  2. 1. Azoles and Contaminants in Treated Effluents Interact with CYP1 and CYP19 in Fish

    Author : Kristina Beijer; Ingvar Brandt; Björn Brunström; Henner Hollert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Azole; fungicide; chemical; CYP1A; CYP19; EROD; aromatase; effluent; STP; wastewater; fish; stickleback; rainbow trout; Biologi med inriktning mot ekotoxikologi; Biology with specialization in Environmental Toxicology;

    Abstract : Numerous contaminants are present in mixtures in the aquatic environment. Among these are the azoles, a group of chemicals that includes both pharmaceuticals and pesticides. Azole fungicides are designed to inhibit lanosterol 14-demethylase (cytochrome P450 (CYP) 51), while other azoles are intended to inhibit aromatase (CYP19), i.e. READ MORE

  4. 2. Genome dynamics and virulence in the human pathogen Candida glabrata

    Author : Khadija Mohamed Ahmad; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Pathogenic yeast; Candida glabrata; small chromosomes; Genome rearrangement; Haploid and diploid yeast; RNA interference.;

    Abstract : Although the yeast Candida glabrata is considered to be a part of the commensal microflora in healthy individuals, during the last years it has been frequently isolated from patients with mucosal and systemic fungal infections. Now it is considered as the second most frequently isolated pathogenic yeast after Candida albicans. Despite its name, C. READ MORE

  5. 3. New Electrolyte Materials for Lithium Batteries and Fuel Cells - an ab initio and vibrational spectroscopy study

    Author : Henrik Markusson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; IR spectroscopy; lithium salts; Raman spectroscopy; ab initio calculations; electron structure calculations; protic ionic liquids; electrolytes;

    Abstract : In order to reduce our fossil based energy consumption there is an urge for new energy storage and conversion devices such as lithium batteries and fuel cells for more efficient energy use. The heart of these devices is an ion conducting electrolyte which needs to provide high performance at low cost. READ MORE
