An accident on a passenger ferry may lead to evacuation using lifeboats or liferafts, a process that can be both complex and hazardous. This paper investigates the level of safety for passengers during evacuation based on field study and interview data. In the analysis, the eight goals of Universal Design (UD) were tailored and used to explore what ship and interior characteristics influence evacu
CysK1 and CysK2 are two members of the cysteine/S-sulfocysteine synthase family in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, responsible for the de novo biosynthesis of L-cysteine, which is subsequently used as a building block for mycothiol. This metabolite is the first line defense of this pathogen against reactive oxygen and nitrogen species released by host macrophages after phagocytosis. In a previous medi

The European Union's long-term budget negotiations during the summer of 2005 were obstructed from being successful due to a quite fierceful debate about the future guidelines of the Common Agricultural Policy.

Marine copepods are the most abundant type of zooplankton of the ocean in terms of biomass. They imprint their surrounding waters with a unique signature of chemical compounds, out of which copepodamides stand out. These polar lipids are recognized by some phytoplanktonic species, who induce defensive traits in response, including bioluminescence and toxin production, colony size plasticity or str
Entreprenadavtal ingås ofta efter upphandling. I utförandeentreprenader betyder det att beställaren har ansvar för att projektera och tillhandahålla entreprenörer ett utförligt förfrågningsunderlag.
