La structure de la viande hachée évolue au cours de la cuisson, ce qui a une influence sur les transferts de chaleur et de matière. L'étude a porté sur la friture de steaks hachés de 10 mm d'épaisseur et de 3 à 10 cm de diamètre, provenant de 4 sortes de viande. La cuisson avait lieu entre deux plaques chauffées à 100, 150 ou 175 °C. Elle faisait passer le produit depuis l'état congelé à -20°C jus
The relative strength of different types of directional selection has seldom been compared directly in natural populations. A recent meta-analysis of phenotypic selection studies in natural populations suggested that directional sexual selection may be stronger in magnitude than directional natural selection, although this pattern may have partly been confounded by the different time scales over w
Absolute regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured in ten healthy volunteers, using both dynamic susceptibility-contrast (DSC) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Xe-133 SPECT within 4 h. After i.v. injection of Gd-DTPA-BMA (0.3 mmol/kg b.w.), the bolus was monitored with a Simultaneous Dual FLASH pulse sequence (1.5 s/image), providing one slice through brain tissue and a second slice thro
A 2-y nationwide survey of patients in Denmark with non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) cultures was undertaken. Patients were identified by means of records held at the International Reference Laboratory of Mycobacteriology, Statens Serum Institut, Denmark. The objectives were to identify isolated NTM to species level, to describe the incidence of the various species and to evaluate the clinical s
In a regional population of 32,120 liveborn newborn infants 65 (0.2%) had a birthweight less than or equal to 900 g (extremely small low birthweight = ESLBW) with mean gestational age 26.4 (range 22-31) completed weeks of gestation. The total 0-1 year survival rate was 48%. For the 42 infants treated in the Level III regional neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) the 0-1 year survival rate was 55% v
Vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms have been implicated in susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB), but reports have been inconsistent. We genotyped the VDR single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) FokI, BsmI, ApaI, and TaqI in 1139 case patients and control subjects and 382 families from The Gambia, Guinea, and Guinea-Bissau. The transmission-disequilibrium test on family data showed a signifi
Responses to isotonic quick release of AC-stimulated smooth muscle strips from rabbit urinary bladder were analysed. Releases were performed at the peak of contraction and at a preset tension level in the contraction and relaxation phase. In other expts. responses at 37 degrees C and 27 degrees C were compared. The length response always consisted of 3 parts: (1) elastic recoil, (2) rapid length c

Background Smoking is known to cause chronic inflammatory changes in the bronchi and to contribute to airway hyper-reactivity, such as in bronchial asthma. To study the effect of smoking on the endothelin system in rat airways, bronchial segments were exposed to DMSO-soluble smoking particles (DSP) from cigarette smoke, to nicotine and to DMSO, respectively. Methods Isolated rat bronchial segment
Aggregates of proteoglycans from the Swarm rat chondrosarcoma reassembled in vitro have been studied by rotary-shadowing electron microscopy, and shown to be similar to native structures that have never been dissociated [Morgelin, Engel, Heinegard and Paulsson (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 14275-14284]. A hyaluronate with defined chain length (HAshort) has now been prepared by autoclaving high-Mr hya
The relationship between defensive strategies as measured by the Meta-Contrast Technique (MCT) and self-reported trait anxiety, trait aggression and defensiveness, as measured by the Karolinska Scales of Personality (KSP), was investigated in 83 healthy men. Further aims of the study were to describe and document how a healthy and demographically well defined group of subjects responded to the MCT
The deep structure of the gabbro-anorthosite-rapakivi granite ("AMCG-type") Korosten Pluton (KP) in the northwestern Ukrainian Shield was studied by 3-D modelling of the gravity and magnetic fields together with previous seismic data. The KP occupies an area of ca. 12,500 km(2) and comprises several layered gabbro-anorthositic intrusions enveloped by large volumes of rapakivi-type granitoids. Betw
Sampling methodology (e.g. population-based vs. clinical samples, anonymous self-reports vs. data collected as part of mandated treatment) affects the validity of conclusions drawn from research addressing the etiology of adolescent sexual offending. Studies of unselected samples allow testing of the generalizability of etiological models suggested from investigation of selected clinical or forens
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens syfte är att beskriva, analysera och jämföra rekontextualiseringen av socialpedagogik i tre olika curriculum; I Nijmegen (Nederländerna), Lillehammer (Norge) och Sligo (Irland). Rekontextualisering, ett begrepp hämtat från Basil Bernstein, syftar på den transformation som sker när socialpedagogik flyttas in i ett undervisningssammanhang. Materialet bestårThe purpose of this thesis is to describe, analyse, and compare the recontextualisation of social pedagogy in three different curricula; in Nijmegen (NL), Lillehammer (N), and Sligo (IRL). The curricula represent different academic orientations and are located in different social-political contexts. The recontextualisation of social pedagogy, the concept derived from the works of Basil Bernstein,
The bismuth-stabilized (2 x 4)-reconstructed InP(100) surface [Bi/InP(100)(2 x 4)] has been studied by synchrotron-radiation core-level photoelectron spectroscopy. The spectra are compared with previous core-level data obtained on a clean InP(100)(2 x 4) surface. The findings support that the P 2p surface-core-level shift (SCLS) of the clean InP(100)(2 x 4), which has higher kinetic energy than th
In this study, a tetracycline-regulated lentiviral vector system, based on the tetracycline-dependent transactivator rtTA2S-M2, was developed for controlled expression of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in the rat brain. Expression of the marker gene green fluorescent protein (GFP) and GDNF was tightly regulated in a dose-dependent manner in neural cell lines in vitro. Injection
