Stadsplanering, transporter och markanvändning – Utveckling av ett analytiskt ramverk

Stadsplanering är ett komplicerat och mångfasetterad begrepp. Denna rapport är en förstudie om hur begreppet stadsplanering kan definieras och vilken möjlighet stadsplanering har för att påverkar stadens transporter, bebyggelsestruktur, resvanor, bilägande/användning, välfärdsfördelning (ex. segregation) och ekonomisk utveckling/handel. Rapporten utgår dels från en litteraturstudie, dels från inte

Histamine receptors and neuropeptides in the cranial circulation

Popular Abstract in Swedish Tre av huvudets blodkärlsregioner - hjärnans, den h rda hjärnhinnans och tinningens puls dror, har undersökts med avseende p förekomst av nerver inneh llande signalsubstanser som kallas neuropeptider. Tv av dessa är substans P (SP) och kalcitonin gen-relaterad peptid (CGRP) vilka finns i nerver som förmedlar känselupplevelser, till exempel smärta. Andra är neuropeptid YThe sensory neuropeptides substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) are present in human cerebral, meningeal and temporal arteries, as are peptides associated with the sympathetic (neuropeptide Y, NPY) and parasympathetic (vasoactive intestinal peptide, VIP) nervous system. NPY is a vasoconstrictor in cerebral and meningeal arteries and potentiates noradrenaline (NA) as a vasocon

Desertification and global climate change – Little Ice Age desertification in Iceland?

1. INTRODUCTION Geographers at the University of Lund have been active in research on desertification/ land degradation and environmental change monitoring of African drylands since the mid 1970’ies and of Asian drylands since the beginning of the 1990’ies. The results obtained so far do not confirm the concept of desertification as a mainly man made phenomena but indicate that the importance of c

Oxidation of Ketones: A (Chemo-) Enzymatic Approach Using Oxygenases and Hydrolases

Popular Abstract in English The thesis that you are reading at this moment was printed using climate compensated paper, a sign that consciously or not you are contributing somehow to control the current environmental issues in our planet. It would not be nice if every single article used in your daily life contains information about how environmentally friendly that product is? We have to think “bOxidation reactions are important in organic chemistry as well as in nature. In industry, oxidations are commonly used for the synthesis of chemicals and pharmaceuticals, however such processes have a number of limitations, they use chlorinated solvents, stoichiometric oxidation reagents, and in some cases the reagents that have risks of explosion during transportation and storage. This has called

Improving the Response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to Lignocellulosic Hydrolysate Inhibitors in Ethanolic Fermentation

The production of ethanol based on lignocellulosic biomass requires the fermentation of a hydrolysate containing hexose and pentose sugars in an inhibitory environment. In fact, the lignocellulosic hydrolysate obtained from pretreatment and hydrolysis of the raw material contains a variety of inhibitory compounds, including (i) the furaldehydes 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (HMF) and 2-furaldehyde

Vanadia Catalysts on Anatase, Rutile, and TiO2(B) for the Ammoxidation of Toluene: An ESR and High-Resolution Electron Microscopy Characterization

Three titania polymorphs, anatase, rutile, and TiO2(B), were used as supports for vanadia. Catalysts with nominal loadings corresponding to 1.5 and 5 theoretical layers were prepared. True monolayer samples were obtained by NH3(aq)-treatment of the samples with 5 nominal vanadia layers. Prepared catalysts were characterized by chemical analysis, ESR, and high-resolution electron microscopy. It was

Stress induced virulence of Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes

Popular Abstract in English The food we consume is hardly, if ever, sterile. From fresh produce to processed products, foods harbor one or more types of microorganisms. The presence of some ‘beneficial’ microorganisms is desirable in food production, because they contribute to the characteristics of the final product, as, for example, in the production of wine, beer or cheese. In other cases, micrControl of the dissemination of pathogens in the food production chain is an on-going process with new challenges emerging as pathogenic bacteria evolve and express enhanced virulence characteristics. Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes are two notorious pathogens responsible for staphylococcal food poisoning (SFP) and listeriosis: a foodborne intoxication and an infectious disease re

A Framework for providing QoS routing in MANETs

The aim of this work is to propose a framework for providing QoS routing in MANETs. The proposed framework uses local information of nodes such as node's speed, buffer, and power to select path for routing. Deploying these information, more stable paths are selected and hence QoS routing parameter could be satisfied. Moreover, routing performance has been improved, especially in terms of end-to-en

Chemical analysis of combustion products from a high-pressure gas turbine combustor rig fueled by jet A1 fuel and a Fischer-Tropsch-based fuel

A comparative experimental investigation has been performed, comparing the emissions from a synthetic jet fuel and from Jet AI. In the investigation, the unburned hydrocarbons were analyzed chemically and the regulated emissions of NOX, CO and HC were measured. All combustion tests were performed under elevated pressures in a gas turbine combustor rig. A Swedish company, Oroboros AB, has developed

Characterization of somatic mutations in nonneoplastic cells

Popular Abstract in Swedish Cancer är på cellnivå en genetisk sjukdom, i det avseendet att typiska egenskaper för cancerceller, t ex okontrollerad celldelning samt abnorm känslighet för yttre regulatoriska signaler, uppkommer genom förvärvade och ibland ärftliga förändringar, s k mutationer, i cellens arvsmassa. Hur mutationerna uppstår är bara till viss del känt. Somliga förändringar beror på strAcquired genetic alterations, of which many are visible on the chromosome level, are believed to be necessary for tumorigenesis, and most tumors display characteristic patterns of recurrent structural and numerical aberrations. However, two of the most frequently occurring chromosome mutations in malignant and benign solid tumors, i.e., trisomy 7 and rearrangements of 12q13-15, have recently been

Green Marketing at the Store: The socio-material life of a t-shirt

Green products are becoming part of contemporary consumer cultures and part of everyday life. But how are green products constructed? And how do they work? This paper is concerned with the role that marketing plays in the making and circulation of green products. My aim is to illuminate the process of green making. Departing from an understanding of marketing as socio- material practice I analyse
