Frågan om bevarande av och långsiktigt utnyttjande av miljön framstår som en av vår tids viktigaste frågor. Bland tillgängliga åtgärder på miljöområdet finns kriminalisering: ett styrmedel med kraftfull klang men med begränsad räckvidd och nytta och framför allt en åtgärd som endast bör användas som sista utväg i enlighet med principen om ultima ratio. Sålunda anses varje straffbeläggande genereEnvironmental sustainability is one of the most important issues of our time and environmental harm can be dealt with in numerous ways. One strategy is to use criminal prohibitions. Fighting environmental crime has a powerful ring to it, but the reach of the criminal law is limited and its usefulness often highly (and sadly) overestimated. Such factors, combined with the adverse effects typically

Idrottsrörelsen med fotboll i fokus har kommit att förändra sin struktur avsevärt under 1900-talet. Fotbollen har gått från att vara en ideell verksamhet med syfte att samla de lokala invånarna för att utöva sporten till en miljardindustri inom Europa. EU:s konkurrensregler har kommit att spela en viktig roll för att främja idrottens utveckling samt förhindra att marknaden snedvrids genom ekonomisSport movement especially football has change its structure of the sport drastically during the 20th century. Football has transformed from being a non-profit activity with one of its purpose to gather the locals for a friendly game to a multibillion industry within Europe. EU: s competition law has played a crucial part to maintain the development for sport and to prevent distortion of competitio

This paper draws on two ethnographic research projects in Japanese university sports clubs to examine the role alcohol plays in the social and cultural education of students. Over the course of a four-year membership, the university sports club is a site where members learn to negotiate drinking. This negotiation is demonstrated by the range of strategies members employ when engaging in one of the

Background: Conceptualizing affect as two separate signal sensitivity subsystems, defined as high/low positive affect and high/low negative affect, implies that (A) the study of affectivity needs the interaction between these two dimensions in a complex adaptive meta-system composed of combinations beyond the two-system approach and that (B) this meta-system is associated to individual differences

Due to the increasing share of older people worldwide, the United Nations has directed an initiative towards a "decade of healthy ageing" to promote "age-friendly environments". This study aims to gain a deeper understanding of how to promote social participation and everyday mobility in later life. The ambition is to increase the knowledge about how to create more age-friendly environments and soDue to the increasing share of older people worldwide, the United Nations has directed an initiative towards a "decade of healthy ageing" to promote "age-friendly environments".

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vår forskningsgrupp har tidigare påvisat kraftiga förändringar i genuttryck för neurotrofiner, en familj av tillväxtfaktorer för nervceller, och deras receptorer i kortikala och hippokampala nervceller vid olika hjärnskador. Det är till stora delar okänt vilken funktion neurotrofiner har efter hjärnskador, men neurotrofinsvaret skulle kunna vara en skyddande mekanism ocThis study explores the role of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) for neuronal vulnerability and neurogenesis following cerebral ischemia in the rat. Cerebral ischemia results in selective neuronal cell loss in specific brain regions. We here demonstrate the rank order of vulnerability in two regions affected by global forebrain ischemia, i.e., hippocampus and striatum, by combining specifi

The adsorption of proteins is a very common phenomenon, happening almost always when a protein solution comes into contact with a solid. However, it is far from always clear what the results of adsorption will be in terms of adsorbed amount, protein orientation, and protein conformation. In this work, the adsorption of two proteins – histatin 5 and fibrinogen – has been studied using coarse-graine

Low or reduced energy availability (LEA) is linked to functional hypothalamic oligomenorrhea/amenorrhea (FHA), which is frequently reported in weight-sensitive sports. This makes LEA a major nutritional concern for female athletes. The aim of this study was to describe dietary characteristics of athletes with LEA and/or FHA. Endurance athletes (n = 45) were recruited from national teams and compet

Rh immune globulin (WinRho SDF; Cangene, Mississauga, ON, Canada) is an effective treatment for autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura; however, maintaining a sustained supply for its use in autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura and its primary indication, hemolytic disease of the newborn, makes the development of alternative reagents desirable. We compared Rh immune globulin and 6 human monoclonal ant

Primary immune thrombocytopenia is an autoimmune disease associated with a reduced peripheral blood platelet count. The phenotype is variable with some patients suffering no bleeding whilst others have severe bleeding which may be fatal. Variability in clinical behaviour and treatment responses reflects its complex underlying pathophysiology. Historically the management has relied heavily on immun

The glycosylation status of IgG has been implicated in the pathology of rheumatoid arthritis. Earlier, we reported the identification of a novel secreted endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (EndoS), secreted by Streptococcus pyogenes that specifically hydrolyzes the beta-1,4-di-N-acetylchitobiose core of the asparagine-linked glycan of human IgG. Here, we analyzed the arthritogenicity of EndoS-treat

Cryogels have been demonstrated to be efficient when applied for protein isolation. Owing to their macroporous structure, cryogels can also be used for treating particle-containing material, e.g. cell homogenates. Another challenging development in protein purification technology is the use of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). These MIPs are robust and can be used repeatedly. The paper presen
