We report a case of a 5-year-old child who suffered an oral allergy syndrome and lip angiedema after eating grapes. We obtained a positive prick test with commercial grape extract and a positive prick-by-prick test with pulp and peel of fresh white grape (Moscatel variety) and pulp and peel of blue grape. Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by immunoblotting reveale

This article traces the reception of the the Swedish film Ingeborg Holm in 1913. The film created a fierce debate regarding the Swedish poor laws. This debate eventually led to changes in the law in 1918.

This study reports findings from the first large-scale experiment investigating whether entrepreneurs differ 1 from other people in their willingness to expose themselves to various forms of uncertainty. A stratified random sample of 700 chief executive officers from the Yangzi delta region in China is compared to 200 control group members. Our findings suggest that in economic decisions, entrepre

Background: The secreted enzyme EndoS, an endoglycosidase from Streptococcus pyogenes, hydrolyzes the N-linked glycan of the constant region of immunoglobulin G (IgG) heavy chain and renders the antibody unable to interact with Fc receptors and elicit effector functions. In this study we couple targeted allelic replacement mutagenesis and heterologous expression to elucidate the contribution of En

During the past years Enterprise 2.0 has become widely spread among organization. However is there not enough awareness in the organizations concerning the necessary organizational changes which companies need to address when planning for the shift to Enterprise 2.0. In this study we aim to indentify solutions for success which affect if an Enterprise 2.0 implementation will succeed or not and how

A parsimonious set of mechanisms explains how and under which conditions behavioral deviations build into cascades that reshape institutional frameworks from the bottom up, even if institutional innovations initially conflict with the legally codified rules of the game. Specifically, we argue that this type of endogenous institutional change emerges from an interplay between three factors: the uti

Modification of the resonance fluorescence spectrum of a two-level atom driven by a monochromatic field in the close proximity of a plasmonic nanostructure (metal sphere) is studied in detail. It is shown that one can control this spectrum by varying several key parameters: (i) the radius of the nanosphere, (ii) polarization of the incident radiation, and (iii) the atom's location around the nanos

In 2011 the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) released new data for the streamflow in the Columbia River. This extends the previous database record (1928-1999) to include the last nine years (1999-2008). Thomson Reuters Point Carbon are using this database to apply their proprietary hydrological HBV-type energy model in the Columbia River and therefore need a complete understanding of the

I denna analys undersöker vi Sverigedemokraternas valframgång i kommunvalet i Landskrona 2006. Vi använder oss av tre olika sorters material: artiklar och insändare från Landskronaposten, valmaterial från de efter valet fyra största partierna, samt kvalitativa intervjuer med folkvalda och civilsamhällegrupper. Studien är hypotesprövande, där vi utifrån tre teser undersöker vårt material. Vi studer

IntroductionPrevious work from our group demonstrated that pregnant mice exposed to marijuana smoke presented reduced fetal and neonatal outcomes including reduced birthweight and increased placental weight. To further characterize the possible placental mechanisms underlying these observations, the present study evaluated placental morphology, function and molecular markers in the same experiment

Scapolite-bearing orthogneisses underlying the Proterozoic Varena Iron Ore Deposit, eastern Lithuania, the western East European Craton, represent the development of a sodic alteration zone. Scapolite chemistry records fluid salinity increase with temperature, reaching its maximum at temperatures of ∼750 °C. Fluid-mineral reactions controlled the fluid KCl/NaCl ratio, enabling partial melting at p

Existing studies concerning private labels are unclear as to whether private label manufacturers carry out product development themselves. Furthermore, there is a lack of studies comparing product development processes in private label companies and national brand manufacturers. This study highlights a set of critical product development factors and assesses their prevalence in four different comp

Preeclampsia, a common complication of pregnancy, contributes significantly to maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. It may lead to both quantitative and qualitative defects of maternal and neonatal platelets. In this prospective study, flow cytometry has been used to study expression of platelet-surface glycoproteins (GPs) on maternal and neonatal platelets of both healthy and preeclamptic

Propionic acid (PA) is a naturally occurring short chain fatty acid produced by microbial fermentation of the indigestible foods in the intestine, having a positive effect on the gastrointestinal health. PA inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria and molds; hence it is widely used as preservative for food, feed and grains. It is also used as a component in several industrial products like polym

Migraines constitute a common neurological and headache disorder affecting around 15% of the world’s population. In addition to other mechanisms, neurogenic neuroinflammation has been proposed to play a part in migraine chronification, which includes peripheral and central sensitization. There is therefore considerable evidence suggesting that inflammation in the intracranial meninges could be a k

A phenomenological study of the isolated photon production in high energy pp and pA collisions at RHIC and LHC energies is performed. Using the color dipole formalism, we investigate the impact of the saturation effects on the production cross sections considering three different phenomenological models for the universal dipole cross section. Predictions for the rapidity dependence of the ratio of

Mixed species charge and baryon balance functions are computed based on proton-proton (pp) collisions simulated with the PYTHIA8 model. Simulations are performed with selected values of the collision energy s and the Monash tune and the ropes and shoving modes of PYTHIA8 to explore whether such measurements provide useful new information and constraints on mechanisms of particle production in pp c
