Reaction of [Ru-3(CO)(12)] with tri(2-furyl)phosphine, P(C4H3O)(3), at 40 degrees C in the presence of a catalytic amount of Na[Ph2CO] furnishes two triruthenium complexes [Ru-3(CO)(10){P(C4H3O)(3)}(2)] (1) and [Ru-3(CO)(9){P(C4H3O)(3)}(3)] (2) with the ligand coordinated through the phosphorus atom. Treatment of 1 and 2 with Me3NO at 40 degrees C affords the dinuclear phosphido-bridged complexes

Background: Risk gene variants for celiac disease, identified in genome-wide linkage and association studies, might influence molecular pathways important for disease development. The aim was to examine expression levels of potential risk genes close to these variants in the small intestine and peripheral blood and also to test if the non-coding variants affect nearby gene expression levels in chi

This article discuss the consequences of the ambiguous view of children in the ethical guidelines – the ambitions to “give voice” while also “protect” – with a point of departure taken in the Swedish context, and in an actual research process of a project on children and care. It shows how the regulation of informed consent through the parent compromises the ideals of child-centred research; first

Single complex fluorescence polarization spectroscopy is applied to study the peripheral light harvesting antenna (LH2) from photosynthetic purple bacterium Rhodopseudomonas (Rps.) acidophila. The measured two-dimensional excitation-emission polarization plots are used to construct geometric representation for the absorbing B800 and emitting B850 as ellipses. The shape and orientation of the ellip

Background: Rehabilitation is effective and beneficial for patients with arthritis. The lack of a common structure for describing the content of rehabilitation makes it difficult to compare, transfer and implement research evidence into clinical practice. Objective: To develop a framework comprising domains and elements of importance when describing arthritis rehabilitation. Methods: On the basis

An improved, chemoselective hydrogenolysis method has been developed. By employing a solvent-acid combination (i.e., DMF-aq HCl) we were able to favor debenzylation rather than aromatic hydrogenation and acid-mediated bond cleavage which are the two main drawbacks of these reactions. The generality of the method, which was primarily developed as a solution to a carbohydrate problem, is shown by th

Hemoglobin (Hb) plays a critical role in human physiological function by transporting O-2. Hb is safe and inert within the confinement of the red blood cell but becomes reactive and toxic upon hemolysis. Haptoglobin (Hp) is an acute-phase serum protein that scavenges Hb and the resulting Hb-Hp complex is subjected to CD163-mediated endocytosis by macrophages. The interaction between Hb and Hp is e

The formation of planets with gaseous envelopes takes place in protoplanetary accretion discs on time scales of several million years. Small dust particles stick to each other to form pebbles, pebbles concentrate in the turbulent flow to form planetesimals and planetary embryos and grow to planets, which undergo substantial radial migration. All these processes are influenced by the underlying str

A biography of the Swedish philosopher and school teacher Emanuel Hvalgren (1827-1908).

This Letter presents a search for singly produced vector-like quarks, Q, coupling to light quarks, q. The search is sensitive to both charged current (CC) and neutral current (NC) processes, pp -> Qq -> Wqq' and pp -> Qq -> Zqq' with a leptonic decay of the vector gauge boson. In 1.04 fb(-1) of data taken in 2011 by the ATLAS experiment at a center-of-mass energy root s = 7 TeV, no evidence of suc

ALICE has unique capabilities among the LHC experiments for particle identification (PID) at mid-rapidity (vertical bar eta vertical bar < 0.9) over a wide range of transverse momentum (pT). In this proceeding(1) recent measurements of PT spectra for pi, K, K-s(0), p, and Lambda in p-Pb collisions are presented and compared to results from Pb-Pb and pp. In particular the implications for the quest

Bakgrunden till projektet var det tidigare projektet Motorfordonsförares väjningsbeteende gentemot cyklande. Syftet med detta projekt var att studera om och i så fall hur motorfordonsförares väjningsbeteende kan kopplas till trafiksäkerhetssituationen på en plats. Ett annat syfte var att genom enkäter få en bild av hur trafikanter uppfattar väjningsreglerna vid cykelöverfarter. Sju platser från de

Mixtures of methanol and acetate as carbon source were investigated in order to determine their capacity to enhance denitrification and for analysis of the microbial composition and carbon degradation activity in activated sludge from wastewater treatment plants. Laboratory batch reactors at 20 degrees C were used for nitrate uptake rate (NUR) measurements in order to investigate the anoxic activi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Deponier (soptippar) har förändrats kraftigt de senaste decennierna. Detta beror främst på ändrad lagstiftning vilken i sin tur till stor del bygger på en önskan att skydda miljön. Dock har lag¬stiftningen implementerats utan riktig kännedom om dess konsekvenser för utsläppen från deponier på lång sikt. För att öka förståelsen för konsekvenserna genomfördes det forskninWaste management in Europe has changed, mainly as a result of stricter regulations, most notably the European Landfill Directive 1999/31/EC. In Sweden, landfill tax and a ban on the landfilling of waste with total organic carbon content over 10 % have diverted large amounts of waste from landfills. The biogeochemistry of landfills has changed due to their reduced organic content. The research pres

A study of the inclusive charged hadron production in two-photon collisions is described. The data were collected with the DELPHI detector at LEP II. Results on the inclusive single-particle PT distribution and the differential charged hadrons d sigma/dp(T) cross-section are presented and compared to the predictions of perturbative NLO QCD calculations and to published results.
