Adaptation of a xylose-utilizing genetically engineered strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to sugarcane bagasse hydrolysates by cultivation during 353 h using medium with increasing concentrations of inhibitors, including phenolic compounds, furaldehydes and aliphatic acids, led to improved performance with respect to ethanol production. The remaining xylose concentration in the medium at the end

Att gå i skolan är fullkomligt normalt. Förmodligen är det ett av skälen till att utbildningsforskningen sällan frågar vad det betyder att varje person i vårt samhälle tvingas tillbringa nio år i den obligatoriska skolan. Betydligt vanligare är det att fråga vad, hur och varför eleverna lär sig i skolan. Intresset för skoltidens innehåll är helt enkelt större än för skoltiden som sådan. Skoltidens

Undisplaced radial head and neck fractures are consistently described with no long-term deficits. The aim of this study was to evaluate specifically the long-term outcome of displaced Mason type I fractures, which have not previously described. Twenty women and twelve men, with a mean age of 46 years (range, 22-69 years) when they sustained a displaced Mason type I fracture, were reexamined at a m

Most companies and testing books use the term unit testing, but its semantics varies widely in different organizations. Lund University researchers launched a survey in 19 companies to explore variations in the term. The results indicate a common understanding of the scope of unit testing, although its aim and practices vary across companies. Practitioners can use the survey instruments as a basel

Popular Abstract in Swedish Studien presenterar en relationell ansats till förhandlingar, dvs en förhandlingsanalys i vilken relationerna mellan aktörerna står i centrum. Det innebär att istället för att se till enskilda förhandlares strategier etc, läggs tonvikten vid att förstå interaktionen mellan förhandlarna. Således har studier som söker slå fast nationella särdrag eller kulturellt betingadeThis study proposes the relational approach to negotiations to further our understanding of the negotiation relationship. At the center is negotiators' outlook on the other and themselves in East-West cooperation projects. This approach to negotiations is pluralist. Consequently, a number of theories have been utilized. First, using feminist theorizing in philosophy and International Relations, th

Although trisomy 8 as a sole change is one of the most common chromosomal abnormalities in myeloid malignancies, it is largely unknown if the incidence of this aberration is influenced by other factors of clinical importance. In the present study, the frequencies of isolated +8 in relation to gender, age, previous treatment with chemo- or radiotherapy, and morphologic subtype were ascertained in p

This publication discusses the length of time needed for concrete structures to dry out after construction in order that damage to adjoining constructions and finishes may be prevented. Recommended drying times, methods for moisture measurements, etc.

Telavancin is a novel bactericidal lipoglycopeptide with multiple mechanisms of action against gram-positive pathogens. The aim of this study was to describe the dynamics of the antimicrobial effect of telavancin against two strains of Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin susceptible and methicillin resistant) in an in vitro kinetic model with simulated human pharmacokinetics. Also, static experimen
