Odd-parity core excited states have been identified in two close neighbors of Sn-100: Pd-96 and Ag-97. This was done in an fusion-evaporation experiment, using a Ni-58 beam on a Sc-45 target. Even-parity core excited states in these nuclei are very well reproduced in large scale (LSSM) calculations in which particle-hole excitations are allowed with up to five g(9/2) protons and neutrons across th
Whole cells of the genetically engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain TMB4100 (1% PGI, YMR226c) were Used as the biocatalyst for the kinetic resolution of racemic bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,6-dione rac-1. The yeast's phosphoglucose isomerase activity was decreased, and the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase encoded by YMR226c was overexpressed. This reduced the demand for the glucose to regenerat
The wake flow behind a cantilever beam of quadratic cross-section at a Reynolds number of 50,000 is investigated using detailed simulations. Two cases are considered, the first one using a stiff beam and the second one with a beam allowing for elastic deformation due to the hydrodynamic forces. The flow is simulated using an implicit large eddy simulation (ILES) approach in OpenFOAM and the struct
The community nurse as consultant – a skills development project. In consequence of the municipality reform and the consequent sliding of services from hospital to primary healthcare, a Danish municipal wished to strengthen their community nurses professional competences, fellow-feeling and collegiate spirit by taking starting point in their newly developed ‘profile for community nurses’. This art
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression by binding to the messenger RNA (mRNA) of protein coding genes. They control gene expression by either inhibiting translation or inducing mRNA degradation. A number of computational techniques have been developed to identify the targets of miRNAs. In this study we used predicted miRNA-gene interactions to analyse mRNA
Advances in gear hobbing are driven to give higher cutting speeds, longer tool life and higher feed rates. Recently, a new type of hob with carbide inserts has been introduced with benefits in all these conditions compared to regrindable high speed steel hobs. However, with this kind of hob, new challenges occur due to positional errors of the cutting edges when mounted on the tool. These errors i
Popular Abstract in Swedish Allt fler människor drabbas av cancer, som idag är den ledande dödsorsaken globalt. De vanligaste cancerformerna i världen är lungcancer, bröstcancer och tjocktarmscancer och det är störst risk att dö i lungcancer, levercancer och magcancer. Även i Sverige ökar antalet cancerfall, till stor del på grund av att vi lever allt längre och cancer är idag en av våra stora folCancer incidence is increasing and it is the number one cause of death worldwide. Cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease and there is a great need for new early diagnostic, prognostic and treatment predictive biomarkers in order to improve patient outcomes. The RNA-binding motif protein 3, RBM3, is an emerging candidate biomarker of favourable prognosis and treatment response in several types of
Laurentia, the core of Paleo- to Mesoproterozoic supercontinent Nuna, has remained largely intact since assembly 2.0 to 1.8 billion years ago [Ga]. For earlier times, previous paleomagnetic data on poorly dated Paleoproterozoic mafic intrusions yielded ambiguous estimates of the amount of separation between key cratons within Nuna such as the Slave and Superior. Recent developments in paleomagneti
The AFm phase, one of the main products formed during the hydration of Portland and calcium aluminate cement based systems, belongs to the layered double hydrate (LDH) family having positively charged layers and water plus charge-balancing anions in the interlayer. It is known that these phases present different hydration states (i.e. varying water content) depending on the relative humidity (RH),
Complement activation occurs during inflammatory joint diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is thought to contribute to the chronic inflammation observed within the joints. Previous studies have shown that certain cartilage components of the small leucine-rich repeat protein (SLRP)-family regulate complement activity, thereby possibly contributing to disease progression. The aim of this
The Intermediate Data Structure (IDS) provides a common structure for storing and sharing historical demographic data. The structure also facilitates the construction of different open-access software to extract information from these tables and construct new variables. The article Using the Intermediate Data Structure (IDS) to Construct Files for Analysis (Quaranta 2015) presented a series of con
This study examines the influence of vortex core precession on flame flashback of swirl-stabilised hydrogen flames. Theoretical considerations suggest that the angular velocity of a swirling flow is reduced as vortex precession causes it to acquire an eccentric motion around the central axis of the burner. The eccentric motion of the vortex generates a secondary flow, which is thought to reduce th
This article presents results from 23 structured interviews focused on creative meetings (a crucial part of the definition being that something new is created in the meeting, through interaction between people). The interviewees represented many different fields of industry and academia, and together many hundred years of experience of meetings. Six main perspectives pertaining to creative process
Biochemical reactions powered by ATP hydrolysis are fundamental for the movement of molecules and cellular structures. One such reaction is the encapsidation of the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genome of an icosahedrally symmetric virus into a preformed procapsid with the help of a genome-translocating NTPase. Such NTPases have been characterized in detail from both RNA and tailed DNA viruses. We p
Objectives - In patients with large middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarcts, maximum brain swelling leading to cerebral herniation and death usually occurs 25 days after onset of stroke. The study aimed at exploring the pattern of compounds related to cerebral energy metabolism in infarcted brain tissue. Methods - Forty-four patients with malignant MCA infarcts were included after decision to perfor
