Achieving efficient electrochemical communication between redox enzymes and various electrode materials is one of the main challenges in bioelectrochemistry and is of great importance for developing electronic applications. Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is an extracellular flavocytochrome composed of a catalytic FAD containing dehydrogenase domain (DH(CDH)), a heme b containing cytochrome domain

Tetra Pak Packaging Material AB (TPPM) is the division within the Tetra Pak concern that produces the packaging material that later on will be used for liquid products. There are 63 TPPM plants in the world, and the factory in Lund is one of the largest with its 325 employees. It is also the TPPM factory that manufactures the most varied set of packages. There are nine producing machines, divi

Ett av Sveriges sexton miljömål är att bevara den biologiska mångfalden, alltså den mångfald av växt- och djurarter som lever i vårt land. Ett stort hot mot den biologiska mångfalden är fragmentering av de ekosystem där djuren och växterna lever. Vad innebär då fragmentering av ett ekosystem? Enkelt uttryckt kan man se fragmentering som att dela upp ett sammanhängande ekosystem i mindre utspridda The “Eastern slopes of Lake Vättern” is an area situated in the municipality of Jönköping in southern Sweden. The area has a high level of biodiversity of which much is bound to mixed broad-leaved deciduous trees and forests and contains species that are unique for this area in Sweden. The area is a candidate to become a biosphere reserve under the Unesco Man and Biosphere program. One ambition in

Response of passerine birds to an irruption of a pine processionary moth Thaumetopoea pityocampa population with a shifted phenology The main purpose of the present work was to investigate if the passerine community was able to respond to it localized irruption of a temporally shifted population of the pine processionary moth Thaumetopoea pityocampa, the larval development of which takes place dur

This article considers the challenges faced by digital evidence specialists when collaborating with other specialists and agencies in other jurisdictions when investigating cyber crime. The opportunities, operational environment and modus operandi of a cyber criminal are considered, with a view to developing the skills and procedural support that investigators might usefully consider in order to r

Sealings are an important part in the industrial robot. One important property of the seal is to keep all particles and fluids from the outside, away from the important components inside the robot. Another important property is to keep the oil and grease inside the robot, and prevent leakage. The seal also prevent leakage inside the industrial robot and reduces the risks of sensitive components to

Access to compatible blood for transfusion is a prerequisite for modern health care. The compatibility is limited by the presence of antibodies to blood group antigens, polymorphic protein and carbohydrate structures, on the surface of the red blood cell. Blood group antigens arise from genetic variation in the genes underlying their expression. Knowledge of these genes and their variation can fac

Although bedside screening tests are routinely used to identify people at high risk of having a difficult airway, their clinical utility is unclear. We estimated the diagnostic accuracy of commonly used bedside examination tests for assessing the airway in adult patients without apparent anatomical abnormalities scheduled to undergo general anaesthesia. We searched for studies that reported our pr

In this chapter, the pathophysiology and neurochemical pathology of epileptic brain damage is discussed on the basis of an integrative approach in which a comparison is made to cell necrosis resulting from ischemia and hypoglycemia. Two main questions are asked. First, is the brain damage resulting from these three disorders of cerebral energy metabolism similar in distribution and structural char

AIMS: The very long-term outcome of patients who survive the first few years after receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has not been well described thus far. We aimed to provide long-term outcomes, especially with regard to the occurrence of sudden cardiac death (SCD), in CRT patients without (CRT-P) and with defibrillator (CRT-D).METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 1775 patients, with is

Allt fler personer reser allt längre sträckor för att ta sig till och från jobbet. En starkt bidragande orsak till detta är en strävan att öka den ekonomiska tillväxten genom att göra arbetskraften tillgänglig över allt större geografiska områden. I Sverige har både pendlingstid och avstånd stadigt ökat under de senaste decennierna och idag tillbringar den genomsnittliga pendlaren mer än en timme Allt fler personer reser allt längre sträckor för att ta sig till och från jobbet.

Aspecuality, temporality and modality: a relevance-theoretic analysisof some pragmatic markers in Mandarin Chinese It is generally agreed that in Mandarin Chinese, tense (at least absolute tense) is not expressedmorphologically but there is a number of verbal and sentence-final particles that express aspect and mood. These (in particular the aspectual ones) have been studied rather extensively thr

Objectives: We investigated the potential associations between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of total tau (T-tau) and phosphorylated tau (P-tau), short-term response to cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI) treatment, longitudinal outcome and progression rates in Alzheimer’s disease (AD).Methods: The Swedish Alzheimer Treatment Study (SATS) is a prospective, observational, multicentre study to assess

Background: As part of I-O Optimise, a multinational research platform providing real-world insights into the management of lung cancers, the SCAN-LEAF study aims to describe the epidemiology, clinical care, and outcomes for pts with NSCLC in Scandinavia. Here, we report temporal OS trends among pts diagnosed with incident NSCLC from 2005 to 2015 in Denmark and Sweden. Methods: The SCAN-LEAF Danis

Background: The hand is the second most fractured region in children. It is therefore important to update fracture epidemiology to be able to identify time trends for adequate health care planning. This study reports pediatric hand fracture incidence 2014–2016 and, using published data, also long-term time trends in 1950–2016. Patients and methods: The Swedish city of Malmö, with 328,494 inhabitan

Background: Access to emergency and essential surgical care is still unmet and accessibility is disproportionately inequitable in Ethiopia and other low-and middle-income countries. The aim of this study was to assess surgical care access in terms of capability, capacity, and timeliness of care in different levels of health care in Ethiopia. Methods: A cross-sectional study with retrospective data

Background: The aims of this study are to 1) determine the scope of musculoskeletal (MSK)-related clinical research in Sweden; 2) collate the amount of first-tier funding received; 3) discuss strategies and infrastructure supporting future MSK clinical trials in Sweden. Methods: A systematic scoping review protocol was applied in PubMed, Scopus, and SweCRIS databases. The articles were examined, a

With the continued development of tracking technology and increasing interest in animal movement, our understanding of migration behavior has become more comprehensive. However, there are still many species that have not been well studied, particularly sea birds. Here, we present the first year-round Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking data of the Black-tailed Gull (Larus crassirostris) at th
