This chapter illustrates how quantum chemical calculations can be used to elucidate structural and functional aspects of tetrapyrrole cofactors, focusing on porphyrins, cobalamins, coenzyme F430, and chlorophyll. A particular emphasis is put on the biochemical significance of axial ligands, which can tune the function of the tetrapyrroles. With the use of quantum chemical calculations, it is possi
We demonstrate that the detected emission intensity from YOYO-labeled DNA molecules confined in 180 nm deep Si/SiO2 nanofunnels changes significantly and not monotonically with the width of the funnel, an emission enhancement that is only detected for emitted light polarized parallel to the channel. We explain the enhancement effect as being due to optical phenomena in the channels. The enhancemen
Agriculture is vulnerable to the interannual climate variability and to its unpredictability, in such a way that most agricultural decisions taken within the time horizon of several months are made in a conservative manner, supposing a near-pessimist scenario. The improvement of climate prediction may help the strategic view, mitigating unwanted impacts and taking advantage of favorable conditions
Med hjälp av ett automatiserat mätsystem för partikelhalter i vatten har vattenkvaliteten vid Borensbergs vattenverk i Motala kommun undersökts under ett års tid med avseende på mikroskopiska partiklar i dricksvatten och råvatten. Antalet mikroskopiska partiklar registrerades som absoluta värden i realtid. I denna artikel diskuteras hur larmgränser skall definieras i praktiken för partikelhalter oDuring a one year long research project at Borensberg Waterworks, Motala, Sweden, water quality with respect to microscopic particle counts both in raw water and drinking water have been monitored by an online water quality monitoring system. Microscopic particle counts were documented with absolute values in real-time. In this paper, a discussion is introduced on how to analyze large data sets fr
I skönlitterär prosa förekommer det strängt taget enbart tre olika temporala texttyper: narration (berättande text, relation), citat (alltså dialog) och berättarens nutid (dvs. passager där en berättare talar i egen sak), och det finns bara två finita tempus att välja emellan: presens och preteritum. Det kan tyckas som om de skönlitterära författarna har ett snävt spelrum att operera inom. Men det
In this work, physical and chemical characterization of El- Lajjoun retort water from oil shale pyrolysis process has been carried out. Comparison of different treatment methods for the major components which could affect the design and operation of any set of wastewater treatment process were conducted. The removal of phenol and ammonia using activated carbon after 12 hour resident time were 93 a
We conducted a first pilot study on healthy women living in two countries with different dietary habits, Granada in the south of Spain and Malmo in the south of Sweden, in order to compare their levels of plasma phospholipid fatty acids, and to examine the relationship between the differences in food consumption. This study is part of a pilot study which is nested in the European Prospective Inves
Popular Abstract in Swedish Tre-dimensionell ultraljudsundersökning av livmodertappen (cervix) Syftet med avhandlingen var att utvärdera förändringar i livmodertappen (cervix) med tre-dimensionellt ultraljud och utreda om tre-dimensionellt power Doppler ultraljud kan förutsäga tiden till spontan eller inducerad förlossning hos överburna, gravida kvinnor. Avhandlingen baseras på fem studier: reprThe aim of this thesis was to evaluate cervical physiological changes by three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound during pregnancy and to investigate the ability of 3D power Doppler to predict time to spontaneous and induced delivery in prolonged pregnancy. The thesis is based on five studies: reproducibility of cervical measurements by 3D power Doppler ultrasound (study I), reference data representativ
In this grounded theory study, the authors analyze interviews and participant observation data related to palliative cancer nursing in hospitals. Striving for Emotional Survival emerged as the pattern of behavior through which nurses deal with their main concern, the risk of being emotionally overloaded by their work. It involved three main strategies: Emotional Shielding through Professional Shie
Abstract in Danish I de industrialiserede lande har 7-10% af den voksne befolkning astma, og tallet har de seneste årtier været stigende [1]. Lægediagnosticeret astma i Danmark er øget fra 4 til 7-10%, og allergisk rinitis eller kronisk ikkeallergisk rinitis er øget fra 10% til 20-25% over en 20-årig periode [2]. Astma er den hyppigste kroniske sygdom hos unge og unge voksne, og en høj forekomst a
Designs for Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs) are quite well advanced,but the requirements of instruments have had limited impact. Sinceprovision of a suitable environment for instruments is a critical aspectof all telescopes, we outline some well-known and some less-appreciatedchallenges of designing instruments for ELTs. A wide-field spectrometer(WFSPEC) with ~10 arcmin field-of-view, probably w
