Otillräckliga insatser, låg status, svag styrning och litet inflytande från branscherna gör att lärlingsutbildningarna inte lyfter trots politiska initiativ. Arbetsgivarna bör ta större del i utformningen och genomförandet av utbildningarna.

IgE is a minor component of the humoral immune response but one that is of extensive medical importance as it is a major mediator of type 1 hypersensitivity or allergy. Allergy affects up to 30% of the population in the industrialized countries, consequently affecting the quality of life of millions of people. In this study we sought to investigate the IgE repertoire and its evolution as it occurs

Analysis of pressure transients in long, single pipelines for water transport has a potential of providing information on hydraulic features such as air/gas pockets,leaks. Thus the transient measured in a pipeline for sewage water had an oscillation period compatible with the location of a local high point of the pipe profile. The effect of leaks on transients was studied by means of computer mo

BACKGROUND: Circulating prostate cells can be detected with a reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assay for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) mRNA. We have developed a new quantitative RT-PCR method for measuring PSA mRNA. METHODS: The method uses a PSA-like internal standard (IS) mRNA that is added into the sample at the beginning of the RNA extraction and coamplified by RT-PCR with the PSA in the s

For developers of automotive control, prototyping and initial tests are a hassle. Commercial solutions are available but the price and especially the price/performance ratio opens the field for more cost effective solutions. Automotive rapid prototype systems seen so far are mainly processor based systems with standard interrupt driven measurement and actuation. Control systems based on high time

This key note paper discusses the history and status of Gender Studies in Sweden.

The method of moments is used to solve electromagenetic boundary value problems numerically. It is known that the choice of basis functions is crucial for the numerical efficiency. Fast convergence is achieved provided the basis functions efficiently approximate the unknown function. In this paper the far field (incl. RCS) of a thin square conducting plate is calculated. Basis functions with corre

The present paper makes some preliminary hypotheses about the constraints on prosodic phrasing in spontaneous Swedish speech. Within Optimality Theory, linguistic phenomena such as prosodic phrasing are explained through the interaction of constraints (McCarthy & Prince 1993). One may assume that there are a number of constraints that interact to determine what prosodic form an utterance is as
