Differences in morphologies of bacteria and bacteria clusters are thought to contribute to their virulence and colonization. However, the conventional standard cell biological methods cannot separate bacteria and bacteria clusters based on their morphologies and sizes, making studies of the underlying mechanisms difficult. Here we report a simple label-free method for the continuous separation of

This chapter focuses on taxation in Africa since 1900. Using existing data and insights from the literature, the chapter documents taxes collected by colonial and post-colonial states, exploring what was taxed, the types of taxes, the tax revenue patterns and the socio-political contexts shaping taxation policies. It begins by discussing the fundamental principles of taxation and forms of direct a

The acoustic emission that is detectable in the forming of complex thin part plates contains information about the quality of the pressed plates. The information can be used as process control and to filter out advanced thin plates with defects such as cracks. The article describes the results obtained in a try-out pressing process in special developed punch-die pairs with different pressing

This article analyzes the migration experiences of thirteen separated minors who arrived in Sweden between 1943 and 2008. Using the framework of the “liberated self” this chapter shows that the experiences of separated minors are shaped in the intersection between contexts and conditions of transnational migration and the Swedish reception system. Their efforts to continue living based on the past

To describe a new model for in vitro assessment of novel vitreous substitute candidates.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Dagens storskaliga tillverkning baseras på varor med relativt kort livstid och lågt pris. Vinsterna för tillverkarna kommer från den stora mängden sålda varor. Det finns dock inom många industribranscher krympande vinstmarginaler och många företag söker därför efter nya källor för att uppnå bättre rörelseresultat. Även miljöfrågorna är en utmaning för industrin. VäxandeLife cycle environmental problems have been addressed by a number of strategies. However, the results are mostly lamentable because solutions are searched for within the same paradigms that give rise to the problems. This research questions the vision of linear material growth and searches for ways to sustain economic growth without putting the natural environment under stress. The research explor

Background: To evaluate and describe the cone function in the normal and lesioned rabbit retina using the multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG). Methods: Twelve animals underwent a two-port vitrectomy with subsequent retinectomy in one eye. The area of removed retina was located in the nasal part of the visual streak, and measured approximately 1-2 disc diameters. Both eyes were investigated with m

This report presents results regarding fear of crime amongst young people in a small Swedish town, Ljungby. It also considers the experience of violence and other types of crime. A questionnaire was distributed to 320 students in upper secondary school during October 2001. The results from these questionnaires shows that female students more often than male students state that they are worried whe

Aim: The aim of the study was to reveal young carers' views of design of a web-based support system (WBSS) directed to them and the differences between their views and the views of project representatives (PRs), in a participatory design process. Methods: Eight young people, 17-24 years, were involved in either a work or a test group. The work group participated in video-recorded design meetings w

There is a growing evidence that neuropeptides may be involved in the pathophysiology of suicidal behavior. A critical review of the literature was conducted to investigate the association between neuropeptides and suicidal behavior. Only articles from peer-reviewed journals were selected for the inclusion in the present review. Twenty-six articles were assessed for eligibility but only 22 studies

The formation of segmental grooves during mid embryogenesis in the Drosophila epidermis depends on the specification of a single row of groove cells posteriorly adjacent to cells that express the Hedgehog signal. However, the mechanism of groove formation and the role of the parasegmental organizer, which consists of adjacent rows of hedgehog- and wingless-expressing cells, are not well understood

In today’s society people are overwhelmed with information about different kinds of heating systems. The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that impact households when they make decisions on heating systems, and also how households value different types of information on the subject. Four Swedish municipalities were chosen for closer examination. Municipal energy advisors and represe
