A Sierpinski-like fractal patch antenna with a slant strip in the first iteration is proposed in this article. The parameters of this kind of antenna are analyzed and optimized for dual WLAN application. The added slant strip provides simple probe feeding for compactness and also helps bandwidth enhancement due to multiple modes, which can be evident from current distribution. Measured return loss

Galactoglucomannan and galactomannan are among the most abundant plant polysaccharides in nature. The central enzymes involved in their degradation, i.e., endo-1,4-beta-mannanase (beta-mannanase, EC 3.2.1.78), beta-mannosidase (EC 3.2.1.25), and alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22) were purified from the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger and characterized with respect to physical properties and su

Gottfried Feder was one of the pioneers of German National Socialism, as one of the leftists, his role diminished after 1933.

Mångfalden i användningen av modeller i betydelsen analogier i vetenskapligt språk beskrivs: visualiseringar, typexempel, och (vanligast) begreppsliga och teoretiska konstruktioner. En annan användning är när vetenskapliga teorier som sådana uppfattas som modeller. De betraktas då som något annat än bokstavliga beskrivningar av verkligheten, som i exv. i instrumentalismen och den kritiska realisme

Librarians and researchers - memories of embarrassing encounters and hopes for a bright future. As a bibliographic instructor of Ph.D. candidates at the Malmö Academies of Performing Arts, the author is looking for reasons why he seems to fail to make a reasonable impact. He suggests that one important condition consists of how researchers consider their role vis-à-vis librarians. Interviews seem

The activation of dendritic cells (DCs) by microbes is mediated by pattern recognition receptors including the Toll-like receptors (TLR). Bacterial lipopolysaccharide acts via TLR4 whereas peptidoglycan and lipoprotein responses are mediated by TLR2. It is generally accepted that TLR binding to microbes occurs at the cell surface but this has not been directly demonstrated for human DCs. We show h

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Öroninflammtionen är en av våra vanligaste åkommor, och den drabbar framför allt små barn. Av alla bakteriella infektioner är det den som oftast för oss till läkare. Vanligen resulterar läkarbesöket i en kur med bakteriedödande läkemedel som penicillin. P.g.a den idag höga konsumtionen av penicillin och liknande medel, är risken påtagAcute otitis media (AOM) is the most common illness diagnosed during early childhood. One of the major etiologic agents is Haemophilus influenzae. Apart from AOM, this organism can cause a broad range of infectious diseases such as meningitis, epiglottitis, arthritis, and pneumonia. Despite the importance of H.influenzae, the mechanisms by which this heterogenous group of bacteria mediates the inf

Households will play an important role in saving electricity in the future. Behavioural aspects in using white goods and other electric appliances are important as are the reasons for buying new white goods and a number of other appliances for cooking and washing. In a Swedish study three important aspects of energy use in households , Washing/drying Laundry, Cooking and Eating, and Information an

Abstract in Danish Denne artikel rejser spørgsmålet om grunderne til neuropsykiatriens dominans inden for feltet mentala forstyrrelser. I kapitlets første del søges orsagerne i neuropsykiatriens videnskablige inhold. Diskussionen vil især dreje sig om neuropsykiatrins klassifikations- og førklaringssystem. Det vil bland andet framgå, at neuropsykiatriens fenomenologisk baserede klassifikationer (D
