Lignin-degrading enzymes: an overview

Lignin is the second most abundant naturally produced organic polymer on earth. Lignin‐modifying enzymes (LMEs) are produced by the white‐rot fungi as products of secondary metabolism, since lignin degradation does not provide any energy to the fungus. The main oxidative enzymes include the peroxidases‐lignin peroxidase (LiP) (diarylpropane: oxygen, hydrogen peroxide oxidoreductase), manganese per

Flow cytometric evaluation of platelet activation in blood collected into EDTA vs. Diatube‐H, a sodium citrate solution supplemented with theophylline, adenosine, and dipyridamole

With platelet activation, there is modulation of platelet surface molecule expression. In flow cytometric analyses of in vivo platelet activation, results are often confounded by activation induced in vitro by the preparative procedures. It is particularly important therefore to prevent or retard platelet activation as soon as possible after withdrawal of the blood sample. Taking blood into parafo

The SAGA so far : Reading the history of the Galaxy with asteroseismology

Asteroseismology has the capability of delivering stellar properties which would otherwise be inaccessible, such as radii, masses and thus ages of stars. When this information is coupled with classical determinations of stellar parameters, such as metallicities, effective temperatures and angular diameters, powerful new diagnostics for stellar and Galactic studies can be obtained. The ongoing Strö

Swiss pendulous hammer for decoupling measurement of service equipment in wooden multi-storey building

The latest Swiss standard SIA181 (6-2006 edition [1]) introduces a new methodology regarding the tests to be performed in new constructions for assessing noise induced by the manipulation of service equipment in bathrooms and kitchens. However, this method has been developed especially for massive constructions. In this study, we are investigating the relevance of such method for timber frame buil

Prepatterning in the stem cell compartment

The mechanism by which an apparently uniform population of cells can generate a heterogeneous population of differentiated derivatives is a fundamental aspect of pluripotent and multipotent stem cell behaviour. One possibility is that the environment and the differentiation cues to which the cells are exposed are not uniform. An alternative, but not mutually exclusive possibility is that the obser

Lactobacillus reuteri NAD(P)H oxidase : Properties and coexpression with propanediol-utilization enzymes for enhancing 3-hydroxypropionic acid production from 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde

Lactobacillus reuteri metabolizes glycerol through propanediol-utilization (Pdu) pathway to 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) via 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA) as intermediate. In the resting cells, the oxidized co-factor obtained in the reaction is regenerated by simultaneous oxidation of 3-HPA to 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) using propionaldehyde dehydrogenase (PduP), phosphotransacylase (PduL) and

Intraabdominal and retroperitoneal soft-tissue sarcomas - Surgical treatment and outcomes

BACKGROUND: Intraabdominal and retroperitoneal sarcomas (IaRS) are malignant connective tissue tumors. Surgical resection is often the only curative treatment. The primary objective was to report the mid-term outcomes following contemporary treatment protocols and identify prognostic factors.METHODS: A retrospective review of consecutive patients (n = 107) with IaRS treated at single center from 2

Value assessment of cloud manufacturing for large-scale manufacturing organizations

This master thesis assesses the potential of Cloud Manufacturing applications in large-scale manufacturing. Firstly, this thesis determines the benefits and drawbacks of and the barriers to the implementation of Cloud Manufacturing. Secondly, five interviews were conducted with two companies that had begun implementing Cloud Manufacturing within their organizations. Lastly, Cloud Manufacturing was

Evolutionary Properties of Neural Networks: Exploration of Robustness and Evolvability in the Genotype-Phenotype Map

Evolution is a fundamental and crucial part of life that hinges on two central properties: robustness and evolvability. Robustness is required to maintain essential traits despite mutations while evolvability produces novel traits that might prove beneficial in survival. While both robustness and evolvability are necessary, embracing them simultaneously seemingly leads to an inherent conflict due

Cystektomi för blåscancer – har utfallet förbättrats?

Radical cystectomy (RC) for bladder cancer is a complex procedure with an inherent risk of complications and even postoperative mortality. Historically, RC was performed in 44 hospitals in Sweden, which gradually decreased over time, and since a formal regional centralisation of these operations in 2017, cystectomy care is currently provided by nine hospitals. In the Swedish national urinary bladd

Energianalys av en äldre industribyggnad

Den globala uppvärmningen förändrar jordens klimat i snabb takt, det är främst utsläpp av växthusgaser som exempelvis koldioxid från förbränning av fossila bränslen som är orsaken. Sverige har tagit flera steg mot en hållbar energiproduktion där 65 % av elen är förnybar, men samtidigt är fossila bränslen en betydande del. Av Sveriges totala energianvändning går 25 % till att värma upp det befintliGlobal warming is changing the Earth's climate and is mainly caused by greenhouse gas emissions from, for example, fossil fuels. Sweden's energy production consists of 65 % renewable energy, but the remaining amount comes from fossil fuels. Of Sweden's total energy production, a quarter goes to heating existing buildings. Upcoming EU directives set higher requirements for energy effici

Adopting Real Measurements to a Simulation Model for Indoor Temperature Increase at Reduced Cooling Power to Lower Power Peaks

Lately there has been an increasing focus on saving peak power in heating systems as a way to lower the environmental load past just saving energy. At the same time, active cooling is becoming increasingly interesting. Sweden has more and more cooling systems with an increase in cooling also in residential buildings. The cooling power is much more expensive than the heating power. Therefore, there

Impact of Laparoscopic Gastrectomy on the Completion Rate of the Perioperative Chemotherapy Regimen in Gastric Cancer : A Swedish Nationwide Study

Background: Omission of prescheduled chemotherapy following surgery for gastric cancer is a frequent clinical problem. This study examined whether laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) had a positive impact on compliance with adjuvant chemotherapy compared with open (OG). Methods: Patients with cT2-4aN0-3M0 adenocarcinoma treated with gastrectomy and perioperative chemotherapy between 2015 and 2020 were i

Chained Gallager codes

The ensemble of regular Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes introduced by Gallager is considered. Using probabilistic arguments a lower bound on the normalized minimum distance is derived. A new code construction, called Chained Gallager codes, is introduced as the combination of two Gallager codes and its error correcting capabilities are studied.

Structure of the vortex wake in hovering Anna's hummingbirds (Calypte anna).

Hummingbirds are specialized hoverers for which the vortex wake has been described as a series of single vortex rings shed primarily during the downstroke. Recent findings in bats and birds, as well as in a recent study on Anna's hummingbirds, suggest that each wing may shed a discrete vortex ring, yielding a bilaterally paired wake. Here, we describe the presence of two discrete rings in the wake
