Escherichia coli Fimbriae, Bacterial Persistence and Host Response Induction in the Human Urinary Tract

Popular Abstract in Swedish Urinvägsinfektioner (UVI) är en av våra vanligaste infektionssjukdomar och orsakas oftast av bakterien Escherichia coli (E. coli). Infektionernas svårighetsgrad varierar, beroende på samspelet mellan bakterie och värd. Njurbäckeninflammation kan orsaka allvarliga störningar av njurfunktionen och kan till och med vara livshotande. Blåskatarr är en mindre allvarlig sjukdoUrinary tract infections (UTI) are among the most common bacterial infections in humans. Symptomatic UTIs may be acute, recurrent or chronic but the most frequent form of UTI is asymptomatic bacteruria (ABU). In ABU, the mucosa remains inert, despite the presence of large bacterial numbers in urine. The difference in disease severity reflects the virulence of the infecting strain and the propensit

This article is about the production of forms like je parlE by Swedish adult learners of French. It will consider the contribution of the Missing Surface Inflection Hypothesis regarding the use of default forms. Based on an analysis of the frequency of surface forms in the input, this study will further show that the variation found in learners’ interlanguage shows some systematicity.

Generative design systems for the industrial design of functional mass producible natural-mathematical forms

Nature provides us with a vast source of inspiration. However, given industrial designers' open-mindedness and inquisitiveness, a surprisingly limited set of nature-derived symbols continues to be popular in this creative discipline. Rather than designing products mimicking nature, it is probably more rewarding designing them based on the natural principles leading to its growth and form. However,

A phonetic pilot study of vocalisations in three cats

538 vocalisations from three domestic cats were collected and used in a phonetic pilot study in order to test some recording and anal- ysis methods normally used with human speech. Based on auditive analysis, the vocalisations were categorised into five types and analysed for duration and F0. The most common type was a combined murmur and miaow. Similar mean type durations were found in all three

A model library for dynamic simulation of liquid food process lines

Ongoing work in developing a general structure and a comprehensive components library aiming at modelling liquid-food process lines is presented. The dynamic component models were developed in an object-oriented library structure based on the dynamic modelling language Modelica using the object-oriented graphical tool Dymola. The models were based on fundamental conservation laws and can simulate

Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Cuprates and Manganites

Abstract In this thesis, the high temperature superconductors (HTSC) La2CuO4+x and Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d and the colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) La1-xSrxMnO3 have been studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. Techniques such as angular resolved photoemission (ARPES), resonant photoemission spectroscopy (RESPES) and x-ray absorption spectroscopy have been applied, using synchrotron radiation. The aim of t

Structure-Activity Relationships in the Oxidation of Alkylaromatics over Metal Oxides

In order to accomplish oxidation of alkylaromatic compounds, both cations, which serve as adsorption centers, and oxygen species of suitable bond strength are needed. When compared to partial oxidation, relatively weakly bonded oxygen species are involved in combustion. On the basis of these criteria, using a simple model of the active ensemble, a relationship between reaction rate and bond streng

David Humes politiska och ekonomiska essäer: Förord

David Humes (1711-1776) essäer om politik och ekonomi som publiceras i denna volym präglas, liksom hela Humes filosofiska verk, av en strävan att göra filosofi till en i historien och erfarenheten förankrad vetenskap om människan. Enligt Hume – den kanske mest tongivande tänkaren inom den skotska upplysningen – hade filosofin i hög grad kommit att präglas av ogrundade antaganden, föreställningar o

Nanoscale Crystal Growth: The Importance of Interfaces and Phase Boundaries Kristallväxt på Nanometer Skala: Vikten av Ytor och Gränser

Popular Abstract in Swedish För material på nanoskalan har ytor och gränser större betydelse för materialets egenskaper än de har för storskaliga material. Detta beror på att yt/volymförhållandet är större för material på nanoskalan än för samma material på större skala. Ett fast material där atomerna sitter i en ordnad struktur eller gitter kallas för kristall. En kristall växer när ?nya? atomer Surfaces and interfaces have a special significance to nanotechnology because the surface/volume ratio of nanomaterials is larger than for bulk materials. Therefore, interfaces of nanomaterials are usually more important to the properties of nanomaterials than for larger scale materials. Furthermore, crystal growth occurs at the interfaces between the growing crystals and the supply media. An unde

Experimental Investigations of an Industrial Lean Premixed Gas Turbine Combustor With High Swirling Flow

In the interest of understanding the prospects and restrictions of fuel flexibility in a prototype industrial gas turbine combustor, an experimental study is performed. Methane is used to characterize standard gas turbine operation; in addition a non-standard fuel is explored, generic syngas (67.5 % hydrogen, 22.5 % carbon monoxide and 10 % methane). Both these gases are also investigated after di

Guldet blev till papper: 1930-talets pressdebatt om svensk penning- och valutapolitik

I september 1931 tvingades Sverige överge guldmyntfoten. Landet bytte myntfot – från guld till papper – med stabilisering av prisnivån som officiellt mål. Det var första och enda gången ett land försökt sig på något sådant. Sverige anses därigenom ha föregripit den inflationsmålspolitik som sedan 1990-talet bedrivs i ett antal länder, däribland Sverige. I denna bok undersöks hur den nya penning-
