The use and significance of timber structures are on the rise, especially thanks to crosslaminated timber (CLT). This engineered wood product is manufactured by stacking multiple layers of wood lamellae, each oriented perpendicularly to the one below it, and then bonding them with adhesives to form a floor or wall panel. Timber, as a building material, presents potential environmental benefits ove

The main topic of this Thesis is the x-ray spectroscopic studies of free nano-clusters with size more than 10^3 atoms. The photoelectron spectroscopy experiments on rare gas and metal clusters were performed at beamline I411 at MAX-lab National Swedish synchrotron radiation facility. Free rare-gas clusters are simplest objects in cluster research. However their electronic structure springs a lot
Birds are generally capable of accurate orientation. In this thesis I present studies about the external cues and the ecological factors that influences bird orientation. A multitude of environmental cues are used to select and maintain a proper direction. These are visual cues, like the sun and the starry night sky, but other cues like the geomagnetic field, wind and odours also play important ro
Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) and its core member enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) mediate the epigenetic gene silencing mark: trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone 3 (H3K27me3). H3K27me3 is characteristic of the chromatin at genes involved in developmental regulation in undifferentiated cells. Overexpression of EZH2 has been found in several cancer types such as breast, prostate, melano

Background. During the translation of mRNA into polypeptide, elongation factor G (EF-G) catalyzes the translocation of peptidyl-tRNA from the A site to the P site of the ribosome. According to the 'classical' model, EF-G in the GTP-bound form promotes translocation, while hydrolysis of the bound GTP promotes dissociation of the factor from the post-translocation ribosome. According to a more recen
We demonstrate the potential of infrared degenerate four-wave mixing (IR-DFWM) as a tool for non-intrusive in situ spatially resolved detection of CH3Cl in reactive hot gas flows especially feasible for applications to biomass combustion and gasification. IR-DFWM spectra of CH3Cl, by probing ro-vibrational transitions belonging to the fundamental stretching modes v(1) and v(4), have been successfu
The phase behavior and aggregation properties of a triblock copolymer of ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO), with a measured composition (EO)29(PO)40(EO)29, in aqueous solutions containing salt, have been examined using dynamic light scattering, rheological techniques, and sedimentation and viscosity measurements. The copolymer is dissolved as a unimer at low temperatures and forms spher
Globular clusters (GCs) are among the oldest and densest stellar systems in the Universe, yet how they form remains a mystery1. Here we present a suite of cosmological simulations in which both dark-matter-free GCs and dark-matter-rich dwarf galaxies naturally emerge in the Standard Cosmology. We show that these objects inhabit distinct locations in the size–luminosity plane and that they have sim
Background: Pesticides and metals may disrupt thyroid function, which is key to fetal brain development. Objectives: To evaluate if current-use pesticide exposures, lead and excess manganese alter free thyroxine (FT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) concentrations in pregnant women from the Infants' Environmental Health Study (ISA). Methods: At enrollment, we de

Hyaluronan is a free glycosaminoglycan which is abundant in the extracellular matrix of the developing brain. Although not covalently linked to any protein it can act as a backbone molecule forming aggregates with chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans of the lectican family and link proteins. Using neurocan-GFP as a direct histochemical probe we analyzed the distribution and organization of hyaluronan
