On October 23, 2011, Ennahda wins Tunisia's first free democratic elections. Ennahda is an Islamist party that was publicly acknowledged only after the ruling dictator was overthrown. Media has been talking about the revolution in Tunisia as the citizen's liberation, but after the election the discussion is about women's future. When the new provisional constitution is published on Aug

A flow immunodetection system with high sample throughput capacity is described for the screening of various analytes. The immunochemical detection principle is based on the chromatographic separation of the formed immunocomplex (AbAg or AbAg*) and the free antigen (Ag) by a restricted access (RA) column, utilising size-exclusion and reversed-phase mechanism. A fluorescein labelled analyte (Ag*) w

To understand the fundamental connections between particle properties and human and environmental toxicology we study toxicological effects on all levels, from single cells to ecosystems using various in-vitro, ex-vivo, and in-vivo methods. We also study trophic transfer of nanomaterials, as well as the toxic effects thereof, using model ecosystems and mesocosm systems. Research areasCellular toxi

Novel proteoforms with single amino acid polymorphism represent proteins that often have altered biological functions but are less explored in the human proteome. We have developed an approach, searching high quality shotgun proteomic data against an extended protein database, to identify expressed mutant proteoforms in glioma stem cell (GSC) lines. The systematic search of MS/MS spectra has recog
Mycosis fungoides is a disease with manifestation of the skin that has traditionally been treated with electron therapy. In this paper, we present a method of treating the entire skin with megavoltage photons using helical tomotherapy (HT), verified through a phantom study and clinical dosimetric data from our first two treated patients. A whole body phantom was fitted with a wetsuit as bolus, and
It was postulated in [1], based on experimental evidence, that brittle fracture failures of composite (non-ceramic) HV insulators could be caused by water and mechanical stresses. It was also claimed therein that the brittle fracture process was more likely to happen with water than acids. This postulation could be of major importance as its ramifications might affect the entire composite insulato
I syfte att bekämpa grov brottslighet vidtar svenska myndigheter olika provokativa åtgärder, däribland brottsprovokation. Otillbörlig brottsprovokation innebär att någon provoceras att begå ett brott som denne annars inte hade begått. Detta är idag otillåtet, både enligt svensk rätt och enligt Europeiska konventionen om skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna och de grundläggande fri- och rättigheterIn order to combat serious crime, Swedish authorities implement provocative actions, including entrapment. Undue entrapment means that someone is provoked to commit a crime that he or she would not otherwise have committed. This is currently prohibited, both under Swedish law and under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The purpose of the prohibition of such entrapment is to protect t

Proteins are tiny chemical machines that play many critical roles in our body. Some proteins send important messages, some carry crucial supplies, some fight with invaders and protect body from diseases, some clear trash etc. Proteins are strings of hundreds and thousands of small units called amino acids. If the string is built from less than hundred amino acids, it is called a peptide. DNA, a loThe pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease is widely believed to be due to production and deposition of the amyloid β-peptide. Several variants of the Aβ peptide are known to exist in in vivo. Variations include mutations or additional functional groups attached to residue side chains and may affect the aggregation process. Early on-set Alzheimer’s is caused by a variety of single amino acid substitu
Introduction: To investigate the incidence of neonatal early-onset group B streptococcal (GBS) infection in Sweden after promulgation of guidelines (2008) for risk factor-based intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis, and evaluate the presence of risk factors and obstetric management in mothers. Material and methods: National registers were searched for infants with early-onset GBS infection during 200
Gender tests in sports have become increasingly popular amongst sports gov-erning bodies. Even the International Olympic Committee only recently, in March 2026, introduced a new rule requiring female athletes to undergo ge-netic testing to be allowed to compete in the female category. This article ex-amines gender testing in sport and the question of whether these regulations violate the human rig
Experiments have been performed on cracks growing in a weak elastic layer bonded to a stiffer beam. The plane of the initial crack is perpendicular to the interface between the layer and the beam (see Fig. 1). The applied load is initially mode I. A frequent observation is that the crack deflects following a curved path. Finally the crack runs almost parallel with the interface. Different ratios
The environmental impact from shipping is driven by the combustion of fossil fuel. It has great potential to be reduced by use of structures in lightweight fibre reinforced polymer composite instead of steel. This has not been possible for ships regulated under SOLAS, since assessment of fire safety of such a fundamental change is complex. The purpose of this thesis has been to provide for the ass

ABSTRACT: Fibrolipomatous hamartoma of the median nerve are usually located distally in the forearm and may have characteristic features on MR imaging. Here we report a patient with an extensive fibrolipomatous hamartoma at an unusual location proximally in the arm, where a preoperative MR imaging was pathognomonic and diagnosis was verified by an incisional biopsy. We suggest that MRI should be p
In the Australian painted dragon lizard (Ctenophorus pictus), males occur in two different morphs with respect to gular color, with or without a yellow bib. Males without a bib lost within-clutch paternity significantly more often to rivals than bibbed males. Thus, it appears that bibs identify some phenotypic advantage linked to competitive ability. To test whether this could be related to whole-
BACKGROUND: Boswellic acid is a type of triterpenoids with antiinflammatory and antiproliferative properties. Sphingomyelin metabolism generates multiple lipid signals affecting cell proliferation, inflammation, and apoptosis. Upregulation of acid sphingomyelinase (SMase) has been found in several inflammation-related diseases such as inflammatory bowel diseases, atherosclerosis, and diabetes. MET
