Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) or the more value neutral term, Female Genital Cutting (FGC) is widely practised in northern Sudan, where around 90% of women undergo the most extensive form of FGC, infibulation. One new approach to combating FGC in Sudan is to acknowledge the previously hidden form of FGC, reinfibulation (RI) after delivery, when the woman is sewn back so much as to mimic virginit

We investigated whether local biotic and abiotic conditions could explain the occurrence of calling males of the declining spadefoot toad Pelobates fuscus in 72 ponds in southern Sweden. The ponds covered the entire distribution range of P. fuscus and were monitored during the breeding season in 2000. Calling males were found in 33 ponds. representing ca 50% of all known ponds for the species ill

Popular Abstract in Swedish Cellulosa är ett av de vanligast förekommande biologiska ämnena på jorden och en mycket viktig råvara. Cellulosa är en polymer, uppbyggd av glukosmolekyler som är bundna till varandra i kedjor. Kedjorna kan bli mycket långa och består ofta av flera tusen glukosmolekyler. Eftersom cellulosakedjor är lineära kan de packa sig parallellt med varandra och bilda styva fibrer Soluble derivatives of cellulose have become increasingly important in industrial products e.g. in pharmaceutical applications and in technical dispersions. The polymer characteristics of modified celluloses are to a high degree determined by the substituent distribution along the polymeric backbone. The distribution will be more or less heterogeneous both due to the fact that polymers from renewa

The rapid development of urban retail companies brings new opportunities to the Chinese economy. Due to the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of different cities, selecting a business location in a new area has become a challenge. The application of multi-source geospatial data makes it possible to describe human activities and urban functional zones at fine scale. We propose a knowledge transfer-based

Monosubstituted naphthoxylosides have been shown to function as substrates for, and inhibitors of, the enzyme β4GalT7, a key enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway leading to glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans. In this article, we explore the synthesis of 16 xyloside analogues, modified at two different positions, as well as their function as inhibitors of and/or substrates for the enzyme. Seemingly

The successful construction of any well-functioning structure is dependent on a good understanding of the ground on which it lies. Several methods and techniques have been developed to model subsurface conditions and properties with the purpose of gaining comprehensive knowledge of geological conditions. Seismic refraction presents a geophysical method of subsurface investigation capable of provid

Human complement component C4 was irreversibly inactivated by low concentrations of methylamine at slightly alkaline pH. The inactivated C4 molecules lost the ability to bind to EAC1 cells but retained th capacity to participate in the formation of classical pathway C3 convertase in the fluid phase. 14C-methylamine was incorporated into the alpha-chain at a ratio of 1 mol methylamine per mol C4.

6 oktober 2026 09:00 till 16:00 | Symposium Fourth annual symposium on regulation of AI from a European perspective Artificial intelligence is increasingly regulated through a growing and interconnected body of law. As the EU AI Act moves from adoption to implementation, attention is shifting from the text of the regulation itself to a broader and more complex question: how does the AI Act interac

I över 300 år har banbrytande forskning vid Lunds universitet lett till nya produkter, metoder eller tjänster – ofta i samarbete med näringslivet. Här har bland annat den första dialysmaskinen, ultraljudsdiagnostiken och Bluetooth-tekniken utvecklats. Genom ett välutvecklat innovationsstöd kan forskningsresultat göra konkret samhällsnytta – i form av läkemedel, material, tekniker och lösningar som

Vad är nationer och kårer för något? En förenklad förklaring är: kårerna jobbar med det studentpolitiska, nationerna det sociala och Akademiska föreningen med det kulturella i det som är studentstaden Lund. Alla organisationerna har många aktiviteter för dig att engagera dig i. En stor del av aktiviteterna hittar du genom medlemskapet i Studentlund. NationerNationernas främsta uppgift är den socia
