Corporate Brand Identity Matrix
The lack of a widely agreed framework to help define and align corporate brand identity constitutes a serious managerial problem and a shortcoming of the academic literature. In response, this article provides such a framework, the Corporate Brand Identity Matrix (CBIM), which draws upon the relevant literature, enriched by hands-on corporate experience gained by its application in three internati
Nonradioactive northern blot analysis to detect ebola virus minigenomic mRNA
In this chapter, we describe the detection of Ebola virus minigenomic mRNA using a nonradioactive Northern hybridization. This protocol comprises all steps beginning with the synthesis of a digoxigenin-labeled riboprobe, harvest of transcribed mRNA from cells transfected with the Ebola virus minigenome system, separation of mRNA species by denaturing RNA gel electrophoresis, transfer of the mRNA t
Late Ordovician deep-water brachiopod fauna from Raheen, Waterford harbour, Ireland
The Raheen Formation at Newtown Head in Waterford Harbour is a small isolated section of Ordovician rocks, dominated by volcanics of the Duncannon Group, but with interbedded fossiliferous shales. Although a brachiopod and trilobite dominated fauna has been known since the mid-nineteenth century, only the trilobites and cystoids have been assessed in modern terms. This paper describes the brachiop
Brand orientation : Past, Present, and Future
The articles in this special issue contribute to the advances and development in the scholarship of brand orientation. They encompass a wide range of sub-topics, and collectively offer a unique insight into the still-emerging concept and new paradigm of brand orientation. In the process, they show how researchers across the world are contributing to the advancement of theory and practice. Our open
Grainyhead-like 2 in development and cancer
Grainyhead-like 2 is a human homolog of Drosophila grainyhead. It inhibits epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition that is necessary for cell migration, and it is involved in neural tube closure, epithelial morphogenesis, and barrier formation during embryogenesis by regulation of the expression of cell junction proteins such as E-cadherin and vimentin. Cancer shares many common characters with devel
Varumärket : en hotad tillgång
On the role and function of brands. The first book on strategic brand management published in Swedish, and one of the first internationally. Brand management and trademark management is discussed. The notion of the brand is discussed and the the corporate brand and its role in modern business and society is introduced.

DNA barcoding of fish larvae reveals uncharacterised biodiversity in tropical peat swamps of New Guinea, Indonesia
The Indonesian archipelago, Borneo, Sumatra and West New Guinea (Papua), hosts half of the world's known tropical peat swamps, which support a significant proportion of the estimated biodiversity on Earth. However, several species groups that inhabit peat swamp environments remain poorly characterised and their biology, particularly during early life stages, is not well understood. In the present

The late-Holocene decline of Tilia in relation to climate and human activities - pollen evidence from 42 sites in southern Sweden
Aim: The dominant role of Tilia in primeval forests of Scandinavia has long been recognized, but the timing and mechanisms for its decline have not been completely unravelled. A particular uncertainty involves the balance between climate and human activities as the drivers of the change. One reason for the uncertainty is the challenge in evaluating the past cover of the genus owing to its poorly d
Monarchical Perspectives on Corporate Brand Management
We report the insights gained from a major international landmark study into Monarchies as Corporate Brands. We were granted privileged and unprecedented access to Their Majesties the King and Queen of Sweden, to members of the Royal Family and to Senior Officials of the Royal Household of Sweden. Our study, drawing on field research and drawing on the extensive literature on monarchy, resulted in
Three in One : Temperature, Solvent and Catalytic Stability by Engineering the Cofactor-Binding Element of Amine Transaminase
Amine transaminase (ATA) catalyse enantioselectively the direct amination of ketones, but insufficient stability during catalysis limits their industrial applicability. Recently, we revealed that ATAs suffer from substrate-induced inactivation mechanism involving dissociation of the enzyme-cofactor intermediate. Here, we report on engineering the cofactor-ring-binding element, which also shapes th
Draft genome sequence of the mycoparasitic oomycete Pythium oligandrum strain CBS 530.74
The oomycete Pythium oligandrum is a mycoparasite and licenced biological control agent. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of P. oligandrum strain CBS 530.74, which is 36.80 Mb. It contains 341 scaffolds and 11,647 predicted protein-coding genes. As reported for plant-pathogenic Pythium species, RXLR-type effector sequences are absent.
Elimination of resistive losses in large-area LEDs by new diffusion-driven devices
High-power operation of conventional GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is severely limited by current crowding, which increases the bias voltage of the LED, concentrates light emission close to the p-type contact edge, and aggravates the efficiency droop. Fabricating LEDs on thick n-GaN substrates alleviates current crowding but requires the use of expensive bulk GaN substrates and fairly lar
Intracavity double diode structures with GaInP barrier layers for thermophotonic cooling
Optical cooling of semiconductors has recently been demonstrated both for optically pumped CdS nanobelts and for electrically injected GaInAsSb LEDs at very low powers. To enable cooling at larger power and to understand and overcome the main obstacles in optical cooling of conventional semiconductor structures, we study thermophotonic (TPX) heat transport in cavity coupled light emitters. Our str
International Survey of the Costs of Assessment for Environmental Product Declarations
Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are used to communicate product's environmental performances to relevant stakeholders, whereas Product Category Rules (PCRs) provide guidelines for making EPDs in different product categories. Little is known regarding the cost for developing EPDs and PCRs. We therefore conducted an international survey, and 15 responses from EPD certification operators we
Diagnostics of femoral head status in humans using high-resolution laser spectroscopy : In vitro studies
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is caused by inadequate blood supply to the affected bone. The bone decay process due to lacking blood supply would be likely to be accompanied by the formation of gas-filled pores. We have introduced diode laser absorption spectroscopy to successfully detect water vapor signals from pores in the femoral heads retrieved from hip replacement operations in 19 patien
