Tillvaron på ett särskilt ungdomshem är speciell på många vis samtidigt som institutionsvardagen i stor grad speglar samhället i övrigt. Eftersom ungdomar och personal kommer nära inpå varandra under längre tid kan frågor om identitet och tillhörighet få extra stor betydelse i det sociala samspelet.I boken undersöks hur etnicitet visas upp, debatteras, skojas om eller används som ett retoriskt ver
BACKGROUND: The increasing prevalence of antiretroviral drug resistance in Sub-Saharan Africa threatens the success of HIV programs. We have characterized patterns of drug resistance mutations (DRMs) during the initial year of antiretroviral treatment (ART) in HIV-positive adults receiving care at Ethiopian health centers and investigated the impact of tuberculosis on DRM acquisition.METHODS: Part
Questions related to crime and migration are delicate matters, potentially because of associations with ethnicity, racism and oppressive politics and ideology in both the past and the present. The delicate nature of issues of crime and deviance may result in expressive caution exercised by both researchers and those studied. In this article, we discuss these dynamics in the research process in ter
Seaweed is a promising sustainable source of vegan protein as its farming does not require arable land, pesticides/insecticides, nor freshwater supply. However, to be explored as a novel protein source the content and nutritional quality of protein in seaweed need to be improved. We assessed the influence of pH-shift processing on protein degree of hydrolysis (%DH), protein/peptide size distributi
We have developed a LCMS metabolomic workflow to investigate metabolic patterns from human intestinal cells treated with simulated gastrointestinal-digested hydrolyzed crab waste materials. This workflow facilitates smart and reproducible comparisons of cell cultures exposed to different treatments. In this case the variable was the hydrolysis methods, also accounting for the GI digestion giving a
Protocatechuic acid (PCA) is a strong antioxidant and is also a potential platform for polymer building blocks like vanillic acid, vanillin, muconic acid, and adipic acid. This report presents a study on PCA production from glucose via the shikimate pathway precursor 3-dehydroshikimate by heterologous expression of a gene encoding 3-dehydroshikimate dehydratase in Escherichia coli. The phenylalani
Propionic acid (PA) production from agro-industrial residues using propionibacteria has gained interest as an alternative to fossil-based process. Microbial production is however characterized by product inhibition, lowering the product titers and productivity. In this study, Propionibacterium acidipropionici DSMZ4900 was subjected to adaptive evolution to tolerate higher acid concentrations. The
This study demonstrates the use of a photoelectrochemical device comprising earth-abundant hematite photoanode for the oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), a versatile bio-based platform chemical, under ambient conditions in the presence of an electron mediator. The results obtained in this study showed that the hematite photoanode, upon doping with fluorine, can oxidize water even at low
The Arctic has warmed more than twice the rate of the entire globe. To quantify possible climate change effects, we calculate wind energy potentials from a multi-model ensemble of Arctic-CORDEX. For this, we analyze future changes of wind power density (WPD) using an eleven-member multi-model ensemble. Impacts are estimated for two periods (2020–2049 and 2070–2099) of the 21st century under a high
Under mitt fältarbete kring graffiti var ”ska vi inte gå och ta en öl?” en återkommandeuppmaning bland deltagarna, även formulerad som ”gå ut och röka”, ”ta en promenad”, osv. Även om dessa förslag i sig knappast är unika för graffiti, visade sig deras betydelser och konsekvenser vara just det. I detta kapitel ska jag analysera hur dessa sociala uppmaningar användes som subkulturella eufemismer fö
Fluorescent probes based on photoinduced electron transfer (PET) quenching of long lifetime triangulenium fluorophores have found multiple applications. For such probes a successful design relies on the right balance between the rate of PET quenching and fluorescence. In a series of ADOTA (A) and DAOTA (D) triangulenium fluorophores appended with aniline-like quencher moieties, we have investigate
En teknik för att förhindra yterosion och samla ytavrinning är bygga jordvallar (1–1,5 m höga) parallellt medhöjdkurvorna. Denna teknik används över stora områden i Tunisien. I denna studie undersöks hur dessa jord-vallar påverkar ytjordens rumsliga variabilitet av markvattenhalt (θ) och salinitet, dels uttryckt som jordenstotala elektriska konduktivitet (σa) och dels som porvattnets elektriska koOne technique for collecting rainwater and prevent soil erosion applied on large areas in Tunisia involves theuse of soil ridges (1–1.5 m high). These contour ridges are constructed parallel to topographical isolines. Theeffects of the contour ridges on the soil water content (θ) distribution, bulk soil salinity σa, and soil water salin-ity (σw) were investigated in the catchment of El-Gouazine in
Background: Healing failure after rotator cuff repair is a challenging problem. Acute, trauma-related tears are considered a separate entity and are often treated surgically. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with healing failure in previously asymptomatic patients with trauma-related rotator cuff tears treated with early arthroscopic repair. Methods: This study included 62
This paper addresses the hybrid quantized signal detection problem in a distributed radar system, where widely separated antennas transmit low-bit quantized data with varying quantization levels depending on the different bandwidth constraint for each channel to a fusion center. To enable a high detection performance with such hybrid quantized data, we formulate the generalized likelihood ratio, R
Attosecond photoelectron spectroscopy has opened up for studying light–matter interaction on ultrafast time scales. It is often performed with interferometric experimental setups that require outstanding stability. We demonstrate and characterize in detail an actively stabilized, versatile, high spectral resolution attosecond beamline based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The active stabilizatio
We present a high-repetition rate, atttosecond light source, emitting controlled short trains of attosecond pulses. We apply this source to the study of photoionization of atoms using a 3D photoelectron/ion coincidence spectrometer.
