Natural hybridization occurs commonly in plants and blurs their interspecific delimitation. It is unclear whether spontaneous hybridization occurs in natural populations of Primula in China. In this study we examined natural hybridization between P. secundiflora and P. poissonii based on morphological and molecular analyses of individuals with intermediate morphology. Most morphological characters
The effects of insulin (10-1000 microU ml-1) on chylomicron remnant uptake and degradation were studied in hepatocyte monolayer cultures. Both uptake and degradation were stimulated by insulin. The degree of stimulation was influenced by cell density, being most pronounced in sparse cultures. The uptake was stimulated in a dose-dependent fashion and was noticed already at a physiological insulin l
The Oslofjord subsea road tunnel is a unique environment in which the typically anoxic marine deep subsurface is exposed to oxygen. Concrete biodeterioration and steel corrosion in the tunnel have been linked to the growth of iron- and manganese-oxidizing biofilms in areas of saline water seepage. Surprisingly, previous 16S rRNA gene surveys of biofilm samples revealed microbial communities domina
Cesium lead iodide (CsPbI3) perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) suffer from a known transformation at room temperature from their red-emitting (black) to non-emitting (yellow) phase, induced by the tilting of PbI6 octahedra. While the reported attempts to stabilize CsPbI3 NCs mainly involve Pb2+-site doping as well as compositional and/or NC surface engineering, the black phase stability in relation onl
The stereoselective reduction of ketones catalysed by alcohol dehydrogenase from Thermoanaerobium brockii was studied in different reaction media, hexane at controlled water activities, hexane with 2.5% water (biphasic) and pure water. The reactions were studied in the temperature range from -1 to 50°C. Increasing the water activity from 0.53 to 0.97 increased the reaction rate 16-fold. The rate w
To study the frequency of diabetic retinopathy in relation to age at diagnosis, treatment, duration of diabetes and glycemic control as measured by means of HbA(1c) levels, we performed a cross-sectional, register-based study in the Helsingborg area of southern Sweden, comprising 2232 diabetic patients. Of the known diabetic population < 75 years old, approximately 70% were estimated to be include
We present a new methodology involving the simultaneous refinement of both x-ray absorption and x-ray diffraction spectra (x-ray absorption/diffraction structural refinement, XADSR) to study the hydration and ion pair structure of CaCl2 and RbBr salts in concentrated aqueous solutions. The XADSR method combines the x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectral analysis of both the cation and ani
Background: How we identify ourselves is strongly related to employment. Young adults are a vulnerable group with regard to entering the Labor market. If they also have mental health problems, entering becomes more difficult and increases risk of early marginalization. Nevertheless, working can be essential for personal recovery process. Aims: To explore experiences of young adults with mental hea
Metabolically engineered baker’s yeast can be used to produce chiral amines through whole-cell bioconversion of prochiral ketones. This study investigates the modulation of the alanine-pyruvate metabolic node to enhance reductive amination, using the stereoselective conversion of benzylacetone to (S)-1-methyl-3-phenylpropylamine (MPPA) as a model reaction. Chromosomal integration of multiple copie
Indicative conditionals: the logic of assertion John Cantwell September 25, 2006 Abstract I argue that indicative conditionals are best viewed as having partial truth condi- tions: “If A, B” is true if A and B are both true, false if A is true and B is false, and lacks truth value if A is false. The truth conditions are shown to explain a variety of important phenomena regarding indicative conditi

This work explores the catalytic activity of decavanadate (V10)-based catalysts in the selective oxidation of ethylbenzene (EB), a model compound of lignin-derived molecules, under mild conditions. The goal is to assess the catalytic efficiency, product selectivity, and the influence of counter-ions on activity through systematic testing of parameters such as temperature and catalyst loading. Addi
Complex recombinant biomaterials that merge the self-assembling properties of different (poly)peptides provide a powerful tool for the achievement of specific structures, such as hydrogel networks, by tuning the thermodynamics and kinetics of the system through a tailored molecular design. In this work, elastin-like (EL) and silk-like (SL) polypeptides are combined to obtain a silk-elastin-like re
This study examines the production of morphosyntax in Swedish-speaking children diagnosed with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). Data from a Sentence Repetition Task was used to investigate if there is an implicational order according to Processability Theory (PT) in grammatical structures produced by school-age children with DLD. PT is a cognitive theory of language development that assumes
Interest in monoclonal antibody aggregation is increasing as aggregates of biopharma-ceuticals can cause an immunogenic response when injected into the body. In this work a stoichiometric reaction model from concentration-time data is developed to predict the dimer ratio in stored antibody solutions over time. IgG1 was incubated at pH from 4.5 to 5.5, salt concentrations from 100 to 600 mmol/kg an
We report on a new nanopatterned structure represented by a single atomic layer of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) forming long periodic waves on the Fe(110) surface. The growth process and the structure of this system are characterized by X-ray absorption (XAS), core-level photo-emission spectroscopy (CL PES), low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM), microbeam low-energy electron diffraction (mu LEE
Genome-wide association studies have identified 32 loci influencing body mass index, but this measure does not distinguish lean from fat mass. To identify adiposity loci, we meta-analyzed associations between similar to 2.5 million SNPs and body fat percentage from 36,626 individuals and followed up the 14 most significant (P < 10(-6)) independent loci in 39,576 individuals. We confirmed a previou
Total and cause specific mortality and cancer morbidity were studied among 1929 asbestos cement workers with an estimated median cumulative exposure of 2.3 fibre (f)-years/ml (median intensity 1.2 f/ml, predominantly chrysotile). A local reference cohort of 1233 industrial workers and non-case referents from the exposed cohort were used for comparisons. The risk for pleural mesothelioma was signif
