This paper tests the tenets of institutional theory by means of an empirical study of the contractual strategies applied in the Swedish venture capital industry. Venture capitalists differ in, for example, their preferences for early or later stage investments. Some have more experience than others and some are employed by public funds while others work in non-public funds. The sector, however, wa
In January 1990 an expert group was set up by DP2 of TC2, CEC to define the research and development work needed to be undertaken within the community to achieve a robust solution with respect to reaction-to-fire material classification. The expert group delivered in December 1990 its proposal for a 5-year research and development program. But a system of harmonised European fire test methods and
This paper analyses the adjustment process within the Swedish textile and wearing apparel sector and finds results that support the notion of Schumpeter's 'creative' destruction. The turnover of plants and jobs seems to 'improve' the industries from within due to an exit (entry) of less (more) productive plants, exit (entry) of old (new) incumbents, a destruction (creation) of less (more) human-ca

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Stroke patients frequently manifest moderate hyperhomocysteinemia. In most published studies, plasma homocysteine was measured at least 1 month after stroke (or the interval was not reported). To determine whether plasma homocysteine concentrations change in the acute phase, we compared acute-phase values with both convalescent-phase and control values. METHODS: Plasma homo
The Swedish Academy of Sciences was founded in 1739. The article presents and discusses the explicit language policy of the academy and analyzes some aspects of the language and rhetoric of the transactions (in Swedish) of the academy:textual organization, objectivity, rhetorical devices, lexical apparatus, syntactic machinery and techniques of presentation. Special interest is devoted to the tran
Oranic acid anhydrides (OAAs) are important reactive, low-molecular-weight industrial chemicals which induce allergic rhinitis and asthma in exposed subjects. Specific IgE has been demonstrated in a large proportion of OAA-exposed workers. The characteristics of the OAAs make them excellent model compounds for studies of quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) of allergenicity. In the
Popular Abstract in Swedish Nätverk av nervtrådar påvisades kring koronara artärer och vener från marsvin och människa. Medelst immunhistokemiska metoder demonstrerades olika signalsubstanser i anknytning till dessa nervtrådar och i olika delar av kärlväggen (endotelet, media, adventitia), och det påvisades hur vissa av dessa substanser var lokaliserade i samma vesikler av ovan nämnda nervtrådar. A network of perivascular nerve fibres was demonstrated in coronary arteries and veins from guinea-pig and man. Nerve fibres displaying immunoreactivity to neuropeptide Y (NPY) had a distribution pattern similar to those containing immunoreactivity to tyrosine hydroxylase. Immunoreactivity to substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) occurred in the same varicose nerve fibres, which w
Popular Abstract in Swedish I detta arbeta har reaktionerna 16O(γ,p)15N och 18O(γ,p)17N studerats med hjälp av reella fotoner. Fotonerna med vilka syrekärnorna har bestrålats har varit i energiområdet 50 - 70 MeV. De utgående laddade partiklarna såsom protoner, deuteroner och tritoner har detekterats med hjälp av två ΔE-ΔE-E teleskop placerade i 70o respektive 110o relativt fotonstrålen. De två 0.A measurement of the reactions 16O(γ,p)15N and 18O(γ,p)17N have been made with tagged photons in the energy range Eγ ≈ 50 – 70 MeV. The protons have been detected in ΔE-E telescopes with silicon strip detectors as ΔE detectors and HPGe crystals as E detectors. Two telescopes have been used with an average angle towards the photon beam of 70 and 110 degrees. The silicon strip detectors have been us
Polyphosphoinositides, the different phosphorylated variants of the phospholipid phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), are used in a wide array of intracellular mechanisms in eukaryotic cells. The phosphorylation of PtdIns at carbon D4, catalyzed by phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase, is an important step in the synthesis of several of these molecules. The presence of different isoenzymes of PtdIns 4-kinase i
The Energy using products (EuP) directive proposed by the European Commission is often referred to as "the first Integrated Product Policy (IPP) directive". The main purpose of the directive is to ensure the free movement of EuP in the internal market as well as to improve the environmental performance of products throughout their life cycle. Product groups likely to be addressed through the direc
