At present, coconut proteins are discarded as a waste product by the coconut oil industry. If the range of applications of coconut proteins is to be expanded, their potential functionalities should be investigated. Emulsions and gels are of the greatest interest in food industry. Today the dry processing of copra at elevated temperatures is used to optimize the oil recovery. The functionalities o
In this article we discuss the notions of social sustainability and universal design by reflecting on a particular type of architectural element in common space, namely the “social staircases” that serve as multifunctional spaces beyond mere transportation, aiming at social interaction.

In translation from preclinical to clinical studies using photoacoustic imaging, motion artifacts represent a major issue. In this study the feasibility of an in-house algorithm, referred to as intensity phase tracking (IPT), for regional motion correction of in vivo human photoacoustic (PA) images was demonstrated. The algorithm converts intensity to phase-information and performs 2D phase-tracki
Newly available wavelet bases on multi-resolution analysis have exciting implications for detection of change-points. By checking the absolute value of wavelet coefficients one call detect discontinuities in ail otherwise smooth curve even in the presence of additive noise. In this paper, we combine wavelet methods and extreme value theory to test the presence of ail arbitrary number of discontinu
Nanowires are structures with features on the nanoscale, and it is therefore essential to study their properties on that scale. We present optical data from a variety of nanowire-based structures using cathodoluminescence imaging and spectroscopy. One important feature of nanowires is the stacking sequence of the crystal, either zincblede, wurtzite or a mix of the two. We show that this has an imp
The T matrix for scattering of waves by a circular disk is derived. Both the scalar (Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions) and the vector (perfectly conducting disk) cases are considered and the use of alternative choices for surface field functions is discussed in detail, and it is found that either type of the surface field representation is equally good for the disk case. Analytic expressi
The ‘superman’ does not simply carry the accustomed drives and strivings of the customary type of man beyond all measures and bounds. Superman is a qualitatively, not quantitatively, different form of existing man. The thing that the superman discards is precisely our boundless, purely quantitative non-stop progress. The superman is poorer, simpler, tenderer and tougher, quieter and more self-sacr
The size and power of tests for smooth structural change are evaluated in the presence of random measurement error in the explanatory variable or outliers in the dependent variable of a univariate regression model. It is shown that the considered tests are robust to measurement error of a magnitude that can be found in real economic data. By contrast,outliers are found to distort both the size and
In order to maximize protein identification by peptide mass fingerprinting noise peaks must be removed from spectra and recalibration is often required. The preprocessing of the spectra before database searching is essential but is time-consuming. Nevertheless, the optimal database search parameters often vary over a batch of samples. For high-throughput protein identification, these factors shoul
In the Nordic countries machine strength grading of structural timber is becoming increasingly important. A new standard, EN 14081, which allows CE-marking of strength graded structural timber was recently accepted. This standard allows both machine
control and output control as methods for controlling the graded timber. Machine control is most commonly used in Europe. The project reporte
A practical optical link system was prepared with a transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) for reducing EMI (electromagnetic interference). The optical TRx module consisted of a metal optical bench, a module printed circuit board (PCB), a driver/receiver IC, a VCSEL/PD array, and an optical link block composed of plastic optical fiber (POF). For the optical interconnection between the light-sources an
The reactions between trans-[Au(CN) 2 X 2 ] - (X = Cl or Br) and Me 2 S have been studied by conventional and high-pressure stopped-flow spectrophotometry in acidic aqueous solution containing 10% (w/w) methanol. The overall stoichiometry Au III ∶Me 2 S is 1∶(1.0 ± 0.1) in agreement with the reaction: trans-[Au(CN) 2 X 2 ] - + Me 2 S + H 2 O → [Au(CN) 2 ] - + Me 2 SO + 2H + + 2X - .

Superantigens are toxins produced by Staphylococcus aureus, called staphylococcal enterotoxins (abbreviated SEA to SEU). They can cross-link the T cell receptor (TCR) and major histocompatibility complex class II, triggering a massive T cell activation and hence disease. Due to high stability and toxicity, superantigens are potential agents of bioterrorism. Hence, antagonists may not only be usefu
Over the last decades, dramatic improvements in combinatorialoptimisation algorithms have significantly impacted artificialintelligence, operations research, and other areas. These advances,however, are achieved through highly sophisticated algorithms that aredifficult to verify and prone to implementation errors that can causeincorrect results. A promising approach to detect wrong results is tous
