Popular Abstract in Swedish Stärkelse och cellulosa är naturligt förekommande polymerer av glukos. Dessa polymerer har varit viktiga resurser för människan genom historien. Stärkelse är en viktig näringskälla som det finns rikligt av i sädessorter och potatis. Cellulosa är en viktig komponent i byggmaterial (t.ex. trä), textilier (t.ex. bomullsfibrer), och papper. Stärkelse används dessutom som baStarches and celluloses can be chemically modified in order to affect their physiochemical properties. Modification of these carbohydrate polymers entails derivatising their free hydroxyl groups with functional groups. Which properties are obtained depends on the nature of the functional groups as well as on how they are distributed throughout the polymeric structure of the carbohydrate. Unfortuna

Svensk universitetsgrammatik för nybörjare behandlar begreppet grammatik ur olika synvinklar. De inledande kapitlen ägnas åt genomgångar av svenskans språkljud, böjningslära och ordbildning. I de efterföljande kapitlen ges ingående beskrivningar av frasstruktur, primära satsdelar och fullständig satslösning, liksom av grammatikens största enheter, meningar, makrosyntagmer och yttranden. Men förfat

Popular Abstract in Swedish Glukos är den främsta energikällan för de flesta celler i kroppen. Det är av stor vikt att mängden glukos hålls på en jämn nivå, eftersom framförallt våra celler i hjärnan är mycket känsliga för stora variationer av glukoshalten i blodet. Regleringen av mängden glukos i blodet kontrolleras av hormonen insulin och glukagon. Insulin utsöndras från beta-celler och glukagonType-2 diabetes is characterized by impaired insulin secretion associated with excess glucagon release. Exocytosis of insulin- or glucagon-containing granules is initiated by Ca2+-influx through voltage-dependent Ca2+-channels and is modulated by the second messengers such as cAMP. Membrane capacitance measurements were used in this study to investigate the cellular mechanisms behind cAMP-regulate

Reducing poverty and social exclusion is one of the main challenges for ensuring social cohesion in Europe. The research project COPE – Combating Poverty in Europe: Re-organising Active Inclusion through Participatory and Integrated Modes of Multilevel Governance’ – analyses trends of poverty and social exclusion in Europe, and examines the dynamics of minimum income protection policies that poten

In this thesis the action of the Thermomyces lanuginosa lipase (TLL) on "real" substrates, that is, lipid aggregates - vesicles, micelles, emulsions, gels and liquid crystals is discussed. Even for a pure triolein, the system becomes quite complex as the lipolytic process starts, both in terms of structure and composition, involving 5 additional components - diolein (DO), monoolein (MO), oleic aci

When implementing low frequency antennas in small devices, e.g., mobile phones using DVB-H, a large mismatch is inevitable. If a impedance tuning unit is introduced reflection losses and noise are reduced while gain is improved. A ITU consisting of 6 switched capacitances and 2 fixed LTCC inductors is studied. Simulations show that since a VSWR = 10 mismatch is reduced to better than VSWR = 2, the

Concatenation of several conventional convolutional encoders is a both powerful and practical method to obtain encoding schemes that are attractive for use in communication systems where very low error probabilities are needed. This thesis is devoted to woven convolutional codes, a construction where the constituent codes are woven together in a manner that resembles the structure of a fabric. A

The week following Halloween in 2006, a cultural event called ‘The altar of the dead’ was held in an urban park in the centre of the Swedish city of Malmö. Encouraging people to contemplate a deceased loved one by leaving gifts, by reciting poems, or simply by reminiscing at a confessionless altar placed in the public park, this event invited an inquiry into the relation between nature, space, and

The Swedish Network for European Legal Studies is happy to announce the third volume in this series of annual publications which acts as a forum for the publication of studies on European law by Swedish scholars. The annual this year focuses on competition aspects of Intellectual property law, and contains peer-reviewed articles aimed at spreading Swedish legal research on European law to a wide i

Popular Abstract in Swedish Protein H - ett bakteriellt ytprotein med förmåga att binda till olika proteiner hos människa Bakgrund I vårt dagliga liv omges vi av bakterier av många olika slag. Flertalet av dessa är normalt ofarliga och många utgör den så kallade normalfloran hos människa. En del bakterier kan under vissa förhållanden ge upphov till infektion och sjukdom, men för att åstadkomma dSeveral bacterial species express surface proteins with affinity for the Fc part of human IgG. This thesis describes evolutionary and functional studies of protein H, an IgGFc-binding surface protein of the human pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes. By using peptide mapping and NMR analysis the IgGFc-binding region of protein G, a surface protein of group C and G streptococci, was identified. Various
