Measurements of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in serum are widely used to monitor patients with prostate cancer, but the attenuation of the assay response by PSA complexed to protease inhibitors has been shown to affect the results in certain assay designs. Moreover, the human glandular kallikrein-2 (hK2), a kallikrein-like serine protease that is 80% similar to PSA, might interfere with the spe
Popular Abstract in Swedish Övergödningen av Östersjön är fortfarande ett problem. Förhöjda krav på kvävereduktion för de svenska avloppsreningsverken är därför att vänta. Detta innebär i sig ökad energi- och kemikalieförbrukning, vilket rimmar illa med ord som energieffektivisering och resurssnålhet. Biologisk kväverening av en specifik delström på reningsverket har dock potential att minska ytbeEnhanced biological nitrogen removal at municipal wastewater treatment plants is a common procedure to prevent eutrophication in water bodies. Increased load, stricter effluent regulations, and demands for reduced resource and energy consumption present new challenges for the wastewater treatment plants. One option when upgrading a wastewater treatment plant is to treat the sludge liquor produced
This paper presents an ongoing work concerning the development of a theoretical framework for design. The framework is intended to be applied to the development of information systems for architectural design. The paper combines ontological and epistemological perspectives using Bunge’s work as a starting point, supplemented with Schön’s studies of the general nature of design, and with examples o
Official policies, academic discussions and public debates frequently address the potential risks and dangers of the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) among children and youth. At the same time, however, digital policies in education create themselves new vulnerabilities for school children and youth that often go unnoticed as they occur within politically desired frameworks.
In many European universities, English is today used as a medium of instruction. One of the reasons is that it is believed that using English as a medium of instruction (EMI) can develop students’ subject-specific knowledge of English. This knowledge is seen as an asset in the workplace and often presented as providing a competitive advantage supporting professional success. The design of many edu
