Ingrid Wernstedt Asterholm tog emot Leif C. Groop-priset för framstående diabetesforskning i samband med LUDC Diabetes Research Day. – Priset gör att jag, åtminstone för en liten stund, kan vila i känslan av att allt det arbete jag lagt ner ändå är gott nog, säger pristagaren. Ingrid Wernstedt Asterholm vid Sahlgrenska akademin vid Göteborgs universitet är årets mottagare av Leif C. Groop-priset.

This work presents the first data from a calculation engine for synchrotron Microbeam Radiation Therapy (MRT) implemented in the EclipseTM Treatment Planning System from Varian Medical Services. The calculation engine constitutes a simple pencil beam algorithm estimating ‘peak’ dose and of Monte Carlo simulated Peak Valley Dose Ratios (PVDRs) that are used to obtain ‘valley’ dose. The aim of this

Active site titration and activity measurements were performed in hexane on lyophilised lipase preparations containing different amounts of phosphate buffer and lipase immobilised on porous polypropylene. Lyophilisation of Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase with large quantities of phosphate salts (200 mm) increased the specific activity fourfold, and the number of rapidly titratable active sites incr

Three well-known dynamic acidification models (MAGIC, SAFE, SMART) were applied to data sets from five Integrated Monitoring sites in Europe. The calibrated models were used in a policy-oriented framework to predict the long-term soil acidification of these background forest sites, given different scenarios of future deposition of S and N. Emphasis was put on deriving realistic site-specific scena

The Water hyacinth is one of the worst aquatic weeds in the world and it is today present on all continents except Antarctica. It causes big problems for both people and the aquatic ecosystems in many countries. A lot of research has been completed to find methods to eradicate the weed and a lot of money has been spent on management to keep waters clean. In this literature study on management meth

The performance of three different backpack-mounted γ-radiation survey systems has been investigated. The systems are based on a LaBr3:Ce detector and a NaI(Tl) detector both with active volume dimensions of 76.2 mm in diameter and 76.2 mm length and a 123% relative efficiency HPGe detector. The detection limits of the systems were tested in a controlled outdoor environment in Sweden, followed by

15 CREDITS | AUTUMN TERM Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be understood as systems which show intelligent behaviour by analysing their environment and with some degree of autonomy act to reach certain goals. In colloquial language, AI has become an umbrella term for information technology, robotics, and digitalisation more broadly, including machine learning techniques enabling computers to improv

Particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) is an enzyme that converts methane into methanol at ambient temperature and pressure. Over the past three decades, the metal content and location of the active site have been highly controversial. Recent single-particle cryogenic electron-microscopy (cryo-EM) structures have furthered this debate. In this study, three cryo-EM structures (PDB entries 7s4h, 7

Background: Acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) is a life-threatening disease where early diagnosis is critical to avoid morbidity and mortality from extensive irreversible bowel necrosis. Appropriate prediction of presence of bowel necrosis is currently not available but would help to choose the optimal method of treatment. The study aims to identify combinations of biomarkers that can reliably iden

In this study, we simulated heterotrophic CO2 (Rh) fluxes at six European peatland sites using the ECOSSE model and compared them to estimates of Rh made from eddy covariance (EC) measurements. The sites are spread over four countries with different climates, vegetation and management. Annual Rh from the different sites ranged from 110 to 540 g C m(-2). The maximum annual Rh occurred when the wate

The diversity and community composition of moths (both macro- and micromoths) at 32 sites, representing a wide range of habitat types (forests, grasslands, wetlands, agricultural and urban areas) within a restricted region in central Scania,southern-most Sweden, was investigated by use of light moth traps and compared with vascular plant species richness and habitat characteristics. The results re

Brine disposal remains one of the most significant environmental challenges associated with desalination, driving the need for sustainable technologies such zero liquid discharge (ZLD) systems. Among emerging ZLD techniques, membrane distillation crystallization (MDCr) offers a promising approach by integrating water recovery with salt crystallization. In MDCr, a hydrophobic membrane separates wat

I en ny avhandling från Lunds universitet prövas motmedel i form av antikroppar och ny molekyl som kallas MCT1-hämmare. I avhandlingen provades tre olika antikroppar, var för sig eller i kombination, som behandling vid  öcellstransplantation på möss. D
