Interest in the use of renewable raw materials for the production of various compounds that can replace fossil-based products is steadily increasing. In this study, the extraction and separation of hemicellulosic oligomers from spruce, to be used for the production of polymers such as hydrogels, was investigated. The focus of the study was on gel filtration of the solution from steam treatment of

Objective: To monitor changes in serum concentrations of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) during a 24-h period to determine any diurnal variation, and to estimate the half life of COMP in the circulation in patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis and in those with rheumatoid arthritis. Methods: Serum samples were drawn every 4 h (7 samples/patient over 24 h) in 10 patients with kne

Polymers containing the Azo-benzene group have attracted attention due to anticipated uses such as materials for data storage, membranes with controllable permeability and materials with changeable solubility [1,2]. These expectations are due to the change in shape and dipole moment of the Azo-compound when excited by photo isomerization from the trans-state to the cis-state by UV light of ca 360

Today's handheld computing devices equipped with novel wireless network technologies can provide their users with features such as mobility, multimedia support and group communication. On the other hand, the administrative effort required to enable all these features increases beyond the level that an ordinary user can manage. Ad hoc networks, being able to quickly organise themselves without user

Phosphorylation of oestrogen receptor alpha at serine 305 (ERalphaS305-P) induces tamoxifen resistance in experimental studies, but does not influence response to other endocrine agents, such as fulvestrant. We evaluated ERalphaS305-P using immunohistochemistry in 377 breast carcinomas from premenopausal participants of a randomized trial (n = 248) and patients with advanced disease (n = 129). Amo

This thesis investigates the possibility of the mediated city providing a space for resistance in everyday life in a society where free speech channels are strictly controlled. The case studied in this thesis is the phenomenon of a group of fans of a singer who has been banned by the government in mainland China writing graffiti in public urban space on Rehe Road in Nanjing to express their love a

Tidsberoende effekter, såsom krypning, krympning och stålrelaxation, är ofta svåra att prediktera när det kommer till förspända betongkonstruktioner. Krypning som ett fenomen är komplicerat och förenklas därför i gällande byggnormer (Eurocode), för att underlätta konstruktörens arbete. När det gäller etappvis spännarmerade betongbroar har dessa förenklingar visat sig ge felaktiga prognoser av de tLong-term effects, such as creep, shrinkage, and steel relaxation, are often difficult to predict for prestressed concrete structures. Creep as a phenomenon is complicated to describe and is therefore simplified in the current building standards, to better accommodate the designer. When dealing with segmentally constructed prestressed concrete bridges, these simplifications have shown to provide i

Many companies today are introducing services in their portfolios as a result of globalization and increased competition. Service offerings are however significantly different from product offerings both in terms of company resources and processes and customer perceived value. A stronger service orientation includes a focus on relational and process aspects as opposed to transactional and product

This report is an investigation on how well fuel sloshing in a rotating cylindrical tank can be modeled numerically. The investigation is motivated by the need to understand the fuel sloshing in the new Ariane 6 rocket developed by the European Space Agency. Two cases are studied, the lled tank and the half lled tank at Reynolds numbers of 71000-212000. The softwares studied are FINE/Open with Ope

This thesis examines the role of political satire in the Bulgarian public sphere through the case of the satirical newspaper Pras Press. The bi-weekly publication is centered around political cartooning and reports on public affairs issues from pop culture to current events. It relies on online dissemination as its print editions have been, and continue to be, the object of censorship for the news

In the search for grasping how the everyday life experience for people with a disability is shaped in relation to the local social and political complexities in Cobija/Pando four themes are crucial to understand. Firstly, illustrating how the rhetorical definition of disability removes the wrongfulness or responsibility from the shoulders of the individual to an exclusive social environment. Even

Barnets bästa, liksom barnets rätt till skydd mot risken att själv eller någon i familjen far illa, intar en central och överordnad ställning inom svensk familje-rätt. Samtidigt har barnets behov av kontakt med båda sina föräldrar under lång tid utgjort en bärande utgångspunkt i rättstillämpningen. När dessa mot-stående intressen kommer i konflikt, inte minst i situationer där våld före-kommit i nThe best interests of the child, as well as the child´s right to protection from the risk of suffering harm either directly or through harm to a family member, hold a central and superior position within Swedish family law. At the same time, the child´s need for contact with both parents has long constituted a guiding principle in legal practice. When these considerations are set against one anoth

According to an urban planning directive issued by the Chinese Central Government in early 2016, the Community Opening Policy will be put on the agenda to ameliorate transportation networks, which has aroused much attention regarding the coming changes in traffic, especially in road network structures. Nevertheless, few studies were concerned with the direct and indirect impacts of opening gated c
