Popular Abstract in Swedish Människan har under mycket lång tid använt enzymer vid tillverkning av livsmedel, bland annat vid syrning av mjölk, jäsning av bröd och bryggning av öl och vin. Man använde sig då av hela levande organismer och först på slutet av 1800-talet kunde den aktiva substansen isoleras. Dessa aktiva substanser fick samlingsnamnet enzym, vilket kommer från grekiska och betyder "iThe influence of different reaction parameters on enzyme selectivity was investigated. The reaction conditions studied were solvent dependence, water activity and reaction temperature. The improved selectivity was observed as higher synthetic yields in a-chymotrypsin and subtilisin catalyzed peptide synthesis respectively, and as higher enantioselectivity in the asymmetric reduction of ketones cat

The aim of this short paper is to present an ongoing joint research project, Human Factors in Air Navigation Services (HUFA), between the Swedish Civil Aviation Administration and Lund University. Results from the study will only be given very briefly. The project focuses on human and organizational factors and safety in air traffic control.

The liberty of religion is not easy to define or regulate. It is closely connected to other liberties and rights. Starting from individual liberty, the consequence will be a right to religion or from religion, the right to change religion or confession, and the right to transition from religion to no religion, or from no religion to religion. It is obvious that the state, the religious denominatio

This paper describes a radio-tracking study of Osmoderma eremita, a large Scarabaeid beetle, living in hollow trees. The study seems to be the first in which radio telemetry has been used with a flying insect in the field. Some 74 adult beetles were tagged with radio transmitters weighing 0.48-0.52 1, and having a nominal battery life of 12-20 days. Transmissions were detected at ranges of up to 3

Background: There are several risk factors for the colonisation, infection and spreading of antibiotic resistant bacteria among elderly residents of nursing homes. An updated estimate of the native prevalence of antimicrobial resistance in uropathogens among Swedish nursing home residents is needed. Methods: Urine specimens were collected for culture and antimicrobial susceptibility testing agains

Popular Abstract in Swedish Nedisningar under Weichsel-istiden kring floden Notec i nordvästra Polen. Inlandsisar är en viktig komponent i jordens klimatsystem. Deras utbredning och rörelsemekanismer styrs till stor del av klimatet samtidigt som isarna i sin tur också påverkar klimatsystemet. Genom kunskap om hur inlandsisarna växte till och smälte av under den senaste istiden kan man utvärdera oThis thesis presents results of studies on the ice flow pattern and ice movement mechanism during the Weichselian glaciations in the middle Notec River area, NW Poland. A new lithostratigraphy of the study area has been established, based on correlation of stratigraphical position, clast lithology, fabrics and grain size composition of till units. The lithostratigraphy covers two glacial advances

Background People with serious respiratory illness frequently have a high symptom burden and may be prescribed supplemental oxygen therapy with the aims of reducing the severity of breathlessness and improving health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the effectiveness of oxygen therapy versus no oxygen on 1) breathlessness, 2) HRQoL and 3) ad

This chapter analyses the role that 'ordre public' and morality exceptions can play in the granting of patents on inventions in the field of human germline editing and the consequences of this policy option. In order to provide the context for such an analysis, the chapter will, first, provide an overview of the current patent landscape for relevant genome editing technologies, drawing attention t

The base (BOP) and the top (TOP) of the world income pyramid represent the poor people and the people from developed countries, respectively. About two-fifths of the world population can be categorized as poor. Poverty is a trap because children born to poor parents are likely to grow up to be poor adults. In recent years, a poverty reduction approach that combines business development with povert

Popular Abstract in Swedish BAKGRUND Fokus riktas allt mer mot försörjningskedjan och allt mindre mot det enskilda företaget i takt med att konkurrens mellan enskilda företag ersätts av konkurrens mellan försörjningskedjor. Det är emellertid endast det enskilda företaget som kan fatta beslut och vidta åtgärder, men dessa beslut och åtgärder måste idag ske utifrån ett kedjeperspektiv. Med ökat foBackground Today's modern, industrialized society is based on globalization, specialization and mass-production. It is a society dependent upon highly integrated, continuously ongoing supply chain flows. Disruptions in those flows may cause devastating negative consequences, both for the individual company, for the supply chain, and for the society at large. Purpose and objectives The purpose o

Frågor kring tillit i det digitala, tycks det, ställs oftare och oftare: Hur ska vi hantera integritets- och övervakningsfrågor? Hur ska vi hantera den mätbarhet som följer av vår digitaliserade tillvaro? Vad är det som avgör vilka tjänster vi litar på och vilka vi inte litar på, i vilken mån spelar den tekniska säkerheten en roll? Liknande frågor kan ställas om vilka kunskapsinstitutioner vi lita

Frostnedbrytning av betong kan få allvarliga konsekvenser för en konstruktions säkerhet, beständighet och funktionsduglighet eftersom betongens hållfasthet försämras. Frostskador uppstår vanligtvis i konstruktioner med hög fuktbelastning och som periodvis utsätts för frostangrepp. Olika typer av betongskador, vilka kan misstänkas vara frostrelaterade, har påträffats i svenska vattenkraftsanläggninFrost deterioration of concrete can result in severe consequences to the safety, durability and functionality of a structure since it impairs the strength of the concrete. Frost damage may occur to structures that are in contact with water and subjected to frost action. Different types of concrete damage, which are suspected to be frost related, have been observed in concrete structures in Swedish
