6. Vancomycin resistant enterococci in Swedish broilers : emergence, epidemiology and elimination
Abstract : Vancomycin resistance enterococci (VRE) are an important cause of nosocomial infections. Presence of VRE in farm animals constitute a reservoir of resistance that can spread to humans via the food-chain and is due to extensive use of the growth promoter avoparcin conferring cross-resistance to vancomycin.

7. Power System Operation Planning and Wind Power Curtailment : Efficient Methods for Power System Scheduling and Integration Studies of Variable Renewable Energy
Abstract : To reduce carbon dioxide emissions, variable renewable energy (VRE) sources are replacing conventional fossil-based power plants for electricity generation. Due to the variability and uncertainty of weather dependent VRE sources, there can be situations when it is not possible to accommodate all the available VRE production, and VRE sources have to be curtailed.

8. Balancing variable renewable electricity generation using combined heat and power plants, large-scale heat pumps, and thermal energy storages in Swedish district heating systems
Abstract : The global ambitions to hamper the greenhouse effect has led to ambitious targets for increasing renewable energy use. This, in combination with recent years' vast development of wind and solar power, implies that there will be significant amounts of variable renewable electricity (VRE) in future energy systems.

9. Population structure and antibiotic resistance of the genus enterococcus in humans, animals and the environment
Abstract : Enterococci belong to the normal intestinal flora of humans and animals. An increased prevalence of antibiotic resistant enterococci causing nosocomial infections has drawn attention to the epidemiology and emergence of antibiotic resistance in this genus. READ MORE

10. Fluidized bed plants for heat and power production in future energy systems
Abstract : Fluidized bed (FB) plants are used for heat and power production in several energy systems around the world, with particular importance in systems using large shares of renewable solid fuel, e.g., biomass. READ MORE
