Ribonucleases and host defense: identification, localization and gene expression in adherent monocytes in vitro

Several ribonucleases of the RNase A family function as antibacterial, anti-parasitic and anti-viral agents. In this work, we have shown that mRNAs encoding five of the six known human ribonucleases of the RNase A family are expressed in cultured human monocytes, and that ribonucleases are released by adherent monocytes in culture. Using a polyclonal antiserum prepared against recombinant protein,

The Activity Diamond - Modeling an Enhanced Accessibility

The purpose of the research presented in this thesis is to enhance the field of accessibility to include a multitude of perspectives. Based on cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT), it analyzes how human, artifactual and natural factors impact an individual’s possibilities to act in concrete situations that are part of a systemic whole.The thesis presents two main results:An enhanced accessib

Definitions of hypnosis and hypnotizability and their relation to suggestion and suggestibility. A consensus statement.

Abstract in UndeterminedThis article reports a consensus that was reached at an Advanced Workshop in Experimental Hypnosis held as part of the joint annual conference of the British Society of Medical and Dental Hypnosis (BSMDH) and the British Society of Experimental and Clinical Hypnosis (BSECH). The unanimous consensus was that conventional definitions of hypnosisand hypnotizability are logical

Kommunernas avloppshantering bara liten del av problemet

Slutreplik. Per-Åke Sahlberg skriver engagerat om att det finns mer än jordbruk som påverkar vattenkvalitet. Han har helt rätt. Eftersom vatten ständigt är i rörelse och helt gränsöverskridande kommer alla aktiviteter som sker att påverka vattenkvaliteten – såväl antropogena som naturliga. Men prioriteringar av var insatserna måste ske görs sällan. Att påstå att avloppshanteringen är det största p

Usage of a surface integral representation to reconstruct equivalent currents - with radome applications

Knowledge of the current distribution on a radome can be used to improve radome design, detect manufacturing errors, and to verify numerical simulations. In this paper, the transformation from near-field data to its equivalent current distribution on a surface of arbitrary material, ie the radome, is analyzed. The transformation is based on a full vector surface integral representation that relate

Water resources management through rainwater harvesting in arid area

Water harvesting and artificial recharge has been a traditional solution to water scarcity problems in the arid and semiarid Middle East for thousands of years. These techniques are increasingly being encouraged and at present there has been a renewed interest to find improved methods for water harvesting in many arid countries. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the performance an

Co-evolution under globalization : boundary lessons from Kinmen Island

A growing mass of research contributes to our understanding of how cultural and environmental systems coevolve, whereby environmental systems reflect the characteristics of social/cultural systems and vice versa. Biodiversity and cultural diversity are intrinsically related in the processes of coevolution that generate change in the patchwork quilt of cultural and natural landscapes. These process

Design of new training sequence and estimation scheme for frequency dependent I/Q imbalance in MB-OFDM based UWB systems

This paper analyzes the I/Q imbalance effect of direct-conversion receiver in wide-band wireless communication system and sets up frequency-selective I/Q imbalance model for ultra-wide band system. We design a new training sequence based on extra phase rotation and propose an estimation algorithm using diversity message introduced by I/Q imbalance during the demodulation process. Theoretical analy
