Entrepreneurial universities contribute directly and indirectly to supporting all stages of entrepreneurship. The challenge for entrepreneurial universities is how they can best support academic entrepreneurs through these stages of entrepreneurship. This has led to the creation of different and often ad hoc organizational units within an entrepreneurial university. The organizational challenge fo
The Burmese uḍhaya procedure represents a simplified calculation of the oblique ascension of the Sun that was used in Indian astronomy and astrology. The calculation has obvious connections with an Indian astronomical work, the Pauliśasiddhânta, and with works written by Brahmagupta. We investigate the Burrnese procedure mathematically to find out why it works.
Production of a protein of interest in bacteria and its purification from bacterial lysates are valuable tools for the purification of larger amounts of recombinant proteins. The low cost of culturing, and the rapid cell growth of bacteria make this host a good choice for protein production, but the folding and function of the purified protein might be altered due to the production of a eukaryotic
PurposeArchitectural theorists have a long tradition of acknowledging the centrality of building users to architectural production. This article contributes to the discourse on architecture, actor–network theory (ANT), and users by proposing a typology of user translations ranging from supporting to tinkering to adjusting to resisting.Design/methodology/approachThe research utilises an ANT-inspire
The growing menace of global warming and restrictions on access to water in each region is a huge threat to global hydrological sustainability. Hence, the perspective at which hydrological studies are currently being carried out across the world to quantify and understand the water cycle modeling requires a further boost. In the past few decades, the theoretical understanding of machine learning (
The investigation of compounds capable of strongly and selectively interacting with DNA comprises a field of research in constant development. In this work, we demonstrate that a trinuclear coordination complex based on a dinuclear Fe(III)Zn(II) core designed for biomimicry of the hydrolytic enzyme kidney bean purple acid phosphatase, containing an additional pendant arm coordinating a Pd(II) ion,
Skeletal muscle is an endocrine organ secreting exercise-induced factors (exerkines), which play a pivotal role in interorgan cross talk. Using mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics, we characterized the secretome and identified thymosin b4 (TMSB4X) as the most upregulated secreted protein in the media of contracting C2C12 myotubes. TMSB4X was also acutely increased in the plasma of exercising h
This article, based on a case study of direct action within the Swedish extra-parliamentary left, offers an investigation of political resistance as an embodied activity heavily associated with bodily vulnerability. In doing so, the article challenges the description of the extra-parliamentary left as a ‘violent extremist environment,’ offered by Swedish state authorities. The case study draws upo
Purpose: Nutrition plays a key role in supporting the human immune system and reducing the risk of infections. However, there is limited evidence exploring the relationship between diet and the risk of COVID-19. This study aimed to assess the associations between consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF) and COVID-19 risk. Methods: In total, 41,012 participants from the UK Biobank study with at l
Large eddy simulation of flow past a rigid prism of a square cross section with one side facing the oncoming flow at Re=2.2×104 is performed. An incompressible code is used employing an implicit fractional step method finite volume with second-order accuracy in space and time. Three different subgrid scale models: the Smagorinsky, the standard dynamic, and a dynamic one-equation model, are applied
Background: The marine thermophilic bacterium Rhodothermus marinus can degrade many polysaccharides which makes it interesting as a future cell factory. Progress using this bacterium has, however, been hampered by limited knowledge on media and conditions for biomass production, often resulting in low cell yields and low productivity, highlighting the need to develop conditions that allow stu
ObjectivesDiet has received attention as a factor possibly contributing to the development of Rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Several dietary exposures have been examined in various populations using different diet assessment methods. The aim of this study was to systematically assess the literature on the relation between dietary patterns, different food and food groups, macronutrients, non-alcoholic
Structures may collapse during the cooling phase of a fire, yet standard furnace tests only measure the response under heating. There lacks experimental test protocols and design methods to assess resistance until burnout. This paper describes a new experimental approach for burnout resistance evaluation, reports experimental data on loaded reinforced concrete columns in furnace tests with cooling
A search for events with two displaced vertices from long-lived particle (LLP) pairs using data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented. This analysis uses 139 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data at s=13 TeV recorded in 2015-2018. The search employs techniques for reconstructing vertices of LLPs decaying to jets in the muon spectrometer displaced between 3 and 14 m with respect to
Background: Gallstones intervention during pregnancy might be a stressful event for both mother and fetus and stress might affect outcome. The aim of this study was to identify factors that might improve the care of pregnant patients in need of intervention for gallstone disease. Methods: By crossmatching the Swedish Registry of Gallstone Surgery and Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography
Objective: The purpose of this study was to clarify the clinical heterogeneity of alcohol use disorder (AUD) in a national Swedish sample of affected individuals using latent class analysis. Method: Using a Swedish population-based sample of AUD cases ascertained from medical, criminal, and pharmacy registries (n = 217,071), we applied latent class analysis to sex, externalizing and internalizing
Atmospheric particles play a significant role in radiative forcing through light scattering and new methods are called for to better characterize their impact. Typical Lidar systems emit single wavelength light, not utilizing full spectral information from scattering measurements. This thesis aims to use a hyperspectral lidar system to measure the spectral dependence of scattering and absorption
The unprecedented decline in external health aid has disrupted health services across low- and middle-income countries, many of which are simultaneously facing rising levels of non-communicable diseases and weak primary healthcare, increasing the need to examine how donor-driven non-communicable disease programmes can be sustained beyond programme completion. This thesis unfolds how sustainability
