Edge-wear analysis in Archaeology. The current state of research

The analytical method by which macroscopic and above all microscopic traces of wear are studied, in order to reach conclusions about how flint tools were employed, has been applied with varying success in western archaeology since the 1960s. Two main approaches can be distinguished, where each approach examines somewhat different wear traces using different microscopic equipment. The scanning elec

Get the Cogs in Synch – Time Horizon Aspects of Industry–Academia Collaboration

In industry–academia collaboration projects, there are many issues related to different time horizons in industry and academia. If not adressed upfront, they may hinder collaboration in such projects. We analyze our experiences from a 10 year industry–academia collaboration program, the EASE Industrial Excellence Center in Sweden, and identify issues and feasible practices to overcome the hurdles

Measuring progress towards a ‘Green Energy Economy’: Who is really winning the race?

This paper provides the first regional econometric decomposition of CO2 emissions from fuel combustion in eight regions of the world. Using the best publically-available time series data (1971–2011), the analysis examines the key determinants and relationships of the ‘Green Energy Economy’ (GEE) in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East, Non-OECD Europe and countries from t

Team-based fault content estimation in the software inspection process

The main objective of software inspection is to detect faults within a software artifact. This helps to reduce the number of faults and to increase the quality of a software product. However, although inspections have been performed with great success, and although the quality of the product is increased, it is difficult to estimate the quality. During the inspection process, attempts with objecti

Staphylococcal induced inflammatory response in human monocytes: Analysis of factors involved

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den medicinska termen sepsis, "blodförgiftning" orsakas av bakterier i blodet. Symptombilden kan variera från tämligen lindriga förlopp till septisk shock, som har en hög dödlighet. Vid sepsis och septisk shock aktiveras olika kroppsegna system såsom koagulations- och komplementsystemet. Många mekanismer medieras av så kallade cytokiner. Dessa budbärarmolekyler byggs upPurified bacterial cell wall components peptidoglycan and teichoic acid were isolated from staphylococcal species S. aureus and/or S. epidermidis and tested for their ability to induce cytokine release from plastic-adherent human monocytes. Both cell wall components dose-dependently induced TNF-alpha, interleukin-1beta, and interleukin-6 release, peptidoglycan being more potent than teichoic acid.
