and the polymorphisms of clinically significant blood group systems have been elucidated. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular genetic variation found in various phenotypes and in different ethnic populations, to identify new allel

Different kind of classifications system for distal radius fractures has been published for almost a century. Very few of these has been validated. AOs classification in its three main group has a good observer agreement and is quiet simple as so. A evidence based Swedish treatment algorithm is proposed and good uniform outcome score (DASH) is demonstrated.

Popular Abstract in Swedish När en dressing tillreds används ofta olja, vinäger och kryddor. Även om dressingen skakas ordentligt kommer den efter ett tag att dela upp sig i två lösningar, en med olja och en med vinäger. Ett tvåfassystem har bildats där kryddorna fördelar sig mellan olje- och vinägerfasen. Inom biokemiforskning används tvåfassystem av vatten och polymerer. Polymerer är stora molekThis thesis deals with proteins containing peptide tags for improved partitioning in aqueous two-phase systems. Qualitatively the peptide-tagged protein partitioning could be predicted from peptide data, i.e. partitioning trends found for peptides were also found for the peptide-tagged proteins. However, full effect of the tag as expected from peptide partitioning was not found in the tagged prote

Rapporten redovisar resultatet från en utrymningsövning som genomfördes från ett 8-vagnars tunnelbanetåg som stannat i en tunnel. Orsaken till att tåget stannat skulle vara brand i tåget eller i tunneln. Försöket genomfördes en natt mellan den 20 och 21 maj 1999 i tunnelbanan i Stockholm. Platsen för försöket var mellan stationerna Stadion och Östermalms torg. Totalt medverkade 143 försökspersoner

Mechanisms that govern transport, accumulation and toxicity of persistent pollutants at interfaces in aquatic ecosystems are the foci of this thesis. Specific attention is paid to humic substances, their occurrence, composition, and role in exchange processes across interfaces. It was concluded that: Composition of humic substances in aquatic surface microlayers is different from that of the subsu

Denna antologi i socialgerontologi är den första i sitt slag på svenska. Socialgerontologi är en tvärvetenskap som har en bred kontaktyta mot många ämnesområden: sociologi, psykologi, vårdvetenskap, social omsorg, historia, antropologi, etnologi, ekonomi m.m. Boken Socialgerontologi utgår från svenska förhållanden och erbjuder ett stort och varierat urval kapitel om åldrande och äldre. Bl.a. kan

Strength grading of Norway spruce side boards in the wet state was investigated. For a sample of 58 boards of dimensions 25×120×3000 mm3, density and dynamic modulus of elasticity in the axial direction, MOEdyn, were determined in the wet state. The boards were then split into two parts and the procedure of determining MOEdyn was repeated both before and after the boards were dried to a target
