The enzymatic and bioelectrocatalytic activity of tyrosinase from mushrooms was studied in a system of reversed micelles formed by Aerosol OT (AOT) in hexane. The optimal catechol oxidising activity of tyrosinase incorporated in reversed micelles was found at a hydration degree of w(0) = 25. The catalytic activity was comparable with tyrosinase activity in aqueous media. When immobilized at an Au
During two consecutive years 607 individuals with lower limb fractures were diagnosed. Half of the individuals, 315, were women and only 14 of them had an earlier registration for alcoholism. In the 292 men, however, 73 men or 25%, had been registered at the Department of Alcohol Diseases at least once during the 13 years of observation, the highest registration frequency (30%) was noted in the ma
The sensitivity to geometrical imperfections of various test methods for wood-adhesive bonds was investigated using nonlinear finite element analysis. The adhesive layers in the specimens were modelled using a nonlinear softening, fracture mechanics model. The specimen types corresponded to the standards according to ASTM-D4680, ASTM-D905, EN-302-1 and a modified version of the ASTM-D3535 specimen
Abundances of O, Fe, Al, Mg, Na and Li determined from high-resolutionand high signal-to-noise spectra of 21 red giant branch (RGB) stars inthe globular cluster NGC 6752 are presented. We demonstrate that theStrömgren c1 index correlates extremely well with themeasured NH, CH and CN indices and that variations in c1 aredue to differences in UV NH band strengths. As shown by G
En utgåva av en långfredagspredikan på latin sammanställd av birgittinbrodern Clemens Emikini, med inledning och noter. Predikan är hämtad ur vadstenahandskriften C 350 i Uppsala universitetsbibliotek och kan dateras till mellan 1425 och 1459. Det är en mycket lång predikan, av den typ som ofta hölls på långfredagen vid medeltidens slut, med inlevelsefullt återberättande av Jesu lidandes historia.
The fluid dynamics of insect wings and the fins and tails of fish are governed by vortex wake interactions, which are strongly related to the wing, fins and tail kinematics. By modeling the kinematics of these wings, fins and tails as a two-dimensionally flapping foil, the influence of the kinematics on the vortex wake interactions is studied. This is done by varying the non-dimensional advance ra
Alltsedan amerikanska frihetskriget har så kallade Minute Men varit högt skattade, då deras insatser bidrog till seger över de brittiska kolonialtrupperna. Framför allt har orterna Corcorde och Lexington varit centrala i minnesceremonier. I artikeln analyseras olika historiebruk i anslutning till monument över och ceremonier till minne av The Minute Man.
Recent theoretical developments of growth models, especially on unified theories of growth, suggest that the child quantity-quality trade-off has been a central element of the transition from Malthusian stagnation to sustained growth. Using an original censusbased dataset, this paper explores the role of gender on the trade-off between education and fertility across 86 French counties during the n
1500-och 1600-talen var en period av maktkamp om herraväldet i Norden, men också en period av statsbildning, centralisering och stora samhällsförändringar. Dessa händelser hade också stor effekt på gränsbygdens innevånare. Gränsbygdernas politiska betydelse för det tidigmoderna Euorpas stater är ett alltjämt ganska outforskat område. Denna bok tar sin utgångspunkt i den östdanska gräsnbefolkningen
Memorials and places of ritual, such as funeral monuments, roadside memorials and cemeteries, can be said to reveal the politics of religious space as in the tension between sacred and secular and between private and public interests. At the same time they also reflect a given society’s religious structures, cultural differences and social orderings, as well as the changes in these matters over ti
