Müntzers dramatiska levnadsöden och hans utveckling från mystiker till karismatiker och revolutionär skildras med anknytning till de orter där han verkat.

The problem of binding of microbial cells to an adsorbent matrix during in situ recovery of bioproducts from a fermentation broth has been addressed by shielding the adsorbent with a thin layer of a non-ionic polymer. Extractive bioconversion of lactic acid by integrating ion-exchange adsorption with the fermentation stage was studied. The effect of coating of the ion-exchanger with agarose on pro

Echelle mode spectra obtained with the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph onboard the Hubble Space Telescope have been used to determine the abundances of the heavy elements Pt, Au, and Hg in the chemically peculiar HgMn-type stars kappa Cancri and chi Lupi. The abundances were determined by fitting observed line profiles with synthetically generated spectra and are found to be enhanced relative

The versatility of cuboidal Mo3S4Co clusters for the preparation of complexes with different numbers of valence shell electrons (VSE) in the cluster is described. The reaction of the geometrically incomplete cuboidal cluster salt [(eta(5)-Cp')(3)Mo3S4][pts] (pts = p-toluenesulfonate) with one molar equivalent of [Co-2(CO)(8)] afforded almost quantitatively the electroneutral 60 VSE cluster [(eta(5

The separation and characterization of salivary mucins is not straightforward because of their large size, heterogeneity, and molecular interactions. The MUC5B and MUC7 mucins are major glycoprotein components of saliva that are thought to play a vital role in maintaining oral health. MUC5B is also a major component of respiratory mucus and is produced by the tracheal and bronchial glands, while M

Questionnaire studies have indicated that patients with dental gold will more frequently have contact allergy to gold. This study aimed at investigating the relationship between contact allergy to gold and the presence and amount of dental gold alloys. A total of 102 patients were referred for patch testing because of suspicion of contact allergy. Patch tests were performed with gold sodium thiosu

The anticonvulsive effect of lidocaine was evaluated in 46 newborn infants with severe, recurrent seizures. Before the lidocaine all infants were being given phenobarbital, and 22 infants were also treated with diazepam. Different dosages of lidocaine were tested. A loading dose of 2 mg/kg followed by i.v. infusion of 6 mg/kg/hour was the most effective dosage and had an immediate anticonvulsive e

A general formalism for Metabolic Control Analysis is derived using general sensitivity analysis and structural information of the metabolic pathway inherent in the stoichiometry matrix. The equations derived provide a general procedure for calculating the control coefficients from the elasticity coefficients using matrix algebra, and is valid for any pathway stoichiometry. The procedure diminishe

Popular Abstract in Swedish Benskörhet (osteoporos) är en sjukdom som karaktäriseras av låg benmassa och försämrad benkvalitet, en sjukdom som leder till ökad risk för frakturer. Benskörhetsfrakturer uppkommer vanligen i handleder, axelleder, kotor, bäckenben, höftleder och knäleder. Frakturerna drabbar kvinnor oftare än män, något som till stor del beror på att nivåerna av det kvinnliga könshormoThe aim of this thesis was to identify the influence of calcium, physical activity and detraining on bone mass and bone size in girls and young women. We hypothesised that calcium intake above a specific level does not enhance the accrual of bone mineral, that exercise predominantly influences the skeleton in the early pubertal period and that reduced training is followed by a loss of exercise-ind

Choline acetyltransferase activity was demonstrated in the proximal part of the male rat urethra, indicating a cholinergic innervation of this tissue. The cholinergic nerve fibres emanated evidently from the pelvic nerves, since bilateral removal of the pelvic ganglion caused a major fall in the activity of this enzyme. The muscle activity of the circular layer of the proximal urethra was recorded
