Hosts can in principle employ two different strategies to defend themselves against parasites: resistance and tolerance. Animals typically exhibit considerable genetic variation for resistance (the ability to limit parasite burden). However, little is known about whether animals can evolve tolerance (the ability to limit the damage caused by a given parasite burden). Using rodent malaria in labora
The objective of this paper is to investigate how the combustion chamber design will influence combustion parameters and emissions in a natural gas SI engine. Ten different geometries were tried on a converted Volvo TD102 engine. For the different combustion chambers emissions and the pressure in the cylinder have been measured. The pressure in the cylinder was then used in a one-zone heat-releas
Thermal radiation sometimes is the dominating heat transfer mode in combustion chambers and furnaces and therefore in the design of many relevant industrial facilities prediction of it is necessary. During previous years many research efforts in the radiative heat transfer field have originated and many methods and models from simple to complex have been developed. However, the field is still open
We have successfully embedded a metal gate in-between two resonant tunneling double barrier heterostructures (RTD), thus realizing a three dimensional resonant tunneling transistor. The gate is placed 30 nm above and 100 below the two RTD's, respectively. The asymmetric gate allows for a unique control of the current-voltage characteristics, not only controlling the peak current but also the peak
When adapting environments for the physically disabled, it is important to encourage and activate not only the person concerned, but also other people involved or affected. A computer aided planning tool has been developed to support the participation of all persons involved, as well as supporting the planner’s (e.g. an occupational therapist) design of the environment. The prototype development a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Membranproteiner är tämligen svåra att digerera med enzym som trypsin. Mindre specifika enzym såsom elastase och pepsin har dock visat sig mer effektiva. Databassökningar med dessa icke-tryptiska peptider är mindre verkningsfulla pga avsaknaden av laddning vid peptidens N-terminal och C-terminal samt brist på sekvensspecificitet. Vi beskriver en metod med specifik N-teMembrane proteins are fairly refractory to digestion especially by trypsin. Less specific proteases like elastase and pepsin are much more effective. However database searching using non-tryptic peptides is much less effective due to the lack of charge localisation at the N- and C-termini and the absence of sequence specificity. We describe a method for N-terminal specific labelling of peptides fr
A framework for operating procedure synthesis in batch processes was presented in part on of this paper. In this part, we present, iTOPS (intelligent tool for operating procedure synthesis), a knowledge based system for implementing the concepts outlined in the framework. iTOPS has been developed in Gensym's G2 expert system shell. The architecture of iTOPS, that consists of components that closel
The paper suggests a method for motion generating and stabilization with application to dynamical models for underactuated ships.
Intermittently administered PTH is known to increase bone mass in osteoporosis models. We studied its effects in bone repair and implant fixation, using histological and mechanical techniques in rats. In a bone chamber, PTH substantially increased the density of the new-formed bone, whereas there was only a minor effect on the pre-existing bone in the L5 vertebra or femur. Considering that PTH inc
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Coeliaki eller glutenenteropati (GE) är beteckningar på ett så kallat malabsorptionstillstånd, dvs ett tillstånd med brister (som kan omfatta bl a B-vitaminer, järn och kalk) och/eller diarré till följd av inflammation i tarmen. Vid GE sitter inflammationen i slemhinnan i början av tunntarmen. GE omnämndes första gången av Araeteus i Rom 2:a århundradet efter The prevalence of coeliac disease (CD) was initially estimated to 1/1537. Based on serial analysis [GA and endomysial antibodies (EMA)], the prevalence was 6/1970 (0.30%). In autoimmune chronic hepatitis 5.4% and in IDDM 2.6% had CD, why regular screening for CD in these conditions seems motivated. The frequency of IgA-GA positivity was increased in alcoholic liver disease, PBC, primary sclerosin
The monotone rearrrangement algorithm was introduced by Hardy, Littlewood and Po ́lya as a sorting device for functions. As- suming that x is a monotone function and that an estimate xn of x is given, consider the monotone rearrangement xˆn of xn. This new estimator is shown to be uniformly consistent. Under suitable as- sumptions, pointwise limit distribution results for xˆn are obtained. The fra
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett ökade förbrukningen av fossila bränslen kommer att accelerera den globala uppvärmningen med oöverskådlig inverkan på oss och vår miljö. Utvecklingen av alternativa, förnybara och miljömässigt rena energiformer är därför helt essentiell. En möjlig lösning är att skapa artificiell fotosyntes, där solenergi omvandlas till bränsle (till exempel vätgas) i en process där A continuing use of fossil fuels will accelerate global warning and result in severe consequences for the environment and thereby also us. Development of alternative, sustainable and environmentally friendly energy sources is therefore crucial. One approach is to create an artificial photosynthetic system that converts sunshine into fuel (e.g. hydrogen gas) by splitting water molecules. However, i
