The heterodinuclear mixed-valence complex [FeMn(ICIMP)(OAc)(2)Cl] (1) {H2ICIMP = 2-(N-carboxylmethyl)-[N-(N-methylimidazolyl-2-methyl)aminomethyl]-[6-(N-isopropylmethyl)-[N-(N-methylimidazolyl-2-methyl)]aminomethyl-4-methylphenol], an unsymmetrical N4O2 donor ligand} has been synthesized and fully characterized by several spectroscopic techniques as well as by X-ray crystallography. The crystal st
Iron is an important material in the study of societies of the Iron Age and later periods. Not only does it give its name to the period it was also an integrated part in every humans’ life from the Iron Age and forward. And yet this material is many times just assumed to be there without much consideration of how it got there. In this master thesis, the author thus tries to bridge this gap in betw
Technological advancements continue to drive changes in our modern society. To keep up with these changes, it is of utter importance to stay competitive, whilst remaining flexible enough to be prepared for future changes. A sector which has struggled in this aspect, traditionally, is self-employed craftsmen - individuals who run a business based upon an aptitude for their trade. This study focuses
Burdur Lake, which is located in southwest of Turkey in Lake Region, and has been drying rapidly in the last 30 years. Disappearance of the water from the lake brings dramatic changes to the region on both socio-economic and cultural levels. This paper explores the processes that brought Burdur Lake and its locals to the point where the lake is today. Transformations in cultural habits and everyda
Effects of the naturally occurring polyamine spermine on electrical and contractile properties of the rat portal vein were studied. 1 mM spermine nearly abolished spike activity and spontaneous contractions and decreased the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). The phasic force responses to 0.1 and 1 microM phenylephrine were partially inhibited, but not the sustain plateau contraction caus
BACKGROUND: micro RNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of many biological pathways. A plethora of steps are required to form, from a precursor, the mature miRNA that eventually acts on its target RNA to repress its expression or to inhibit translation. Recently, Drosophila nibbler (nbr) has been shown to be an important player in the maturation process of miRNA and piRNA. Nbr is an exoribonuclea
In this study, we compared the GR51PP (hydrophobic/polysulfone) membrane with a series of hydrophilic (regenerated cellulose) membranes with the aim of increasing the retention of products and decreasing membrane fouling. The raw material used was a sodium-based spent sulfite liquor from the sulfite pulping process of spruce and pine. The results show that the hydrophilic membranes were superior t
Thromboxane is a key inflammatory mediator and potent airway constrictor. It acts on thromboxane A(2) (TP) receptors and contributes to airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness that is the characteristic feature of asthma. The present study was designed to study TP receptor signaling in airway smooth muscle cells by using an organ culture model and a set of selective pharmacological inhi
Objective: This multiple case study investigated support and process in the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) approach from individual client, longitudinal and Person-Environment-Occupation (PEO) model perspectives. Participants: Five IPS-participants, or cases, with severe mental illness (SMI) who worked a minimum of 4 hours a week entered the study. Methods: A multiple data collectio
The glycosaminoglycan hyaluronic acid (HA) is an important component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the brain. CD44 is a cell adhesion molecule that binds to HA in the ECM and is present on astrocytes, microglia and certain neurons. Cell adhesion molecules have been reported to be involved in anxiety and mood disorders. CD44 levels are decreased in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of depressed
The hypothesis that up-regulation of bronchial constrictor endothelin receptors in airway smooth muscle cells may contribute to hyperreactivity during airway inflammation was tested in the present study by quantitative endothelin receptor mRNA analysis and functional responses in ring segments of rat trachea and bronchi. Real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to quantif
Purpose: This study aims to contribute to the understanding of how job-seekers relate their negative recruitment process experiences to brands. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study adopts a qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews, conducted with thirteen current university students actively seeking employment in degree-requiring fields. The data is abductively analysed through th
Microsoft Word - OtydligaMaal_V101_utankomm.doc LTHs 10:e Pedagogiska Inspirationskonferens, 6 december 2018 Sammanfattning—CEQ-resultaten för en del projektbase- rade kurser visar att studenterna upplever att kursens mål inte är tydliga (skalan ”Tydliga mål”, TM, i CEQ). Studenterna verkar således vara ganska osäkra på vad lärarna förväntar sig av dem. Detta är ett problem som kräver uppmärksamh
