Today, innovation is a key word for many universities, as it constitutes an important part of most universities’ public and scientific outreach task. Many universities are striving to increase the number of innovations generated at the university. A common method is to provide various support for research projects e.g.; providing researchers with information about international patent rights (IPR)

OBJECTIVE: Maternal hemodynamics in pregnancy is associated with fetal growth and birth weight, which in turn is associated with offspring cardiovascular disease later in life. We therefore sought to quantify the extent to which birth weight is associated with cardiac structure and function in adolescence.METHODS: Participants (N=1,964, 55% females) from a UK birth cohort were examined with echoca

Den europeiska varumärkesrätten är under förändring och nyligen antog Europaparlamentet ett nytt varumärkesdirektiv och en ny varumärkesförordning. En av de frågor som har varit mest omdiskuterad inför förändringarna är huruvida det räcker med användning av ett varumärke i en medlemsstat för att det territoriella kriteriet som är kopplat till bedömningen av verkligt bruk ska anses uppfyllt i artikThe European trademark law is under revision and recently the European Parliament adopted a new Community Trademark Regulation and a new Trademark Directive. One of the most discussed issues concerning the new legislation is weather it is sufficient to use a trademark in one member state to fulfill the requirement of genuine use in Article 15.1 in the Community Trademark Regulation. Previously the

The purpose of the project is to recommend one common way of how to calculate a conversion factor that should be used to convert sales into the corresponding volume in cubic meter. The conversion factor is a forecasted average value per cubic meter of an IKEA product and could be seen as a model of the future. The authors of the thesis have no intensions to provide a perfect model that is an exact

Popular Abstract in Swedish Extracellulär matrix är namnet på det molekylära nätverk vilket finns mellan celler i flercelliga organismer. Det består av socker och proteiner organiserade i olika vävnadsspecifika nätverk. Två huvudformer finns, basalmembran och interstitiell extracellulär matrix. Basalmembran ligger som en tunn filt under epitel- och endotelceller, runt fettväv, muskler och periferaBasement membranes are sheet like structures underlying epithelial, endothelial, adipocytes, muscle and peripheral nerve cells. Laminins are an important family of basement membrane proteins implicated in various biological functions through their interactions with cell surface receptors. Laminins are trimers composed of a, b and g chains. Integrins, dystroglycan and other transmembrane glycoprote

The theme of this monograph of Informing Science is a dialectic we perceive to exist between meaningful use and reflection upon use. This dialectic between use and reflection on use (or thinking, and thinking about thinking) may be considered in the following way. Each of these elements is subject to change. As reflection triggers change in use, and such change triggers further reflection, a spira

In this paper an approach to extreme event control in wastewater treatment plant operation by use of automatic supervisory control is discussed. The framework presented is based on the fact that different operational conditions manifest themselves as clusters in a multivariate measurement space. These clusters are identified and linked to specific and corresponding events by use of principal compo

Microaggregate-poor erythrocyte concentrate with 3% dextran-60 as a plasma substitute was compared with microaggregate-poor whole blood for replacement of intra-operative and immediately postoperative blood loss. Sixty patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty randomly received either of these two forms of therapy. In accordance with the clinical routine of our orthopedic department, an infusion

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated exposure- and subject-related determinants of annoyance and performance during the chemical odor provocation of healthy persons with self-reported environmental annoyance. METHODS: Persons with self-reported annoyance attributed to (i) chemicals or smells (smell-annoyed, SA, N=29), (ii) electrical equipment (electrically annoyed, EA, N= 16), and (iii) both smell

Complexes trans-[PtRCl(SR‘2)2], where R = Ph, mesityl, and p-anisyl and R‘ = Me or Et, have been synthesized and their crystal and molecular structures determined. Crystals of trans-[PtPhCl(SEt2)2] (2) are triclinic (P1̄) with a = 10.112(6) Å, b = 13.158(2) Å, c = 14.714(5) Å, α = 102.48(2)°, β = 94.394(4)°, γ = 90.22(3)°, and Z = 4. Crystals of trans-[Pt(mesityl)Cl(SMe2)2] (4) are monoclinic (P21Complexes trans-[PtRCl(SR‘2)2], where R = Ph, mesityl, and p-anisyl and R‘ = Me or Et, have been synthesized and their crystal and molecular structures determined.

This master thesis explores some ideas about interaction design of mobile communication and mobile devices. In initial studies the definitions of mobility and communication are summarised as a foundation for deeper understanding of the interaction between the user and the technical devices. Also additional studies about future usage and human behaviour are presented. Based on additional user obser

Background: Despite substantial progress in the field of mass spectrometry, there remain barriers to measuring the extracellular vesicles (EVs) proteome in blood plasma. Recent work has shown that isolating EVs can make it possible to detect proteins that have low abundance in plasma. Commonly used EV isolation methods either require large sample volumes and long ultracentrifugation times, or else
