Popular Abstract in Swedish Klorofyllsyntes är en viktig process i naturen. De gröna pigmenten utgör en viktig del i fotosyntesen där de absorberar och överför solenergi till fotosyntetiska reaktionscentra. Magnesium kelatas katalyserar insättandet av en magnesium (II) jon i protoporfyrin IX, vilket är det första specifika steget i klorofyllsyntesen. Magnesium kelatas består av tre proteiner, som The biosynthesis of chlorophylls is an important process in nature. The green pigments play a fundamental role in absorbing and transferring solar energy to the photosynthetic apparatus. This thesis elucidates the role and function of the enzyme magnesium chelatase, which catalyses the insertion of magnesium (II) into protoporphyrin IX and is the first committed enzyme of the chlorophyll biosynthe

The Nordic Swan is a voluntary environmental and consumer policy instrument that was launched in the Nordic countries in 1989. Ever since, the scheme has grown with increasing numbers of product groups and licence holders. Similarly, the number of ecolabelled products in the market place has also grown, resulting in a growing financial turnover. The Nordic Swan has furthermore also been joined by

Fires are complex and it is hard to derive relationships from theory in fire science. Full-scale and small-scale experiments have been used with great success in order to increase the understanding of fire chemistry and fire dynamics. But, there are shortcomings and difficulties with conducting these traditional fire experiments. In this thesis, numerical experiments are explored as a research met

A research anthology from the project "Christian Identity - the First 100 Years" (funded by Bank of Sweden Tercentenary Foundation, 2003-06). Each project participant submitted one chapter summarizing his research on various aspects of the project theme.

The purpose of this paper is to present some reflections on the relationship between the production of contemporary art and the function of national identities in our Scandinavian and Baltic countries. The main assumption of the paper is a non-essentialist one: the author assumes that national identity, like art and the context(s) of the art-world(s), is something which is produced and socially co

Siri Dahlquists (1889-1966)hymns are stamped with the theology and spirituality of the Young Church movement.A common theme is God´s calling, interpreted in the Lutheran sense, as in her adaption of Annie Coghill's hymn "Work for the night is coming". In the Swedish Hymnal 1986 she is represented with 3 hymns.

The BET surface area was found to be 10.5 (±0.5), 10.1 (±0.5) and 11.0 (±0.5) m2 g−1 for sample EL10, EL10V1 and EL10V8, respectively. No microporosity was observed for any of the samples. In all cases, a bimodal distribution of porosity was observed, indicating intraparticle macroporosity with radii about 0.1–0.2 and interparticle porosity radii around 10 μm. The TiO2 support is composed of parti

During fashion’s life cycle the highest environmental impacts come from use: the way people maintain clothes in everyday life. Considering the way clothes are used allows designers to embed pro-environmental practices in garments with vast resource conservation potential. This chapter provides examples of garment design that shape the way people wash clothes. No-wash garments are found to be most

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett antal olika behandlingsformer finns att tillgå vid angrepp av mikroorgansimer, tex antibiotika, samt vid uppkomsten av tumörer, tex strålbehandling och cellgifter. Ett alternativ till dessa traditionella behandlingssätt är att hjälpa kroppens immunförsvar att starta en specifik immunreaktion riktad mot de infekterade cellerna eller mot tumörcellerna. Detta vore en iMajor histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules present antigenic peptides to CD8+ T cells. The peptides are generated by proteasomes in the cytosol, then translocated across the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). Only properly assembled class I molecules loaded with high affinity peptides reach the cell surface. The mat

A proposal for a new synchrotron light source, MAX 4, is presented. The main components are two identical storage rings operated at different electron beam energies and equipped with superconducting insertion devices. Small beam emittances will yield high brilliance radiation over a wide spectral range. A small horizontal emittance is achieved by using a large number of cells with gradient dipoles

The historical role of European farming in southern and central Africa is a delicate matter that has received a great deal of attention among scholars over the years. Going through this vast literature a striking consensus emerges: success or failure of European farming in southern Africa was to a large extent depending on their access and control over labour. These propositions have so far never
