- what are they about? When do they take place and who facilitates them? Starting in October, participants in the Pufendorf Academy will meet at the Pufendorf Institute (not hybrid) roughly once a month to engage in workshops that have interdisciplinary research as a unifying common thread. Common to all the workshops is also that they will support the participants in solving actual problems that

Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation canopies and near the ground surface, where critical ecosystem functions occur and most terrestrial species reside. Here, we provide global maps of soil temperature and biocl

Increased wealth and per capita energy use have transformed lives and shaped societies, but energy poverty remains a global challenge. Previous research has shown positive relationships among metrics of health and happiness and economic indices such as income and gross domestic product and between energy use and human development. To our knowledge, however, no comprehensive assessment has examined

Abstract in UndeterminedIn the humanitarian context, gender mediates access to aid. The gender of the beneficiary is not only intrinsically linked with her/his disaster vulnerability (Enarson, 2002), but also to their ability to physically access aid distribution points (Lutz and Gady, 2004) and even to be considered a beneficiary in the first place. There is, however, yet another factor mitigatin

Proposal for a MERGE Short Project – Title 1 (2) INTRODUCTION Short projects are a way to stimulate ideas and work from MERGE members within the MERGE research framework and as such cross-research between the different research areas (RA) are encouraged. The focus is often derived from discussions and ideas that are raised during the annual meetings of MERGE blended with input from our external mo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett flertal produkter som framställs inom den kemiska och biotekniska industrin produceras i stora turbinomrörda tankar. Kvaliteten av produkten och utbytet av processen påverkas av blandningsförhållandena i dessa tankar. Blandningsförhållandena i processen påverkas av vätskans hastighet och dess intensitet. I olika regioner av reaktorn, impeller regionen och bulk regiTurbine-agitated tanks are used in chemical and biochemical applications to increase mixing which, in turn, affects the yield, productivity and product quality. The purpose of this work was to study the hydrodynamic influence on the scale-up of turbine-agitated tanks, commonly used in fermentation. Local turbulent flow parameters, the turbulent kinetic energy and the local energy dissipation rate,

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid tillagning av kött, och framför allt stekning och grillning, bildas mutagena ämnen i stekskorpan. Dessa ämnen benämns heterocykliska aminer. Flera epidemiologiska studier har visat ett samband mellan uppkomsten av cancer och intaget av heterocykliska aminer, medan några studier inte finner något samband. Ämnena har också visat kunna utveckla tumörer och cancer i djuCommonly cooked meat dishes contain heterocyclic amines (HAs) at ng/g levels. HAs are animal carcinogens, form DNA adducts in human tissues, and have been associated with increased risk of cancer in epidemiological studies, and it is thus recommended that human intake be decreased. The aim of this investigation was to find ways of modifying cooking practices to reduce the formation of HAs. Various

Background. Climate change is the greatest threat to human health in the 21st century and healthcare contributes to approximately 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Intensive and perioperative care are particularly resource intensive. This thesis aimed to assess the climate and environmental impacts of perioperative and intensive care (Papers I–III) and to explore how environmental outcomes an

Background: Epidemiological studies have shown that many welders experience respiratory symptoms. During the welding process a large number of airborne nanosized particles are generated, which might be inhaled and deposited in the respiratory tract. Knowledge of the underlying mechanisms behind observed symptoms is still partly lacking, although inflammation is suggested to play a central role. Th

A comparison was made between two plant peroxidases, cationic horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and anionic tobacco peroxidase (TOP), combined with a highly cationic osmium polymer [Os(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine)2poly(N-vinylimidazole)10Cl]+2/+ ([Os(dmp)PVI]+/2+) to develop highly sensitive, stable and selective hydrogen peroxide biosensors. The two different plant peroxidases were individually immo

Från giftiga potatisar till användbara proteiner Potatis är en av världens mest odlade grödor. Den innehåller både kolhydrater och proteiner och har ett högt näringsvärde. Det talas ofta om att det är viktigt att få i sig proteiner, men sällan om proteinets emulgerande, konsistengivande och skummande egenskaper. Dessa egenskaper är högt värderade inom livsmedelsindustrin. Traditionell odling harPotato protein is an industrial side product with highly desirable properties which can be utilized if the toxic glycoalkaloids can be removed in a gentle way which doesn’t damage the protein. The challenge within this project is to find an extraction technique efficient enough to remove the toxic glycoalkaloids, but still mild enough to preserve the protein from denaturation. Supercritical CO2 ex

Aktivt kol har identifierats som en av de mer effektiva metoderna när det kommer till att avlägsna organiska mikroföroreningar (OMF) från avloppsvatten. Aktivt kol är ett poröst material med stor ytarea som kan adsorbera andra ämnen. Det är inget som existerar naturligt utan behöver framställas. Framställningen kan ske från i princip vilket material som helst som har en hög kolhalt. En stor del avActivated carbon has been identified as one of the more effective methods of removing organic micropollutants (OMP) from wastewater. Activated carbon is a porous material with a large surface area that allows adsorption of other substances. The material does not exist naturally and therefore has to be produced. The production can be done from any carbon-rich material and today the precursor is mai

Popular Abstract in Swedish Parkinsons sjukdom är en av våra mest förekommande neurologiska sjukdomar som drabbar den åldrande befolkningen. I åldersgruppen 50-60 år drabbas ca 1 procent av sjukdomen, som karakteriseras av de motoriska symptomen stelhet, långsamma rörelser och skakningar. Symptomen beror på en gradvis förlust av nervceller i en djup del av hjärnan vid namn substantia nigra (den svL-DOPA pharmacotherapy in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is associated with adverse effects occurring after a few years of treatment. Among these, dyskinesia (abnormal involuntary movements) is particularly common and potentially disabling. The causes behind dyskinesia are not completely understood, but intense research has identified a number of neuronal alterations associated with L-DOPA-induced dyski

Östra Tommarp is the name of a small village situated outside Simrishamn in eastern Skåne. Bioagro-life is an ongoing project sponsored by the EU. The main ambition is to eliminate carbon dioxide emissions from the process of heatproduction. The project will produce a more environmental friendly alternative to present use of burners with oil as fuel. The heating of the facilities within the villag
