  1. 11. Catalytic and Electrocatalytic Transformations with Palladium and Nickel : Scope and mechanistic investigations

    Author : Alejandro Valiente Sánchez; Belén Martín-Matute; King Kuok (Mimi) Hii; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic Chemistry; Heterogeneous Catalysis; Metal-organic frameworks; Nickel; Palladium; Electrocatalysis; Cross-coupling; Hydrogenation; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis is based on methodology development and mechanistic investigations using heterogeneous palladium and nickel catalysts. Following the introduction (Chapter 1), Chapter 2 presents a summary of the synthesis and characterization of the MOF-supported Pd catalysts (Pd @ MOF) that are used in this thesis. READ MORE

  2. 12. Cardiovascular effects of diesel exhaust : mechanistic and interventional studies

    Author : Magnus Lundbäck; Anders Blomberg; Benoit Nemery; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; air pollution; diesel exhaust; nitrogen dioxide; endothelin-1; cardiovascular effects; exhaust particle trap; Lung diseases; Lungsjukdomar; lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

    Abstract : Background: Air pollution is associated with negative health effects. Exposure to combustion-derived particulate matter (PM) air pollution has been related to increased incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory morbidity and mortality, specifically in susceptible populations. Ambient particles, with a diameter of less than 2. READ MORE

  3. 13. Water and Heat Transport in Road Structures : Development of Mechanistic Models

    Author : Klas Hansson; Lars-Christer Lundin; Kurt Roth; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrology; Water flow; Heat flow; Unsaturated flow; Freeze-thaw; Numerical models; Uncertainty analysis; Sensitivity analysis; Roads; Overland flow; Flow patterns; TDR; Water content reflectometer; Calibration; Fractures; Hydrologi; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

    Abstract : The coupled transport of water and heat, involving freezing and thawing, in the road structure and its immediate environment is important to consider for optimal design and maintenance of roads and when assessing solute transport, of e.g. de-icing salt, from roads. READ MORE

  4. 14. Mechanistic study of antiangiogenic agents in cancer therapy

    Author : Yin Zhang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Tumor growth and metastasis are dependent on angiogenesis that constantly alters the tumor microenvironment. Based on the antiangiogenic principle proposed more than 40 years ago by Dr. READ MORE

  5. 15. Mechanistic Studies on Ruthenium-Catalyzed Hydrogen Transfer Reactions

    Author : Jenny B. Åberg; Jan-Erling Bäckvall; Charles P. Casey; Stockholms universitet; []
