A novel method for the preparation of molecularly imprinted microspheres has been developed. Theophylline, caffeine, and 17β-estradiol are used as template molecules to demonstrate the generally applicable methodology. In the presence of a template molecule, cross-linking polymerization starting from a dilute solution of methacrylic acid and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate yields polymer micros

We investigate the adaption of the recently developed exponential integrators called EPIRK in the so-called domain-based implicit-explicit (IMEX) setting of spatially discretized PDE's. The EPIRK schemes were shown to be efficient for sufficiently stiff problems and offer high precision and good stability properties like A- and L-stability in theory. In practice, however, we can show that these st

This chapter focuses on the dominantly gendered house-help in India: the cooks, cleaners, and maids during the pandemic-triggered lockdowns in Delhi and its metropolitan areas. Even if we are scared to enter people's homes, we have to come out to work to sustain our lives. The case studies of these three women point to the precarity and 'unrepresentability' which turn the previously invisible figu

The lifetime of the 3s3p1P term in Mg-like S V has been determined by beam-foil spectroscopy in combination with detailed analyses of cascading processes by means of the ANDC technique. One of the most important cascade transitions was found to be seriously blended by a strong S VII transition. An earlier proposed method for appling the ANDC formalism to correct for blending has been tested for th

This thesis begins by briefly discussing translation in general, identifying some of the problems involved in the linguistic activity. Then it seeks to explain what is involved in translation relating to film and television, i.e. subtitling. Finally, a comparison will be made between the Spanish speech in the Mexican film, Como agua para chocolate - directed by Alfonso Arau in 1992 and based on hi

A rising problem within electronics today is that, since the frequencies have increased dramatically, it is now very difficult to measure signals. If a traditional probe is used, then the direct contact will destroy the signal. The general idea behind this master thesis project is to make use of the crosstalk between transmission lines to create non contact test points. This thesis aims to evaluat

The aim of this Master's thesis is to study what place public libraries have in local politics, particularly from the point of view of the politicians. To answer this, I have interviewed politicians, participated as a silent observer of a public debate, and studied articles on library politics in newspapers and other press. The results show that politicians in general have a positive view of l

A convenient mapping and an efficient algorithm for solving scheduling problems within the neural network paradigm is presented. It is based on a reduced encoding scheme and a mean field annealing prescription which was recently successfully applied to TSP.Most scheduling problems are characterized by a set of hard and soft constraints. The prime target of this work is the hard constraints. In thi

This study evaluate the emerging international rice market by looking at supply and demand, price formation and development, and the extensive protection provided for rice on both national, bilateral and multilateral levels. The findings of this study are that rice is seen as a political good in many Asian countries due to its big impact on economy, society and political stability. Rice production

Sweden is renowned for its centralised wage bargaining system, which has been studied from the point of view of inflation, wage differentials and unemployment. This article studies media coverage of wage bargaining rounds in the 1950s–1960s and in the 2000s–2010s to investigate the social understanding of what the wage bargaining institutions are supposed to do. The results indicate that the opera

The construction and demolition industry are annually responsible for 40% of the total amount of waste generated in Sweden. The problem facing the industry is that a very large portion of the waste is disposed of in landfills, and only a very small portion is recycled and reused. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the construction industry can become more circular and sustainable over

The Writer:
Sigrid Combüchen was born in Solingen in the German Ruhr territory 1942. Shortly after the War her family moved to Sweden. She is a Swedish writer and literary critic and has so far published seven novels, a collection of essays and a biography (on the Norwegian novelist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature 1920, Knut Hamsun). She received the 2004 Selma Lagerlöf Prize a

Problemformulering: Byggprocessen är idag långsam, kostsam och genererar stora mängder spill och utsläpp. För att kunna möta bostadsbehovet från den snabbt växande befolkningsmängden måste tekniken utvecklas, den måste bli snabbare och mer kostnadseffektiv. Med ny teknik där betongelement tillverkas genom automatiserad och datorstyrd 3D-printning kan eventuellt hela betongbyggnadsprocessen effektiQuestion formulation: The construction process today is slow, costly and generates large amounts of waste and emissions. In order to meet housing needs of the rapidly growing population in a sustainable way, the technology must evolve; it must be faster and more cost-effective. New technology, where concrete is manufactured by automated and computer-controlled 3D-printing, can possibly streamline

Bushfire problem is a long-lasting problem which is a big threat and environmental problem in Australia. Planning to control bushfire is very important for Australian Environment. One of the most effective methods to fight bushfire disasters is planning for controlled burns in order to reduce the risk of unwanted bushfire events. Controlled burns management and planning has been always considered

Abstract Thiosilvatins are a family of biologically active sulfenylated diketopiperazine natural products. The first members were reported over 40?years ago, but total synthesis of a thiosilvatin has remained elusive. Here, we describe the first, collective, synthesis of the parent epidithiodiketopiperazine (?)-dithiosilvatin and ten related thiosilvatins. Several of the targets are structurally rThiosilvatins are a family of biologically active sulfenylated diketopiperazine natural products.
