Serial and time-resolved macromolecular crystallography are on the rise. However, beam time at X-ray free-electron lasers is limited and most thirdgeneration synchrotron-based macromolecular crystallography beamlines do not offer the necessary infrastructure yet. Here, a new setup is demonstrated, based on the JUNGFRAU detector and Jungfraujoch data-acquisition system, that enables collection of k
The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) does not have a specific publication or recent detailed advice on acceptability criteria and suspension levels for medical radiological equipment. However, a number of the Commission's publications clearly stress the need to carry out acceptance testing of radiological equipment. Such general recommendations are frequent in earlier and
Ammoxidation of 3-picoline to nicotinonitrile was studied on V2O5, V6O13, and V2O4 catalysts in a fixed-bed integral reactor. The activity studies showed that V6O13 was the most active and selective catalyst of the pure oxides, with a maximum yield of 76% nicotinonitrile at 365 °C. The maximum yield on V2O5 catalyst was 34%, and was obtained at a higher temperature, 458 °C. V2O4 was found to be in
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med denna studie var att: (I) undersöka förekomsten av höftartros på Island i jämförelse med södra Skandinavien, (II) utreda frekvensen av operation med total höftledsplastik (THP) för artros på Island, (III) jämföra två olika metoder för bedömning av höftartros med röntgenbilder, (IV) i en populationsbaserad studie påvisa förekomsten av ärftlighet för höftartrosHereditary factors are suggested to contribute to osteoarthritis (OA), but their relative importance is uncertain. Moreover, the underlying specific variations at the genome level remain unknown. The prevalence of hip OA in Iceland was assessed by examining colon radiographs and was found to be at least 5-fold higher compared to Sweden and Denmark. The age-standardized incidence of total hip repl
The article presents the third study of a series that has been designed to manifest consciousness and to measure developed competence. The emphasis of the main hypothesis has been put on the student’s ability to adapt to the main idea of a given story and to express his comprehension verbally. In what way the two students of the previous two experiments have been able to accomplish the experimenta
Background: A post marketing surveillance study was conducted to evaluate safety and efficacy of natalizumab in Swedish multiple sclerosis (MS) patients since its introduction in August 2006 until March 2010. Methods: Patients were registered in the web-based Swedish MS-registry at 40 locations and evaluated every 6 months. Adverse events and clinical outcomes were recorded. Results: One thousand
The quality of the periacetabular bone might be an explanation for the increase in the rate of socket loosening seen radiographically in patients with rheumatoid arthritis as compared with patients with osteoarthrosis. Early implant micromotion, as measured by roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis, is of predictive value with regard to long time retention. For uncemented porous sockets, the init
The subject of this research was to conceptualize a Museum for the Future of Design in Copenhagen. Particularly, the museum collection focuses on experimental research in design, architecture, art, and engineering. An open flat brownfield towards the sea on Refshaleøen Island was chosen as the most suitable location for the Museum. Refshaleøen is a harbour and industrial area with a plethora of n
The newly adopted Directive on Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence (CSDDD) necessitates companies operating on the internal market of the Eu-ropean Union to incorporate a risk-management regime to account for their businesses’ effects on, inter alia, human rights. To the backdrop of an increasing fragmentation of laws on the internal market, CSDDD introduces obligations for companies to identif
Problem - Uncertainty greatly burdens innovation in tech-driven industries which has made decision-making an art-like navigation, especially within the Fuzzy Front End of operations. This has motivated previous researchers to study the effectual decision-making principles originated by Sarasvathy in regard to a wide variety of audiences such as entrepreneurs, start-ups and top management. Employee
Reproductive rights are an immanent part of human rights. In this thesis, I have conducted seven semi-structured interviews with Polish pro-choice and pro-abortion activists. Through the lens of multiple methods including interviews, participant observation, reflexivity, analysis of online and offline data I addressed questions on the activists’ perception of their roles and their assessment of th
For a level scheme investigation of Gd-142 an experiment with the gamma -spectrometer EUROBALLIII has been carried out and lifetimes have been measured with EUROBALL IV using the Doppler-shift attenuation method. The high-spin states have been populated in these experiments by means of the(99)Ru(Ti-48, 2p3n) reaction at a beam energy of 240MeV and the Sn-114(S-32, 2p2n) reaction at 160MeV, respect
In democracies, elections are events in which the public evaluates not only the promises for the coming years, but also the actions of the past period. When an incident adversely affects the welfare of all or part of a society, such as an economic crisis or a natural disaster, the general expectation according to the retrospective voting theory is that society will punish those responsible through
Abstract Background Swedish foods have difficulty competing against imported food that has different cost scenarios. Food price inflation has today led to a major focus on low cost for consumers. This focus has created a risk of lower food quality for consumers and lower profitability for the food industry. Target To develop a principled business model with a focus on identifying realizable value
