The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed in order to identify the respiratory syncytial virus by using the reference strain. The high sensitivity and specificity obtained show the PCR utility for detecting the RSV genoma and its application on the diagnosis.
This paper focuses on the use of the Compound Past (CP) found in a set of epistolary letters from the 18th and 19th centuries' Uruguay. It is claimed that the CP already at this time encodes situations that are conceptualized within a temporal frame of indeterminacy. All the cases of CP in 66 letters are analyzed according to its contexts – with or without temporal determinants; in colocational en
The purpose of this article is to attempt to establish the ideological positions of the most important representatives of the mediation in Sweden of the works of Mexican writer Octavio Paz. First, the basic outlines of this mediation will be drawn to establish the most important actors by focusing on translators who are also authors of paratexts in books by Paz that have been edited by Swedish edi
Artikeln diskuterar möjligheterna och begränsningarna i äldres tillgänglighet till i IT-samhället under senare delen av 1990-talet. Resultatet från en intervjuundersökning (n=186)visar att äldre IT-användare kan kategoriseras i beroende, akriva och avancerade användare och att detta formas av tillgången, förmågan, förväntningarna, självbilden och dagliga restriktioner (sociala kontexten.
Abstract in Spanish En “La parte de Fate”, la tercera parte de 2666 de Roberto Bolaño, la televisión no sólo constituye un elemento relevante de la realidad representada sino también influye en la estructura del texto. La tele se enciende muy a menudo y a veces la narración da detallada cuenta de lo que se ve —fragmentos de programas o películas, incluso con el sonido apagado. La estructura del fl

Radiolabelled monoclonal IgM rheumatoid factors, four from patients with type II essential cryoglobulinaemia and one originating from a patient with rheumatoid arthritis, were tested for binding to group A, B, C and G streptococci and Escherichia coli. Two of the preparations exhibited different binding patterns for the streptococci, whereas the remaining three were not reactive. The binding of on
This paper explores a novel metaethical theory according to which value judgments express conditional beliefs held by those who make them. Each value judgment expresses the belief that something is the case on condition that something else is the case. The paper aims to reach a better understanding of this view and to highlight some of the challenges that lie ahead. The most pressing of these revo
Protein homeostasis in cells, proteostasis, is maintained through several integrated processes and pathways and its dysregulation may mediate pathology in many diseases including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Oxidative stress, heat shock proteins, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and its response, i.e. unfolded protein response (UPR), play key roles in proteostasis but their involvement in t
This contribution analyses the presence of Economic History in the undergraduate study programmes of some European countries. The objective is to offer a counterpoint to the Spanish experience, which will be addressed by other papers and is also likely the most known framework for most of the participants. We look at the total offer of Economic History courses, as well as at whether they are onl
Abstract in French Cet article décrit un système pour définir et évaluer les stades de développement en français langue étrangère. L’évaluation de tels stades correspond à l’identification de la fréquence de certains phénomènes lexicaux et grammaticaux dans la production des apprenants et comment ces fréquences changent en fonction du temps. Les problèmes à résoudre dans cette démarche sont triple
Abstract The purpose of this essay is to investigate, from the points of view of the novels Nada (1944) by Carmen Laforet and Los girasoles ciegos (2004) by Alberto Méndez, the perspective of the future toward the Spanish postwar period. Both novels take place during the Spanish postwar but were written in two different eras. Considering both periods, it is possible to evaluate whether the elapsed
Marcel Prousts stora romansvit ”På spaning efter den tid som flytt” är en roman många känner till, åtminstone till namnet, men som få har läst i sin helhet. Nu, hundra år efter att delarna började publiceras i Frankrike, är det intressant att se vad en svensk läsare möter i fall man börjar närma sig verket. Denna uppsats fokuserar på vad som beskrivs i mer populärvetenskapliga sammanhang samt på k
