    Abstract : The exposure to isocyanates is more of an occupational problem than a consumer problem. The main route of exposure is assumed to be through inhalation. Isocyanates that have high vapor pressure, such as TDI, can be airborne at room temperature. Other isocyanates such as MDI are volatile only when heated. READ MORE

    Abstract : Efficient waste management enables the protection of human health, reducing environmental pollution, saving of natural resources, and achieving sustainable and profitable management of energy. In many countries, the general guidelines for waste management are set by national or local waste management plans. READ MORE

  3. 3. Biochemical biomarkers at the site of inflammation and in peripheral blood

    Author : Anja Finn; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Biochemical biomarkers are small molecular species, naturally varying or experimentally induced, which are measurable in body fluids and which may provide alternative or complementary tools to describe disease processes or to assess responses to pharmacological treatment. The focus of this thesis is inflammatory biomarkers, mediators, chemokines and cytokines that attract immune cells and that regulate the course of the inflammatory process at the site of inflammation.

  5. 5. TERMINAL FLOWER2, the Arabidopsis HETEROCHROMATIN PROTEIN1 Homolog, and its Involvement in Plant Development

    Author : Katarina Landberg; Annika Sundås Larsson; Peter Engström; Ove Nilsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Biology; Arabidopsis; HETEROCHROMATIN PROTEIN1; flowering; meristem; auxin; Biologi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the characterization of the Arabidopsis thaliana mutant terminal flower2 (tfl2), the cloning of the corresponding gene, and the analysis of TFL2 function in plant development. The tfl2 mutant is pleiotropic, exhibiting early floral induction in both long and short day conditions, a terminating inflorescence and dwarfing. READ MORE
