The aim of this study was to investigate which preventive measures targeting mastitis are implemented in Swedish dairy herds with different housing and milking systems. Data were collected through a self-administered postal questionnaire sent to 898 dairy farmers, stratified by housing and milking system, in May 2011. The questionnaire contained general questions about the herd and the person resp
The chemosensory gene families of insects encode proteins that are crucial for hostlocation, mate finding, oviposition, and avoidance behaviors. The insect peripheralchemosensory system comprises odorant receptors (ORs), gustatory receptors (GRs),ionotropic receptors (IRs), odorant binding proteins (OBPs), chemosensory proteins(CSPs), and sensory neuron membrane proteins (SNMPs). These protein fam
Due to the overpopulation in the main cities and shortage of water in Egypt, finding new possible reclamation areas becomes an urgent necessity. The area northwest of El Sadat city can be considered one of the most promising new reclamation areas. This study focuses on detecting the groundwater aquifers, delineating the best localities to drill groundwater boreholes, and evaluation of the groundwa
We discovered structurally novel human calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) allosteric agonists and compared their pharmacology to phenylalkylamine calcimimetics. 1-Benzothiazol-2-yl-1-(2,4-dimethyl-phenyl)-ethanol (AC-265347) activated CaSR signaling in cellular proliferation and phosphatidylinositol (PI) hydrolysis assays with potencies of 30 and 10 nM, respectively.

Inom kärnkraftsindustrin är säkerhet den aspekt som prioriteras högst. Alla kärnkraftverk är designade för att i högsta möjliga mån förhindra läckage av radioaktivetet till omgivningen, både under drift och i händelse av en allvarlig olycka. Med anledning av detta är reaktorinneslutningens vägg en av de viktigaste säkerhetsrelaterade konstruktionerna vid en anläggning, detta då denna konstruktionsSafety is the top priority at a nuclear facility. The nuclear power plants are designed to prevent radioactive leakage to the surroundings, both during normal operation as well as in case of a severe accident. One of the most important structures in a nuclear power plant, with regard to safety, is thus the reactor containment wall. The containment wall is the last main barrier to prevent radioacti
This paper combines epidemiological data on musculoskeletal morbidity in 40 female and 15 male occupational groups (questionnaire data 3720 females, 1241 males, physical examination data 1762 females, 915 males) in order to calculate risk for neck and upper limb disorders in repetitive/constrained vs. varied/mobile work and further to compare prevalence among office, industrial and non-office/non-
Att fånga upp koldioxid från industriella utsläpp eller direkt från atmosfären och omvandla det till mer värdefulla föreningar, kallat "carbon capture and utilization", är en intressant metod för motverkandet av den globala uppvärmningen. Med en katalysator kan koldioxid och vätgas användas för att tillverka metanol som är användbart som bränsle och i kemikalieindustin. En nyligen upptäcNickel gallium alloys have recently been discovered as a promising material for the catalyzation of methanol synthesis from carbon dioxide. Due to the novel nature of the material system for this purpose, there is a large potential for optimization in terms of catalytic activity and selectivity for methanol. Optimization through engineering of phases and facets in such materials is often difficult
The bamboo species Guadua angustifolia is a natural functionally graded material with a high potential to help solving the housing deficit in Latin American countries. Bamboo plantations also play an important role to help reducing the devastation of tropical forests. Many studies have demonstrated the excellent mechanical properties of bamboo along the length of the culm. However, other propertie
Attention Restoration Theory point to nature as a particularly good candidate for restoring the ability to focus and inhibit distractions. However, little effort has been directed to elaborating on what makes nature's visual pattern unique for restoration purposes. One suggested explanation is the fractal properties of natural patterns (Hagerhall, 2005). Both perception studies (Hagerhall et al.,
Popular Abstract in Swedish Snabba fenomen, som inträffar efter laserexcitation, har studerats med tidsupplöst röntgendiffraktion (TXRD). I de flesta experimenten har en ljuspuls från en femtosekundlaser använts för att excitera provet, och dynamiken har undersökts med röntgenljus. Tidsupplösta röntgendiffraktionsmätningar har utförts för att studera fasta halvledarmaterial, vätskor, ferro-elektriFast phenomena occurring after laser excitation were studied using time-resolved X-ray diffraction (TXRD). In most experiments, a femtosecond laser pulse was used to excite the sample, and X-rays were used as a probe. The X-ray diffraction technique was used to study bulk semiconductor samples, molten liquids, ferro-electric domain switching in potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP), and strain prop
Baryon-to-meson Transition Distribution Amplitudes (TDAs) encoding valuable new information on hadron structure appear as building blocks in the collinear factorized description for several types of hard exclusive reactions. In this paper, we address the possibility of accessing nucleon-to-pion (pi N) TDAs from (p) over barp -> e(+)e(-)pi(0) reaction with the future PANDA detector at the FAIR faci
Biomass derived gases produced via gasification, pyrolysis, and fermentation are carbon neutral alternative fuels that can be used in gas turbines, furnaces, and piston engines. To make use of these environmentally friendly but energy density low fuels the combustion characteristics of these fuels have to be fully understood. In this study the structure and laminar burning velocity of biomass deri
It has been generally accepted that residual cartilage and subchondral bone has to be removed in order to get bony fusion in arthrodeses. In 1998 we reported successful fusion of 11 rheumatoid ankles, all treated with percutaneous fixation only. In at least one of these ankle joints there was cartilage left. More than 25 rheumatoid patients with functional alignment in the ankle joint have subsequ
Based on spectra from F and G dwarf stars, we present elementalabundance trends in the Galactic thin and thick disks in the metallicityregime -0.8< [Fe/H < +0.4. Our findings can besummarized as follows. 1) Both the thin and the thick disks show smoothand distinct abundance trends that, at sub-solar metallicities, areclearly separated. 2) For the alpha -elements the thick disk showssignatures of c
We analyzed seasonal influenza vaccination coverage among the Italian healthcare workers (HCW) in order to identify socio-demographic and clinical determinants of vaccination. We used data from the survey "Health and health care use in Italy," which comprised interviews of 5,336 HCWs For each respondent, information on socioeconomic, health conditions, self-perceived health and smoking status were
Background: Pancreatic cancer is a devastating disease with a dismal prognosis. Despite profound medical advances in systemic therapies for other types of aggressive tumours during recent years, a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is still often synonymous with a fatal outcome. The term periampullary cancer includes pancreatic cancer and applies to the group of tumours found in proximity to the ampul
Increasing demand for metals might lead to extraction of metals from materials, previously, thought of as waste. A letter by the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and Geological Survey of Sweden from 2017 encouraged new and innovative waste treatments as well as recycling of waste produced in association with mining. The conventional treatment of acid mine wastewater creates large volumes of
System in Package (SiP) is often used in wireless technologies where different active and passive components can be integrated under the same substrate, resulting in smaller devices and lower costs. The design of the embedded antennas in system in package is a challenge from various points of view. Since system in packages are often used when a small module is needed, and as the size of the module
