A study of existing organic waste types in Malmo, Sweden was performed. The purpose was to gather information about organic waste types in the city to be able to estimate the potential for anaerobic treatment in existing digesters at the wastewater treatment plan (WWTP). The urban organic waste types that could have a significant potential for anaerobic digestion amount to about 50 000 tonnes year

Human neuroblastoma cells SH-SY5Y and neuroblastoma-glioma cells NG 108-15 have been used as models for the elucidation of the effects of ethanol on receptor-mediated phospholipase C activity, c-fos mRNA expression and protein kinase C activity. Cells were exposed to ethanol (0-200 mM) for varying periods up to seven days. Agonist stimulated events were obtained in NG 108-15 cells with bradykinin

The method of sorption calorimetry allows simultaneous monitoring of water activity and the partial molar enthalpy of mixing of water. The way of calibration of sorption calorimeter affects the accuracy of the data obtained in sorption experiments. In order to improve the accuracy of the method one can use physico-chemical calibration instead of electrical calibration. The system for use in the ca

Catalytically active wire meshes were used to combust different pollutants present in flue gases from bio-fuel combustion, e.g. CO, propylene, terpenes and tar. Alumina was spray-deposited onto wire meshes of Kanthal AF (8-20 Tayler mesh) with a plasma spray equipment. The specific surface area of the ceramic layer was increased through wash coating, in-situ precipitation or sol-treatment. The cat

The recently introduced intrauterine growth curve, based on ultrasonically estimated foetal weights, was retrospectively applied to an inborn population of 883 infants born before 33 gestational weeks at the University Hospital of Lund, during 1985-94. The estimation of birthweight deviation resulted in 630 (71.3%) infants with a birthweight appropriate for gestational age (AGA), 244 (27.6%) infan

Between the 1950s and the 1980s, the incidence of forearm fractures increased in the city of Malmo. We have now collected data on all forearm fractures during 1991 and 1992 and compared them with previously published data from 1953-1957 and 1980-1981. During the 1990s, 1314 individuals with wrist fractures and 125 with shaft fractures were recorded. In men, we found a twofold increase in the stand

Objectives. To determine the utility of single-stranded conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis for mutation screening in the BTK (Bruton's tyrosine kinase) gene, we investigated 56 X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) families. To obtain genotype/ phenotype correlations, predicted protein aberrations were correlated with the clinical course of the disease. Patients. This study included 56 patients

The fate of ornithine in the nephron of the female OF-1 Swiss mouse remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to identify the nephron segments containing the key enzymes involved in ornithine metabolism: ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and ornithine aminotransferase (OAT). Viable tubules isolated by microdissection were incubated with [1-14C]ornithine to study the oxidative pathway. Other tu

The report shows a validation of the brush tire-model towards measurement data performed in the RFE-project within the IVSS-framework. The data is recorded by VTI at Colmis Proving Ground in Arjeplog. The winter tire, Continental ContiWinterContact TS810 215/55R16, the summer tire, Continental ContiSportContact 225/45R17 91W, and the studded tire: Gislaved Nordfrost 3 215/55R16 are tested longitud

Popular Abstract in Swedish Tunnelbygget genom Hallandsåsen har utvecklats på ett sådant sätt och fått sådana konsekvenser, att frågan hur projektet skall förstås och förklaras är viktig. Vill man studera vilka mekanismer i samhället som kan förhindra projektets förlopp eller dess konsekvenser, bör man först förstå projektet. Matthias Baiers bok handlar om hur man med normer kan förstå och beskrivIn 1992 Swedens biggest tunnelproject begun. Two 8.5 km tunnels should cross a big ridge in southern Sweden which was seen as an obstacle to a fast and efficient railway line connecting Oslo and Gothenburg with Malmö and Copenhagen. However, the project had to stop in 1997 due to environmental damages. With only a third of the tunnel accomplished, the project was also much delayed and had a heavy

Allodia (Brachycampta) huggerti sp. n. from Sweden and Allodia (Brachycampta) rindeni sp. n. from Norway and Sweden are described based on a few adult males. Detailed illustrations of their terminalia are provided. The A. (B.) barbata species group is defined for species of which both dorsal and ventral branches of the male gonostylus are reduced to slender lobes, and the two new species both belo

Browning offers rich information on theories in current moral psychology. He criticizes these theories and states the superiority of the Christian narrative for the understanding and grounding of morality. This short text is a critical comment to his standpoint.

AIMS: To test a stress-disease hypothesis by investigating the influence of social network and social support factors on the course over time of the CD4 lymphocytes in an HIV-positive population of gay men. METHODS: The study is a prospective cohort study of a representative population of HIV-positive gay men, undertaken at the Department of Infectious Diseases, Malmö University Hospital. This is

Popular Abstract in Swedish Meads centrala påstående var att medvetandet uppstår mellan människor. Det individuella subjektet framträder därmed som en effekt. Jag har lyft fram det faktum att Miget ? agenten snarare än subjektet ? föregår och ingår i den sociala interaktionen. I och med det föregår Miget subjekt/objekt distinktionen vilken blir relevant först när interaktionen är en realitet. Den This thesis is about aesthetic observance. By these terms I intend to give an account of a social phenomenon considered an angle of approach on the understanding of norms. I narrow down the problems with the perspective from social psychology. The central claim by George Herbert Mead was that mind arises from human interaction. The individual subject by this means appears as an effect. I whish to

Three different models of tactile shape perception inspired by the human haptic system were tested using an 8 d.o.f. robot hand with 45 tactile sensors. One model is based on the tensor product of different proprioceptive and tactile signals and a self-organizing map (SOM). The two other models replace the tensor product operation with a novel self-organizing neural network, the Tensor-Multiple Pe
