Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodkärlens glatta muskulatur kan anpassa sig till ett ökat tryck genom omstrukturering och hypertrofi, vilket ofta ses hos patienter med hypertoni. De molekylära mekanismerna som ger upphov till dessa effekter är inte fullständigt klarlagda. Vi har därför utvecklat en modell för att undersöka effekterna av tryck (sträckning av kärlväggen) på kärlpreparat från portaven Vascular smooth muscle can adapt to increased intraluminal pressure by remodelling and hypertrophy, as seen in hypertension. The molecular mechanisms responsible for this are still incompletely characterized. We have developed an organ culture system where strips of rat or mouse portal veins are cultured for 1 to 3 days loaded (stretched) by an attached weight and then studied for morphology, func

This paper presents an unbalanced overview of existing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) research by reassessing the body of knowledge and emphasising future research directions that need to be pursued in an attempt to fill knowledge gaps and bridge the existing gap between practitioners and academia. To fulfil this objective, nine leading international IS publications covering the period of 2006

This Ph.D. Thesis concerns the study of mixing in Rushton turbine agitated reactors. In industrial (bio)reactors, mixing is recognised as a limiting factor that significantly affects the performance of the process. This limitation has motivated the present study. It is first shown how planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) can be used to investigate mixing in a model reactor. The principles of

Experimental studies have revealed that both downstream and upstream pointing V-shaped ribs result in better heat transfer enhancement than transverse straight ribs of the same geometry. Secondary flows induced by the angled ribs are believed to be responsible for this higher heat transfer enhancement. Further investigations are needed to understand this. In the present study, the heat and fluid f

My talk is intended to stimulate discussions about methods in radiativetransfer for hydrodynamical model atmospheres of late-type stars. I willpresent a number a number of inherent problems, show how they arepresently tackled (if so), and ask for ideas for more efficient approaches.

Spatial diversity is a popular multiple antenna system technique, due to simplicity in implementation. However, its application has thus far been limited to systems where the electrical separation between adjacent antennas typically exceeds half a wavelength. This is because a more compact design induces higher antenna correlation and impedance mismatch, which results in lower diversity gains. In

The thesis concerns glycosyl transfer with use of b-glycosidases, most of them from hyperthermophilic organisms. Both optimisation of the reaction conditions and protein engineering in terms of site-directed mutagenesis were used to improve b-glycosidase-catalysed reactions. The first part of the work deals with conversion of lactose into valuable products such as galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) an
