Concerns regarding environmental issues such as greenhouse gas emissions and climate change have led to a shift within the research community and chemical and energy industry sectors for finding sustainable routes for producing fuels and chemicals from renewable resources, thereby minimizing our dependence on petroleum. The C3-chemical 3-hydroxypropionic acid has been identifed as a top candidate

Streptococcus bovis/Streptococcus equinus complex (SBSEC) is a common cause of infective endocarditis (IE). For IE-pathogens, the capacity to activate and aggregate platelets is believed to be an important virulence mechanism. While the interactions between bacteria and platelets have been described in detail for many Gram-positive pathogens, little research has been carried out with SBSEC in this

Popular Abstract in English A handful of diseases-causing pathogenic microorganisms claim millions of lives worldwide each year, mainly due to limited diagnostic capabilities. The lack of simple, cost-effective, sensitive and rapid on-site diagnostic tools lead to delays in the diagnoses with a subsequent lag in treatment, which in turn can result in serious complications or even loss of lives. Fast and sensitive detection of pathogenic microbial cells is a highly important task in medical diagnostics, environmental analysis and evaluation of food safety. Accordingly, the idea of microorganism identification by the recognition of specific DNA sequence using electrochemical technique is one of the leading researches in the development of diagnostic devices. In other words, it should only

Background: Under inflammatory conditions, T cell-dependent (TD) protein antigens induce proinflammatory T-and B-cell responses. In contrast, tolerance induction by TD antigens without costimulation triggers the development of regulatory T cells. Under both conditions, IgG antibodies are generated, but whether they have different immunoregulatory functions remains elusive. Objective: It was shown

Abstract Sedentary behavior is defined as sitting or lying with low energy expenditure. Humans in industrialized societies spend an increasing amount of time in sedentary behaviors every day. This has been associated with detrimental health outcomes. Despite a growing interest in the health effects of sedentary behavior at work, associations remain unclear, plausibly due to poor and diverse methodSedentary behavior is defined as sitting or lying with low energy expenditure.

BACKGROUND: Effector functions of IgG antibodies (Abs) are regulated by their Fc N-glycosylation pattern. IgG Fc glycans that lack galactose and terminal sialic acid residues correlate with the severity of inflammatory (auto)immune disorders and have also been linked to the protection against viral infection and discussed in the context of vaccine-induced protection. In contrast, sialylated IgG Ab

Stochastic dierential equations (SDEs) proved a fundamental mathematical tool to model dynamics subject to randomness and are nowadays a necessary instrument in e.g. nancial mathematics, neuronal modelling, population growth and physiological modelling. In realistic applications SDEs parameters are unknown quantities that have to be estimated from available data. However inference for SDEs is non-

The possibility to make environmental strategy a part of the core strategy through a framework called inside-out/outside-in was suggested by Porter in 2007. Researchers have also stated that the output of implementing a certain strategy ought to be valued during strategy planning. The two areas; environmental strategy and profitability analysis have although not frequently been combined, and thus

Many studies have over the years utilized gravity models derived from trade theories to investigate how various factors affect trade in agricultural goods. Although technological improvements could be considered in such models, few studies have considered this topic in depth, leaving a void to fill. To partly fill this void, this study has chosen the silk sector to analyze the impact of technologi

Traditional crash-based analysis of road safety at individual sites has its shortcomings due to low numbers and the random nature of crashes at individual sites and the related statistical issues, as well as the under-reporting of crashes and lack of information on contributing factors and the process preceding crashes.

In this study I explore the field of internal business partnering (IBP) and how IT is utilized in supporting these efforts and in supporting an increased awareness. I furthermore explore what the current limitations of today's technology are, and finally, in addition, study a specific collaborative tool, namely a word processing template, and how this should be developed to maximize communicat

This thesis investigates if it is possible to use the dynamic braking test method together with sensorless control. A literature study is conducted about different sensorless methods in order to find methods that fits the application. From the literature study are two sensorless methods implemented and simulated in Matlab Simulink. The results from the simulations shows that when using the two met
