A selective pressurized liquid extraction (SPLE) procedure capable of performing simultaneous extraction and clean-up has been demonstrated for multi-residue analysis of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in soil. The final method was performed at 100 degrees C for 3 x 10 min using acetone/n-heptane (1:1, v/v). Florisil was placed inside the extraction cell downstream the sample to remove interferin

The development of inhibitory antibodies against coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) in patients with mild haemophilia A is uncommon. We describe here two families in which three or two members have developed inhibitors, suggesting a familial predisposition. The mutations found, in the A2 (Arg593Cys) and C1 domains (Tyr2105Cys), have been reported to give rise to inhibitor development in single indivi

Measurements are presented of inclusive charm and beauty cross sections in e(+)p collisions at HERA for values of photon virtuality 12 <= Q(2) = 60 GeV2 and of the Bjorken scaling variable 0.0002 <= x <= 0.005. The fractions of events containing charm and beauty quarks are determined using a method based on the impact parameter, in the transverse plane, of tracks to the primary vertex, as measured

Resultat fran undersökningen visar att personrisker (inklusive dödsrisken) vid brand i ett småhus är tämligen oberoende av husets konstruktion. Trähus och stenhus kan därför klassificeras som likvardiga. Egendomsskador påverkas förutom av husets innehåll och beskaffenhet även av husets utformning och konstruktion. En brännbar konstruktion, speciellt vindsbjälklag- och yttertakkonstruktion innebär

We report an observation of substantial deviations in the photoelectron angular distribution for photoionization of atoms in free Xe clusters compared to the case of photoionization of free atoms. The cross section, however, seems not to vary between the cluster and free atoms. This observation was made in the vicinity of the Xe 4d Cooper minimum, where the atomic angular distribution is known to

There is a need for tools that in a simple way can be used for the evaluation of image quality related to clinical requirements in mammography. The aim of this work was to adjust the present European image quality criteria to be relevant also for digital mammography images, and to use as simple and as few criteria as possible. A pilot evaluation of the new set of criteria was made with mammograms

Relativistic energy projectile fragmentation of Pb-208 has been used to produce a range of exotic nuclei. The nuclei of interest were studied by detecting delayed gamma rays following the decay of isomeric states. Experimental information on the excited states of the neutron-rich N = 126 nucleus, Pt-204, following internal decay of two isomeric states, was obtained for the first time. In addition,

Objective. To analyse the management and outcome of patients with Ta T1 urinary bladder cancer in a population-based national database. Material and methods. Between 1997 and 2001, 94% of all newly diagnosed cases of urinary bladder cancer were registered in the Swedish National Bladder Cancer Register. Data were analysed regarding gender, healthcare region, stage and grade for patients with Ta T1

We report the near-field imaging characterization of a 10 Hz Ni-like 18.9 nm molybdenum soft-x-ray laser pumped in a grazing incidence pumping (GRIP) geometry with a table-top laser driver. We investigate the effect of varying the GRIP angle on the spatial behavior of the soft-x-ray laser source. After multiparameter optimization, we were able to find conditions to generate routinely a high-repeti

We present oxygen abundances for 72 F and G dwarf stars in the solarneighbourhood. Using the kinematics of the stars we divide them into twosub-samples with space velocities that are typical for the thick andthin disks, respectively. The metallicities of the stars range from[Fe/H] ≈ -0.9 to +0.4 and we use the derived oxygen abundances of thestars to: (1) perform a differential study of the oxygen

During 1984-1985, 410 patients with cervical hip fracture were randomized between 2 methods of internal fixation--a single nail (Rydell) or 2 LIH hook pins (LIH). The patients were followed-up prospectively for at least 2 years. Radiographs were taken after 1 week, 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months. The radiographs of the 295 patients alive 2 years postoperatively were examined by one of the authors. The

We investigate in some detail a recently suggested general class of ensembles of sparse undirected random graphs based on a hidden stub coloring, with or without the restriction to nondegenerate graphs. The calculability of local and global structural properties of graphs from the resulting ensembles is demonstrated. Cluster size statistics are derived with generating function techniques, yielding

Three event-related potential (ERP) experiments examined whether semantic content can be accessed From visually presented words that cannot he consciously identified. Category labels were shown to participants, followed by masked, briefly exposed words that were either exemplars of the category or not exemplars. The task was to verify the category, by guessing if necessary, and to identify the wor

The purpose of this study was to define the bone metabolic properties during the postfracture period in elderly women with hip fracture. Osteocalcin (Oc), a marker of bone formation, was measured in 58 women with hip fracture (77 +/- 7 years) admitted to the hospital from their own homes. Serum samples were taken on average 5 h (range 1-21) from fracture and at follow-up, on average 4.6 months lat
